Posted September 2nd, 2010 by admin. Comment (1).
Bebe Paluzza is hosting a huge maternity, baby and toddler expo at Hy-Vee hall September 18th (10 – 5pm) and 19th (11 – 4pm).  The first 50 moms to arrive each day get a free bag with $500 worth of stuff! There will also be a Zumba basic class and lots of exhibitors showing off new products.  If you want your kids to participate in a princess tea party or boys pirate party, RSVP to missy@indybabyexpo.com.  There’s even going to be a tailgate lounge with videogames and tvs for the guys.  I’ll try to get Jeremy to do the Daddyathon stroller obstacle race because the winner gets a Brixtax stroller!  Check out the full press release HERE.  It’s free for kids under 12 and $4 for eveyone else.  Unless you win that is!
How do you win? Leave a comment telling us what you craved the most when you were pregnant! Â Winner will be chosen at random on September 12.
Thanks to Bebe Paluzza for sponsoring this giveaway and for two tickets for myself. Â I’ll be there!

I shop at Fareway quite often and they saran wrap their produce.  I’m starting to save them and use them as needed.  So far it’s worked great!  Is there packaging on products you buy that you could reuse?
