You can order your diapers, wipes and pretty much anything you need from Amazon.com- and if your order qualifies for Super Saver Shipping - you won't have to pay for shipping (which we highly recommend).

G Diapers -GiveAway!

~LOVE AT FIRST FLUSH~
G Diapers Starter Kit
Personalize your Bum



A few months ago A Savvy Baby featured G-Diapers!
Since we featured G-Diapers they are now available at Target!
Target is always adding "GREEN" companies and ECO Friendly companies so we were so excited to see them add G-Diapers.
Since our post we have been in contact with G-Diapers and they are even gaining FAME in Hollywood. Julia Roberts was just recently quoted saying:

“I use Seventh Generation [chlorine-free, nontoxic] diapers for Finn and Hazel, and then I was turned on to the [plastic-free, flushable] gDiapers. Henry’s got a gDiaper on.… I would recommend them overall. It is flushable, but you’ve got to stir that thing! If you don’t really break it all the way up, it doesn’t go all the way down"
So in the spirit of our Diaper Week G-Diapers has graciously offered one A Savvy Baby reader a G-Diaper Starter Kit (1st photo above)
So we are so excited to offer this giveaway as we really feel that every little thing you can do to be Green and Eco Friendly will help our Earth!
So...if you have wanted to try G-Diapers and you are trying to be a little more Green then we encourage to
with G Diapers in the subject line and tell us why you want to make the switch to G-Diapers!
Good Luck and stay tuned for more Diaper related topics and giveaways this week!

A Savvy Tip - Hidden Treasures


All new moms think they need every gadget under the sun.  Why would we think any different? The magazines and websites we read tell us we need a swing that rocks forward and backwards and side to side - we need a jumper to keep our kids legs strong - and on and on!  
Well, very quickly you find out that some of these things are wonderful and you'd even give a limb if it broke.  And...then others don't even get a fair shake.  What do you do with these brand new items?  Sell them!  Craigslist.com is a wonderful resource for new moms.  You can sell everything baby.  And...you can buy things you didn't want to pay full price for.  
Plus, while you're shopping for your little one, take a spin for yourself and see if you can find a hidden treasure for yourself, too.

A Savvy Tip - Make Your Baby a Whole Baby


After years of Whole Foods envy, a store finally opened near my home.  Now all of those out of town trips where I would visit a Whole Foods have ended.  I can get in my car and within 10 minutes be in my own store!

As a new mother, I hit the panic button on exposing my new infant to chemicals and weird processed foods.  Whole Foods has come to the rescue.  In addition to the baby foods and products they offer in their store, they also offer an online resource called "Whole Baby."
Please visit this site and give us your feedback.  We would like to hear if you found this to be as useful as we have. Emails us at  A Savvy Baby  
and let us know.
Enjoy!

Bella Morgan Boutique...WINNER!!!!

The winner for Bella Morgan Boutique is:

Serena & Lily.....Giveaway!!!!





A few months ago we introduced you to Serena & Lily.
Serena & Lily is a children's line and they are located in children's stores all over the United States and Canada.



A chance meeting on an October day in 2003 seemed rather serendipitous at the time: Serena Dugan, a textile designer and artist, met Lily Kanter, a baby boutique owner and savvy businesswoman. Perhaps it was our differences that brought us together – our skills and backgrounds were opposite one another in that advantageous, yin-yang kind of way. Or maybe it was our striking similarities despite these differences – the collision of two go-getter Type-A scatterbrains.

In retrospect, it wasn’t simply the advantageous fit of designer with businesswoman that made sparks fly that day – it was our shared aesthetic and shared vision of the baby’s room reinvented. Children’s spaces that are fresh and style-driven, with dynamic color and pattern combination, timeless and comfortable through sophistication and simplicity…this is what we both dreamed of.

Our first collections were released 8 months later: 14 bedding sets, 30 original fabric patterns, and a look for the nursery that turned the industry on its side. As we continue to add to the line and expand into children’s furnishings, we bring the same passion, gusto, and nonsensical drive that brought our first collection to market. As our products evolve, our design values stay the same: to maintain a sense of integrity and a visual standard that is authentic and original in a sea of copycats.

At the end of a long and hectic day, we ask ourselves what continues to drive us. The answer is simple – far beyond our love of great design, we care about making a difference in the world. We are doing that through ‘Serena & Lily.’ Through a portion of product sales, we give back to the world that our children will inherit. These are the fundamental values that guide us, and the conviction that fuels the growth of our business.

…and even at the end of that long and hectic day, simply put, we love what we do.

A Savvy Baby loves what we do too and we are so excited to share that Serena & Lily are doing a giveaway!
They are giving away a Serena & Lily friend to one lucky A Savvy Baby reader!!!

and tell us what your favorite item on Serena & Lily.
Make sure you put Serena & Lily in the subject line!!!

Please Note you will have till Sunday (9.7.08) at Midnight to enter the contest!
The winner for this drawing will be announced on Monday, September 8th.

Enjoy!

Flip & Tumble Giveaway


So each week A Savvy Baby is featuring either a Green Company or a way you can go GREEN in your own daily lives!
Last week we had such a huge success with our B. Happy Bags that we searched for another fabulous bag company and we came across Flip & Tumble!
These bags are so great as most of the time your reusable bag can be bulky and they don't store very well. Well Flip & Tumble has solved those issues! They start out this small.

They then look this fabulous!
So many great fun colors!
Super Stylish.....Notice the Flip and Tumbles on the tables.
& they can accommodate all these items!!!

Here are some fun facts about Flip & Tumble....

What’s so great about compact reusable bags?
Compact reusable bags make it a lot easier to always keep a bag with you, so you don’t actually have to “remember” to bring a bag. This makes them perfect for those unexpected shopping trips.

How is flip & tumble’s 24-7 bag different from other reusable bags?

The 24-7 bag has been designed to be with you all the time. Really, all the time. That’s why the bag has a casual go anywhere, do anything style. We wanted the bag to work well for the grocery store, or a day of shopping in the city, but we also wanted people to feel good about carrying the 24-7 bag into a nice restaurant, or even a night at the movies.

Should I use the 24-7 bag for all my reusable bag needs?
Probably not. We think that there are lots of great reusable bags out there. We think our bag makes the perfect one bag to keep with you all the time, but you may want additional reusable bags as well for larger planned shopping trips.


Are flip & tumble’s bags ecologically sound?
A reusable bag can easily save over 1000 plastic bags in its lifetime, but there’s a catch.

This only works if the reusable bag gets used. Unfortunately, too many reusable bags wind up in the back of a closet. We’ve put a lot of time into considering the needs and lifestyles of real people, so your 24-7 bag won’t be making friends with the dust bunnies.

What happens to my bag once its useful life is over?
We didn’t think it was right that our bags should wind up in a landfill after years of dutifully hauling stuff. Just send your bag back to us, and we’ll recycle it.

What’s your return and warranty policy?
We want you to be happy with your bag. If for any reason you’re not, just contact us within 30 days of purchase and we’ll issue you a full refund.

The 24-7 bag comes with a 1 year limited warranty against defects in material and workmanship.


****************NOW THE GIVEAWAY**********************************
Flip and Tumble is giving away 2 Flip & Tumble Bags to one lucky A Savvy Baby Reader!!!

So please tell us which color you love and why!

Email us  with Flip & Tumble in the subject line.
