Chelsea Kaplan’s Musings About Life... After Birth
Posted by Chelsea on May 28, 2009
Beginning May 27 and running through June 10, pediped Footwear will host their third annual Purchases with Purpose fundraiser to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation. During this period, select styles of both their oh-so-adorable Originals (for babies) and Flex (for toddlers and preschoolers) shoes will be marked down do super-cheap prices (some are only $19!). Fifty percent of sales from this fundraiser will be donated to the charity to help grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions.
I recommend moving on this because not only is this a fundraiser supporting a fantastic cause, but pediped very rarely marks down the price of their shoes. Last year, the company raised more than $111,000 to help grant 15 wishes and has aspirations of surpassing that figure in 2009. Help them do so by visiting www.pediped.com and outfitting your kids’ feet in their super-cute shoes.
If you purchase a pair of shoes in this promotion, shoot me an email at chelsea@themomtourage.com with the style(s) you picked! The first five readers who send me an email with the shoes they purchased will win a pair of pedipeds of their choice!

The Kiefer Cottage
Meet the Kiefers: a quirky, lovable family of five on a quest to transform their 1940s Kansas City bungalow into the house of their dreams. The budget is small, the dreams are big, the creativity is inspiring. Check them out - you can thank us later. Happy reading, everybody!
Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day® All Purpose Cleaner
I don't understand gals who claim to loooove cleaning. That said, I do get a certain joy from using Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day® All Purpose Cleaner to care for my home. You can't lose with this stuff...it is hard-working & earth-friendly, and will leave your abode smelling like a day spa instead of a chemical spill. Try Lemon Verbena in the kitchen and Basil in the bathroom. At only $7.99 a bottle, you can afford to pick up both!
True Blood
Um, does this even need a caption? Doubtful, but let me just say that this is the hottest hour on television. Vampires are seriously sexy (especially Eric), and on this show you get to see a lot of them--if you get what I mean. Put the kids to bed and flip the channel to HBO on Sundays at 9 p.m. to taste the fun that is True Blood.
Valentino Bow Thong Sandals
So comfy and feminine, I know I'd wear them all summer. But dang, that much money for jellies? Possibly worth the splurge. $275, nordstrom.com
New Balance Kids’ Sneakers in wide sizes
My boys have wide feet, which means finding cute shoes for them is tough. These, however, rock. Prices vary, visit nbwebexpress.com to purchase.
Zoya “Laurie” Nail Polish
This sheer pink polish is, without question, the PERFECT nude pink. Plus, the polish is free of formaldehyde, toluene, camphor and dibutyl phthalate (read: yucky crap that isn't really safe for prego gals). $6, enailsupply.com.

Hi Chelsia, thanks for giving us a chance to serve the needy-for a noble cause.
Chris.
Thanks for info- I really love this site!
I would love to wear them but unfortunately they seems to be girls shoes right?
It’s a precise and informative article. Things are formed symptom less. Get to know lot’s of artifact which were unbeknownst to me. It’s truly one of the most facilitative article I get ever read. Thanks for to percentage sensing for author from you. Symmetrical I bookmarked this diplomat as asymptomatic for to get supply from it in incoming.
I agree with your criteria, and since I have been through this process myself, the name should also make this shopper feel special and proud. So It’d be a good idea to think of some adjectives and use a thesaurus for its synonyms. i would suggest somethings on the line of the word ‘Royal’ since globally that’s the one aspect that India has been famous for their kings etc and maharajahs. Other synonyms of ‘Royal’ could be ‘Majestic’ or ‘Imperial’.
yes they are for girls! where can we get something similar for mens?
do you really want such things for men? i would presume that these would look good only on females
Not so much of a shock that Froot Loops, xenical
Cocoa Krispies and Cap’n Crunch are on the list - isn’t everything that tastes that good total crap for your bod? The Kashi on the “bad” list, though….that shocked me. Thank God my son’sbuy soma
Kashi Go Lean is still OK.
Some professional SEO’s pay attention to Google’s PageRank and some don’t. In my experience it doesn’t hurt to have a high Google PageRank. It’s a nice little benchmark to let you know how important Google sees your web page as. You can improve your PageRank by following the tips above and building-up quality backlinks. If you want to learn how PageRank works, Smashing Magazine has a very good article.
