BornFit Giveaway for Active Mamas!

[photopress:BornFit.jpg,full,pp_image]Last month, my neighbor Monica and I took our babies hiking. She looked like she had just stepped off The Runway for Cute Activewear while I wore a scruffy pair of yoga pants. “I bought this skort last year from my friend’s company,” she raved. “What company?” “BornFit! Have you ever heard of them?” As it turns out, I had. Just a few weeks prior, the company’s publicist had contacted me about doing a giveaway for Mile High Mamas. I’m not sure if this was a huge coincidence or if everyone besides me is wearing BornFit. Either way, I view it as a sign. If you’re one of the few who is not “in the know,” BornFit is an innovative apparel collection that creates athletic wear for moms of...

1,001 Ways to Say Poop and The Wildlife Experience Ticket Giveaway!

Editor’s Note: This post is a part of a giveaway for tickets to The Wildlife Experience. Contest details are at the end. [photopress:grossology7.jpg,full,pp_image] My six-year-old son studied the piles of rubber poop and photos of animals. Different shapes, colors, and sizes represented the astonishing diversity of found on forest floors and sometimes in our own backyards. His task? To match poop and producer, scat and species, dookie and the dropper. Is it a little weird that when he scored 100%, I briefly considered the news worthy of our Christmas newsletter? Our recent visit to The Wildlife Experience’s brand-new exhibit, Animal Grossology, was filled with this kind of icky-good fun. We wound our way through the displays, games, and interactive learning opportunities eager ...

Ultra Cool (or for when it’s hot) Attachables Clothing Giveaway

[photopress:LAF_Rocks_Tshirt___Pink_Mic___Flat.jpg,full,pp_image]Here’s the thing about autumn: I love the changing colors but not the temperamental temperatures. And though I relish the cooler climate, the unpredictable weather sends me into a tizzy when trying to dress my children in the morning. That is why I fell in love with LAF Brand’s Attachables™ Clothing. With removable sleeves, these great shirts help your infant, toddler or preschooler always dress right. When it’s cold, put the sleeves on, or when it’s hot, simply take the sleeves off! The sleeves attach by Velcro and only the soft side will touch your child’s skin. I am a big fan of the convenience and my kids love the styles.

Guess the Pumpkin’s Weight, Win Four Tickets to Elitch’s Fright Fest 2008!

[photopress:MHMpumpkin.jpg,full,pp_image]I am married to a man who is obsessed with growing The Great Pumpkin. The end of the growing season is near and the weigh-off showcasing Colorado’s biggest pumpkins is on September 28th at Jared’s Nursery in Littleton. To try to make sense of the madness, I am kicking off Mile High Mamas’ Halloween season by offering four tickets to Elitch’s Fright Fest to the person who is the closest to guessing his pumpkin’s weight. Because I am a nice wife and want to help promote his obsession. But mostly I just want to get him off my back. The only thing scarier than the amount of time he has spent nurturing his orange monstrosity is when Elitch Gardens transforms from theme park to “scream” park in October. From haunted houses to...

Belle Baby Carrier Giveaway!

[photopress:bellecarrier.jpg,full,pp_image]If the Olympics are inspiring you to get up and go, Mile High Mamas has the perfect giveaway for you…even with baby in tow! I first stumbled upon Belle Baby Carriers at a baby expo a few months ago. This Boulder-owned company launched locally just two years ago and since then has grown to serve more than 200 domestic retail outlets and can be purchased in eight different countries. What makes it so popular? Unlike other baby carriers and baby slings, the Belle Baby Carrier distributes your baby’s weight to your hips instead of your back and shoulders, and it positions your baby in a proper, ergonomic position that supports your baby’s developing spine.
