I have been lamenting our need of a bib overhaul and the cost that would mean for us and began looking for an alternative. Enter Mommin’ It Up (I don’t know this woman but I LOVE reading her blog) and her entry for Works for Me Wednesdays. She talked about how her daughter won’t keep her bib on and she found this product called Bebe Belay. I get excited – this is the answer to my dilemma!

It’s an adjustable clip that you can put on ANYTHING to use it as a bib, i.e. dish cloths, wash cloths, the nearest discarded t-shirt – whatever. I went to the website and got ready to order them when I realized that I could probably find it elsewhere for less $$. I went to Ebay – nothing. And then I thought of Etsy, and LOOK . . .

1/2 the price, 1/4 the shipping cost and the money goes to a SAHM in Philly who is working to help her husband. Yeah!

Think these might be useful around your house? Go visit Karyn at her Etsy shop: The Diaper Bag Wrangler.

If you ask Little what happens when she turns four, she will tell you that “I’m gonna stop suckin’ my thumb.” Have I told you this already? Anyway, this Bite Free came in the mail today. I got it from a website for free (only had to pay shipping and handling). The website is called Costszero.com and there is very little to choose from, but I had been praying about what I was going to do to help Little kick the habit. My mom put yucky tasting stuff on my thumb and she said by the second day I was over it! (I remember putting my yucky tasting thumb in my mouth and not being able to spit enough to get the taste to go away.) So, I was looking online for suggestions of what to use, saw this, and the same day it popped up as being added at costszero.com . Thank you Jesus!

Now I turn to trusting Him to use it for it’s purpose – bye bye thumb sucking!
