How my kids sleep safely and a GIVEAWAY

in Lifestyle, Parenting

How my kids sleep safely with @Halosleepsack #Halosleepsack #Halosafesleep | spotofteadesigns.com

DISCLOSURE: I was compensated with a product sample by HALO Innovations for this post, but the opinions are all mine! Some of the links in this post contain affiliate links, which come at no cost to you. Know that I only promote products I personally use and stand behind. To learn more about my affiliates, please review my disclosure policy.

I know I don’t usually post two days in a row but today I have good reason… it’s my birthday! While it is my big day, it’s YOU, dear readers, that will receive the gift! (well at least one of you). I’ve teamed up with one of my favorite baby safety brands, HALO Innovations, to offer a fun giveaway!

How my kids sleep safely with @Halosleepsack #Halosleepsack #Halosafesleep | spotofteadesigns.com

Why HALO Innovations you ask? Because both my girls have and Hailey still enjoys their SleepSacks, or wearable blankets and I want to make more parents aware of their awesomeness!

To sum it up:

  • Babies wearing HALO SleepSacks can’t kick off their wearable blanket nor will it ever cover their face. Hailey is 6 months old now and much more active at night. While we always put her down on her back (as the embroidered front reminds you that back is best) she’s now enjoying catching some shut eye as a side sleeper, as seen above.  I know that she’s always toasty warm (without over heating) and never under an array of blankets when wearing her SleepSack!

  • They have plenty of legroom for safe swaddling and are considered “Hip Healthy.” Babies love to kick and these SleepSacks are quite roomy to allow for this fun!
  • They have an inverted zipper which is great for middle of the night diaper changes. No need to completely undress a baby at night and wake them too much!

  • HALO makes different SleepSack styles so these wearable blankets can grow with your kids. Brielle wore the SleepSack Swaddle, regular SleepSack and EarlyWalker styles. My favorite style was our HALO SleepSack Swaddle, given to us by our hospital, and one Hailey wore from day 1 at home. The SleepSack Swaddle style has 3 swaddle options – arms in, arms out or hands-to-face to allow for different soothing options for baby. You can see our sleeping beauty rocking it in the photo above with arms in, when she was only 3 weeks old. I hated to say goodbye to this style as she slept so well those first few weeks as a newborn!

Oh and did I mention they have some super cute prints these days? Many of the photos seen above showcase Hailey in one of their new muslin Sleepsacks in a grey tree leaf print. They also make our favorite SleepSack Swaddle types in these adorable muslin prints, which would make a great gift for a mom-to-be!

    Becoming a FTM on July 24th. Definitely nervous but there’s a lot to learn and i’ve really enjoyed some of your past articles.

    Adorable patterns but since we are waiting to find out the sex of the baby i think the SleepSack 100% cotton muslin wearable blanket in giraffe yellow is a nice neutral

Some highlights of what my yard produced this year Some highlights of what my yard produced this year:
🎃 Gourds - currently 42 harvested and drying, but tons more coming!
🌞 Yellow Roses - these 2 plants bloom at least 4 times in spring and summer!
🍅 Tomatoes - tons of Roma and Supersweet 100 breeds used for appetizers, sauces and salads. Happy to grow and to gift these away!
🧄 Garlic - planted last fall and harvested in June. Doing this again this October! Should I also do onions?
💜 Lavender - The bees love them. I missed the window to dry them but putting that on my list to try next year. Would you want a little satchel of lavender? 
🥒 Cucumbers - slice it up and add some sea salt. Yum!

Our group of 2 adults and 5 kids were hosted by TreeTopQuestPhilly and enjoyed a sunny Saturday exploring obstacles, climbing and ziplining and we'd highly recommend this park! 
.
Here some key details to know before you go:
- The staff is super knowledgable, friendly and patient with climbers of all abilities, but it is self paced where you are in control of your own equipment. 
- You attend an equipment fitting, safety instruction and practice course before you climb 
- Expect to spend the full 2.5 hours of your reservation and you likely won't need sunglasses in this shady spot
- Gloves are an optional purchase, but we didn't get them and no one got any blisters
- There are 4 levels of courses with Level 4 being for those 12+ only. It's HIGH but thrilling to those willing to check it out! 
- Porta potties and lockers are available at the check in area and there are plenty of benches and picnic tables to sit at in the park. Spectators are free to watch from below. 
.
PROMO CODE: Use code SPOTOFTEADESIGNS for 15% off your online ticket order to climb!

Special thanks to @wildercrafting who shared this tip YEARS ago, and I still use it when creating my simple banners.

You can start this fall with garlic! You start planting them in the fall, and you'll enjoy them by summer.
