Facebook, Twitter & a Giveaway

***THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED***

I am postponing this week's Future Project Friday to discuss a few {blog} housekeeping issues. Future Project Friday will resume at its normally scheduled time next Friday. Now on to some fun stuff (not the Future Project Friday isn't fun ☺)!

Does everybody know that I'm on Facebook and Twitter (@thispresentlife)? I've had my Facebook page for some time but I'm pretty new to the world of Twitter. I've been having a lot of fun with both of these social networking outlets and I post to both accounts daily. So if you can't get enough of me (ha ha ha!), come on over and join me on Facebook and Twitter!

Secondly, I am so happy to say that I've hit 400 followers! I am so excited about this milestone I figured it deserved a little giveaway. I've been trying to figure out how to repay all of you awesome followers and here's what I've come up with. I am happy to give one lucky winner a $20 credit to go toward anything in my store. But wait, there's more! I don't want to exclude those of you without little ones to shop for, so I am also going to offer a $20 gift card to my favorite store...Target! I know that's not a very "bloggy" gift, but the way I look at it is this, who couldn't use $20 to shop at Target?

So here are the rules...

1) Leave me a comment telling me you are already happily following the blog or are a new follower (yay!). And tell me what you'd choose if you won.
2) Leave me an extra comment telling me you're now following me on Twitter (leave your @name so I can follow you back!).
3) Leave me another comment telling me you Like "Happy Baby Designs" on Facebook.
4) You get an extra entry if you blog, Tweet or Facebook about the giveaway. Just leave me a comment letting me know!

And please be sure you either have an email attached to your Blogger profile, or leave it in the comments...otherwise I won't be able to notify you when you've won!

I will announce the winner next Friday! Good luck to you all! And thanks to all of you that helped me reach 400!!!

    Hi! I've been a blog follower for a couple of months now. If I won, my first choice would be the Target giftcard because I don't have kids, but if I won the giveaway for your shop I'd be happy too because everything is so cute and I could use it as baby shower gifts.

    I am a follower and I would pick the car playmat...so cute. I have two girls, but I think they would even think it was fun. They play with cars every now and then, but this would be fun on the go. :)
