Go Organic! Why? Well, when it comes to our little ones, organic clothing means two things:
(1) Your baby is much more sensitive than you--not only their delicate skin but also their systems such as their respiratory (breathing) system. Remember this when considering that millions of dollars are spent every year on pesticides that infect our crops; some of those chemicals which are cancer-causing. Yikes!
(2) Organic cotton is grown and harvested using methods that have a low impact on the environment.
So, not only are you making a difference for your little lambchop, you're impacting your world. How great does that feel?

My number one place to go for organic children's clothing is Organically Grown. Their new line is fantastic and just in time for spring!

Their Little Lion set is aimed at little boys...

...while their Garden Fun is a bit more feminine.

Lucky for us, not only do they have cutie baby clothes, they also have clothes and accessories for men, women, and kids, not to mention decor for your child's room. How can you go wrong?


Now it's your turn! Organically Grown is graciously giving one reader their own organic onesie!

One of my favorite stores in the world is Family Christian Store. I love their selection of gifts, books, music, and jewelry. I love all the ways we can praise God, explore and share our faith.

As a celebration of Jesus (and because I'm already thinking Christmas gifts!) I'm giving away TWO PAIRS of earrings from Family Christian Store.
Both of these earrings are brand new, never been used. They would make great gifts for any woman.
