Birth and Baby Fair in San Francisco!


Hello Everyone!

On Saturday June 25, 2011, I had the privilege to go to the Birth and Baby Fair in San Francisco's Fort Mason Center in the Marina District. When we went, the first 150 families got free bags of coupons and free stuff. 

What mom doesn't like FREE diapers?!

One awesome thing I noticed when we walked in was the changing table by the bathrooms. They had compostable diapers from sizes 1 - 6 for parents to use when changing their kid. I LOVED THEM! Cloth diapers are almost impossible for us right now because we live in an apartment and don't have our own washer and dryer, so these diapers seemed to be a GREAT fit for a family like us. 



I also pre-signed up for a workshop; Baby Sign-Language. The gentleman was very humorous. Not only did I learn a few simple signs such as "milk", "airplane", "poop", "more", and "food"... I also learned "margarita" and "horny"! LOL! He made the workshop so much fun. Other workshops include meet the doulas, baby sign language, vaccines, going green with baby, cloth diapering, baby wearing/slings and things, making your own baby food, pre and post natal yoga, and breastfeeding.

There are lots of activities for kids. My son and daughter did finger painting with all natural and edible paints. My daughter was 6 months old at the time and I didn't have to worry about her eating it. They also had face painting which my son LOVED! He got a Batman face... haha.
There was also a photographer there that was taking pictures for a contest. It was to win a free photo shoot from her. Her company is called STINKIEPANTZ PRODUCTIONS. So many people voted for the photos that she gave out extra prizes! My kids and I won $50 off a family photo session. I can't wait! To see her work, go to http://www.stinkiepantz.com/



There are also free prizes you can win from strollers to photo sessions to clothing and toys! It's a great place!
