Fun with Words

Now that Emme is starting to really use her "words" (the other day she said, "I don't know").....it reminded us of a fun web tool called Wordle.  The tool takes a bunch of words or a website and creates "word cloud images" completely randomized.

This one is a cloud of our previous post "Merry Christmas from Polka Dot Whale:

This one is a cloud from all the different brands on the PolkaDotWhale website (love the BABY word placement here):

Project Cuddle, Cuddle Bear

A little bear goes a long way!  New to Polka Dot Whale is this cute, little cuddle bear....specifically priced to support Project Cuddle. 

This is a great way to give support to others while shopping. Priced at $5.00.....100% of the purchase price of the Project Cuddle Teddy Topper will be donated to support the efforts of Project Cuddle!  Make sure you "place one in your shopping buggy" when shopping their popular baby boy and baby girl selection. 

Valentine's Day

Here's a fun Valentine's Statistic:

Last year, Verizon Wireless reported a 20% surge in   text messages, including plenty of "I LUV U", "U R MINE",   "I M URS", and "XXOO"s.

Did you see The Polka Dot Whale - Your Funny Little Valentine featuring Bla Bla Kids email?  Notice that the Bla Bla handknit Lulu Flower Friend Doll pictured is from Natalie's own changing table.

A Baby Gift Winner at Polka Dot Whale

Hi everyone.  This is Elton, Natalie’s Husband.  Sorry for the intrusion on the blog, but I’m just so happy that we have a baby gift winner!  We are so pleased to announce our first contest winner at Polka Dot Whale in November!   He entered our free, contest via our email list. 

Our winner lives in Clovis, California.  For those outside of California, that might not be familiar with the area, Clovis is in central CA.  The area is known as the agricultural center of California; where everything grows from apricots, peaches and grapes to lettuce, garlic and cotton. 

The winner, Mr. DeRouchey, won a beautiful Cousins Little Cowpoke Vintage-Style Baby Burpies set.  For someone who owns a few pair of vintage cowboy boots, what I love about this baby burpie is first and foremost the western theme and vintage pattern.  The classic baby pattern shows little western tikes climbing on fences, ropin’, playing guitar, etc.    For more cowboy theme baby gifts, click here to do a “cowboy” search at Polka Dot Whale.
