Starting the New Year off RIGHT!

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful New Years eve full of resolutions, good times, good friends, and good health!

I am so looking forward to 2011. A LOT. There are some really cool things on the horizon and I can’t wait to get going. But first, I was thinking the other day that I haven’t held a blog contest in a LONG time! And perhaps the New Year is a fantastic time to make up for that! So here we go!!

This is my first ever Blog Scavenger Hunt!

And this is how it works:

Tomorrow morning (that’s Monday January 3rd at 9:00am), I will post a list of 10 questions. These questions will be about newborns I have photographed over the last year. With the details that I give you, you will have to find their particular blog post and retrieve the answer to a question about that post. The answers will have to be exact and no “pretty close” answers will be accepted.

Then, you will compile your answers (listed and numbered 1 to 10) and email them to me at jillian@jilliankirbybaby.com. The first 3 emails I get in my inbox with all the CORRECT answers will win prizes!

What are the prizes you ask!?

Grand Prize: A full session fee, one digital file and one 11×14 Dry Mounted Print of your choice from your session! (Value of $595)

Second Prize: A full session fee and one 11×14 Dry Mounted Print (Value of $345)

Third Prize: A full session fee  (Valued at $225)

Now what is the fine print? Read on to find out!

These prizes have no cash value and cannot be redeemed for cash. The prizes are transferable and can be given as a gift. The prizes must be used towards a baby session (one year and younger). Prizes are dependent on availability. Sessions must take place in my Langley, BC studio. Prizes must be redeemed before August 31st, 2011. Expect to book your session 2-3 months in advance. Any additional prints, digital files or products can be purchased at regular pricing.

Results | BC Children’s Hospital

Alrighty folks! I just want to thank you all for taking the time to click over and comment on my blog post here!  I wanted to not only raise awareness to the very worthy cause that is BC Children’s Hospital but also donate a little something! Well we got a whopping 117 comments which I was so excited about! So last week I doubled that and Jillian Kirby | Baby donated $234 to the fantastic hospital that has touched us all in some way or another! Not alot in the grand scheme of things, but every penny counts. :)

It was also so cool to see that other local business’s took this as inspiration and did their own versions of this. So thank you all so much for your generosity and time!

Happy Holidays!!

Total Baby App | Jillian Kirby

At my lovely session yesterday, the parents to the gorgeous baby below gave me a heads up on what I think is a fantastic iPhone app! And if you know me at all, you know I’m a Mac/iPhone type of girl, so I’m passing the “heads up” on to you, my fabulous mommies and daddies to be!

Check out Total Baby. You know that sheet the nurses give you at the hospital? The one that you have to complete for every feed, every dirty diaper, etc. etc.? Well this app records it all for you! It has a timer so it’ll time your feeds for you AND it will email the report straight to your doctor/midwife!! It’s super user-friendly and beats searching for a pen every time you want to record something.

It’s $4.99 but totally worth it in my opinion… cause…. who doesn’t have their iPhone/iPod Touch right beside them at all time!?! ;)

Check it out! Total Baby App!

Ok folks, what baby friendly apps do you use?

Make Room For Baby!!

This is pretty darn cool! I remember seeing a version of it when I was pregnant with my first baby and I remember the shock I felt watching it!

For all my mommas-to-be (and even those that have already been through it!), this is for you! Drag the little lever to watch what happens to your organs as baby grows!!

Reflections on Motherhood

Hugs!
