AhGooBaby is offering one to one lucky winner a Plush Pad®. The Plush Pad® is an impressive upgrade to the traditional, permanent changing station with the incorporation of a memory foam cushion (over a half of an inch thick), machine-washable and repellent fabrics, while making it compact and portable with a patented rolling design for the on-the-go parent.  The Plush Pad® can be used in the home 24/7 as a second station (or perhaps as the only changing surface for those looking to conserve space in smaller living environments), taken on trips as a cherished changing surface in hotel rooms, stays with the grandparents, and any other long term travel.  The Plush Pad® is also used for daily outings as a staple in a diaper bag or back of a stroller, and even for tummy time when the baby begins to practice lifting their weight up with their arms.

5 Minutes for Mom asks What are you most thankful for this Thanksgiving? As a WAHM I have a lot to be thankful for! It’s been a year full of ups and downs and lots of learning along the way. I’m going to combine this with the Thursday Thirteen Meme - here we go!

1.) I’m thankful for my children who gave me the idea for Happy Panda and they have continued to be enthusiastic and supportive. I really need that.
2.) I’m thankful to have a husband who provides for our family in a way that allows me to stay at home with our children while pursuing my small business ventures.
3.) I’m thankful for Mom sites like 5 Minutes for Mom, Classy Mommy, Mamanista, Shake The Salt and Baby Swags. These ladies aren’t just reviewers for my company. I’ve developed relationships with these women and have supported their efforts just as they have mine.
4.) I’m thankful to Brian Germain and Matthew Johnson my lead graphic designers. These guys have taken what is inside my head and made it possible for your baby and toddler to wear.
6.) I’m thankful for Blogger and Wordpress for giving me a user friendly platform to learn about blogging for personal and business. A BIG thank you to Jarret Cade for all his free lance tech support.
7.) I’m thankful for PayPal. Yes, really! They have allowed me to do business in a much easier way. It’s a one stop shop for me and I can collect and pay out with ease.
8.) I’m thankful to diaper cakewalk who with a bit of collaboration allowed us the spring board for developing our diaper cakes.
9.) I’m thankful to my Q who is very crafty and she helps me come up with many designs for our cakes and graphics.
10.) I’m thankful to my US manufacturers who have worked with me this year and given me the ability to stay Made in the USA.
11.) I’m thankful to social media applications like LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook for allowing me more networking power.
12.) I’m thankful to those creators of memes! Ones like Wordless Wednesday and Thursday Thirteens that allow me an outlet to share my business and life with others, it’s been great.
13.) Finally I’m thankful to my customers! They have given me great feedback over the last year. They have provided me with photos of their little ones to post on our Happy Pandas page and I’m proud to display them. My hope is that my customers will come back for Black Friday.
Thanks to all of you visiting, it’s been a great year and as you can see I have a lot to be thankful for.

This Friday 11/28 beginning at Midnight for a full 24 hours Happy Panda is offering 50% off when you purchase $35.00 or more. NO CODES NECESSARY! There are many folks who will be hitting the stores early and there are some who would rather stay in their pj’s with a cup of coffee and shop online. We would love for those staying at home to shop our Black Friday Sales Event. We would like to also invite other companies offering Black Friday Sales to sign our Mr. Linky!

Happy Panda has been invaded by Wild Republic’s line of Cuddlkins pandas. These soft plush stuffed pandas stand a whole 8″ tall. A portion of the proceeds for the sale of these pandas goes towards ABHAYA Charitable Foundation, ( USA ), a non-profit organization providing housing, education and support to disadvantaged children throughout the world. We hope you like our new additions to the store. None of our Happy Panda crew was injured during their arrival. In fact some are being cuddled right now.

In order to provide those of us with a better way to spread the Mom Made Pledge I created this handy widget! I hope that those of you that would like to help promote Mom products and stores will use this widget! I will add to it as more moms come forward and post at Thoughtfully Simple.com.

Happy Panda is ecstatic to be included in the world’s first tweetable holiday catalog. You can find us on pg. 23. We are among some of the finest companies on the internet. Here’s to a great holiday season. Special thanks to creator of  TwitterMoms.com Megan Calhoun for putting this holiday catalog together.
