A Giveaway like no Other!!!

As many of you are aware, we are expecting baby number 5, and I have been suffering from morning sickness far worse than I can remember with any of my other children, and I was sick with Ashie(for the entire nine months)!
Being so sick this time around, and out of morbid curiosity I decided to keep track of how many timed I threw-up. The kids caught on and thought this was the best idea ever!! We have kept precise track, carefully recording each time with a mark on the calendar and(drum roll please)........this weekend I reached the Monumental Milestone of 100 BARFS!!!

My equally as "crazy" friend Xazmin(who frequently asks how many barfs I'm up to) suggested I have a "100th BARF Giveaway". So here it is!!

What will be in your adorable barf bag(unused), and decorated by me? Well it's a surprise of course...I do promise it won't be my barf though, or anyone else's. It will be filled with lots of fun stuff. So....how can you enter this giveaway like no other?

1 entry...leave me a comment
1 entry...for following
3 entries for posting about my giveaway, and sharing in your post your most embarrassing barf experience!!(be sure to come back and let me know)
This is soooo gross! I love it!!!
The giveaway ends Monday June 22 at midnight.

    OK I have walking in your shoes and have one question. How do you still find the energy for this kind of stuff?!!? We should be sending you things not the other way around!

    But just because I do have a story or two or twelve I will post about ti later tomorrow. By the way does it have to be about me and being pregant?

    Take care!

    Look at me...

    I have WALKED in your shoes...

    Does it have to be about me BEING PREGNANT?

    I guess I had a bad case of placenta brain, what can I say!

    You poor thing. I did the same thing with my 3rd child. I had the older kids put plastic shopping bags one on top of the other in an huge ice cream tub. I barfed all day and they would remove the garbage bags all day long. Oh it's the worst.
