I never win anything. Concert tickets, free vacations, door prizes. Nope, nothing. I consider myself a pretty unlucky person. Well, that is up until last December. First, I won a FLIP Video from Southern Weddings!  I absolutely love that thing by the way.  So portable and so easy to use!
Then, last spring, my friend Kathy told me about a contest that Babble Playground was having. Â It was for the best sleeping baby picture. Â I entered this picture and then forgot about it. Â

Then I get a call from Kathy one afternoon and she was giggling and saying something about how I won. Â I seriously never win anything and to win a gorgeous (and very expensive) glider from Monte Designs! Â See, when I was pregnant I really wanted a nice glider. Â And I almost got one. Â But, due to me being stubborn and a hormonal pregnant chick I never got one. Â Now I have one. Â And I love it. Â We’ve spent so much time reading books to Brayden and rocking him. Â I love to sit in it with him after he wakes up from naps. Â
If you’re looking for an amazing glider I would highly suggest checking out Monte Designs. Â They are comfortable, functional, and super stylish. Â Yes, they are pricey, but totally worth it in my opinion! Â I got the Vola model in the bonded leather, which you can see here.
We ended up getting a white one, which makes me a little nervous with a boy. Â But when he discovers markers I think I may move it into our room. Â For now there is a strict no crayon policy in his room!
Thank you very much to Monte Designs for such a generous gift! Â And thank you to Brayden for being my good luck charm (and very handsome subject)!










Wow! That chair is awesome. That picture is too precious, I can totally see why you won!
This chair is gorgeous! I love it in white too. Cute pictures of Brayden reading. The second is my fav!
That chair is beautiful. You have such wonderful white rooms for your pictures! Love it!
That picture of the sleeping baby definitely deserved a win. Love it!
That is by far the most beautiful glider I have ever seen.
Too bad Brayden is reading such a lame book!!!
Fight On!
