Congratulations to Katie and Allie on being birthing warriors and having two beautiful, fresh little babies!

Punky Moms has Punky shopping bags! That’s right. With all the eco-talk going on lately, we’ve stepped up and done our part too! Not only is our website paper-free and eco-friendly (hrmph, minus all that power you use to connect to it :wink ) but we now have all natural, 100% canvas PunkyMoms reusable shopping bags!

Our new bags are a lightweight 4.5 oz. natural canvas bag with matching 20″ over-the-shoulder handles and bottom gusset . They measure a generous 15.5 x 15 x 3 inches and have [img]http://www.punkymomsforum.com/images/punkymomsteaser.jpg” border=”0″ class=”linked-image” /] right on the side! We haven’t attached a price tag just yet, so you will have to wait a little bit longer to show your Punky Love every time to you go to the store.

Don’t forget about our eco-challanges, go read January’s news to refresh your placenta brain about it.

We have just over 1800 members in “suspended” and “newb” status. Mostly that means we have members who joined but never posted and members who haven’t posted in over 30 days. If you fall into that category, come on back, post a new introduction and poke around! With over 20 cities planning meetups, there is a pretty good chance your city is here! If it’s not, gather yourself and a few friends and we’ll create your city’s board for you to get to plannin’!

Our Winter Mega Swap went off great! Out GEO swap is looking good, we have a CD swap going on, and we just might have a quickie VD swap in the works! No, not contagious VD, but fun VD!

alliemamma won the One Close2MeBaby Mei Tai carrier!! I haven’t sent it out yet, but I bet she’ll love it once it arrives! Our next raffle is sponsored by Thee Basket Boo-Tique

We now have a brand new calendar feature on our main site! You have to remember to add your location before you add your event, and if you need help please PM azxure or check our Help area (actually, check the Help area first, because by the time this sends, she may have added a calendar help section!)

Last but not least, I know you are tired of hearing about it, but we need articles! Been living under a rock and don’t know what for? Read all about it here and then send me one! I am on a birth story rampage, collecting as many as I can to post. I know most all of you have at least one of those in you!
