it's almost a new lunar year - win a Chinese zodiac onesie!
A new lunar year is upon us on February 7th and we're holding a contest with Little Buddha Baby for 3 lucky Babygadget readers. Win your choice of cute onesies from Sweet Dumplings in either the rat (the 2008 lunar sign) in the ringer style, or the pig (the 2007 sign) in either brown or pink.
Leave a comment with your email and the answer to the question, "What is lysee?" (look around the Little Buddha Baby site...you'll find the answer there) and 3 winners with the correct answer will be chosen at random on midnight, February 4th, 2008.
Full contest rules here.

"lucky money" in red envelopes!
This is flawed though, because folks can just copy the answers above(I didn't, though lol).

Lysee or "lucky money" in red envelopes was traditionally given to baby boys,
while girls received expensive jewelry by close relatives. Nowadays, however,
this tradition extends to all babies.

Lyee is "lucky money" given in a red envelope to a baby - which I will be doing when my sister gives birth on May 5th. That's why I would LOVE to win a onesie in this year's lunar sign of the Rat, in brown - it's a boy. The combination would make a cute gift. Thanks!
