Are you familiar with Happy Panda Baby Clothing?

How about the adorable Pamela Kramer?

Well, if not, you are now!

Pamela is the bubbly owner of Happy Panda Baby.  I first came across Happy Panda and Pamela about a year ago (how time flies).  Something to do with toddlers and twitter (fancy that?!) and I just adored the whole Panda idea, especially the footie (soccer) and Panda logo as lil boo is a huge footie fan! Plus, she always seemed to touch base with me while I was plugging away doing homework late at night.  Boy are her three lil panda’s in for a delightful treat!!

Pamela has offered a $50 Gift Certificate to Happy Panda Baby to be given away here on Peas and Bananas.
