Here's some facts to help you out:
- this started as a family blog
- it's evolved a bit to include my sewing and quilting projects
- and since we now have a son, the pink has got to go!
I'll be drawing two names on May 20. One bag will go to the first person that suggests the name I choose and the second will be a random number winner. So you get two chances to win one!
Thanks for helping me out! Will ship to US or Canada.

LOL! I've wondered when you were going to change the name of your blog to reflect Justin! :-)
Here's an idea:
Our Busy Little World - this would incorporate your kids and your sewing projects. (going with your original theme of "our busy little")
or if you want the name to reflect your original idea as a family blog -- Our Busy Home in Chilliwack
or Chilliwack Busy-ness or Aikema Busy-ness or Our (busy?)Corner of Chilliwack. The (busy?) Aikema Corner.
(do you ever have it where if you say a word often enough it starts to sound foreign to you? right now the world busy is driving me crazy!)
So ....I'm not very creative at all, but just thought I'd give it a whirl. All the best renaming your blog!
First I thought it was cool that your name is Rebecca as my daughter is as well....then I saw that you have a daughter named Chantel, which is my name! How cool is that! :)
So I was thinking:
Ducks in a Row
Peek into our world
Bits and Pieces
Great bags!
How about Our busy Little Family?
Be sure and stop by-I'm participating in the Sew Mama Sew Giveaway today too :)
How about "Busy Hands" Or Mommy's Busy Hands? :) Cute items.
thank you for the chance to win. They are cute. My daughter is also a Rebecca
How about No Idle Hands? Congratulations on that cute little boy and thanks for the giveaway!
patchwork and pancakes
:) Thanks
How about "Boy meets Girls" or "A minute here , a minute there"
Rick Rack Rebecca
How about 'Our Busy Little Life'
JenS:)
I amm horrible at blog names, but here goes - Little people big projects.

How about Busy & Me?
Thanks for a great giveaway!
I wont add any names as the ones already here in the comments are fantastic! Thanks for the giveaway!
okay my idea is Sew Much for Complications.
This takes in your love of sewing and the fact a young man has appeared on the scene to complicate your theme colur. Thus you can have a background of variuos colours or pinks and blues.
Thanks for the give away oppotunity
Not Sew Much
My Spare Time
Busy Bees Blog
Thank you for the giveaway. Very nice bags. dfrazzled@gmail.com
umm, little bits of home?
love the bags and that they snap into a pouch. clever.
thanks for sharing
Those shopping bags are great! Nice work.
I can sympathize, it's so hard to find a name you like. I vote for "Sew Busy".
I see what you are saying....I recently just changed the name of my blog....it starts out with family and evolves into something else, like sewing/craft projects. Well I'm not very good at blog names, but I'll try to help you.
"Life as Super Mom."
"I can do anything...Wife...Mom...Crafter!"
"Life through my eyes."
"Imperfect, so no judging!"
Well, a name I've always loved for a blog that comes from a knitting podcast segment is 'never ending queue' I think it works well to reflect the endless list of things you want to do in both your crafting adn personal life.
these are great! my reusable bags are getting a little ratty from over-use so it'd be nice to spruce up the "collection."
hmm renaming the blog.... i can come up with Nothing right now, but i do have a suggestion-when i was trying to figure out a name for my blog, http://thecreatives.org, i went to one of the sites where you can buy a domain-and put in ideas for names. the great thing is when your idea is already taken, they often provide lots of variations as suggestions as well!
Busy little family
Thanks for the giveaway!
escuishi(at)hotmail(dot)com
http://hello-my-little-world.blogspot.com/

Thanks for giving!

Great bags
how about the The Busy Beehive.=]

Cute bags!!!
How about "Our Busy Little Family"... not too different...
Our Busy Little Girls (and Sweet Boy)
is my suggestion :)

limes.sweet(at)gmail(dot)com
Blog names can really be fun. Mom's Little Hive, or The Nesting Place would be my suggestions. What ever you choose, have fun with it. Thanks for the giveaway :-)

I like the way your totes fold up for easy carrying. For a blog name:

I've been kicking around a cute name, but I already have a craft blog, and I don't know if it is taken yet, but I think it is pretty cute: "Because I Said Sew" (moms say it a lot...well, my husband does at least), and if you're crafting, it totally works.
