Kimberly Dubach of East Sacramento has been named a finalist for the cover of the first issue of Baby Lifestyles Magazine. The image was taken at her baby shower for her daughter Se'Bella earlier this year. 

Baby Lifestyles Magazine is a creative resource for future mothers throwing a baby shower, decorating a nursery, shopping for a baby and just excited about motherhood.

"Se'Bella's baby shower was a great day," said Dubach. "I was inspired by a lot of the information and articles on the Baby Lifetstyles website, so it would be an honor to be featured on the cover of the magazine's first issue."

Dubach faces some stiff competition if she is to win though, the other three finalists each feature distinctive images of baby showers that are just as striking as Dubach's.

Herbie goes on TV!

Herbie got his first taste of stardom from his TV debut on the FOX 40 morning show and he did fabulous! Herbie is a very well mannered and gentle cat looking for a new home. If you are looking for a cuddly lap cat, Herbie might be just the guy for you. He’s pretty unique in that he doesn’t have any teeth! Herbie came into the shelter with a bad mouth infection and had to have all of his teeth pulled. However, he is fully functional and remarkable (he’s learned to gum his kibble and he also eats wet food). If this eight-year-old love bug sounds like a great cat for you, come pay him a visit!
