Bathing Beauty

I received this picture from a customer, and I could not be more tickled.

Seriously...how stunning is she?

The cutest little cheeks, bright blue eyes, posed to perfection....and that dimple. Oh, how I love dimples. All topped off in the Jamie Rae Sun Hat.

Thanks for sending this picture--she is ADORABLE!

New Product Highlight: Snuggin Go


This just does not look comfortable. During our Chicago trip, Bryce fell asleep since we were on the go so much. He kept falling over in the stroller, which would wake him up and then he would re-position himself.
I wish I would have had one of these along:




Invented by a nurse, the Snuggin Go is great for babies through toddlers that need a little positioning support. Made from memory foam, and then covered with luxurious minkee, this is one item that will surely get used often.

Housekeeping

Just a few things of interest...


This is the last weekend to save 15% on the Dabba Walla backpacks.

I know, I know. You do not want school to start any more than I do.

If only wishing made it so. Time marches on, folks, so we must prepare.


Also, MiniMe BabyGear has teamed up with Resa Design for a fabulous Changing Pad/ Wet Happened? giveaway. All you need to be is a MiniMe BabyGear Fan on facebook. Contest closes August 28, winner announced August 29.

Finally, I will be taking a brief vacation from August 19- August 23. Any order placed will be processed when I return on the 24th. Thank you for your understanding! We are excited to get away for some much needed R and R, even if it is camping. EEK!
Have a great weekend!

How to cause controversy




Create the first ever breastfeeding baby doll.

This doll attaches to a special apron, allowing the user to breastfeed the baby doll.

Is America ready for this?

I think not.

Kids Say the Darndest things

One of my son's favorite things to do is go with me to the local grocery store. The minute we pass through the automated doors, he is already pulling my hand towards the toy aisles. We pass right by the Barbies and the Play-Doh, and head straight for the Disney Die cast car section. He scrutinizes each car with fervor- making sure they are not ones he already has.


The supermarket was really busy, so the cars section had a few other people also browsing. We shifted past carts and strollers, making our way to the back. Being four and all, Kayden has no patience for this. He wants to look immediately, and with each step was pulling harder and harder to get me through the aisle.

Well, one of the gentleman was rather, well, large. I am not passing judgement, but the entire car section was blocked. Anticipating Kayden making some remark, I threatened that if he said something, anything at all, we would leave the car aisle and get on with the grocery gettin'.


The man eventually passed and Kayden scoured the Cars for a few minutes before moving on to the food section.

At the very end of getting groceries, I happened to see someone from our church. I stopped to talk for a few minutes. Out of nowhere, I heard a little voice pop-up "Hey, Mom- there is that fat man that was looking at cars." Accompanied by pointing towards the man standing at the checkout.

They always say the worst things at the MOST inopportune times, don't they? It is like they have a sensor or something.

Sigh.

So, what about you? I am sure your kids have embarrassed you once or twice, no? Tell me I am not alone here!

Bomblicious-treats for bath time

Would you believe me if I told you I can actually smell how delicious these are just by looking at them? They are just too adorable and luxurious for words.

Wedding Ring
Birthday Candle
Simply place in any bath for a special treat; they fizzle when placed in the water. Your choice of smell, color, and style. Bomblicious even makes wedding cupcake treats that would be great for a bridal shower.

Each Bomblicious treat comes in a special box which makes them perfect for gifting or a fun favor for any type of shower or birthday party. At a retail price of just $10, these top my list of gifts.

Just a Quick Post...

my computer was overheating and ended up crashing, so I am a little slower to answer e-mails these days. Thanks for your patience!

Life Saver: Tiny Tales




My first son, Kayden, has a baby book full of details and charts and dates and thoughts.

Bryce....not so much. I just can't seem to ever get to it!

That is why I love Tiny Tales, a unique little box that holds notepads to jot down memories. I can easily pull one out and write down the cherished moment without running up to the closet and pulling out the entire baby book. The chic "Today I did Something..." papers slide into divided sections, according to how old the baby is, for easy filing.

I really love the system. Retails for $30.

Sneak Peek

Want to see what I have been up to?

This will eventually be cut out in the shape of the car


Car Wash

Bridge over water

So far, I have Kayden's approval to go ahead with this new project.
It does make me wonder...is anyone interested in the template for this? I was thinking about putting one together.
