Stampin' Up Deomonstrator Website

So I finally took the plunge and now have a Stampin' Up! demonstrator website. They receontly now have it set up where you can place your order right online. I for one have been using their line for at least 10 years. Yes, I can get stamps at my local crafts stores, but the quality just isn't the same. SU stamps are more detailed. They also have a lot of coordinating stamp pads, cardstock, and lets not forget markers. Soon I'll be posting some projects I'll be working on. My brown vinyl just arrived and I can't wait to start creating. So if you are into stamping or scrapbooking please check it out.

Dr. MOZ Review

In case you haven't seen it yet on my online store I carry The Goodfather cd-roms by Dr. MOZ. It's a cd-rom that teaches baby lessons, lists lots of names to choose from, along with other great tips. I just discovered that the team at Dr. MOZ has a baby blog where they spotlight cool baby items they've found online. One of which is the My Plate-Mate. I got some great ideas already off of their blog and I'm sure you will too. Check it out when you get a chance.

Walking to School by Eve Bunting

I just got a copy of this book a few weeks ago called Walking to School that was written by Eve Bunting who has hundreds and hundreds of books published. On the cover is my sister-in-law Mrs. S and my niece Miss M. They are featured throughout the book especially Miss M. The illustrator was looking for a very Irish looking girl and who better then Miss M with her beautiful red hair and freckles. Miss M had to go to the illustrator's house (he lived near them) over the course of 4 months so he could take pictures of her to do the oil paintings. For those who know Miss M you'll notice she's younger in this book. These pictures were taken 4 years ago and the book was just released last month.

Needless to say Miss K and Miss A think it's so cool that their aunt and cousin are in a book!

Labor Day

Happy Labor Day! I can't believe it's been a whole month since I last blogged. We've been having so much fun, and all that ends this week. The girls return to school soon. I'm bummed because even though they can drive me batty at times I really enjoy spending time with them. Miss K goes to school all day this year and every time I ask her if she's excited about starting school soon her response is "But I'm going to miss you.". Aw it breaks my heart. Although I know once she gets to school I know I'll be chop liver again, but it's nice while it lasted.

Photo Essay Contest

So it's not that often that I send you to another person's site unless there is something really good being offered. Two very nice women Catherine and Emily contacted me about a Photo Essay Contest they are offering on their site. Grand prize is a wii Fit. Talk about a grand prize. We have regular wii and love it so I can only imagine how much fun wii Fit is. The thing I love most about this site is it carries clothes for kids who wear plus size clothes. My youngest is more "solid" body shape. She's not thin and she's not plus size so I know how frustrating buying clothes can be when most clothes are catered to thin kids. So what did Catherine and Emily do about this issue, they created a store called It Chicks where you can do all your daughter's shopping right from home. So pop on over there and check it out. They have great back to school clothes:)
