Fun for Everyone

Have you tried glug?  Love it!  They carry some of the cutest tees and such for boys and girls.  They are great for playing and looking great every day! 

Here are some great options for the Spring for your little girl -- these are full of personality just like her!!

The boys have some great options too.  There is nothing like great quality and unique designs that delivery comfort for day in and day out playing :-)  These are available in onsies as well -- one for big brother and one for baby brother!

brothers & sisters

I love it when I get the rare opportunity to have my children coordinate in cute and funky clothes!  Appaman gives us that chance :-)  Here are a couple must haves for both the boys and girls in you house!

These are great for boys and girl -- so much fun!!  Perfect with a pair of jeans or a cute little skirt.  Check out the other offerings from Appaman for coordinating options as well as other pieces that are perfect for your little one's busy life!

Let the Boys Be Boys!

Lets spend a little time focusing on the boys.  They deserve some attention too!  Your little man will love running and jumping in this season's Appaman.  Check out a few of these must haves.  So FUN!

Appaman also has incredible pieces for girls -- comfortable and full of style.  Perfect for the little lady on the go that doesn't want to be slowed down by fashion, but likes an urban edge to design.

Firsts

This is a time of firsts.  This is our first season and I couldn't be happier!  We have so many great pieces to offer you and I can't wait to share them with all of you.  More wil be added to the site soon - both boys and girls!

Speaking of firsts, this little number from MimPi reminds me of one of my first favorite outfits.  I LOVED that little jumper.  I felt so grown up and cute in it.  It is the best of both worlds -- perfect for the little girl to feel pretty and perfect for moms because it keeps girls looking sweet and innocent.

Another first?  Our first give-away!  It goes with our theme - - and the winner is... Michelle.  She was our first blog follower, our first blog comment, and our first order.  So, the prize is a first for you Michelle.  You get to pick one item from the site in a brand that you have never owned before.  Email me!

More contests to come.  Become a follower of the blog and our facebook fanpage to increase you chances of winning.

Thank you!!

For the littles...

We can't leave out the little girls.  Of course they can wear all the clothes big sis can wear, but they can also get away with some of the cutest little outfits.  I love these pieces by Pink Chicken.

What little girl wouldn't love to run around on a hot summer day in these adorable ruffled diaper covers with a soft cotton tank?  Pair together for a play outfit and then change to a Pink Chicken dress.

These are also great for coordinating sister outfits!  Check out the rest of the line for more options.

We are LIVE

Thanks for your support everyone!  The store is ready to go and taking pre-orders.

Testing, Testing, 1 - 2 - 3

Testing the site and it should be live very soon.  Pre-orders will be available for Kids Ink, MimPi, Misha Lulu, Neige, and Pink Chicken.  Other brands will be available for pre-order in February.  I will keep you posted!

This Pink Chicken photo really makes me look forward to Spring.  I can't wait to take the kids to the beach and build sandcastles!

Today was cold and rainy -- it started out fairly nice (in the 50's) and I left my coat at home; by the time I was on my way home it was pouring and in the 30's.  bbrrrrrrrrrr...  Not beach weather today.

...getting closer

I don't know if anyone else is as impatient as I am, but I can hardly wait to get things up and running for everyone.  We are just about ready to go live.  Just in time for MimPi.  Here is a sneak peak at some of the items that we will have...

I'll keep you update on our status.  More news to come!
