Ask And You Shall Receive

I had such a great response on the sleeping baby sign that I made!  I had NO idea it would be so popular!!

In addition to all the wonderful comments, I had a lot of people email me asking me if I had these available for sale in an Etsy shop or anything like that. 

I created an Etsy shop last year sometime and then got pregnant, had a baby, and never really followed through with it.  I honestly forgot I even had it!

Well, it has been resurrected!!  Emmy Lane Boutique has come back from the dead!

I have included a couple of the ‘Do Not Knock’ signs in the shop.  If there is a color you would like other than the ones listed, please let me know and I will be glad to make one with your color of choice.

I also have several wreaths on there that I have been making for fun (which can also be customized with the colors of your choice). 

Check it out, tell your friends, and be sure to check the shop often as I am going to be adding some more Halloween and even Christmas stuff soon {I can’t believe I just said Christmas stuff. Yikes!}!

Thank you all for being so supportive.  Your comments and kind words are what keep me going.  I love my little blog family!

Have a great day!

Padalily {aka….life saver}

Have you heard of Padalily??

If you’re a mom, chances are you have!  A Padalily is a pure stroke of genius stylish, thick pad that goes on your car seat handle.  It basically helps ease the pain of toting around your chunk of love! 

I literally would get blood blisters in the bend of my elbow from carrying Emily in her car seat.  And that was just from the kitchen to the garage!  Forget trying to run in a store really quick.  Oh the pain.

I broke down and purchased a Padalily at my local baby boutique.  It has been a serious life saver!!

That’s the one I got!  It has the minky material down the middle!  So soft!

They have tons of different styles and patterns to choose from!

    

Aren’t they so cute!  And they are reaaaally thick so it helps distribute the weight of the car seat.

I love mine.  But it was kind of pricey.  And I do think now {in hindsight} that I could have DIY’d one like Preppy Mom did!  Look how hers turned out:

Not too bad!

So, moms, have you ever tried a Padalily?  Or have you DIY’d your own?  I’d love to hear your stories!!

PS – I was not paid or perked by Padalily.  It has just so happened to be a great purchase in our household and I love it dearly.

xoxo,

Boob Toob

I have just found the best thing on the planet for any mom (or mom to-be)!  It's called the Boob Toob!!  I was intrigued just by the name.  I first saw the Boob Toob on another blog (thanks Diary of A Preppy Mom)!  It is a nursing cover that does just that....cover!  I have not yet mastered the typical nursing cover as seen here:

I am convinced all these advertisement photos are totally staged and that there's not really a flailing baby under there.  I don't know about anyone else, but Emily's a kicker.  She is constantly kicking her feet, including during nursing.  Nine times out of ten, she kicks that cover all over creation and my boob ends up hanging out for the world to see anyway.  Not to mention....how on Earth do you remove the baby and put your bra back together and everything else while staying covered?!?  I don't get it. 

Enter the Boob Toob.

See the chick on the left?  She's totally rockin' the Boob Toob and nursing no problem while chattin' it up with her homies.  That's what I'm talking about!!

She barely even had to stop shopping to get herself situated in the Boob Toob!
Like I said, I saw the Boob Toob on Diary of A Preppy Mom.  I followed the link to the designer's Etsy shop.  I was in love.  The fabrics were so cute and she had so many to choose from (I had a hard time deciding which one to go with).  I finally narrowed it down and placed my order with some good 'ole gift cards from Christmas. 

I just received mine in the mail today and I LOVE IT!  It's amazing.  It's well made, the fabric is stylish, it was packaged so cute, and she even took the time to write a thank you note for purchasing her product.  I love that! 

If you are a nursing mom or know one who has a birthday or some other occassion coming up (this would be a great baby shower gift), I definitely recommend the Boob Toob! 

Be sure to visit her Etsy store and her Facebook page!



PS.....I was not perked nor paid to write this blog entry.  I paid for my Boob Toob in full.  She is not a sponsor or anything like that (in fact, I don't have any!  LOL).  I just really love this product so far and think it's fab!  So there ya have it!
