ROLL CALL !!!!

Hello my wonderful blog members!!!!  Can you believe we are almost done February? How did this happen????   I swear every day I have more gray hair (yes GRAY HAIR) and I blink and the day is finished.  It leaves me constantly asking myself  ' Did I make the most of today?', and often I still feel like the answer is "NO".  I think I have to re-think what a day should mean in the life of a WAHM with a toddler because I keep being told I am trying to do too much and cant juggle it all. We'll see!! ;-)

So, I'm writing to see who is paying attention. I have 125 members here on this blog, and I'd like every single one of you to reply to this post.  I have a secret that ONLY you 125 members are going to get to have a chance at first, but to do this, I need you all to comment with a way to contact you. If you DO NOT feel comfortable leaving your email, please use the contact us tab above and Send your information through there.  IT IS REALLY important you get into contact with me asap!!!!  You have 2 days!!!  

<3 <3 <3 Let's see who is paying attention.  And if anyone knows other people listed here, you might want to give them the heads up <3 <3 <3

SHOP TILL YOU DROP!  
Check out our shopping tab above.  Right now anyone who purchases APPLE CHEEKS products stands to win one free APPLE CHEEKS ITEM with their order!!!  (note, the value will be over 10.00)   I am a huge fan of the Apple Cheeks Inserts, I have the 2 pack set, and love them!!!  I also love their diaper, I like the way the pocket opening is in the middle so you dont even have to take the insert out because it agitates in the wash and falls out.  *** IF the shopping cart is giving you issues, or the shipping isnt working or is off, we will need to correct that, we are having a hard time with this cart and cant seem to figure it out, IF anyone has a cost effective as in FREE cart they can suggest that is html based and can be put anywhere, please let us know***

Happy Little Toes ( Baby Shoe Review)

Happy Feet... How's about some Happy Little Toes????

First I want to introduce you to Jen at Happy Little Toes.Please go visit them and give a big Eebie hug & love, join their page and grab up some awesome shoes!!        HAPPY LITTLE TOES

Jen Siew is a stay at home mom of two wonderful children ages 4 and 2. She started Happy Little Toes in 2009 in hopes to provide the best leather shoes to her customers. Jen started selling in Orange County Marketplace, building a face book fan page in September 2010 and launched her retail website in January 2011.  When I asked Jen what her products were all about, she had this to say: Moms and kiddos love our products because the shoes are soft, light and flexible. The feedback from our moms is all positive and our sales have grown steadily.  Happy Little Toes Mission is: Providing the comfiest shoes and best service to our customers at a reasonable price. 





 





Eebie Baby's Review on Happy Little Toes 
I remember it like it was yesterday... I was browsing around on facebook and I saw someone post the most adorable pair of shoes.  I "HAD" to run over to take a look.  It was love at first site.  The pictures are  incredible quality and are very well done, but nothing AND I MEAN NOTHING prepared me for the real deal.  But we'll get to that in a minute.  I browsed around on FB, but didn't see anywhere to go buy. So I wrote on a picture (C'mon, we all do it...right?....right?) Within minutes Jen wrote back.  Of course, at that time I had no idea her name, and I felt referring to her as Happy Little Toes might be a bit over the top...I keep hearing Happy Feet music in my head (more on that in a moment too).  SO. I went to their website, and thought I'd order a pair of shoes, but I was having a problem.  There didn't seem to be many in my toddler son's size, so I wrote Jen and asked for some assistance.  Prompt, to the point, friendly and helpful are all words I would use to describe her approach with me. I clicked PAY NOW & didn't look back.  Shipping was super fast, less than a week and I hardly even had those babies out of the box when the 'lil guy was trying to put them on.  I banged the shoe against the wall to make it squeak to show him what it could do. OH-RIGHT- Did I forget to mention these are all Squeaker's ??????  How could I have forgotten!!!  But parents, don't be deterred, they have an easy to remove squeaker that can transform those loud obnoxious shoes on mommy's 'bad days' to quiet lil stompers.  My son bashed his shoe squeaking on every surface he could find, maybe I should have shown him to just put them on instead...   Some pics and a short video clip on YOUTUBE of our 'Lil Guy enjoying his Happy Little Toes:



 





 Over All impression: Love. Not just like. But LOVE. They are very well made, and the first thing I noticed was the width. Baby feet are chubby and naturally wide, and most of us have the hardest time fitting our kids feet, but not with these! My son has to wear a wide or bigger in shoes- and these fit him with room to spare.  The insides are buttery soft, and the shoe's leather is nice and soft, bending and moving with your baby! 
Pro's & Con's:  It's all pro's for me. I have no complaints, and would love to be a repeat buyer.  The price is right, the shipping was fantastic, and the quality is just as I expected it to be and more.  The only con I could assume for some people is the squeaker, but that's a super easy fix, in fact here is a quick tutorial on how to remove it:
1. Locate the squeakers on the shoes

2. Pull out the squeakers evenly from the shoes

3. Here you go. No more noise! :-)

*To re-enable the squeaker sound, do 3-2-1

If I had known 2 months ago I was going to be writing this, I’d have done absolutely nothing different! 
Hi everyone! Having a good second week of February?  I hope so!  I thought long and hard about what to say, and realized that much of what your going to read here is my rambles of love and adoration for one special woman & her business. I find myself incredibly emotional (with good reason) to write this blog post, and my only hope for this post is that I can clearly show how I really feel.

Vilate.  A household name.  We shortened it to ‘V’ because well.... why not? My husband asks daily  ‘ Did you speak to Vilate today ‘.  He asks how she is doing and how the weather is at her house.  I thought it was just me who adored her, her personality, and her business but it turns out my husband has quite the soft spot for this special lady.  
You see, I met Vilate only mere months ago, and that is thanks to Melissa who told me to jot her a line because she had fantastic diapers. I was Vilate’s newest retailer and had not even had the chance to break in my role when the announcement was being made they were closing. 

Everyone was raving about these diapers.  But what was so special about them? What made them what they are? I.Had.No.Idea. until I saw those diapers for the first time!  And then I.Had.No.Idea until I felt one of those diapers for the first time!  And I.Had.No.Idea until I USED one of those diapers for the first time how special they really were.  I am not making this up!  
Today is the day that marks the end of Nifty Nappy diapers for the time being.  I think we all keep secretly hoping there will be another way ( I know I do), and I think we will just have to wait and see.  You never do know what can happen and I know Vilate loves her diapers and her fans & customers, and retailers to pieces and she wants to do what is right for all of us, her business & her family.  
So today, I want to thank Vilate and her Nifty Nappy’s.  I want to pay tribute to Vilate  & her diapers together with the following words:
Vilate & Nifty Nappy’s Fitteds, you are soo: Soft, Snugly, Kind, Absorbent, Perfect Fit, Creative, Cute, Special, Magical, And everything in between.  
Thank you Vilate for providing support, attention, creativity, compassion, fun & for adding more to everyone’s lives with not only your wonderful personality but with your brilliant MAGICAL diapers!  And THANK YOU to her husband for spending hours every night snapping next to her, and to her children and family, for allowing her the moments to create such magic.

From my house to yours I wish you the best in all your future endeavors and I cannot wait to see what is next in your chapter.

February 7 2011. What? We are already through our first week of February? How can this be!!!!??!!
I don't know how you guys feel, but time is just flying, I feel a deep sense of insecurity quite often lately when I take a moment to notice that another day has slipped by. 

I often find myself lost in deep inner thought, wondering ' Did I make the most of my day today? '.  Of course, its safe to say I don't get lost too long, or else I may never come back to the real world lol.  

Our son is 2.5. An angel of perfection given to us.  All my hopes & dreams lay behind those baby blue's and all I ever want is to make each moment count with him and for him.  So I think my worry stems from the fact that IT IS JUST GOING BY TOO FAST!  

I remember when our 'lil guy was starting solids. Oi ! Want to talk about a mama having issues?  That would be me.  It's not quite what you may be thinking though...or maybe it is.  I made all his baby food, and it was the hardest thing I had to do at that time, I felt like I could not get through it.  My baby was growing up too fast and for some reason I, as a mother had to get over the hurdle of him eating baby food.  Odd? Maybe. Someone out there MUST have had those feelings before?  Somebody? Anybody?  It never changed my level of care, he got to eat all those fun new home-made baby foods and life was grand and he was growing. BUT,  inside a piece of me had to let go and jump that brick wall.  I believe I may have ran head first into it a few times, but after about 2 months I managed to get over and really I have never had that problem again. 

Why am I writing all this?  Because it is 4:31 am and I have not gone to bed yet, and I am reminiscing. Here is our 'lil guy at a mere 12 hours old.












Beyond Perfect! I remember us being amused seeing this picture after because it appeared like he had a receding hair line, when in fact the flash just took away all the blond hair he had up there.  And yes, he has beautiful strawberry highlights...He got his red hair honestly, and his pasty white complexion even more honestly :)

Moving on..............................
The business side of things is a whirl wind of fun and excitement every day!  I am not a Facebook person.  I used it to keep in touch with family because we are across the country from everyone, and I never dreamed I would be living on it daily with my own business page and fan following.  The support is amazing, I cant say enough how much I appreciate you guys being there, walking through Eebie Baby's first steps.

A wise person once told me ' You can walk through life on your own, or you can walk through life with everyone surrounding you, because either way THEY are what makes this life ' . You can take that for what you will.  I use that phrase as a remembrance to reach out, I also keep it in the back of my mind when there is someone walking in my life with me that needs to walk alone for awhile :) hehe.

Please take a moment to subscribe to this blog if you have not already.  Scroll to the very bottom footer and add yourself.  On the left hand side you can also join our Mailing List and receive emails when a new post or update is created here.  I would really appreciate your continued support :-)

Without further ado, I will now announce the winner of the:
Nifty Nappy Growing Up Green, Nifty Knickers (A.K.A Longies) 

The winner is... DRUM ROLL PLEASE!!!!!!

LINDA LAMB 

Just a reminder that the winner may be required to pay some or all of the shipping costs depending on their location (this has been stated in previous status posts on our business page and it is also listed in the photo section under the Nifty Nappy Give-Away for a month or more)  *** Please contact me at customer.service@eebiebaby.com, Thank You ***

Thank you to everyone who participated.  I will never be able to repeat myself enough how thankful I am that you are walking this walk with us here at Eebie Baby.com ~ THANK YOU

January 24, 2011

Hi guys!!! Or should I say LADIES !!! :) :)


I am working on a few reviews and one of them is absolutely super duper special to me in so many ways I cant describe.  


What reviews would you like to see here?  I would love some feedback please.  I am thinking of doing a couple linked pages with CLOTH DIAPERING 101 so anyone can find all the info they need when researching.  Sound good?  


I cant tell my secrets, but I bought an awful lot of materials the past couple days and I also bought a new sewing machine because the one I got for Christmas was ummmm not so great.  But this new one---- OHH YEAHH~~~~~~~~~




I wanted to introduce you to a new business associate of mine.  Her name is Erin and she is the owner & creator of Earthly Remedies.  Her products are composed of all natural ingredients and are all hand-made of course.  Currently we are taking orders for her Baby's Butt Wash, Baby's Butt Balm, and Baby's Butt Wash refill solution concentrate.  These are all products that coincide with what we here at Eebie Baby are trying to achieve, and that is a well rounded, safe, green option and home-made as much as possible.  We are also taking orders for her 'Room & Body' sprays.  You can find out more about Erin by clicking on her sponsor button down the left side of this page.  
So in essence, I want to welcome Erin to the Eebie Baby family, and I'd like you all to do the same if you will :)


Cheers

January 17, 2011

Hi Guys!!!!

I wanted to update to fill you in on what's been going on around here.  We have a lot of changes personally and with our business and although it's going to be bumpy for awhile, I think it'll all be great in the long run! 

We have made the decision to be a NOT IN STOCK store *I think I wrote this in another post, but dont quote me*   The decision is a hard one and as the weeks go by the hurdles do seem quite large, but at the same time it is apparent it is what we need to do as a business & as a family right now.  We live in a really REALLY teensy weensy small house (cottage like but with no storage or extra space) and you should have seen what it was like trying to keep stock organized.  I had a shelving unit & a few bins & it was in the corner of our bedroom and it was ghastly! Every time I needed to get stock from the bins I'd have to bring them all out and go through to find what I was looking for, luckily I know where everything is, but I still had to dig to get it. 
We also have to admit the fact that our family is looking at a ginormous cross country move and although we dont have an exact date, it looks like it will be before June or at least by June.  This will tear our family apart in a way because my husband more then likely will continue working out here in Alberta until he goes to school in Sept 2012.  We need to be saving money towards our move and towards any other happenings that come up, and stock sadly has to go!  For now!

I have high hopes for the area I am moving to with our business.  There is a specific place I am interested in that will allow me to actually open a store front and the price is all included.  Hmmmm... 

We have had a few WAHM business' joining on to our new program however due to their own personal circumstances they have had to back out.  I am on the hunt for products that are unique and made with Love.  Business' that I can be proud to promote & work with that will be able to bend and be flexible to different circumstances coming up.  A business has nothing to lose joining on with us except their initial whole sale price, and to me you cant beat having your products out there being showcased somewhere else, let the sales roll in !  

UPCOMING FUN:

Keep an eye out for some new pictures posted here and on our Facebook page.... I am working on some fun projects for my family members and will have them available for sale as well :) 

Keep an eye out for a new WAHB I have just started working with, their items will be available in our store cart very very soon!  The main page may give you a hint :)

Thanks for reading, and would love to hear feedback :)

Nifty Nappy is going out of Business

I took a few days to let it really sink in that my favourite WAHM business is going out of Business! I still dont know how to feel, and I wont even pretend I didn't shed a few tears. I haven't known Nifty Nappy long,and I consider myself very blessed to have been a part of their company even if is was at the very end. Vilate, owner of Nifty Nappy's had to make the undesirable decision to close their doors to cooperate with the new CPSIA ruling that is going to be affecting a LOT of wahm business' if they produce any products for children under the age of 12! Vilate promise's this isn't the last of her, and we'll be seeing her around, I believe that for sure!!! So, as a new retailer for NIFTY NAPPY I want to introduce our personalized Nifty Nappy Shopping Cart. You will be able to get your NN fix before their doors close. All instructions are listed here on this post, as well as in each product so there is NO misunderstandings. 

Instruction/Info: 

* All Nifty Nappy products are available at this time 

* All items are a custom order at this time, and as long as the fabric has not sold out, its yours! Please remember it is being custom made for you so it may take 4-8 weeks to actually receive your items, well worth it :) 

* Shipping is not calculated and listed as (free) until I receive your items. You are required to pay SHIPPING when I package and weigh them so that you only pay the exact amount. I will invoice you when I have your exact shipping amount. *** there are no exceptions to this except in town pick up or drop off , we are located in Edson Alberta ***

* 5 % discount on entire order for all new customers only! *** OFFER ENDS January 19th 2011****
* Buy 5 or more diapers, and get a woolie for a discounted price ( 10.00 %) ***OFFER ENDS January 19th 2011****


These diapers are the most amazing diapers I have ever used. Anyone I know who has them, cant live without them.  They are top of the line, excellent in every way and cute to boot! You just have to own at least one Nifty Nappy item (but I dont know how you'll stop at one)

January 10-17th FEATURE WAHM

We would like to introduce you to the Beautiful, Talented, Amazing: 

Lala (Layla) 
A.K.A 'THE BRONZE WILLOW' 

 Please run over and tell her You & Eebie say "HI" The Bronze Willow

 Our Eebie Baby Interview with Lala:

Q: Who is LaLa? 
A: Now, this is a loaded question! If you would've asked me this 2 years ago, I would've been completely clueless. Now?  I can proudly proclaim I am finally the person I was meant to be all along, the person I was searching for all these years...I am finally, after many struggles, a mother. Some people don't want to be defined by roles, but I welcome this one with open arms! I'm also a creator. I love to make things and there's no greater compliment than for someone to enjoy something I've created. I'm quirky with a sarcastic sense of humor that sometimes doesn't go over quite as well as I had hoped, so I apologize ahead of time. ;) There you have it: I'm a quirky, sometimes sarcastic, tender-hearted Mommy that likes to make things and always has a few projects in the works! Although I have a blast creating things for you to enjoy, I take it very seriously. It is my ultimate goal for everyone to adore every single product they ever purchase from me. 

Q: What products can we find and can you describe a few to us? 
A: Oh goodness...there's no telling what I'll have available at any given time but the core of my business revolves around scented products. I started out making soy wax tarts/melts/disks/blobs of wax and that lead to my fabulous hanging air fresheners, soy candles and various home fragrance items. Somewhere along the way, I began to make jewelry and added a full line of bath & body products as well as palm wax tarts. I've recently begun to sew, make hair bows and am excited about the custom picture frames I've made as gifts. I'm sure you'll see some of those soon! 

Q: Where are you located on a map,  And who do you live with? 
A: I was born and raised here in North Carolina (Go Tar Heels!!) and live with my handsome, patient husband and beautiful, if I do say so myself, little girl. 

Q: Any new products coming out? 
A:   Why, of course! I'm working on some magnetic air fresheners that are perfect for lockers. Can't hang it? Stick it! I have new soap poufs coming up and possibly a few decor items or hair bows as well. You just never know what's going to show up around here - the wheels are always turning! For example, I can't get the image of a pink and red ribbon wreath out of my head for Valentine's Day, so that's next on my "crafty list." 

Q: Why did you decide to make the items you do, and turn them into a business?
A:  I've always wanted to make candles. Always. An online friend sent me a pound of wax, a bottle of fragrance oil, a few tart-making instructions and I was hooked! I wasn't looking to start a business but I certainly wasn't going to turn it down when people began emailing me their orders. :) Six years later, here I am and loving every second of it! 

Q: If you could send your customers to one place to know the information about scents and colours of your smellies, where would you send them?


So, where can you find The Bronze Willow?

How was everyone's Holidays? Ours was quiet and loving!  I spent some of it sick, and not in the traditional way either.  We still dont know what went wrong, but it wasn't the flu or a cold.  I am still recovering and exhausted.  I just looked over to my husband who says " He bit me".  I burst out laughing.  What?  Apparently my son bit him in the lip when he went in for a kiss.  Random!!! but funny!!!

So, Eebie Baby has decided to fall back to our roots a bit more and kick start the New Year with full on REVIEWS , GIVE-AWAYS & Promotional fun! We are still going to carry products and promote our favourite products, but we are going to focus primarily on our blogging & reviews. Input? Talk to me! What do you want to see us doing? Eebie Baby has a new feature on our FACEBOOK PAGE, we are hosting a WEEKLY FEATURE for one wonderful business, wahm, designer, or what-have-you. If you or someone you know creates something or has a fantastic business that needs promoting please contact us at customer.service@eebiebaby.com or use the CONTACT TAB to fill out the form!  It's FREE!!!

Our Website is still under construction and I swear I want nothing to do with building one once it is done.  I had just gotten used to Zen Cart to end up switching over to Wordpress and I am lost all over again.  I miss my Zen, I have to admit.   

Cheers to an incredible New Years- and stay tuned because we have a wicked cool give-away being hosted with one of our sister sites this week!!!!

FEATURE WAHM!!!

I recently had the chance to meet someone very special and have her share her unique home-made talents with me and I would like to introduce y'all to her!
Please say Hi to: 
  Ashlee A.K.A  The Green Goose !! 


The Eebie Interview:

Q: Where do you live in this big ole world? 
A: My family and I live in a small rural town in Northern Texas 

Q: Where do these natural products and idea's stem from? 
A: I began making my products because my husband and I strive to replace disposable things in our life, with reusable options. the more sustainable we are, the better :D I love to craft, and decided to see what I could knock out on my own.. and once I got going,I thought,maybe if I offered them at a reasonable price and they were more affordable, I could help more families find their way to a greener life.

Q: I am now very keen to find out, what is it that you make???
A: I make ( Dryer Balls, Soap Socks, Knit Bows, Knit Baby Blocks, Ouchie Bags that are heat/cold therapy bags, Booger Busters that are a washable Minky Fabric for sore noses, Knit Scrubbies, and Jute Rugs)  

Q: Do you make scented Dryer Balls?
A: My dryer balls have a plethora of available scents! For long term scents I use dried lavender, jasmine, orange peel, and cedar. For short term scents I offer amber romance, rock candy, vanilla blossoms and lavender blossoms! My Ouchie Bags have the option of being scented. they have all the same scents available as the long term dryer balls.

Q: Any new projects and/or products coming out?
A: In the next year, look for chalk mats, awesome felted goodies, reusable dryer sheets, more baby items, and wool longies! I also hope to learn to make goats milk soap.  


Ashlee also shared with me a fantastic website for 'Going Green''.  Her family embarked on a " GO GREEN" adventure and this past summer decided to finally take the " GO GREEN PLEDGE" and it sounds like I have a lot of work to do compared to them :)  There are a gazillion Wahm's with hand made products to view and purchase, as well as personal stories and a lot of very wise women & families on there!  I know what your thinking: " Hand-Made? I am not interested in wearing knit pants and sweaters the rest of my life".  I am here to tell you its not like that.  The Hand-Made industry can make anything you can purchase from any store, the difference is they are doing their best to be green with their choices, every stitch and cut is made with love and care, and you are not feeding a factory manufacturer and instead feeding someone who loved and cared for every inch of your item!  Think about that one.  :)  The website is called: www.handmadepledge.org and its worth taking a peak, even to just go and browse the shop links!!


May I just add that Minky is one of my favourite fabrics and I literally have been known to drool over it and I cannot even describe what a Minky Booger Buster would feel like against my nose!  All I keep thinking is I HAVE TO TRY THESE!!!!  And so do you!  Perhaps you might want to stay tuned in the first few days of the New Year to see what is coming next :)

What is the rave about Nifty Nappy's fitted diapers?  A fantastic advantage to fitted diapers is that the entire diaper is made of absorbent materials and are breatheable so they help to prevent rashes and allow moisture to escape.  They do require a cover, and it's as easy as pairing them with one of Nifty Nappy's wool soakers or covers.  Want a quick diaper change?  Just throw on a wool longie and go, no need for pants over top!  Great for bed time, quick changes, and on the go, and cute to boot!  I cant resist!


Fitted Facts: 
  • Absorbent
  • Breathable
  • One Size fits all ( 7 - 35 lbs)
  • Trim
  • Made of cotton knit and flannel outer layer.
  • Inner layers are composed of organic hemp, fleece and microfiber, pair with an organic hemp fleece insert for over nights and long wear and your set!
  • Overlapping front snaps for a perfect fit every time

  * Wondering how well this 'One Size' will fit your newborn?  You can stop wondering right now!  Check out this quick video tutorial made by Vilate on her beautiful niece and see exactly how the Nifty Nappy diaper folds down and fits a wee baby.  I love them! And every time I watch this video I explain out loud " LOVE IT". NO kidding!

Let's talk about the Nifty Nappy POCKET DIAPER, for all you pocket lovers out there, this is for you!

 A pocket diaper is a diaper that requires an insert put into it as your absorbency layer.  This diaper is easily customized by adding more or less layers to create the perfect absorbency at different stages for your baby!

Pocket Facts: 
  • One Size Fits All ( 7- 35 lbs)
  • Hidden elastic for ultimate containment and comfort!
  • Overlapping front snap so you can easily customize the fit to your growing baby
  • Convenient and easy for caregivers, and daddy

Think I'm done here yet? Not even close :)  I want you to love Nifty Nappy's as much as I do, and the only way you can decide that is by knowing all you can about Vilate's products.  

Think you need a little something more for your newborn?  Worried that a one size fits all just isn't going to cut it?  Have a preemie or teeny bub that needs less bulk and a trim diaper?  Nifty Nappy's have got it!!!  Vilate has created an ingenious design called " Bitty Bums " and you HAVE to check them out!  

The Bitty Bums is the perfect fit for a newborn, by using the fold over technique this diaper easily fits a preemie baby while still being trim and absorbent.  For those of us who love the original Nifty Nappy Fitted design, no worries! This Bitty Bum has the exact same snap layout, the same fabric used and even has a version of mini-lay-in Insert so your not going to need to acquaint yourself with any of its features because you already know and love them!  I personally will be using this diaper on my newborn, from birth right up 15 lbs. Pair your bitty bum with a Weensy Woolie and your baby will be the cutest lil bub around!
Bitty Bum Facts:
  • Fits under the umbilical cord
  • All natural materials
  • Hidden elastics for comfort
  • Overlapping front snap for custom fit on your wee one
  • Absolute brilliant breath-ability concept so you wont have any unwanted rashes. Major PLUS+

Eebie Updates

Hi Everyone, it's a BRRRRRRRRR - 18 right now here in Alberta, Canada!!!
We have lots to talk about today folks, so get comfortable!! 
First, I need to point out I am writing with a lot of distractions around me.  I have a toddler who has decided that nap time is for babies, and he is a big boy now!  Help!  I am listening to him crashing around playing in his room. I have been waiting to share this story that involves our son that happened to us the other day, so here goes:
The other morning I went in to 'let him out of his room' (he stays in until I get him because the door doesn't open properly THANK GOODNESS, A blessing in disguise I admit!).  I opened the door to him saying "uh oh, uh oh" and GASP the entire floor is covered in greenish/white stuffing.  Stuffing? Yes, stuffing, like out of a toy or a cushion or pillow etc., etc.,  I will warn you, this is where it gets sad.  With tears brimming I asked him where Crockie is.  He said "uh oh" and walked out.  To explain, Crockie is my beloved stuffed crocodile that has made it through some long years with me and when our son fell in love with him for bed time I gave in. Mistake?  So, I cleaned up everything whilst my son played with the Christmas tree and I then began my search for the body of Crockie.  Our 'Lil guy's room is tiny, it's half empty due to his destructor nature, and it shouldn't have been this hard to find the body.  But I couldn't find it.  I even resorted to looking in his boots, his jacket pockets, and I even moved his bed.  No Crockie!  After 30 minutes of this, my husband came in and gave a look, I was sure I was missing it because of my upset.  No Crockie.  By this time I admit, I was sulking, and I'd already decided I would put him back together in whatever way I could.  I was very upset and trying to cover it up, but I'd just lost my little pal that I'd had for years and I was trying to adjust to that.  A few hours later my husband asked my son "WHERE IS CROCKIE"? And do you know what our 'Lil guy went and did?  He marched straight out to the back hall, got up on the laundry basket that was upside down and he opened the dryer and pulled Crockie out of the dryer.  *** This folks was quite a triumphant, amazing moment in our household***  I squealed, I laughed, I thanked my son for not destroying Crockie as he joined in with some fake laughing and big hugs to me.  My husband stood there with his jaw open, no kidding.  The facts are folks, Crockie got pee'd on the day before & he was thrown in the wash and dryer and was forgotten about along with some other clothing and my son remembered where he saw him last (he likes to help with washing & drying).  AMAZING!! The truth of the matter is, it very well could have been Crockie since my son destroys everything, but fate had other plans, instead he was pee'd on and kept out of harm's way- Aint Life Grand?  :-)
 
UPDATES:
  • My KnickerNappie REVIEW is half done.  This is a very personal Review for me because KnickerNappie's are my absolute favourite brand of cloth diaper of all time and I doubt anyone can make me change my mind.  The issue I am having is making it incredibly personal because I keep gushing about how much I love the diaper and that can potentially be distracting.  I hope to have this REVIEW posted in a week!  Keep checking back, you don't want to miss it!
