link October is Breast Cancer awareness month!

A percentage of sales this month is going towards cancer research, so each sale we make, is helping out others, please come and check out our baby gifts and accessories. We ship usually next day, but we are a family owned and operated business (stay at home Mom with three kids) so if I can’t do it next day, it will definitely be within two-three days maximum.

We have some great new products and some best sellers such as the snackTAXI reusable sandwich and snack bags, Pacimals (but we are completely sold out, so stay tuned for new ones coming soon hopefully), minky burp cloth sets, diaper diddies and our plush gift sets. Oh, our Trumpette sock sets are still on sale for only $18 a set plus we have lowered our shipping costs and, as always FREE SHIPPING over $75.00.

Our Kuff-Its by the Buti Bag Company are currently on sale for a great price, only $12 to “extend” your pants or simply add a flair to your pants, both in girl & boy styles.

There is a new fun way to enhance your kids’ pants with kuff-its iron-on pant cuffs! Put them on to add some length or just to add some cuteness. 

Kuffs are currently available in 6 great styles of fabulous cotton prints and solids.

You just need an iron and scissors with no sewing at all!

Currently, they are adjustable and generously sized to fit kids’ pants from 0-5T;

PLEASE NOTE: Kuff-its are PERMANENT once applied with a proprietary industrial strength heat-fusible bonding tape! This is not your regular, run-of-the mill sewing store hem tape. It’s specifically made to bond our fabrics to yours and not come off (but you gotta follow our instructions closely to get a good fuse)!

Recommended for woven material pants, such as twill khakis and jeans; not recommended to apply on knits as knits can stretch and loosen the iron-on adhesive over time.

100% Cotton shell. Machine wash/dry or dry clean.

Until next time, ciao and have a great rest of the week!

link First Day of School...

Every year in the fall, kids all over are either excited or nervous for the first day of school. Or, if you are like my kids a little of both. Well, maybe my older child is not that nervous, but my younger one is, but also excited. I have a daughter going into 5th grade (oh, the HOMEWORK!!!) and a son going into 2nd grade.  They go to private school and have the dual curriculum so they are loaded with work. Thank G-d my two bigger kids love school (as I did as a child) and I don’t know what my baby girl will be like, but I have a feeling like my older daughter, loving interacting with others, being social, etc. because she is already!

Last night, we had a TRIAL run for school. Why? Well, because it has been the summer, after the kids camp ended, we have been a bit lazier, getting up a bit later, eating breakfast a bit later, etc. so I was afraid their lazy head Mom who goes to bed way too late would make the kids miss the bus on the first day of school (which is early this year; Sept. 1st before Labor Day b/c Rosh Hashanah is so early this year, they decided to start a week before Labor Day…)  It went really well. My son was up by around 6:30AM. I shortly thereafter got up and went to make him breakfast; I let my daughter sleep a little longer since she shares her room with her baby sister and she instantly wakes up when I walk in the room. How she can hear me tip top so quietly and tap my older daughter, I have no idea…but she does and then she is up. My son made his bed (like he does every morning) and brushed his teeth; put on the clothes I prepared for him and was downstairs in less than 5 minutes. I was very proud of him. My daughter, on the other hand, takes a bit longer, but she came down by 7am, not too bad!

We ended up going to the bus stop with 7 minutes to spare. I was very proud of the kids.  Funny, my son said he had a dream about his new teacher. He said that during a play he was wearing pants that I bought him (he said they were too big) and in the dream, he kept tripping because they were too long and the teacher kept saying “Noah, what is wrong, why do you keep tripping?” and then he woke up. He thought it was funny….he said he never heard his reply.

I also noticed that the last two nights, my daughter went in to bed and less than 1/2 hour later, she walks down the stairs to me on the couch where I am watching TV and she is sort of half asleep. I asked her if she is okay and she answers yes. I say, okay, you just wanted another hug and she says yes. She hugs me and goes back up to bed. It is strange, but perhaps she is apprehensive about the new year or extremely excited. I hope the latter.

Let’s hope tomorrow, the REAL first day of school goes as well as today did. I was too tired to prepare the lunches for them, so I will have to do it in the AM. But, they have all their clothes prepared and bookbags with all their supplies labeled, so they should be all set to go and LEARN about lots of good things in school.


Good luck to everyone else out there sending their kids off to the first day in the next week or so. Hope it is a wonderful year of growth and learning for everyone!

We are selling on www.startingoutsmall.com snackTAXI reusable sandwich and snack bags. We are selling out quickly, so come and take a look. They are terrific, easy to wash, come in nice style and stay tuned for more on the way!  My neighbor just bought 4 for her two older children tonight. They are an excellent and eco friendly way to conserve plastic and the environment.

We also have some new hair accessories and PACIMALS, a great idea to keep your baby’s pacifier in place when their tiny fingers let go of it…what a concept. We have them in some great animal designs, come and take a peek.

We have extended our sale on the three most new TRUMPETTE SOCK SETS that we have now, Ballerina, Baby Buffalo and Baby Camouflage. Only $19.95! Compare it to Nordstroms and Bloomies, they are MUCH cheaper. We deliver ASAP too.

We are offering an additonal 10% off from now until Rosh Hashanah, so what are you waiting for? Come stop and shop….

Ciao for now!
