Bye Bye Things To Do List

I got so much stuff done this week, I must say I am a little proud of myself ;) Besides the typical laundry, ironing, and "mom duties" like swim lessons, Monkey Joes, etc, I did things that were on my list of things to do for a long time! (and it feels so good!) I finally scrapbooked the pics from our Disney Cruise in June. Granted I stayed up way too late, but once I started, I felt like I was reliving the trip all over again. I didn't want to close the computer in fear that the "dream" would be over :) Here are a few of the finished pages. P.S. If you haven't ever done digital scrapbooking, you should try it! I love love love it! So quick and easy (and cheaper than paper scrapbooking)! I have a bunch of themes for every occasion, so I don't just have to use one theme like on Shutterfly!




So, after getting over 100 pics done, I am one step closer to finishing the rest of the pics from this summer! Going done the "list"...

I went through my HUGE stash of fabrics and made some OOAK dresses (one of a kinds). Check them out... Christmas in July...on sale for $30. They will be delivered to my stores this week, so if you would like one, let me know soon!



Going done the list :)...I have been wanting new pics in my living room since Posh Principessa opened last June. So, in December, I took my old pics down. This week, I finally got my new pics and LOVE THEM! I took some pics of the pics. They do not show the details of the frames, but they are Wild Sorbet...hand painted with some polka dots, different trims, and different colors! It was definately worth the wait. Laurie Nowling deserves some recognition for sitting down with me and helping me design them. Thanks Laurie ;)



We also got to be at Pocket Full of Poseys big Show Me St. Louis show. Check them out at http://www.ksdk.com/ under Pocket Full of Poseys, Friday July 23rd!! We are so proud of them ;)

And best of all (okay maybe not but super exciting), fall production has officially officially started. We are starting to cut everything. I've showed you the owl shirt, one last sneak peek...here are the pants that go with them!

Exciting News

We are super excited...Pocket Full of Poseys, the company that makes our headbands, will be featured on Show Me St. Louis this Friday at 3:00 p.m. We are honored that Ava gets to model some headbands :) Make sure to watch!!!



We have a new dress, An Apple A Day, that we posted under the Ellen category. It is a limited edition. Check it out ;)




We went to see Fredbird this weekend. It was a hot one. Daddy complained more than Ava, but we had a great time :) Ava loved her GIGANTIC icecream! She shortly turned it into a shake and drank it with a straw ;)



I promised to give you a sneak peek of the owl that will be in our fall line...drum roll...

Friends, Family, and Fun


I received a ton of compliments on the blog. Thanks everyone and for my devoted 3 followers ;)

Wow...we had an amazing week of friends, family and fun!! We started the week off with a much needed trip with Ava's BFF to Grant's Farm. The girls had a great time seeing/feeding the animals and most importantly, eating the lollipops!! They truly were angels ;) Next adventure was to the zoo. Ava got to see 2 elephants swim. It was so neat! We also tried the Zooimagination stations. It was really cute, and Ava had a lot of fun. She got to dress up like certain animals (the froggie was her fave), play in the sand, draw, etc. It was a nice break from the heat...Try it out if you haven't :) On to the Magic House for a birthday party. In the one picture, she is living in that "glass bubble" that us parents sometimes make for our kiddos, ha! We threw in a couple pool parties to complete the week and had one TIRED mommy.

So about a month ago, my friend Erin designed a few owls for Posh. Our facebook fans voted on their faves... we made a few changes...we played around with the fabric selections...and we have created the most adorable owl ever!!!! It will be paired with a pair of double ruffle pants for the fall. You're gonna love it ;) I will give a sneak peek soon!!! Thanks, Erin...xoxo!

P.S. The HAPPY DAYS Stripwork dress, our most popular dress, is on sale today...for a limited time only!!

Happy Fourth of July


So, drumroll please...here it is...my first official post on my new blog. Follow me, be patient with me, and enjoy :)

We had a nice relaxing July 4th. We did lots of tubing, swimming, "bbq"ing and eating of Mimi's homeade icecream ;) I must say I am so proud of myself, I even VIDEOTAPED Ava 3 different times. No matter how hard I try to do it, the camera just seems easier. I am mean really, can you take the baby dolls, camera, snacks, and video camera????

So onto Posh Principessa. ALL of the fabric is ordered (plus some) and all of the designs are complete. We are hoping to have a fall launch September 1st ish. (And maybe a sneak peek at Finders Keepers in August ;) We are so excited... we can barely keep it a secret.
