Special Event with Bliss Eleven

Time flies when you are having fun...Another month has gone by; I just can't believe it!!!

I wanted to start this blog off by sharing a super cute store that I found called Brookie Cookie's Bows. Her page is www.etsy.com/shop/brookiecookiesbows! She made this custom rolled rose necklace that you see in these pics. She has the cutest stuff. Make sure to check out her store and tell her we sent you :)

P.S. The hair accessories are from Pocket Full of Poseys. She made them custom to match these outfits. Check out her facebook for some new headbands that she just made that are very similar to these!


I love to do this blog for a few reasons! The main reason is I LOVE LOVE LOVE to look back at the month and reflect on everything. So, yesterday as I sat down to look at my favorite things from the month, I pulled 16 pictures into my blog folder. Wow...we must have had a fun month, huh :) So I narrowed it down a little...


In case you didn't see this on our Facebook Fan page, one of our FAVORITE items ever made is going to be in our fall line...our patchwork pants. They will be made with different fabrics, but here is an idea...


We just had my son's 6 month (really 5 month) pics taken with Bliss Eleven. We couldn't be more happy with the pics. So, we are REALLY happy to announce we are pairing up with Bliss Eleven, again, to do a super fun...one day only... exclusive to Posh Principessa customers ...event. Most likely the event will be in the middle of August. Stay tuned...

Happy 4th of July!!!

Happy Be-lated Mother's Day :)

It has been a long time since I wrote, so I don't even know where to begin :) My weekly blogs have become monthly blogs, but I am sure you mothers understand. A long list of things to do everyday...praying just to get a couple of things on the list crossed off...the blog always seems to get moved to the next day's list (and so on). I think a mother's day should have at least 5 more hours a day in it, don't you :)

Anyhoo... I thought I would start with this picture!! This is a picture taken from Bliss Eleven Studios of my daughter and her two of her besties :) The thought of this morning puts a permanent smile on my face! To sum it up...it was a magical morning. Watching Ava laugh, smile, and hold her friends' hands was simply adorable. Laurie did an amazing job capturing it all. When more pictures get edited, I will post a few more, but here is one sneak peek...

(For all those moms with little dancers out there...I know it is recital and picture time for dance, I would definately consider setting up a shoot with Bliss Eleven. It was so fun!!)

Happy Be-lated Mother's Day to all...Mother's Day has definately become my favorite "holiday". I had a great day. We celebrated by having a tea party with my mom and kids. We dressed up in fun clothes, hats, rings, necklaces, etc and had "tea". Watching Ava's light up when Mimi put on her clothes was priceless. And when she wanted to do cheers with Mimi, that was even better. I just can't thank my mom enough for all the values, love, and laughter she has given me. I hope I grow up to be just like her one day ;)

I finally made time to re-do my posh princess's room. I used all the fabrics from our previous lines and had a blast doing it!! The room is almost done. All we need to complete it are some of the adorable prints from the dance pics Bliss Eleven just took!!! The frames were made to match the bedding and came from Delta Girl Frames. Sarah was AWESOME to work with. Her shop is www.etsy.com/shop/ellachamp :) Stop by her shop and tell her we sent you!!

Reflecting back on the month of May, I couldn't not post this following pic...it is definately a highlight. Mimi taught Ava to pump on the swing...ALL BY HERSELF, so I no longer have to push her. YEAH!!!!!!

And another highlight...Rocco can sit up (for the most part). We have a shoot with Bliss Eleven coming up...so we have been practicing a lot so he can sit up and say cheese for Laurie :)

Here is one of the items he will be wearing in his upcoming shoot...love how it turned out and can't wait to get his pics taken in it ;)

Mommy's Day Projects

Here is a MUST HAVE for the upcoming holidays or for those everyday projects . We made these Snap Stories for Mother's Day gifts. Ava had a blast. She did everything...picked out the pictures...peeled the sticky off...placed the pictures in... closed the pages, etc. Ta-dah; they were done in a flash and all during our little prince's nap. My favorite part of this project is... it is mess-free (no glue needed and maybe scissors). We took 10 Posh Principessa pictures and 10 baby brother pictures and "snapped" them right into two books. We just love this product. It is so practical and a fun gift or keepsake! Stop by their site at http://www.snapstories.com/ to see all the books they carry: Baby Face, Girlfriends, A Big Adventure, and Birthday.

Spring Model Search was a SUCCESS :)

Spring Model Search Winners...

Emma -1st Place Cami-2nd Place Gray-3rd Place

Wow is all I can say! I never dreamed of having soo many adorable participates in our Spring Model Search. All the kiddos smiled like they were pros....the night went so smooth...and we had so much fun :) I really enjoyed meeting a lot of our Posh customers too!! Thanks everyone who joined in the fun, whether it was bringing your prince/princess or voting for your favorite pic! I am definately thinking this will be an annual thing or maybe a seasonal thing?? :)

Our heart goes out to all the families that were affected by the terrible storms in the area. Our thoughts and prayers are with you guys. We hope everyone still had a Happy Easter. I know we sure did.

Easter Egg hunting as a lion.

Looks like he loves his vintage tie tee, huh?

First Easter as a family of four :)

We will be at Salem Preschool off of Lindbergh this Thursday and Friday. Stop by to say hello. We will be sharing a booth with Snap Stories. There will be a lot of great vendors there!

Cute Little Princesses

So, I am going to start off on the personal side. Here is a pic of Ava with her friends...this pic is sooo cute...how do I not start off with it...it says a thousand words!!! We had a fun playdate last week with some true princesses getting our toes and nails done. Check them all out. Aren't they all just precious. Here are four of them, the 3.5 other little babies didn't make the pic. With 7.5 kids, I must say, they had a blast and it went smoothly :) Fun times... Getting two kids dressed and myself is usually more tiring than the trip we are making. So, having Ava dress herself is very much appreciated. Lately, she has been cracking me up with some of her outfits. I decided to take a few pics. She ALWAYS layers her clothes. The bottom pic, she has two short sleeve shirts on and two long sleeve shirts on over a Posh dress, with two different colored socks (and a bright yellow bow). She always has some fun shoes on and never forgets her bow. I have trained her well. In one of the pics, she has her Little Gym medal on as her necklace. Somehow, the outfits always come together and kinda look cute. Needless to say, she is so proud of herself, I never make her change...except on the bottom one... four shirts just weren't necessary ;)

We had a fun time at the Go St. Louis race too. Here is a picture of Ava hugging me after I finished. There is nothing like crossing the finish line to see your daughter's proud smile. Getting a huge hug and a kiss from the hubby are definately worth running 13 miles for (in the heat) ;)

Here is a picture of a skirt we added to our site. We love birthdays and love patchwork items, so we love this!! Check it out under the birthday tab.

Not that we are looking forward to fall AT ALL, but we have been working on our fall line this week. Here is a sneak peek of one of the fun fabrics we will be using...

A lot of fun things are happening this week. The Bliss Eleven and I Am What I Am Grand Opening is this weekend. I will be down there Friday evening. Stop in and say hi. And you can see some of our spring line in person :) We are also looking forward to our first Spring Model Search that we are doing with Puddle Ducks and Bliss Eleven. We have 50+ entries and can't wait to see all those cutie pies!! Our entire spring line will be at Puddle Ducks too...this Sunday from 3:00 until we close the dooors :)

Almost to 1,000 fans :)

Let's just start this blog off by saying, only 59 more fans until we have 1,000. Super exciting, right :) Last week was a great week!! I finally made time to create Ava something fun and unique, after all that is what I love to do most!! I took an old Mets shirt (sorry Cardinals dress is next) and turned it into a dress. It is funky and comfy! I definately see some more of these vintage tshirt dresses on the way, maybe an OOAK dress just for you. Check it out...

Everyone is always saying how fun girls are to dress. Well, boys are too!! Look at some of these cuties that are all sporting Posh :)

Bliss Eleven and I Am What I Am are having their Grand Opening party on April 15th from 5-8. Make sure to stop by to see us and our spring line! Plus, you have to see all the other amazing artist. They have an event page created on Facebook (I Am What I AM and Bliss Eleven Studios Opening Weekend). So make sure visit their page for more details!

Ava, Mommy, and Rocco also went to their first Tea Party! Thinking about the magical day puts a smile on my face everytime I think of it. We were joined with great friends, good "tea", princess tunes, fun clothes, and 3 hilarious three year old personalities. It really doesn't get any better than that!! Here are a few pics.

And just when we thought the weekend couldn't get any better, we finished it off with a great b-day party with friends :) Super fun!!!
