Another new spring style has hatched at Snug-A-Bug Blankets: Evening in Damask.
The Damask print is a Robin’s-egg blue with chocolate brown print. It is backed with chocolate Minky-Dot and topped with Minky-Diamond.
For the first time time at Snug-A-Bug you can buy it in a gift set with a matching bib. The bib has the same modern damask print and is backed with Chocolate Minkee-Dot and trimmed in brown.
Lately, it seems, every time you turn on the television, open a newspaper or magazine, you hear about another pregnant celebrity.
Julia Roberts began the the trend when she became pregnant with twins in 2004. Since then, stars like Jennifer Garner, Halle Berry, Jennifer Lopez, Minnie Driver, and Jessica Alba, have all started their families. The celebrities who have taken family life to the extreme are Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Their ever expanding family includes 2 boys and 2 girls, and if you believe current celebrity gossip, twins are on the way.
I have wondered if this current celebrity boom has caused a baby boom in society as a whole. We are constantly bombarded with stories about the the lives of celebrities. We emulate their lives by following their trends—clothes, cars, and lifestyles—I think that may include children.
Have you been influenced to have a baby because of the celebrity baby boom?

Spring is just around the corner, I know it is hard to believe with snow still on the ground here.
New styles of Snug-A-Bug Blankets will be sprouting with the spring flowers.
Over the next few weeks I will be posting the spring line so please keep checking back.
Until then soak up the spring sun, like my pug Oscar. It has been a long snowy winter.
We have a new addition to the family his name is Mac.
He is a 15 week old Brussels Griffon Chihuahua cross, also known as a Brissel Chiffon.
Mac came to us from Griffon de la Griffonnerie in Quebec. They breed both Griffon’s and Chihauhau’s and Mac and his sister were a good oops. He is a sweetheart of a dog. Very small with a lot of moxie.
Oscar our 8 year old pug is not sure what to make of him, but Georgia adores him.
Good news! Chapters-Indigo is now offering photo books for sale on their online site. Prices range from $9.99 and up.
The quality looks good and they offer a range of sizes and covers. It might be a good spot for Canadians to pick up photo books with shipping at a low $4.95. They are also offering a $10 off of $25 coupon good until September 15, 2007, sent out in subscribers of their promo e-mails.
I think I am going to try it out.
If you are having a difficult time of brushing your baby’s teeth, I have found a great brush that makes them want to brush their teeth.
Baby’s First Toothbrushis a soft brush with mini bristles that brush the teeth whenever the baby bites down.
Georgia loves to brush her teeth with this brush. She asks to brush her teeth and I often have a difficult time getting her to stop. The brush was created by a dentist. I tried it out on my teeth and it felt like it would do a good job in a little mouth with little teeth. They come in clear, pink, and blue.
Time flies by when you have a toddler in the house so it has been a while since I have had time to write a post.
There are 3 new styles of Snug-A-Bug Blankets available, “What a Hoot”, “Rave On” and “Colour Bars”. “What a Hoot” is available in both pink and yellow.
“Chocolate Bubbles” is back for a limited time. I have also resourced the fabric for this most popular Snug-A-Bug Blanket.
Coming soon to Snug-A-Bug Blankets are vinyl bibs to match some of the popular Snug-A-Bug Blankets, so please keep checking back.
Once again I have to tell you how glad I am that we decided to teach Georgia sign language. She is beginning to use more and more verbal words but I am not always sure what she is saying. Since she does know some signs, she uses them while she is talking—making it much easier to understand what she wants.
I had originally thought that the signing would be primarily for when she was younger and couldn’t talk, but I find that she is using a lot more signs now and using them a lot more consistently than before.
We recently bought Baby Einstein – My First Signs as a supplement to our other Baby Signs DVD. it is a really good starter DVD with lots of basic signs that are easy to follow and remember. She enjoys watching it and the signs are repetitive which is great since it helps me remember them. That is one of the big challenges when you are teaching your baby signs, you are trying to learn them at the same time and remember what they mean.
My favourite sign is for “cereal.”
