Time to dust off the sewing machine...

Since the launch of Mommapia I have put sewing on the back burner.  Taking up most of time with tweeting, facebooking and joining blogs to be seen and heard.  Trying my best to get our little fish noticed in the big pond.

It is time however to announce that sassythreads my former handmade children's clothing business will be joining forces with Mommapia!  Mommapia will soon be adding a "boutique" icon to our shopping page.  The boutique will carry handmade clothing items from yours truly, ME!  Items such as the popular denim ruffle jeans that are truly a must have year round
Other items such as funky animal print tights
ruffle pants
and many more fun, funky, unique kids apparel and accessories!!

My New FAV kids book

I LoVe to read to my kids and they LoVe to be read to.  I love the imagination, the pictures, the lessons that kids books are full off!  My kids and I recently came across this book...
It is now our FAV!  It is actually 3 short stories in one amazing little book.  The pictures are bright and fun, the characters are as charming as can be.  I have heard this is the beginning of what will most likely be a series for these 2 lovely characters.  Next time you go to the book store grab a copy! You and your kids will NoT be disappointed!  I HEART Bink & Gollie!

Easy and Delicious


B told me about these delicious little MRE's (meal ready to eat).  Plum Organics baby food, stamped USDA Oragnic.  6+ months no sugar, salt or artificial ingredients added.  Plenty of fruit and veggie combos these little things have been a godsend.  You simply unscrew the top and you can feed baby directly from the pouch or squeeze into a bowl.  When finished the cap can be screwed back on refrigerated and saved for later.  That is if your little one hasn't gotten every last drop, like mine!  I just can't get over the connivence of these and the fact that they are organic makes them guilt free for feeding on the go!  I bought mine at Super Target but for more info check them out PlumOrganics

Double shot espresso makes the world go round

B and I have many things in common

-both married to college basketball coaches, which makes us both basketball widows but of course we would have it no other way.
-we are both mothers of 3 children
-we love realty TV and love to chat about the shows as if we are part of them
-we both live FAR away from family, B an Aussie native lives on the other side of the world from "home"
-we love gourmet veggie pizza
-we are not good at asking for help, we are women we can do ANYTHING
-but the number one thing we have always had in common (except for B for about 2 weeks one time when she decided to let go of her addiction until me the enabler reeled her back in bawhaha...evil laugh) IS we both agree that coffee makes the world go round!

We have worked so hard on our new venture.  Early mornings, late nights and long days, but we got by with a little help from our friend...the Breville espresso machine!  This was a present from my father about 4 Christmas ago, wait four?!  Can it be?! My baby is already 4?!

When you are a WAHM ( for those of you that are as bad as I am figuring out those things, Work At Home Mom) you become master of the circus!  Able to type with one hand, while texting in the other. Nurse a baby while cooking everyone else dinner, drive and find the passy in the back seat (knees are there for a reason) talk on the phone and order drive thru, hold conference calls in the bathroom, respond to emails still wearing pajamas and all the other fun stuff we get to call our daily grind.  Really though, the list goes on because life doesn't stop to give you time to catch up!

These last couple weeks were crunch time.  B and I had given ourselves a date, a looming date that was made to inspire us to push on and do the work.  A date that we wanted our website up and running. Ekkk, it was happening hold on this ride goes FAST!  But we did it!  We got it all done pressed the publish button to the site and raised a mug to cheers.

 B and lil Momma
 ahhh need I say more

Drumroll Please!

To all of our friends and family thank you, thank you...for your patience and support.  B and I are so grateful for the incredible people we have in our lives.  The long awaited arrival of mommapia is finally here and we couldn't be more excited!  Our patience and hard work have paid off and the proof in now in the puddin'.

www.mommapia.com is up and running!  Our patent-pending Just for Baby Bib is ready to be shown to the world.  An idea that was born from two Mom's, raising kids and battling everyday in the trenches of dirty diapers and dishes.  Finding ways to handle the daily grind with style, function and class.  Two Mom's whose world got flipped upside down when an idea came to them that they couldn't ignore.

Mommapia's Just for Baby Bib is an innovative modern approach to feeding babies.  In a nutshell it is a bib, burp cloth and modesty cover in one unique design.  Enabling mothers to have everything they need in one bib at their finger tips.  Made from quality designer fabrics the 100% terry cloth backed bibs are sturdy and practical. A must have for all mothers and makes a wonderful unique shower gift. They fit easily into a diaper bag, or look great hanging from a knob in the nursery ready for use at the drop of a hat.

Mommapia Just for Baby, love the bib you're in!!
