My Princess is 2!!

I have no idea where the time goes, or why it goes so quickly.  I feel like it was just last week that I was holding this little peanut...

But then the days went by and she turned into this precious little thing...

Then she began walking...

And talking...

And being the sweetest, sassiest, cutest little munchkin.  She is the epitome of a girly girl, who knows what she wants, and when she wants it.  She is still a little peanut, but she can stand her own, and her new favorite place is Chuck E Cheese.  So tonight, that's where we will go to celebrate.  My little love, with her adoration for Tinkerbell, and all things "pretty", is such a joy and light in our lives, and our Bean is a true blessing.  Little Bean, we LOVE you more than we can express.  Happy 2nd Birthday, Beautiful! xoxo

Biggest Baby Shower

Last night was the bi-annual Big City Moms Biggest Baby Shower, and as always, it was a fun, classy event with some amazing guest speakers, and lots of fabulous products!

I'm sure that Big City Moms will have some really fantastic pictures on their Facebook page in the next few days, but in the meantime I thought I'd share some of the not-so-fantastic ones that I took with my phone. ;)

First off, one of the presenters was the absolutely adorable Jessica Alba speaking about her new business, The Honest Company.  I have tried these diapers and not only are they super stylish, they work really well and are better for our kids and our environment.  Win-win!

And since we are talking about eco-friendly products, how about trashing those diapers in this eco-friendly, stainless steal diaper pail by Ubbi.  Yes, they come in lots of fun colors, and yes, they have decals to decorate them with!  You can use any bag in them - including a reusable wet bag, and after it's a diaper pail, it's cute enough to use as a laundry basket.

My favorite picture of the night - I got to meet Tiffani Thiessen!  She is absolutely gorgeous and such a sweet person!  I was so excited to chat with her for a minute and take a picture with her.  I've always been a fan,but knowing how kind she is to her fans makes me love her even more!

Well, I got in at 1 this morning and my little bean is not a happy camper today, so I am off, but be sure to check out @afroginmysoup on Twitter for more pics from last nights wonderful event!

Here's to an afternoon of happy napping! ;)

The Polka Dot Posie

I have an obsession (yes, another one) with Etsy.  I absolutely love find all kinds of fun, unique gifts, printables, jewelry, and more on a site that I like to think helps people profit off of their talents. I like to browse around and check out all of the amazing things that people are making from there homes and read about the different shops and how they started.

Recently my friend Jen, over at a A Daily Dose of Davis, and her extremely talented mother opened their own Etsy shop.  (If you are a fan of A Daily Dose of Davis, you know that Jen has super talented parents!  Between her dad's amazing carpentry, and her moms skills with a sewing machine, they could probably stock a high end department store!)  Anyway, their shop is called The Polka Dot Posie and it is stocked full of adorable accessories, bags, jewelry, totes, and more!  Plus, almost everything can be personalized! 

One of my favorite products are the personalized, hooded towels for tots.  It must have been three Christmas' ago that Jen sent my little P-man his very own towel, made and personalized by her mama, and it is still one of my favorites!  We use it all the time after a bath and it looks brand new.

I am pretty much overwhelmed by how adorable everything in the shop is, and you can ask Jen, I have already sent her my wish list!  I'll absolutely share pics when it all arrives! :)  In the meantime, here's a sneak peak at what you can find at The Polka Dot Posie.  Enjoy!!

Check them out!  Which is your favorite product?  Maybe you'll see another feature at A Frog in My Soup in the future...just sayin'. :)
