Some pictures...


Being that I have been horrible about updating every month with my shop's featured baby of the month here are some of the most recent winners...


And June's Featured Baby of the Month is Ms. Mardie wearing her tiny roses PnT.



Ack...


I am so bad at this! Things have been busy in lil' Poo land. I took a "break" from my business. What did this mean? I concentrated on my diaper of the month club and made custom diapers. lol Not that much of a vacation huh? I am now working my way away from the constant requirement of the POTMC. While it had its fun moments it is a stress causer and steals the enjoyment away from my job. Last night I stocked some adorable swim diapers and tomorrow some custom spots. I haven't really decided whether or not I will officially announce this on Facebook or just drop hints and see whom discovers what sneakiness I have up my sleeve.


Sometimes being a work at home mom can be down right stressful. Its hours upon hours of work, time away from my family and my home. Sometimes I want to quit and then I get that wonderful email from a mama that just got her new diaper or I make something truly stunning and I am reminded of why I continue to do this.

What's up in mama land? I discovered an independent makeup company, Madd Style Cosmetics. thanks to a wonderful BBC mama and fell in love! I lost myself when we had Terry. I stopped really taking care of myself. Its been fun to take 10-15 minutes most days to do something for me. It has increased my self esteem and my husband seems to love it. And you know what... its just plain fun!!! I get to be creative in a new way as well as learning something new.


We also took some family time and went to an event. Josh and I have been playing in the SCA for years but we haven't gone since the very beginning of my pregnancy with Terry. We had a great time!!! Sure its a lot of work. Sure there's the stress of keeping track of the kids and trying to keep some sense on normalcy so that their schedules and behavior is thrown way off course. BUT... it was wonderful going back to something that is near and dear to our hearts and seeing old friends. That weekend was refreshing for my spirit. I felt like me again. A person. Not just mom and WAHM. I have decided that we'll go to at least one more event this year.


Coming in the near future... Ms. Abby from Itsy Bitsy Bums LLC contacted me wanting to do another WAHMlight feature with me. How could I tell her no? Its been so wonderful working with her in the past. So... come July there will be some lil' Pooligans featured in her store. This will be a limited stocking of Nighty Nights in color combinations inspired by summer. Be sure to check her out!
