I am all for changing the name of this Blog as my bag sewing days have quickly come to a close!!! Don't have any ideas though. Anyone?

My Two New Good Finds

Meet the Frog Pod.








This is actually something I have wanted for about two years, but couldn't justify it in our little apartment, plus I am not sure it would have adhered to the 100 year old tile in the shower. This frog is great. It sticks to the shower three different ways: adhesive, screws or suction cups. The back of the frog is a toy holder, and has holes for water drainage. The top of the frog is a shelf, and all the toes stick out so that you can hang things on them. My kids think it makes their bathroom "a frog bathroom."

There is now a bug version.

Meet The Boon Bug.


If you want to see more of their cool stuff, including a bean bag that you fill with stuffed animals or blankets, check out Boon.

This next one I didn't actually find, unless you count finding it at Becki's house and deciding I want one as finding it myself.


Meet The Kaboost.




This is a good solution to having lots of straps hanging from your chairs in the dining room. Instead of using a booster seat that needs to be strapped to the chair, we decided to get this for Annie. It raises the chair high enough for her to eat at the table without any help. It's adjustable, and very sturdy. The chair doesn't move at all, and now I don't have to worry about her rocking back in the chair. It comes in green, brown and a natural color.

Cool Blog Stuff

Some of you may have discovered this already, but it is new and exciting to me. I have a sister-in-law that changes the background on her blog all the time. She has a cool Olympic one right now that is very cool. Anyway, I have always used Pyzam for my backgrounds, but it erases all the wigets on the side. Well, never fear, you can now change them because of a wonderful site: The Cutest Blog on the Block. That is were I found this background that I thought you would all love. Anyway, all you do is pick one of the basic layouts from blogger and then you add the backgrounds in the layout section with the html/javascript widget. Easy peasy

I also found these cool things on there too.



Okay, I am sorry, but I don't care whether you liked the book or not, that is funny!
