*** New Minky Bebe Colors***

So, I received lots of new colors this past weekend and am really excited. Not to mention, a 2nd sewing machine was purchased so that I can start mass production of these fantabulous nap mats.

NEW colors: Purple, Lime Green, Blue, Red, Yellow, Chocolate and Pink.

Checked out local competitor and I think you will find your little one will rest much more comfortably on
their personalized Minky Bebe Nap Mat. Oh yeah, besides monogramming, we also will design it for your little one. Customer service is a must with me, only the best.

Nap Mat prices will vary but email me at bittersweetadb@yahoo.com and let's design today. We can make it very affordable so that you don't break the bank AND if you're just looking for a cover that slips one, we do that as well. Price: $7/each

Minky Bebe *** Updates*** - Back to School

It's about that time of year again. Supply lists for schools have made their way to grocery/dept/ stores
and a swarm of new cool backpacks on wheels are in stock.
Parents- check your supply list, especially if you have to get a nap mat! I've got the ultimate cool for back to school. Taking orders now, just finished three today and another for Reid.
Note: Nap Mats are $6.99 at Target (which is cheaper than some others that I've seen)

Here are a few pics of a mat that I finished for my very first Minky Bebe customer. This has all the bells & whistles on it; comes with a travel pillow and removable mat for easy washing.

** All mats are machine washable and low tumble dry.

Design yours today. I am heading to Houston to buy fabric for other custom orders, so just let me know.

Look: Sex and the City 2

Ok, so I love Sex and the City and my fiance is taking me to see the second movie today, cannot wait.

I will make him be quiet, no talking throughout the movie. haha The only thing that would make this a better date is if he poured me Cosmos during the film. lol

But anyhow, I thought I would share something else with you. Fantabulous cupcake decorations! She's talented. Based out of Houston, haven't had the pleasure of trying them, but checkout her blog.

I had to share because of SATC2 movie release, her cupcakes are adorable.

Love the Louis cupcake!

I am alive.

It's been awhile since I have posted to my blog. I've been crazzzy busy, life, it gets in the way.

Ran Beach to Bay 2010 with "Six and the City," and had soooo much fun, even though it was in the pouring rain. But I will do it again next year!!!! Woo hoo.

Reid's 2nd Birthday came and went. I cannot believe he is TWO, amazing how time flies. We took him to the beach in North Padre and he loved it. There was no party, just good quality time with bub.

With all the wedding stuff, that I have yet to mail out, like Save the Dates, I couldn't see throwing him something grandiose until he can remember it. Next year, I may sing a different tune, but I can't address another envelope, but I think he loved being with us all weekend.

Ok, so with that busy month behind us, I defnitely need to time manage. There is lots to be done!

Minky Bebe is still taking orders, had some malfunctions with the sweing machine, but I am finishing one up this weekend for a friend's son, pics soon.

"I'll sleep when I'm dead."

My life's motto, I end with today.

Charley, my pup.

It's been awhile..... I have lots of pics to publish for Minky Bebe and will get to that soon.
But first.....
My pupples of 5 years is LOST. He has been gone since March 19th.
I have put pictures, flyers and contacted everyone and place that I could think of and still nothing.

Please, pray that he comes back home.

If you have any information, please
contact me via email.

I miss him so much!
He is the one on the left.

MammaBia!: Seemed fitting.

MammaBia! blog post: (unrelated to Minky Bebe/night off ;) )


Reid is sound asleep, I thought I would blog therapeutically(sp?) and just breathe. Lots on my mind.
So, I like quotes. Some are intriguing, confusing, bold and get me asking myself questions. I have always liked "be good or be good at it," an oldie but goodie. I like to think that the one I found tonight seemed fitting for the last couple of months that I have had. Certain people, situations and etc... have made me think and while I haven't ever said this to them or whatnot, I certainly thought it. But I think that the last part spoke to me the loudest- I think that at 26 despite my physique, lol I am strong enough to love love love myself 100%m good AND bad and I think that may bother those that are insecure. But I am me, like it.... no Love it or get over it. lol
Just thought I would share with you all.


“There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout:

This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me... or leave me. Accept me - or walk away! Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I don't fit your idea of who I should be and don't try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision.


When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%, good and bad - you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you.”
-Stacey Charter
 
Goodnight.

Just wanted to share this blog with everyone and anyone looking for a makeup artist for weddings, photos or just to learn new, fun makeup tips. My best friend (&matron of honor) is pretty talented when it comes to makeup, she has gone to esthetician school, but has pretty much had an eye for beauty as long as I remember. She is a great, beautiful person and will definitely make you feel and look so glamorous.

Minky Bebe has it's FIRST customer!

So, "Minky Bebe," has it's FIRST official customer!
Going to research the "perfect" fabric to make her little boy's Minky Bebe Nap Mat, so he can have the coolest nap mat in preschool.
FYI: The pictures below are of our "first" test run nap map. It has been redesigned to fit the "luxurious" :) needs for your toddler and convenience of -one-handed folding, for the "Mom on the go!"


Minky Bebe nap mats are customizable and can be made to fit your frugalista budget. Minky fabric is used on all of the mats, but due to price of the fabric, the more we use, the cost does vary.


Personalization is available for a tad extra as well.
Please Note: Because this is a handmade product (and we want to get it perfect) it may take awhile for the finished product, but we will approx. of how long.


THANKS to all of you for visiting the blog!
Have a blessed evening.

"Sew Much Fun!"

Had an afternoon off and instead of getting together wedding stuff (oops.) my mom and I had a great idea.
After searching long and hard for Reid's nap mat for Day School in the Fall, me being the picky one, couldnt find the "perfect" one for my baby. -Longest Run-on sentence ever! LOL

So, we did what any other Mom would do..... Do it myself. Giggle.
And it was fun. I bought this fabric for a "test run," to see how it would go.

I shouldve taken pictures of us actually getting the process together cause we had a hilarious time. And I was proud to say I sewed!!! and my lovely mother assisted.

Foldable On the Go.

Minky Dot Fabric.

We use Minky Dot on all our Nap Mats.

To minimize cost and ease on your pocket book, designs can be made to fit.

MORE pictures to come of various colors and fabrics. But if you have an idea, we can create it, for less!

"Sew, now back to hanging with my boys and cleaning the kitchen and what-not. Oh the Good Life!" :)

In the works.

There simply are not enough hours in the day for all the things that I need to do. LOL
I've got all sorts of ideas running through my head, business ideas and what not.
My new venture, I am going to work out of my home, sewing and blog-shopping.
Stay tuned.....

As for my home life.... dishes are piled up and my fiance is buggin me at this moment, like he is in my face being obnox. LOL
So this weekend was amazing. The weather was about high 60s and the sun was out. So, we went to Corpus Christi. What?! Yea, and I hate that town, lol, but we took monster to the Zoo. "Monster," aka The Reidster, also know as Reid is fixing to be TWO years old in May. Time flies. He had a blast there and at the lil' playground. Which reminds me, I need to fix my backyard and get his playground up and running.
Like I said, not enough hours.

So, in summary- amazing weekend. So much so that we talked about moving there! What. Lol.
Anyhow, stay tuned for Mamma's lil' shoppe online. All my creative ideas will be put to work this year, dadgummit.
Til' tomorrow.

Here is monster, not scared at all. Typical boy.

Mamma & Reid.

Reid & Rob- being goofy on the Coast.

Idea Brewing.

So, today is Sunday and there are only what like 4 days or so til' Christmas. I probably should be doing my Christmas shopping but here I am cooking/playing with Reid and beginning a blog. Why begin on now?!
Well, my fiance, we will call "Bob," has told me at least a dozen times or so that I should write a children's book. I laugh cause that is probably the last thing I should write. If you know me, the only child I love or like to be around is my own, Reid Alexander, but that's cause he is the best son on Earth!
So, with that, I will blog my ideas and my life "The GoodLife." and let you all have a grand ol' giggle or just sulk in jealousy. Just kidding.
Either way, it will give me a chance to enhance my writing skills and maybe one day, I will leap towards a book of some sort or I'm thinking it'll be just purely theraputic for me.
Blog@cha' later, my casserole is probably burning.
