Valentines!

Happy Valentines Day!!! Starbright Daddy teaches a night class on Tuesdays. Boo! But the kiddos and I are going to eat some heart-shaped chocolate cake and heart-shaped pancakes for supper! We may throw in a messy craft or two. ;)

Winter go away!

We're getting sick of winter around here! (Or I know I am...) What do you do with your littles to cope with being cooped up indoors in the winter?

We have been trying to go to the YMCA 3 times a week. We also try to hit as many playdates and playgroups as we can. My Starbright Kiddo, who is newly 5, loves to go out and ride his bike in full snow gear. I like the snow if we don't have to go anywhere, but I'm an on-the-go type of person, so that's not often!

Spring, where are you?!?

Teething Giraffe - Daisy - $16.00

Daisy is such a sweet and cute giraffe. She was actually one of the first giraffes I made when I started the business! She is funky, fun and ready to help your baby make it through teething!

What to do?

My littlest Starbright Baby is 9 months old (almost 10! Waaah! Where does the time go!) Right now, she and my 2 year old have epic battles over *his* favorite toy, his ride-on choo choo. (By "epic battle" I mean he says "No BeeBee! MY choo choo!!!" and drives it away while the baby wails in disapointment.) I am thinking about getting her the same toy, but then I just know the minute I do, they'll move on to other things to have epic battles over. I keep hoping the two year-old's obsession with his choo choo will go away so the baby can claim it, but it's not happening! *sigh* I think it's time to visit my local toy seller. :giggle

New Giraffe in the shop! Joyce!

Joyce is super cute and named after my awesome neighbor's giraffe-loving mom! <3

Your little one will be delighted with this whimsical Giraffe! The neck and head are the perfect size for little hands to grasp and chew. Babies enjoy playing with the ears and tail, and the legs are easy to grab!



This teether is all natural and BPA free! (a huge advantage over traditional plastic teethers)



All of my Teething Giraffes are made using 100% pre-washed cotton fabric and they...

Twitter Giveaway!

With the help of my little brother, I started tweeting. :) I want to get up to 500 followers, and then I'm going to randomly pick a follower of my twitter account to win a free Rhino! So tweet about it, and we'll see who the winner is! :)

Rhinos, Giraffes and Zebras, Oh my!!!

I've been working on my Zebra pattern for about a year now, on and off between having a baby, moving, moving again, having another baby and then moving. (We're DONE... with moving at least!) I wanted to add another safari animal to the collection http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifbecause, well, three is a nice number. ;) I tried and tried to make a hippo, to no avail. He ended up looking like a deranged chipmunk and I ended up frustrated.

Luckily, my mom was here for a visit, and she suggested a rhino! Perfect! I knew that babies would love to teethe on the horn, as well as the legs. I got to work on the pattern and it only took 4 go-arounds to get it perfect! There are several listed in my etsy shop! Check them out!
