Boutique Toddler car seat covers anyone?

I have been having so much fun sewing all the beautiful fabrics that are out there! I can't stop making new designs! Here is one of my favorite Toddler car seat covers that I made. It is reversible and is made for the Britax and any other similar shaped car seat. On this model I used Amy Butler fabric and on the reverse side I used the softest of soft pink dot minky fabric. During the winter the minky fabric keeps my chubby baby warm and I noticed that during the Summer it is too warm for that, so I just flipped it over and have a cool and refreshing cotton fabric. I call this one Enchanted! Unfortunately, since I only have a girl right know most of my prints are girly, but I'm trying, so just bear with me! Let me know what you think if you have a chance!

Let it snow!

This is our Chubby Baby's 1st time up in the snow and she didn't know what to really make of it, she kept slipping and falling and getting her hands all cold from the snow because she refused to keep her gloves on. When we went sledding she was so funny because she was acting so serious. She doesn't have a serious bone in her body, she is always full of smiles and giggles. We were all trying to get her to smile and she didn't budge till the end, and she told me she was all done!

To sell or not to sell?

So I've been going back and forth on whether or not I should try and sell seasonal/ holiday fleece blankets? I always make one for my Chubby Baby. For example a Christmas Blankie, a Valentines blankie, a St. Patrick's Day blankie, a Birthday blankie and Easter blankie, you can get the drift! So I've been going back and forth on whether I should put them in my Esty shop, there are so many blankies already out there, but you never know how people might like my themed blankies to drool for! I'll post my Valentine's Day blankie to drool for, let me know your thoughts. :)

What Super Bowl?

Was there a Super Bowl game on this past weekend? Well don't ask me! I was So busy this weekend and my poor husband helped me the whole time. Of course my Chubby Baby thinks she is "helpful" too but I had some big due dates, so I couldn't mess around. My husband helped by taking the Chubby Baby out, so I got everything shipped out today.

I've been working a regular job full time besides running my Chubby Baby Boutique and because I work so much I do have a nanny. I can't do it all and take care of a baby. The point of starting Chubby Baby was so that I could stay home with my baby and be with her all the time and right know it is the opposite and my heart hurts. My life is so busy but I know that this will pay off one day. That one day is not that far away, actually it's about 3 months away.

I have marketed Chubby Baby so much, and it is starting to payoff! It has proven itself and taken off, I set goals and have reached them. I will be quiting my day job and working full time for myself and family. Everything that I have sacrificed has paid off and I am getting my dream, to stay home with my Chubby Baby.

Oh the brown Trader Jos bags are being used because I ran out of shipping boxes, god I hate it when I run out of my shipping supplies.

My Chubby Baby is Growing Up

My Chubby Baby is growing up! We were all in our PJ's ready for bed and I turn around and see her in my shoes walking around the bathroom. I couldn't believe it, this was the 1st time she had done this. So I ran and grabbed my camera and this is what we got. I love having a girl! So cute!

My Organized Chaos

This week has been SO crazy for me! With Market starting on Friday and having to revamp my Line Sheet and deliver New goods to my Sales Rep, requests from new vendors, and deadlines, I feel a Little over my head! But last night my husband took our Chubby Baby out for the evening and let me work in peace. I pretty much got everything done but bc I was so stressed about everything being perfect that I stayed up the whole night and when I did try to sleep I had nightmares! Oh my goodness! I can't believe I did that to myself, I'm putting way too much presure on myself. On top of all that we are Activly shopping for a home and going back and forth with our Broker, this is a crazy time for me.

I have never run my own business, I have never bought a home, and in this economy I'm really nervous because we are doing so well! Chubby Baby is doing very well, my husband and I are looking at beautiful homes, far beyond my dreams and I'm just wondering how long will this last? I know we are Very lucky and we are Very thankful. I just need to stay positive and whatever ends up happening I know I can deal with it!

Who knows, Chubby Baby might go out of business too with the new law that has passed since I've seen many businesses already close due to the new law. My sales rep already had a lawyer on it and is trying to see where we fall, due to this law. Since some of my products aren't used by babies but for babies, like the baby wipe cases, where would that fall? But like the infant and toddler car seat covers, is that considered used by babies? We'll see, wish me luck! SO much Chaos! :)

Here is my latest design, enjoy, and tell me what you think!
