Hello everyone, It is Angela here, one of the owners of the store. I have been asked so many times about how the store is going and how we are juggling all of the work along with the family so we decided it was time to blog about all the adventures here in Austin Baby's world.
First, wanted to tell everyone how well Erin did at the Big Austin event. We were one of the three finalist for a business plan competition. We were so excited about being recognized, and excited to able to put ourselves out there in the entrepreneur world and get to meet other people crazy like us to go it alone. Erin got up on stage in front of hundreds of people and answered some pretty bizarre but funny "Corporate America" questions. She let the audience know about our underground world of cloth diapering and baby wearing, and it was fun to get the feedback from the audience. We didn't win, however, it was such a great experience to be there and have that recognition. She really did a great job and wanted to give her some Kuddos.
Second, I wanted to talk about all the babies that have come into our lives here at the store lately. There are several new mothers that have been shopping here since they were one month pregnant, and now they are coming into the store with their babies. It is really rewarding to get to see the babies after being there for all the moms and dads while they are going through the trials of pregnancy and all the decisions they were making. We had an idea today that we need a bulletin board for the store, like at the doctors office with all the baby pics. Please send us your birth announcements so we can start a bulletin board. 505 West Mary St. Austin, TX, 78704.We care about our parents, and feel so privileged that they let us in their world. Thanks Austin..
Now for a little bit of business:
We have a new exciting product that we have been getting rave reviews about and ladies you need to try it out. Its called the divacup. It is a menstrual cup, and I have yet to try it, however, Carlene of Austin baby, swears by it and is completely converted. We like to share with you guys the new stuff we get in that is a must try. Also we just got the spring Zutano line in, and if you are like me who is a Zutano junkie you will adore these new spring styles. I also wanted to apologize to everyone who has been trying to get fuzzi bunz! They are extremely behind on their production, and we were not expecting such a delay and really hope that MOE can get it together and ship those babies out! However, we have just ordered some new lines of diapers that we have heard great things about so please venture out of the fuzzi bunz world and try some other great items out there.
Thanks for your time,
-Angela

I'm so excited to see how far y'all have come with the store! Congrats on the recognition.
Congrats you guys! Because of you, Austin is really a better place to raise children and in general.
Diva Cup is A*W*E*S*O*M*E! I tried it for the first time last week and (yikes, can't believe what I am about to say) I can't wait for my next period. No leaks, no sensation of it being there, no pads waste to go to landfill, just awesome awesome awesome!
