Tripp Trapp in Parenting Magazine




Hello everyone! I just wanted to let you all know that the Stokke Tripp Trapp was featured in Parenting Magazine. I know that most Austin parents already know that the Tripp Trapp is awesome! But I wanted to share with you in case you weren't aware of how great it is. Its so nice to have my daughter at the table with the rest of the family instead of higher up with her own tray and separated from us. It makes for a much more connected family time at meals.




I also wanted to write about some of the new things coming up at the store. The story time started last week and it was so much fun. We had a lot of happy campers circled around to hear some great kids stories. Please check our calendar for any new things going on here because we are always adding new fun stuff. The pics above are from last Friday's tea party that was such a hit with the little ones. I hope everyone is having a great summer and trying to stay cool.
Best Wishes,
Angela

Newest Austin Baby has arrived!


Little Eilis Maya arrived 2/19 this week. She weighs 8 pounds, 7 ounces and is 20 1/2 inches long... and is, of course, a beauty! Mama Erin is doing well, and Papa Alonso and big brother Andre are absolutely elated!

Diapering Parody

This one is too funny to not pass along! Enjoy a chuckle from Austin Baby! (...well, actually from Saturday Night Live, but if you're like us you probably passed out from mama and papa exhaustion long before Saturday Night Live came on!)

Any other brilliant ideas?

Austin Baby Photo Shoot


Hello everyone, Angela here.
It has been a while since I have blogged so once we had something really cool happen I thought it was a good time to write. We are moving soon to our new larger location and we wanted to have something special and inviting at the new store. So we decided to invite our customers to meet our very own Austin babies.
So we were lucky to have met a great photographer named Margaret Gruesbeck. She was amazing and so good with our kids. She really knows how to engage them and capture the relationships between the kids. We had so much fun. We met down on town lake and Erin and I had so much fun watching the kids play and interact. To see a few of the pictures she took go to www.margaretgruesbeck.com/blog , and please feel free to add comments. And also if you would like to take a break and look at some amazing photography go to her website at www.margaretgruesbeck.com and look at the slide shows. She makes these one of kind coffee table books that are priceless.
I have truly, never seen anything like it before. So look forward to seeing her work featured in our new store. And if you are ever looking for a photographer to capture your pregnancy, birth, or family she comes highly recommended in our community and directly from us. I can't say enough great things about her and her studio.

Speaking of the new store. Its all done structurally. Now we are about a week out of starting our build out. And that should take a few weeks, and then a move, and then our grand opening. We will keep you posted.

Also, Due to some very controversial legislation we are not going to be able to carry a lot of our locally made products without some very expensive testing. With these new laws, it will make it very expensive for the local vendors to make their one of a kind items. So we have until February 10th to offer these items so please come by and support these local moms by buying up their inventory.

Other than those few things, everything is still going business as usual. I hope all of you had a safe and happy holiday's. Thanks to all of our great customers who supported local businesses during the shopping season:-)
