Cielo - Introducing a new Vancouver designer


The concept of the 100-mile diet can apply to just about any part of our life - and Cielo, my favorite new line this season - makes it easy.
We mixed a Japanese vintage cotton print with organic bamboo and cottons to create this devine collection. There are three dresses and a legging to mix and match - and they're perfect with these charcoal Tip Toey Joeys. They are also great value, made in Vancouver, and the collection has a unique west coast flavor.
All in all - we're in love! For girls 1-6.

Huggles and Snuggles

Just arrived from the breeders....these snuggly dogs and bunnies and lambs and monkeys are ready to find new homes! The truffles dogs (above) lie flat - think bear skin rug - and are absolute magnets for little ones. The bashful bunnies (below) and their farm friends are as soft as a long haired chihuahua (not that i'm biased) and will melt your heart.
Drop in for a complimentary snuggle! You won't be able to resist these guys.

Puddle Jumps and Spring Crushes


Meet Justin (Justi) the cute boy next door and Addie's first crush. These two jump up and down and scream each others names, sneak through the hedge and knock on each other's back doors, and race their cars around the 'hood - and are not quite 2 yet!


Somehow the his and hers boots really work for these two - puddles and all! And poor Xander was quite the sport keeping an eye on the two of them!

These are some of the colors in the Katvig spring and summer collection - a mix of solids, stripes and apples - in blues, greens, and the red and purple. The spring jacket is a must - zip out lining, reflector strips, and a hood that really works! Addie is actually not in many photos in this shoot because we had a bit of a tantrum when i wanted to take the boots off her....



The summer rompers are adorable for 0-24 months and the dresses, leggings, boys, shirts, tanks, and boxers go from 2-6!

Drop in and feel the quality of this amazing cotton - addie is still wearing pieces from September last year - and not one color has faded or one stripe bled in the wash. These are pieces that look great and last.

Enough from me - have a great weekend everyone!!!

Cool plaids and sweet blooms



Mornings are still cold enough to freeze toes and force you back inside, and noon is warm enough that we're stripping off layers and looking for a sunny patch. There is the promise of so much to come.
The Sophie catalou spring dresses (eight styles from 3mo-6yrs) and Ben Sherman shirts and shorts (sizes 2-8) make it easy to layer up in sweet spring style.

PS If time is of the essence or you want a little extra help...sign up for a spring consult with Trina or Kim. We'll pull outfits and ideas in your sizes to peruse - and set up the kids with toys, juice boxes, and a video in our play corner. In fact we can even procure a starbucks to order :)

Spring is in!


Bare toes and bright colors - it must finally be spring! We had an absolute ball with Darcie and Jason from Revival Arts Studio taking pictures of our five little a-lister models this week (including their gorgeous little angel Lexi!).

I even promise to update the website soon! I'm finally in the second trimester...all the moms out there will know exactly what I mean!!!!


Have a wonderful Easter - and drop by to see new Vancouver designer Cielo, sweet Picaflor knit dresses in coral and lilac, pink and green florals from Sophie Catalou, must-have pinstripes from Ben Sherman, and soft wearable linen shirts and trousers from Wonderboy.

See you soon!
