Long Time No Blog...

Couple of topics for me to cover today:

1. Apology 2. My Neighbor, my saviour 3. The Weather 4. My New Collection

So first things first: I must apologize again for being so tardy on my posts. It has just been a crazy time. With opening a new store, working on new product lines, getting used the the winter weather and the commute with snow and rainfall... I have been slacking! There it is, the truth is out and I have admitted I have slacked on my blog! So so sorry!

I have been busy in the new store and meeting so many new people! I love Chevy Chase and the new location. You know, I am right next door to Mon Tea.

I have been drinking green tea every day since I moved in the new location. Secret revealed! I haven't felt better! I have been feeling bad for some time, but since I moved to the new location and with the help of my neighbor... I have been drinking Green Tea! I really think its helped! You should come get some and stop by and say "hi"! We can drink and get healthy together! If you aren't in Lexington, you can buy it online. They have a great assortment and you should read their website. Lots of good information. Check them out at www.monteashop.com

I recently met a photographer by the name of Amy Stickler. She does great things with her photos. The company name is Aim Photography. Check out this lovely photo of her little girl in one of my Cradle Will Rock Pillow Case Dresses! Be sure to look for her on Facebook: Aim Photography

There is rain today and it is expected through the night.

Tomorrow we are told we will have some snow. The best part is that my store is right next to Mon Tea and you can grab yourself a cup to warm up. But Enough! Spring just get here soon, I am ready! Monday is the first day we will see some sunshine according to newscasts!

My new TEA COLLECTION is a cute and affordable line. Come try them on with your little one. There are even a few things for you Mommies!

Time for a Christmas Tea Party!

This is a note to all the Mommies out there reading my blog. My girlfriends mother called her the other day and said, I'm having a Christmas Tea party (for the little ones), please come! She said when her mom called she "had magic in her voice"! The magic that she remembered when she was a little girl!




This is what her Mom did for her grandkids, a Christmas Tea (which happily included Hot Chocolate for sipping)



This is how you do it girls! A dream day for little princesses and the pink of it all makes it even that more special!














Remember Mommies, you ARE the magic that makes Christmas so special whether it is a tea or a cookie making party. These memories we hold for our entire lives! Enjoy your holiday and making memories!

Jamie Givens Art can be seen here!

If you wander in my new store, you will see all the work that Jamie Givens has done. Take a peek!



Can you imagine this in your new little girl or boys bedroom? Why not! Call Jamie and have her imagine what your little girl or boy will love. They will dream of being part of that art on their wall!

'Tis The Season

Christmas is nearly here! This is a great time to come visit either of my stores and purchase some fun togs for your little ones or the little ones you know! Christmas is never the same without new clothes! I still remember each year getting my new Christmas jammies and after all these years I now know why! Mommy wanted us kids to look perfect in our Christmas pictures! AH!



Here is a photo of moi that my friend took my last Christmas in California sitting by the fire at our local pub and eatery across the street! Doesn't it look festive and warm!!! Come visit me, I would love to see you and see what we can find for your little one!

If you don't feel comfortable buying clothes, why not buy a cool phrase or the little rocker or princess' name?



Nothing says it like these colorful letters hand-cut and made just for Cradle Will Rock! If you need custom colors, just let me know.

Have You Seen My Puppy?

Yes, I have a new pet. My new poodle! Maybe you have seen her? She is pink and is as cute as a button! She has green eyes and blue ribbons on her ears! She looks like she is smiling at you!

What do you think we should name her? I am taking suggestions. Show this photo to your little one and let them contribute too!
