Recently, one of our favorite babysitters from Margaret’s little years, came to town for a visit and brought her own precious little ones.  Here is her cute toddler christening her Little Pond melamine dish set.  It was good to see that it could be bonked, dropped and dinked, and still be ready for mac and cheese.  Also, Neville, our all-boy puppy would like to thank Charity’s adorable all-boy son, for taking him on an adventure trek in our backyard wilderness.  Neville had so much fun that he had to take a four-hour nap afterward!
We loved seeing Charity, our great babysitter-now-teacher and her adorable family.  Maybe one of our girls can babysit for her now!

Here’s a picture we found of Margaret, our now 16-year-old, when she was four, with her wonderful babysitter, Charity, mother of cute toddler above, who was a student at UT at the time.  You just have to love a babysitter who is willing to play dress-up, and hide in tents, and crawl into club houses, and whose name is Charity!

Little Pond

We have received so many calls and emails from folks who are looking for Little Pond products, and we are delighted that you are enjoying our Little Pond critters. You can buy Little Pond products, made by C.R. Gibson, at Babies-R-Us. And, you can also find Little Pond items at BabySakes.com. The melamine dish set turned out really cute, and here’s a fun review of the baby book:

“We ordered Little Pond Baby Memory Book because it matched the nursery decor my daughter chose for her baby boy. When we received the book we both cried. It is so perfect for recording the wonderful memories of his birth and his milestones. We were having a tough time finding just the ‘right’ book but when we found this on we knew it was exactly what we were looking for and we have not been disappointed.”
