Forgive my absence, my friends! I am still here and still tied to Penelope’s Pitstop. Not only am I working hard on getting Tippie Toads going and keeping up with those orders, I am juggling 3 kids, a husband, and a sick doggy . And I thought I would have MORE time this summer to [...]
My sweet middle child just turned 5 last week. He is absolutely obsessed with baseball, so I opted for a new birthday idea and we had our party at Minute Maid Park, home of the Houston Astros. I thought it would be fun and definitely more fun for the parents. It was beyond our expectations. Everyone [...]
I have gradually worked my way into this crazy world of Tippie Toads. I am having so much fun doing it! Today, Tippie Toads is officially in the lunchbox business! I am so nervous wondering, “What if?” What if people don’t like them? What if the designs aren’t cute? I am over-thinking it, but mostly [...]

I am a rookie this year. My oldest son entered Kindergarten and I have a huge learning curve. I was a little nervous going in knowing all the “rules” and “systems” our school had from my friends. It was ME that was intimidated, not my son. Two weeks in, however, I am completely impressed with our [...]
Oh my word! I mean gluestick. I set about to find a great theme for my precious one-year-old’s birthday. Having three boys, we have already had a whole lot of great boy parties to date. But, I wanted something special for #3, yet something still “baby-ish”. As I perused the Internet, I decided a monkey [...]
Hello, friends! I am back from a last minute knee surgery and two weeks of vacation and I am ready to get back in routine! It is always great to go on vacation, but it is always great to come home. I am dreaming up a new look and lots of fun new things to [...]
My friends, I introduce you to the Hippo Chair. I don’t remember who told me about this, but I remember hearing about it with my first son and buying it immediately. We are still using the same chair in great condition with my third son. I bought this portable hook-on chair, not for my home, [...]
