The Long, Long Route

Posted on 31 March 2008 by MommyKnows

We arrived safe and sound!

We took the long, long (scenic) route, as our English friends are along.

Beautiful Drive

The views were great, even through my cracked windshield.

Big Horn Sheep

Check out the big horn sheep, just hanging around in the middler of the road. It’s always fun when you come zooming around the corner and these guys are waiting for you!

There is a great contest starting later this week. It’s for one of my favorite ‘Rocky Mountain’ products, check back again.

The Great Migration

Posted on 30 March 2008 by MommyKnows

The Great Migration—> I suppose that’s a bit of an exageration, seeing as the new warehouse is just a couple of miles from the old location. There was NOTHING great about today! Except, the fact that it is done! We are moved in and ‘very’ organized. We have considerably less square footage at the new location, so we we were very organized before we moved. It made today go very smoothly.

YEAH!

Baby Marketplace On the Move
One of the ‘moms’ that makes www.thebabymarketplace.com ‘work’ and Lizzy working on the truck. I forgot to take pictures until we we’re 80% unpacked.

Baby Marketplace On the Move
My hero, Mr. MK. I couldn’t have done this without him. I worked ALL day today, but he has been working nights and ALL day yesterday getting the new space ready. They don’t come any better.

Baby Marketplace On the Move
Starting to look pretty good. The new warehouse has two floors. I am hoping that I loose a few pounds running up and down the stairs!

Tomorrow, we’re off for a family holiday … SKIING … yes, again! We like it, alot! I just have about 6 more loads of laundry to get done so I can pack for the trip. ARGGG!

This time we’re taking the nanny and some friends. Should be loads of fun. X’ing my fingers for LOTS of snow and mild temps.

www.thebabymarketplace.com is closed … well sort of … I’ve left the website running and I will be checking a few basic functions each evening, but we are not packing / shipping all week. I have given ALL my employees the week off. To make it up to our customers we are giving 15% off the entire product line. Coupon code is: IamPatient—if you are interested go on over and have a look.

There is a great contest starting later this week. It’s for one of my favorite ‘Rocky Mountain’ products, check back again.

Even this would be an improvement over AMY my last sitter.

Worth a laugh (Thanks to Wesley’s Mom).

Foto Friday … Buried.

Posted on 29 March 2008 by MommyKnows

Foto Friday

Foto Friday
I know, I know … there is no such thing as ‘foto Friday’. However, if there were … I’d just put up this pic of ALL these diapers in my warehouse sitting ready to move to a new home this weekend (small portion of the stock to be moved).

I’ve been madly packing for several days. It was chaos … now it’s just TONS of work.

Excuses, Excuses

Posted on 27 March 2008 by MommyKnows

blog365 .... mmmfffp! Who’s stupid idea was it? It might be the ugly brain child of this fricken fine fellow (sorry Kamen Lee).

I was going to skip it today. I started to think up excuses:

  • The dog ate my homework laptop. I just knew you wouldn’t buy that one. You know with the dog being a shitzu and all.
  • I have to attend the opening of my garage door. Haahahah … Ok, so that’s not all that funny, AND I don’t have a garage and, therefore, no garage door. I could hear you all chanting, “liar, liar, pants on fire!”.
  • My uncle escaped again! This is actually fairly close to the truth, AND if my family didn’t read this blog, I might just be tempted to tell you the whole sordid tale. Then again, I do tend to have that lazy streak … the one that keeps me from getting too long winded or in depth. Well, because that would take a little work and even a little work is sometimes too much work for me … it’s a LONG story.
  • I have to study for a blood test. Really, I was going to go for a blood tests tomorrow at 6 a.m., but I am not supposed to eat or drink for 12 hours prior. My lazy streak kicked in right around supper time, we didn’t eat until 7’ish … I decided to wait for Monday, 7 a.m. is just too late. Tomorrow’s a busy day.

As you can see, I am a pathetic ‘excuse maker upper’. It’s easier to just blog!

What’s the best (or worse) excuse you’ve ever heard? MommyKnows you know ...
