Hold a spoon??

I wanted to share these pics with you because this week has been very interesting at breakfast time. Each day I can tell when I feed Aus that he wants to be able to grab the spoon and feed himself. So I decided that at breakfast this week that I would let him practice and learn. Who knew that learning to hold a spoon could be so tricky. He is still a while away from being able to feed himself on his own but practice, practice, practice...

Oh what a day!

It has been a rough couple of days, Aus has been running fever and I took him to see his doctor yesterday evening and he has a mild ear infection :( Which breaks my heart...but on the flip side, he has been feeling 100% better since last night so he has been himself again, YAY!

We slept in this morning,lol, which is becoming one of mine and Austen's 'things'. When we did get up, as I am making a cup of coffee (side note: Thank you to Wynona for the coffee maker for my birthday and the coffee from Paris Coffee Co. it gets my juices flowing in the morning) I notice Aus becoming very quiet so I run to find him....and caught him red handed.......

My new job ROCKS!

Well, so far I have survived my new career, stay at home mom. We have had a blast at the store this week. Aus loves to greet all of the customers! And he loves to play with all of the babies that come in. He is especially good at rearranging the store for me and Tab ;)

Thank you to everyone that has stopped by to see us this week! We really enjoyed meeting and talking to all of you.

I have to get Aus and I ready for work today. Hope to see you all soon!

P.S. Aus has decided that he likes to sit on the bar stool like a big boy.

Grand Opening was AWESOME!!

We had the BEST time on Grand Opening day! A HUGE thank you to all of you who came out to support us. We really had a great time talking with you all. We got to see some of 'Our Mommies' (*if you register at Paris Baby you some how become ours :) ) and we got to meet some new Mommies which is always a blast. If you didn't make it out you missed out on some really awesome hot dogs! A big thank you to my husband, Ryan, for manning the grill and making sure everyone got fed.

Hope everyone has a great week and I hope to see you in the store!

P.S. Thank you also to Tara Swain Photography for coming out and taking some snaps of our store and our kiddos. :)You are truly an artist.

Oh Austen...

Austen has been on the move this week. He is 9 months and took his very first step a about 3 weeks ago. Sooo, for the last 3 weeks every day he takes more and more steps. Now I feel like I am chasing him everywhere, and he is faster than I am, lol.

Speaking of Aus I have a bit of news......after a lot of consideration Ryan and I have decided that I am going to be a stay at home mommy! After almost 6 years at the Paris Orthopedic Clinic my last day will be February 13th. Which also means that beginning February 16th when you stop by the store you will be seeing a lot of me and Austen which I am very excited about. So Mom's bring your babies when you come and and we will have mini play dates while you shop :)

Don't forget about the GRAND OPENING SALE this Saturday, February 7th. Tab, Sonya, and I are super excited about this weekend and can't wait to share this experience with all of you! We will be having a lot of give aways and hotdogs & refreshments. Also, Small Town Girls is having a bead barn, where you can actually create your own jewelry pieces, how fun is that?!!

Can't wait to see you Saturday!!!

We FINALLY moved!!

So......we did it! We have officially moved Paris Baby to Paris. It was a very long weekend and the only part of the superbowl I got to see was when the Steelers made the game winning touch down. Oh but don't lose heart, my husband and my son got to catch the entire game, including pre-game airings.

Back to the store, we are so excited for everyone to come in and see all the hard work we put into it. We have so much new inventory that no one has seen AND we have 2 more shipments of new products that will be arriving today and tomorrow. Tab and I were so tired yesterday evening that we didn't even think to get a picture of the new store to post. But, that gives you an even better reason to come in and see the store first hand.

Don't forget about our GRAND OPENING SALE this Saturday w/Small Town Girls! Sonya (the owner of STG), Tab, and I are super excited to see everyone. We have several items to give away and don't forget the Moses Basket promotion that we have been doing all month.

See you Saturday!!

**Special Note: Thank you so much to Ryan, Craig, and Shawn for doing all the heavy lifting throughout the move. We could not have put the store together without you guys.**
