Sweet tooth anyone?

Check out this over the top amazing birthday party for TV host Nancy O'Dell's daughter Ashby. My friend shared these pics with me that she found at my new favorite website, www.Hostesswiththemostess.com and their blog which you can read here.

The theme was Sesame Street and I think they did an amazing job without going over the top with cartoon character. YUMMY! When's the next party and can I come?









The favors. NICE!


Any party with a tower of cotton candy has got to be a smashing success. Am I right?

Lion and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!

Remember way back when I wrote about a precious jungle theme nursery I was working on? If you missed it you can read about it here. The final pictures have arrived and I must say, I think it turned out precious!

I have to give a BIG thank you to the mother of this beautiful bedding, Courie! Thank you for opening your home to us. I hope the bedding brings you and your family great joy. And we can't forget Karen Beyer of Karen Beyer Photography. I blogged about her beautiful work here. It was her talented eye that caught the true beauty of this bedding. Thank you Karen, you are awesome!

The Nursery Diaries

To say that I am anxiously awaiting the final chapter in Erin's nursery posts would be an understatement. I am literally bursting at the seams. I love her design style and would fly her over to decorate my house from top to bottom if I could afford it. Her nursery is sure to be a design masterpiece that I will study like a devoted apprentice. I've blogged about the status of her nursery before, you can read about it here.

Today she has divulged more details and reading her post is like reading the teasers for a TV series season finally. I can't wait! Click here to read her full post.

Technical Assitance Needed

Sorry for the lack of posts this week, I am having a few technical difficulties with the blog. I am waiting for my husband to help me tonight and then I'll post again.

Thanks for understanding!

Spit Up Happens

Enough said right? I just finished some baby gifts for a client in Virginia and thought I would share. If you are interested in purchasing a set of burp cloths you can visit my website for more info www.JacquelynReese.com or email me at vwalton@jacquelynreese.com. They come in a set of 3 for $40 and that includes shipping.


The first set is actually army green and brown my camera skills are just awful. Sorry! Here they are in a set.




And here is how they come packaged for delivery.




Have a fabulous weekend!

Do you Bla Bla?

We do, A LOT. I’d like you to meet Blabla, a.k.a. my daughter’s best friend, partner in crime, cuddle buddy, the object of her affection. I bought Blabla (the correct name for the doll is April) about a year and a half ago and it was the best purchase I could have ever made.

She loves this doll like there is no tomorrow. If I didn’t know any better I could get jealous over all the lovin’ Blabla gets; she gets the best kisses, hugs and laughs. Of course she also takes a serious beating from time-to-time.

Here she is on the floor, where she spends about 90% of her time.



And here she is on a good day. As you can see she’s been washed about a dozen times and mended just as many.




I highly recommend the Bla Bla dolls. They are great for travel, easy to wash and the best tool for persuading your kid to do things. For example, on any given day in our house you will hear, “Blabla is going to take a bath; Blabla already brushed her teeth now it’s your turn; Blabla is tired and it’s time to take a nap.”, etc, etc.

My friend’s daughter is turning 1 on Saturday and we just bought her Violet. I hope they become fast friends. See the entire line of Bla Bla dolls here. By the way parents they aren't just for girls, Bla Bla kids has an entire line of dolls for boys and girls.

Sassy Snack Satchel

Check out this cute insulated snack cooler from Mario Batali. Since on-the-go snacks and beverages are always a must with kids it’s a definite mommy-must-have.

Who’s tired of leaky sippy cups and cracker crumbs in their handbags? Me!
