"My baby self weaned despite me trying to keep up the nursing! I find it so refreshing to hear Gwen talk about how hard she works to lose weight and keep herself in top shape. She looks great and has a beautiful family."

“I sit there and play princesses with my daughter, and I never told her anything about a princess, ever. Whereas I go to my brother’s house, and he’s got two boys…I walk in the front door, and I instantly get punched in the nuts.”

Featured Review: Litsy Designs and Ben Turns 2 Years Old

Firetruck2Litsy Designs was kind enough to send me a gorgeous hand-painted plaque ($38) with a firetruck, personalized for my son Benjamin’s 2nd birthday (which happens to be today). Even the small details were adorable! 

Since my child is wild about firetrucks, I chose their version for him.  The plaque has a bright red firetruck on the light blue and medium blue striped background. His name is on top of the fire engine. I also love the red grosgrain ribbon that will be used to hang it. Ben and the rest of my family love it too!  It will be the first thing we hang in his new bedroom (our new baby will be going into his room when she arrives in January). Thanks to Litsy Designs for giving Ben such a great birthday present!!

Owners Patsy Smith and Lisa Wojnovich, both moms with young children, teamed up in January 2005 to create their company. Their artwork has been featured on Grey’s Anatomy - they created 7 large canvases for the Pediatric Ward on the show.

The company creates plaques for girls – future fashionistas will love the shoe and purse plaques, as well as boys – the guys will love the dinosaurs and trains (as well as the firetruck one we were sent). You can also get one of their canvases for your child, check out their line of beautiful paintings. I loved their In the Garden Trio – three garden themed canvases, with a ladybug, a daisy and a butterfly, all hand-painted on 12 x 12 " canvases with a 1 1/2 painted edge, so you don’t have to frame them. 

Need an idea for a baby gift? How about a personalized birth plaque ($50)? Hand-painted on a 7" square plaque and come in pink or blue. The child’s birth information is added on, with first and middle name, date of birth, height and weight, as well as their first initial in lower case in the center of the plaque. They also have darling plaques for the holidays, bathroom and playroom.
