Baby showers and new products!

Becky and I have been working hard trying to come up some great new products. While they are still being worked on and re-designed, I couldn't wait to tell you about them. First, we've got a great new "coloring kit" (name is still up in the air) that will incorporate our creative and fun crayon rolls (with a twist) and a pad of scratch paper. It will still fold up into a convenient easy to carry and travel with size, but it will include all of the necessary parts to entertain your little one. And of course, it will be made with some really fun and cute fabrics just like all of the Wilde Fig products. Those will be ready to reveal early next week...so stay tuned! Next, Becky is working on a great nursing apron. I know you've seen them, they are cover ups for when you are nursing your baby and want some privacy. She is working on her own design to mix it up and allow it to stand outside the sea of nursing aprons you find out there now days...I'm so excited to see what she comes up with. On the Wilde Fig site we new have some great gift sets available (check out "gifts" on the shopping page). You are able to customize these sets, boy, girl or neutral, it's up to you. We offer small sets, medium sets and large sets that range from $25 to $75 and with everything that is included in those sets, it's an amazing deal, so check them out!

We are so excited to have our first official review! Rain or Shine Finds has done a great review on Wilde Fig and we want to share it with you. Visit http://rainorshinefinds.com/2009/06/23/wilde-fig/ and see the write up. We hope that this is the beginning of many many great reviews.

Last Saturday Becky hosted a beautiful baby shower for me. It had all of the makings for a great shower. Brunch, laughter, gifts and most importantly, friends. We are so excited to welcome our little boy on July 13, 2009! Thanks Becky, for a great shower, you are an amazing friend.
