Baby Yums has a special for the month of APRIL :-)

Baby Yums is having a special for the month of "APRIL" after asking our fans and followers what their little one(s) favorite fruit is and Pears came up more then once. So Baby Yums has decided that APRIL will be PEARS month to shine. So far Baby Yums has 2 food choices with Pears 1. Just Pears (Smooth, Mushy or Chunky) 2. Figgy Pears ~ Pears & Figs (Smooth, Mushy or Chunky) since it's Pears month to shine I will be adding a few more choices to boost up the love for Pears. Here is where our fans and followers help us out Send us an e-mail to info@babyyums.com (SUBJECT: PEARS) and give us your best match with a Pear) ie: like Figgy Pear. If I choose your combo to be added to our food choice you will get a $30.00 gift certificate for Baby Yums and that includes your new addition of Pears made to order just for you! Let your Family, Friends and Co-Workers know what's new for the month of April at Baby Yums! Looking forward to all the wonderful Pear combos Baby Yums!!

My commitment to Blogging!

Sorry followers & fans I thought I'd be more committed to my blog. However I've decided to take some time "TIME" being the key word and give you a little incite to "Baby Food" I've been doing a lot of reading on the good the bad and the ugly on Homemade Baby food vs Commercial Jarred Baby food.

I will post the links to the articles that has sparked some interest, shock and for me to pass along to family, friends & co-workers who you know may enjoy the read or should read and educate what commercial baby food really is. It's a shocker.

First off being a Mother of 2 boys I've never feed my children jarred food. Even when DH and I took a road trip to PEI we drove for 2 days one night in a hotel room and I still feed my 10 month old on the road "Homemade baby food" yes call me crazy but I'd be crazy not to do so. It's just a habit like anything else that is easy and accessible. That's why I'm all about making your Baby Yums for you because your baby deserves the best!

I'll quote some things that I've read and link the website so you can take a look yourself. Let me know your feed back re: the articles that where linked. If you feed your baby jarred food what would it take to feed your baby homemade fresh baby food?

So here are a few things that caught my eye

This is from "What's really in Jarred Baby Food" click on the title to go to the article

  • Additives
  • Sweets - sugars
  • Safety - chocking hazards
  • Toddler food - added salts & sugars

This is another great sight that I also posted on my Fan page today "Homemade baby food vs Commercial baby food" click on the title to go to the article

Let me know your thoughts! Happy reading

Friday Guest Blogger Spoiled Sugar

Spoiled Sugar Click here to see original BLOG

It’s Friday – and you’re here and I’m here – and I’m so excited we have another date together Thank again to Crystal from Baby Yums to invite us here to tell you all about our awesome products

Today – I want to tell you about our soother clips – because it’s a little bit of an inside joke. You remember last Friday when we “met” I told you everything is mommy made – well it may have been a white lie – a teeny tiny one. Because, YES everything is mommy made, except for our soothers They’re husband made Now Shhh I’m not supposed to tell, because he’s so embarrassed - but my husband makes these soother clips and I think he does a fantastic job with them Check them out:



The selection doesn’t end there – those are just the “his” and “her” models but we have a ton more for boy and for girls – check them out

Our soother clips are really well made. My husbands a little bit of a perfectionist – so he doesn’t over look anything – these clips are going to stay put – check out the back on them – they really grip

They’re really affordable too – at $10.00 a pop, you can stock up on a few different styles and colours to match outfits – it almost makes me wish my kidlets still had soothers because I just loved these things And the really functional great part of these is – you’re not picking your soother ( and a million particles of bacteria) up off the floor each time your little one decides to throw

I can’t wait for you to meet your little soother clip – I’m bet you’ll really get attached

Practical. Funky. Unique – It’s Spoiled Sugar

It's already Hump Day!

So over the hump I leap. So my "Monday" meeting with Sippy Cup cafe was a hit. Was welcomed with open arms. Great start to the week as my blog says so! With "market Monday" it was a great way to end a great day! Then Tuesday came along and it was Women's International day. Was a busy day for me and my oldest son. We went to Cora's for a great brunch with a few other Mommies & Kids was a great second day. After breakfast it was followed by a nice play-time at Gymborree Music & Play in Orleans. While I had my meeting another successful meeting my oldest son had a great time playing with his best friend. We all had a blast. Great place to bring your children.

Today is my original "Welcome Wednesday's" and today Baby Yums hit 70 fans Congrats to the winner who won $5.00 gift certificate to Baby Yums & 1 free class at Gymborree class in Orleans. Not only that our 75th winner also won 1 free class at Gymborree!

Monday dreams

Baby Yums is officially 1 month old today. I feel like this new adventure of me is growing each day bigger and better. Monday has been my "Market Monday's" for 4 whole weeks. With knocking on doors, joining groups to help with great networking tools, and just meeting a whole new community within itself. This whole month has been very inspirational to me. I feel the love from "Mom's who support Mom's" and local business who also welcome WAHM to promote within their own facilities.

I titled this blog Monday Dream because I know where I'd like to be in 5 years from now. I'm just having fun doing what I'm doing right now. I live each day by the quote "Love what you do and do what you Love" Wayne Dyer

Today was a great day. It started off with 2 orders that where delivered to customers. Followed by a meeting with Sippy Cup Cafe. Working on cross promotions so keep your eyes & ears open for Baby Yums promo with Sippy Cup Cafe. Then to come home and have a customer pick up their order was a great Monday all in all. I feel my little dream that I thought in one moment is slowly getting out there and love all the support from my Family, Friends, Co-Workers & Customers

So I blog off with a huge THANK-YOU EVERYONE WHO HAS EMBRACED BABY YUMS SO FAR!!
