Thirty-three years ago today on 10/12, a baby was born. Not just any baby. THEE baby. It’s the baby who set the course for where I am today. That baby’s birth, the mother’s pregnancy, and the following years up until now surrounded me with a wealth of experience. It allowed me to be involved in some of the most sacred moments of a new family’s life and a baby’s life. All the “firsts” and the delight and discoveries shining through each baby’s eyes. And the smile on the mother’s lips or the concern on her face with questions. Questions. And more questions. I love what I do. I’m amazed it’s been 33 years.

Happy Birthday to the first Thee Baby Lady Graduate, 33 years old today!

Today is the day that Z Is for Zucchini: a Baby Foods Memory Book turns 11 months old! That means next month on July 20th, my children’s book will be 1 year old and to be correct, one can also say 12 months old! I think it’s funny when people say, “My baby is turning 1 year old” and then go back to saying “My baby is 13 months” the following month until the age of two. Isn’t it fascinating what innocent babies can do to moms!

I can hardly believe time has flown so quickly and I am so grateful to those of you that have chosen to support the book, and its central theme, “Creating Healthy Eaters for a Lifetime™”. And I want you to know that with each purchase, you also receive a “mini consultation” of how to achieve this INCREDIBLE goal.

So, for this time of celebration from June 20th through July 20th (the actual birthday), you can pre-order a book as it goes into its third printing!  And for this time, a special birthday price will be offered of $15 ($10 off the regular price).

The most common birthdays occur during the months of July, August, and September. Z Is for Zucchini is a unique gift for baby showers, new baby gifts, first birthdays, second birthdays, and even grandparent gifts. I hope you’ll take advantage of this offer by clicking through to the following link to order:        BIRTHDAY BOOK OFFER

A Silly and Maybe Truthful Look at Motherhood:

Mommy of newborn = feels like a sleep-deprived detective and “dairy cow”.

Mommy of infant = feels like a sleep-deprived clown and entertainer.

Mommy of toddler = feels like a sleep-deprived broken record.

Mommy of preschooler = feels like a sleep-deprived chauffeur and referee.

Mommy of grade schooler = feels like a sleep-deprived chauffeur and short order cook.

Mommy of middle schooler = feels like a sleep-deprived chauffeur and a technology “has-been”.

Mommy of high schooler = feels like a sleep-deprived chauffeur, grocery stocker, and music policeman.

Mommy of college student = feels like a sleep-deprived lighthouse watchman.

Mommy of adult child = feels like: a Mommy.

Leap day babies are so awesome! They have the most unique birthday and can have years of fun with it.

To bring awareness of this special group of babies this year, I held the “1st Annual Thee Baby Lady Celebration for Leap Day Births” for children turning 4 years old on February 29th at a local park. The goal is to celebrate their uniqueness and to give them an opportunity to meet other kids with the same distinctive birth date and unite in a memorable and confidence-building way. The gathering included her signature “Thee Christy Toddler Picnic”, a whole foods class taught in group and private classes to children aged 0-4 years old.

Parents of babies born in the Tampa Bay area on February 29, 2012 are encouraged to be a part of future celebrations, including 2013. Please email me for more information and to be added to the list so your baby can be connected with the area’s other Leap Day born children.

As I work with infants and young children, I get to observe what products they are drawn to and what they play with.  I also notice which products moms use and what goes unopened. Be mindful of what you purchase for your little one.  Is it marketing that drew you in to buy it, or is it really useful? Let’s compare the value of some every day activities to baby products, you know, like my book! What can you get for around $20?

1 manicure that lasts about 1 week: $30

6 designer cups of coffee: $25

11 gallons of gas to drive about 220 miles: $40

15 onesies, size 0-3 months that lasts about 3 months: $25

1 168-count package of size 1 disposable premium diapers that lasts about 15 days: $40

*My children’s book that your child will read every day for about 4 years, PLUS it then converts to a keepsake item, instilling a legacy of eating healthy for a lifetime: currently $20 (value: priceless!)

Z Is for Zucchini: a Baby Foods Memory Book

Released July 2011 and is now available for an incredible value of $20. Email TheeBabyLady@gmail.com to purchase.
