Sure you could go to the big box store and get something similar, but for the extra few dollars are supporting a family, and helping the local economy. I was recently invited to another baby shower, and I wanted
When Källababy approached me to come speak as an expert at their upcoming Tummy to Tot event, I was over-the-moon! Together with Mommy Connections, they have created an event to bring back the small-town feel to the community, and you know that is what I am all about!
