Personalized Growth Charts

Brady went for his yearly checkup the other day and he is growing like a weed. He has always been practically off the chart as far as height. He has tall genes(not from my husband!!) Anyway, we are always guessing how tall he is and whether he is ready to move into a different car seat because of height restrictions. Well, we need a growth chart and we sell them! Why does the old saying ring true..."the cobbler's children have no shoes"? So, if you know a new parent, or are looking for a cute and useful baby gift, consider these cute growth charts. They are practical, useful and look great in the child's room too. Check them out at http://www.thechicmonogram.com/ and see if one won't be a great gift idea for the next baby shower you are invited to. The personalization makes them special and they grow with the child so they are a gift that will last.

Family Dinners On Melamine Plates

I never thought I would be singing the praises of Monogrammed Melamine Plates but the time has come! As much as we all love our family...dinners together can be chaotic! There are not even that many of us, but when we all get together it seems like chaos. However, my husband and I are determined to eat as a family five nights a week. Sometimes it's a little much to arrange each week, however I'm happy to have some time of laughter and chaos because I know that our time together is a treasure now that everyone is so busy with their own lives. I even use the good china, silver and the linen napkins when I can, although BBQ ribs aren't exactly the easiest thing to eat on china with white linen napkins! That's when our wonderful monogrammed melamine plates come in handy! I love them because I can use them inside and out and it's definitely a step up from paper! The many designs and monograms make each pattern so cute and so different. Check them out for your messy family dinners, or anytime china just doesn't fit the meal. What a great gift idea too!
