Great Deals for Li'l Rockers

City Threads is one of my fave clothing lines for Li'l Boo. We have their San Francisco zip up infant hoodie from our Cali days, a toddler size Chicago one from our time there, and we quickly picked up a New York hoodie and hat from them when we moved here earlier this summer. (I'm obviously a big fan . . . see shots of Li'l Boo below sporting their gear from coast-to-coast.)

So I was excited to get an email for previous and current customers announcing they're taking an additional 25% off everything online including items already marked down 50% . . . making these items 75% off! Click here for these sale items. Enter code: CT25NSX Sale ends at midnight 10/21.

There are several guitar/rock tees I plan to pick up for Li'l Boo and my nephew-to-be. . .

   

Tool Time

I sometimes worry about my son's lack of quality daddy time with my husband working late nights and frequently traveling for business. It worries me because our son has limited interaction with male figures as he spendmost of his time awake with me and his female preschool teachers, language teachers, music teachers, soccer coaches, etc. I want to make sure that he sees positive male role models in action and plays with boys/men doing "boy" stuff like playing in the mud, catching bugs or worms, building things, etc. and just talking, thinking and hanging out with boys.

So I was very excited to learn that while I was at Crate and Barrel Saturday morning, my husband and son went to Home Depot to get parts to fix our upstairs bathroom toilet. Evidently, Home Depot has Kids Workshops once a month, so they invited The Kiddo to join them and "build" his own football hat rack (he hammered in the nails and glued in the pegs). Plus . . . he got his very own orange Home Depot apron with his name on it. Pretty cool - and it's free! We'll definitely attend the next workshop (building a whistle fire truck).
