While reading US News online today I came across an article that addresses concerns on every parents mind these days: swine flu. How do I prevent it and what do I do if they get it? A statistic from this article states that of 76,500 tweens tested (ages 10-14) a staggering 77 percent tested positive. Read the below article for more information about the swine flu vaccine and a mother’s frustrations with the whole ordeal.

Babe Ease has been invited, once again, to attend the 2nd annual ABC Spring Conference in Louisville from May 3 - 5. This event is by invitation only! We’ll be launching several new prints and a whole new line at the show! ABC reports that only the top brands, as surveyed by independent specialty retailers, are invited to exhibit and participate in the conference.

Would you risk the horrors or stinky pet breathe to save your four legged friend’s life? That is the slightly silly question being answered in a poll conducted by the associated press. Nationwide, 1,166 pet owners were asked this question (among a few others): Would you be at least somewhat likely to perform CPR on your pet in the event of a medical emergency? For me the answer would be of course I would! Given that I had the proper CPR training, why wouldn’t I do everything in my power to save my pet’s life?

One of my favorite things about this time of year is all of the opportunities to get in my kitchen and bake. Since I have many mouth watering holiday recipes I thought it would be nice to share them all with you and give my readers the opportunity to share theirs as well. I will be posting them one by one randomly throughout the next 2 weeks so stay tuned!

Metro Parent magazine (based in Portland, Oregon) is hosting a BopStarBaby: Baby Makes3 basket giveaway, and they’ve featured it in both their October 2009 issue and their Annual Baby Guide! Next month, watch for Pregnancy Magazine’s new contest; there’ll be a BabyMakes3 basket as the grand prize. Good luck to all who enter!

We’re so happy to tell you that a lovely Honeywear™ organic fabric baby sling is in Earnshaw’s October 2009 issue!
It’s featured in an adorable photo illustrating a story about babywearing titled “Wrap It Up.” This is the first placement for BopStarBaby’s newest participant, and we’re sure there’ll be many more to come!
Elegant Baby®’s new sock set was also in that issue of Earnshaw’s, featured in “Pampered: Baby Products & News”, and Pregnancy & Newborn’s November 2009 issue included Elegant Baby’s oversized rubber duckie in their “Bath Time Is Beautiful” story.

In all the excitement of Halloween and our new fall products I almost forgot to clue my readers in to our new October clips of the month. In contrast to the general theme of October which is celebrated with symbols like ghoulish goblins, wart faced witches and plump pirate faced jack-o-lanterns, our October clippies showcase a festive holiday season look, without being too garish. After all, we have our Halloween clips for that! Smile Also, around this time of the year every one seems to be gearing up for their holiday shopping .
