My Oreo-lovin' Global Mama!!

A big thank you goes out to my cousin Gale for not only clothing my child in this adorable dress made be Global Mama, but also for keeping them entertained with these fabulous Oreos for children of all ages!! :)

When Ayla was born Gale sent this dress for her. I was SO excited about it! The story was on the tag. Here's a little tid-bit on Global Mamas:
"Global Mamas is the name brand for goods produced through the efforts of Women in Progress, an international not-for-profit organization assisting women of Africa in attaining economic independence. All proceeds made by Global Mamas’ sales go directly to the women producing the merchandise and to the business development programs carried out by Women in Progress. Sales of Global Mamas’ products provide dignity to African women who are now able to earn an honest living through the production of handmade batik products. By helping women to help themselves, Global Mamas is taking small steps towards helping end Africa’s dependence on foreign aid and creating a sustainable society.
By purchasing Global Mamas’ products, you are offering Sustainable livelihoods to women in Africa "
LOVE that!
And don't even try to tell me that it's not the most adorable dress you have ever seen! Plus, it is reversible!
Visit Global Mamas and get one for yourself! (or your baby!!)


Now when Nalani was a baby, we went to visit Gale and Livi. Lani and Brigg both fell in love with these little Oreos. They are actually intended for children ages 3-7, but that is only if you are going to play the matching game with them. If you are just going to pull them apart and chew on them, they are for children of all ages!!


So I pulled them out the other day. They had been packed away in the basement with all the other "baby" toys. And guess what! Ayla loved them as much as Nalani did. And THIS time, Brigg and Nalani started playing the matching game with them! Multi-purpose!!


So a big thank-you to Gale. You always seem to have the perfect gift ideas!!

So true! Gale got Tate a bath toy that he plays with in and out of the bath...it's a floating mat that has streets on it and it came with cars and an airplane that squirt water. Tate LOVES it! Gale, you're a genius! :)

Ayla, you are a little model for Global Mamas! So sweet in your dress. I just bought one of the little boys shirts for a baby gift. Love them and what a great cause! Now I better go round up those Oreos! We will need them soon.
