Pure Belly blogging attempt #21

So as it turns out I, (Paige Smith) am horrible at blogging.  This is an odd occurrence since you can't shut me up in person but for whatever reason blogging is a challenge - which I need to overcome because I want our "fans" to get to learn more about Pure Belly and what we are up to.

What ARE we up to you ask?  So much, too much at times. I have four beautiful children- 6 yrs boy, 3 yrs boy and almost 2 yr old boy / girl twins- they keep me on my toes to say the least.  Jill my partner in crime with Pure Belly & our talented graphic artist http://www.jillbrewerdesign.com/ , she has a budding artist 5 yr old daughter and a huge (tall) 2 yr old boy.  We are a good 2 thousand miles away from one another too, I am in Northern California where the actual Pure Belly products are made/packaged/distributed (Made in the USA baby!) and Jill is in Nashville area Tennessee.  I think we do share a brain at times though. 

So needless to say we are BUSY, but loving this journey which has been so blessed.  We recently got prime space at Goore's in Sacramento, largest baby store in Northern California. 




We are so thrilled to be in an establishment like Goore's http://www.goores.com/goores/ .  The owners April & Ken Goore and all of the staff are just AMAZING and it makes us so proud that they are rooting for Pure Belly!! 


Have gone into the store on occasion to sell Pure Belly in person just because I LOVE to be able to help a Mom-to-be tackle the same issues I had during pregnancy... makes it so sweet and worth it all when women tell me thank you for bringing my products to market- will never get tired of it. 


Next on the Pure Belly agenda....  ABC kids 2011 http://www.theabcshow.com/ (biggest trade show on a wholesale level), this year they are in Louisville, Kentucky!!  I am so excited for the show and equally excited about all the sweet tea I will consume while there :)  We will be sharing a booth with one of my besties Deidrea Haysel of Hot Mama Gowns http://www.hotmamagowns.com/. We met on twitter and it was love at first inappropriate tweet ;)  We both were born with missing filters I think (but in the best possible way, just like a girl way- ya know?).  I was even lucky enough to join her on the hit TV show Shark Tank, season 2!!  http://www.hotmamagowns.com/category/shark-tank-season-2/  THAT was CRAZINESS in a word (might not be a real word).  Could seriously write an entire blog post on that... might.  Anyways, booth # 1932, just follow the sound of laughter- that will be us!! 

Hope everyone is having a wonderful Summer with the families, stop by the Pure Belly, LLC Facebook page and say Hi!  We love to hear from you all.
