Burp Cloth Product Details

Burp cloths are available in two different styles:

1 - Premium cloth diaper (6-ply Gerber) burp cloth with selected fabric going vertical. It is approximately 14" x 19". You will love the thickness of this diaper! It is much more absorbent and softer than the standard diaper thickness. This is a great burp cloth for new infants as well as the babies that continue to spit up through their first year.















2- Soft burpie made of one side flannel and one side selected fabric. It is a simple curved design approximatly 10" x 16". The burp cloth is extremely soft and absorbent for the babies skin.
It is great small size and folds nicely for your diaper bag, purse, car, etc.


You can select the fabric of your choice for either style. Please indicate your fabric choice in the pay pal instructions.

Thought for the week - August 3, 2008

Well, I had good intentions of thinking I would post a daily thought for the day. As you can see, I didn't get that done over the past two weeks. The reason, well, it wasn't laziness or idleness as you may think. It was because I was living life and trying to balance the many hats a mom has including starting this new business, being a mom, a wife, a friend and daughter.

The past two weeks, Mama Joy & Co (Mama Joy, Marty and GG) were busy planning new products, making inventory, product research and planning blog updates. Whew, are you tired yet. I was :-). In those two weeks, ALOT has happened in my family and friends' lives. This makes me reflect on the fact that just because something isn't visible or heard, it doesn't mean that you are invisible. Someone is always paying attention to what we do or don't do. Remember to priortize and get done what you can do based on what is important in your life today and tomorrow (do not dwell in the past).

I'm not going to promise to provide a new thought daily, but I do want to blog often (as long as it doesn't interfere with my priorities...loving God, my husband, my children, family, friends, and work).

Thought for the weekend - July 18th

TGIF&W- Thank God it is Friday and the weekend!! Who else is thinking that?

Everyday is a good day as long as you choose it to be. . . this is probably a better thought for the middle of the week (or Thursday's in my case). However, I needed it today/tonight.

So, who feels like an overtired, unappreciated person (notice I didn't say woman). We are moms, wives, friends, sisters and daughters who at times don't even feel like ourselves unless we choose to. So, put on your happy face, take a bath, cut your nails or whatever else it that makes you feel better....so you can be the woman that God wants you to be...to be the wife, the mom, the friend or daughter that you want to be. Don't let the mundane tasks, circumstances or thoughts get in the way.

This weekend, we are taking the family and getting away. I'm excited to spend quality time as a mom and wife. Right now, I feel like a big burp cloth, milk truck and 'no' natsi. However, I'm going to rid myself of these and remember who I am and be that person.

Have a great weekend!!

Thought for the day - July 16th

And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it. 1 Corinthians 10:13

Thought for today - Tuesday, July 15th

"The painter should not paint what he sees, but what will be seen" Swiss artist, Paul Klee

Thank goodness for mess free Crayola markers and paint. When my two year old refused a nap today (after crying for over an hour and a half), he wanted to color. Of course, I wasn't up for real markers or paint. So, I gave him the 'magic' markers that I trusted to be safe for my house. If you have ever used these markers, you know that the color appears a few seconds later (and the paint takes even longer). For a two year old, the time seems alot longer than it does for us. If he had given up and needed the instantaneous results, he would have had nothing.

By doing nothing, your outcome is assured....trust and something beautiful may happen.

Thought for today - Monday, July 14th

Dream about tomorrow, but live for today.

Monday's are always hard for me. As it is the beginning of the work week (for me it is my husband leaving me with two kids and most of the time they are screaming at the same time). I seem to want to start completing everything on my to do list NOW or wanting to escape (where can I find a sitter :)). Instead, I need to remember to take time for the hug from my husband and kids. Enjoy the quality time watching Curious George or rocking one to sleep. Enjoy the silence. Enjoy the laughter. Or best yet, enjoy the asking for mommy. There will be a time when they want nothing to do with me.

Embrace your life and enjoy it the moment.
