Check your Mailboxes... I’m hitting the ‘Big Time!’

So, what is it that I do all day as a WAHM, what makes me so busy, what takes me out of town on business occasionally? I think the time has come for a little self-serving “Yeah Me!” - Happy Dance moment...

Time to ‘fess up; TripletDad and I created and patented the SnugEase Bib. We designed it when the triplets were babies and we were so frustrated with bibs that let the dribble, spit-up and drool down their necklines and onto their shirts.  I hated changing onesies after every bottle even though I had used a bib.  Every bib we could find, no matter how it was designed, managed to gap at the neckline.  I just wanted a bib to do the job it was intended for; to keep the baby dry.  Was this too much to ask?

Well, when we couldn’t find what we wanted, we designed it, patented it and eventually got a factory and started producing it.  It’s been a long struggle to get this bib to be well known.  But I am on a mission to make this our Break-Through year.

And the first big break is coming to a mailbox near you... Because we got our SnugEase Bib into (drum roll please) ONE STEP AHEAD catalog!!!!!  WooHoo!!!

So if you get this catalog, open the May - August edition find that SnugEase Bib and tell your neighbor, “Hey – I know that triplet mom who makes this!”

If you want to learn more about it go to www.snugease.com.

That is so cool!  Congratulations on your GENIUS  invention! 

That drool and those spit ups are out of control.

That is so cool! It looks like a great bib. I'm so impressed with people who see a problem and find a solution. I'm much more apt just to complain. :)

Bravo!

Congratulations!  ONE STEP AHEAD is a great catalog.  Now I'm going to go look through my new catalog. :)

Thank you for all the great comments!  It has been a long and twisty road to get to this point.  Definitely not an overnight success.  But this year we have seen an upturn and sales are rising faster than ever.

Thank you again for the kind words!

Nice work! I admire your perseverance and I wish you the best of luck.

p.s. I believe you may also have the Overachiever category nailed down -- quite impressive. Personally, it makes me want to take a nap. ;)
