Birth, Baby & Bonding Fair {Events}


I had a ton of fun at the Birth, Baby & Bonding Fair with some fellow vendor gals Sandie Gilbert (Independent Consultant for Mary Kay & Co-owner of G & G Blooms), Page Gilbert (Owner of Clearly Unique Designs & Co-owner of G & G Blooms) and Tara Phillips (Independent Consultant for Thirty-One).

The day was filled with many new moms, pregnant women, the daddy's & many children of all ages. Besides tons of vendors the attendees were able to check out a fashion show, vote for the best breastfeeding photo (from the top 10) and pick up a ton of FREE stuff, not to mention win some great raffle prizes.



Above & Below: A shot of most of the room filled at the opening of the event, which was help at the University Plaza Waterfront Hotel in Stockton.


These cute little beanies were made by a company called Kozee Kabootees. They also carry cloth diapers essentials, nursing covers and much more. If you are interested in some of their work they can be contacted at kozeekabootees@gmail.com & can be found on facebook HERE.


Just one of the MANY bags Ms Tara had on site to show off for new Mommy's from the Thirty-One collection, which is coming out with a new fall catalog within the next month.
During the event she was also collecting names to add to her new endeavour of baby registers, where new Mommy's could sign up with a wish list and Tara would make cards to mail out to friends and family who could purchase off the wish list for baby showers.
For more information email at taralynnlynn@yahoo.com or you can join her facebook group HERE.


This table was filled with TONS of cute little bows and of course the Disney ones stood out for me.
The company who makes then is called Abby's BowTique and can be contacted at abbys.bowtique@yahoo.com & you can find them on facebook HERE.


Every mom wants to look their best event after have a baby so independent stylist Melanie Figueroa Christensen was on hand with her collection of Stella & Dot. She can be found on facebook HERE or online HERE.


Also at the event were many informational tables and hospitals. These yummy treats were from Dameron Hospital.


Half way through the day many women and their children strutted the catwalk during a fashion show with clothes from Old navy Maternity, jewelry from Stella & Dot, bags from Thirty-one and bows & diaper covers from Abby's BowTique & Kozee Kabootees, respectively.




One of the final things that took place was the announcement of the winners from the breastfeeding contest. A winner was picked for best armature photo (far left), professional photo (middle) and people's choice (far right).
