The Christmas period and plans for next year

Well I'm back from holidays, nice and relaxed, although very tired from the lack of sleep that comes with having toddlers in a different environment LOL.

I've worked through the emails and will be getting the orders that have been paid for, ready for posting by the end of the week.

Stocking update for December

The customs stocking is going ahead as scheduled for the 1st of December at 8pm (AEDT). There will only be Minky Days available for order.

Around the 9th, I will have a mini-stocking with a significant amount of Dreams nappies available, along with a few Minky Days as well. This is the last of the nappies that will be listed not only for this year, but also for January as well.

Future Stockings for 2010

More information coming!

November Christmas singlet winner


Here's the winning singlet for the month. Congratulations Amanda :).

November Customs

Here's a sneak peak at some of the customs that left yesterday and today...


I'm pretty much all caught up on the customs for this month :).
I'm off on holidays for 2 weeks starting Saturday, back just in time for December customs. It'll be a small amount offered (only Minky Days, embroidered and plain).
I actually have a batch of Dreams nappies in the works so you won't have to wait until next year if you're hanging out for one. I'll announce when they have been uploaded via the newsletter.

An update on Fluffy Bubs

What a week it's been for me on a personal level! While I didn't win at the Melbourne Cup (didn't even attempt that one), I certainly had my fair share of 'wins'.

My poor 3 year old came down with a terrible virus that kept his fever spiking for days. It finally broke during the week thank goodness, but he is still not quite himself so I'm hoping he will be in a few days time.

Along with that, our house hunting ventures are now over! I couldn't be happier to snap up the house before auction. It wasn't easy. There were a lot of games being played but ultimately I think we have come out well from it. Nothing will change with Fluffy Bubs. We won't be moving into the house as we plan on rebuilding in the near future (I hope!). That means my Fluffy Bubs 'work space' will continue to be confined to my dining room table. Frustrating but at least I can see a dedicated room in the future :).

So since we bought the house, it seemed the most sensible option was to shelve our holiday plans for the moment. However, we are still seeing if we can make it happen. If we can, then Fluffy Bubs will close as previously anticipated on the 14th November. I should be returning home around the 28th November.

Customs

I've just about finished all the nappies from the Customs on the 1st. I just need to make all the inserts and boosters for them all. Everything is on track to be sent by the end of the week.

The winner of the free Christmas singlet has been drawn too. This will be announced during the week.

Stocking update

The customs stocking on the 1st of December will continue as per normal. There will only be limited slots available for embroidered and plain Minky Days nappies. I am actually working on a stash of Dreams nappies in medium and large which will hopefully be ready at the end of this month/early next month. They won't be part of an official stocking, but I will send a newsletter out when they have been listed. I also have a small amount of Minky Days I'm working on too. These will all be the last nappies I list on my CongoCart site for the year.
