Who’s a Busy Mamma?

August 3 2011 By melbournemamma Leave a Comment

Wow! Time sure flies when you’re having fun. Sometimes I wonder if it should be “time sure flies because you’re so busy doing a million and one things, that you’re not even sure what day it is!”

 

Things have been a little crazy here at Melbourne Mamma HQ.

 

My little man has just recovered from a case of Hand, Foot & Mouth disease. “Isn’t that what cows get?” I hear some of you ask. I asked the exact same thing (in astonishment) when I got the call from childcare asking me to come & pick him up. Thankfully, it was only a mild case with small blisters on his hands & feet and not in his mouth. It meant I had a little boy who wanted extra cuddles from his mamma for several days & heaven forbid, anyone else try to give him one. Oh, the joys of going to childcare. I wonder what he’ll come home with this week. A finger painting would be a nice change.

 

On the market side of things, there’s so much to tell I don’t even know where to start. I’ve just had eight more retailers register to join me on the day. They’ll be bringing a fantastic range of baby & kids clothing, shoes, baby gifts & now maternity wear. I’m thrilled to announce that there will now be more than 70 designer labels on sale on the day! Every time I read through the list my heart skips a beat.

 

VIP tickets are now on sale & selling fast. If you like the sound of early entry (so you can grab the best bargains first), a goodie bag to take home (containing fabulous samples, discount vouchers & more) and bonus entries into the prize draws, then you would make the perfect VIP shopper. Tickets are $10 and are available for pre-purchase only from here.

 

Make sure you keep an eye on the “Market” and “Stallholder” pages to see who will be there on the day.

 

Hope you had time to enjoy the gorgeous sunny day.
