Twins

It's been a couple of weeks since I last posted. Things here have been pretty busy. As I said last time we are in the process of moving the business out of home and into our fabulous new space. To add to this Barry has been in Europe talking to potential and current business partners. Talk about hectic. It's getting colder in Europe now and the days are getting shorter which is a huge contrast to what is happening here. Barry had a really successful trip and next week I will tell you all about it and post some photo's.
This week I have a photo I want to share of a set of twin girls all ready to go out on a rainy day. This was sent in by a very happy customer. As you can see both of the girls are happy sitting in their Toi Capes in the car capsules ready to go. I have huge respect for the mother's of twins. It must take superhuman organisational skills to get out of the house with two babies and all their gear. Joanna has not only got the girls organised she has kept them smiling.
The other thing that amazes me is that busy mums have time to sit down and tell us how they are enjoying Toi and even send has photo's. I suppose the old saying "if you want something done ask a busy person" must be true. All I can say is thank you for taking the time. it is so great to get the feedback.

Toddlers in Toi


We are in the process of moving at the moment. We have leased some premises and we are getting ready to move Toi out of our home. As with all moves this is both exciting and daunting. It will be fabulous to have space to put out display material up and greet associates and customers. The daunting part is going through all the "stuff" that we have accumulated, to work out what should be kept and what should be culled. Even this task has a bright side though. While reviewing some of the files I have come across some lovely photos that customers have sent in.
Today I am posting photo's of Will having fun on a rainy day in Auckland. In these photo's Will is 18 months old. He is wearing our small cape which is designed to go from birth to 6 years old. We have had lots of queries about how this can be so. The cape drapes over the baby whether it is being held, is in a buggy, a car seat or a backpack. The velcro at the sides makes it simple to use with all the paraphernalia that babies have. Once they are toddling it works like any rain cape. So I hope you enjoy Will at 18 months...
