Win a pair of Stephie's Castle Hairclips!

I was excited when Stephie emailed me a while back to share with me her pretty hair clip business. Stephanie is a full-time working mum to 2 lovely boys, Andric (4yrs) and Aldric (1yr). While patiently waiting for her own little princess to arrive so she can dress her up one day, she is wasting no time indulging in her passion for handicraft and dolling up many other princesses. Stephanie was really sweet to send me a pair of clips as gifts for Vera and Nadya.

I really loved the clips she gave us and was really impressed with the workmanship. All the materials she uses are specially imported from overseas and the clips are lined with quality velvet ribbons. I decided to support her lovely business by getting another pair from her. I will be giving away this lovely pair of clips to a lucky mom reading this. If you would like to win this clip, just be the first person to drop me an email at hello@pupsikstudio.com with the heading "I want Stephie Castle's clip for my princess!" and the clip will be yours, instantly!

======

Congratulations to Lynes Che for being the earliest bird to chope and win these gorgeous clips from Stephie's castle for her princess! We will be doing more giveaways in the coming weeks so mommies, daddies, whoever reading this, remember, the early bird usually gets the worm!=))

Happy Thanksgiving!

It has been a crazy week and I have to admit that I almost felt like I was going nuts with both babies screaming, crying and seeking "urgent attention" at the same time. I suspect there is almost a conspiracy going on between them both. Plus there are tons of other small nitty gritties that cropped up over the week that had to be tended to. And for some strange reason, I have been feeling a compelling need to clear out my old stuff, particularly the wardrobe which is crazy cos that is the last thing I should be doing at a time like this. There were times when I feel like dropping everything and retreat to some mountain just to take a breath of fresh air and recharge. I need sleep...undisturbed sleep.

Despite everything over the past week, I am grateful to have a pocket of time this morning just to sit down for my quiet time and give thanks to God for all He has given me. At times like this, it is just so easy to be distracted and suck oneself into self-pity and self-absorption in our own little world and forget about all that He has so freely given us; Food, a home, a healthy body, loved ones...things we often take for granted.

While browsing through some of my favourite Christian blogs and website this morning, I am reminded of the verse in I Thessalonians 5:18 which says,

"In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."

I know that there are many mommies out there going through the same lack of sleep and adjustments as myself and I just want to say "Hang on"! Here is a little something I have been listening to this morning that I would like to share with you and hope you will be able to seek comfort in.

Enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving!

How to wear your Pupsik Pouch (NEW instructional video)

We have finally got down to improving our instructional videos to guide mommies using the pouch for the first time.

This video shows you how you should wear your pouch correctly. It is quite easy once you get the hang of it.

The padding should be facing out if you are doing the cradle/kangaroo carry. For the front/hip carry, the padding is placed inside under baby's knees to cushion them.\

For more detailed videos, please visit instructional page on the main website.
