Judy arrived to work at Attached to Baby as a model, but I wasn’t so sure that a realistic mannequin was appropriate in the baby sling business for photos. Anyway, I was at REI yesterday and found some clothes on sale so on a whim, bought some clothes for her and my husband and I set her up last night.

And here she is, sporting an Oopa Do’rag, an EllaRoo Organic Mahogany ring sling and of course REI attire.

The photo is a little on the dark side, as I posted the photo straight from the warehouse shipping computer. And of course, it is always a rare treat when I get a real live model! Here’s my 3 year old daughter modeling an Oopa silk Do’rag and a Rockin’ Baby kid’s sling:

This week has been a wee bit scary as my main computer here in my home office burned out its video graphics card. It is a powerful computer, and although most important things are backed up online, I still had photos that were on the computer that weren’t backed up yet! Luckily, David figured out the video card died and overnighted me a new one, and hooray, the computer is alive again!

Soon I’ll write about my plans for putting my entire business online - mail, banking, Quickbooks, backups, etc…

Here’s our last of the year contest, and it’s a biggest we’ve done! We’re giving away over $1000 in shopping sprees for submissions to our ATB Photo Contest Thanksgiving 2007 as our way of saying ‘thank you’ to our customers!
