Wow guys!
I totally apologize for keeping you all waiting!
Things have been SO CRAZY in my little world these past couple of weeks...
My amazing myspace customers have always done a great job keeping me an extremely busy work-at-home mommy. By day I'm a slave to my little princess and by night I'm a slave to the sewing machine.
But recently, my etsy shop (www.JMBABYBOUTIQUE.etsy.com) has been getting some great business, and I've really been racking up some orders this week! So orders from both sites have just been piling...and piling...plus I plan on getting an actual website in the next 1-2 weeks.
YIKES!!!
Be careful what you wish for, right?
Actually, I'm completely stoked about this...I just need to get some much-needed organization done...it seems like I spend more time looking for the scissors or a certain color thread than getting any sewing done!
My workroom is such a disaster zone, it makes me miserable to even think about working in it. This has been killing my mojo...I need to set aside a night from sewing orders and just cleeeeeaannnnnnnnnn my little tail off. SO much easier said than done!
My personal life lately has been INSANE - lot's of *new* chaotic, stressful, and beautiful changes. I've barely had any time at all to be on the internet unless it's to look up a customer's shipping address.
So again, I apologize for all of you awaiting bowband giveaway participants....
AND WITHOUT FURTHER A DUE, THE JM GLAMOUR BOWBAND WINNER IS......
******TERYN ASHLEY******

Please message me if you are interested in placing a JM GLAMOUR BOWBAND order & I will give you free shipping!
Off to sewing I go!
Someone keep these eyelids open for me...
I'm getting so SICK of coffee!
XOXO JM
Oh, man this is exciting!
I've always wanted to start my own blog because I enjoyed reading them so much...and I'm not sure why I didn't do this sooner..maybe because I was worried about spending my time and effort into writing a long passage, only to have no one else read it but myself LOL. Pathetic, huh? Well, I'm gonna grow a pair of big ones and do this mamajama..hopefully you all find me interesting enough to keep checking on my blogspot :)
Let's start with introducing myself. My name is Janissa and I am the lucky mother of the most amazingly adorable little human being on the planet! But don't take my word for it, see for yourself ;)


Her daddy has held the key to my heart ever since I was 16 years old. They have such a strong and beautiful connection...I love to watch both of their reactions every day when he comes home from work - they truly adore each other.

My family is the heart and soul of everything that I do.
In my spare time (and by "spare" I mean between 11 p.m. ~ 7 a.m. every night while babygirl is asleep), I love to release my creative side by sewing unique and adorable baby clothes and accessories.
I do not have an actual website yet, one day soon I'm sure, but for now you can find me at www.myspace.com/jmbabyboutique & www.jmbabyboutique.etsy.com . I am really surprised and thankful at the success my shop has had on myspace...and trust me, Janelle has the toys and shoes to show for it ;) lol
So, I hope you guys like the look of my blog :) It took me f-o-r-e-v-e-r to play around with the images and colors to create my background and banner. I call it "Funky Urban Chic", something I like to think of myself as being.
Alright, let's get to blogging!!!
I've always wanted a cat...and every time I even mentioned the word, Jake would snicker and say there was no way in hell we'd ever get one. He'd even go as far as to say if I brought one home, he might just "accidentally leave the door open". Kidding, I'm sure, but it sure as heck kept me from bringing a cat home LOL
After 2 years of us living together and me begging for a cat, you can imagine my surprise when he came home with this yesterday:

Isn't she beautiful!? She's absolutely perfect..and is the sweetest and most affectionate little kitty.
We named her Leila. It is pronounced LIE-la and not LAY-la. Short for Dehleila, her full name. Janelle took to her right away....running after her everywhere little Leila would go. Trying to feed her and share her toys with the one pound kitty.
I think it's going to be the start of a very special relationship...

More pics of sweet Leila :)





After hours of playing with Leila this morning, Janelle and I thought it was time for an outdoor photoshoot to show off my newest creation - the JM GLAMOUR BOWBAND. In the photos my daughter is wearing the Cotton Blossoms Glamour Bowband with added rhinestones....I absolutely adore it!
I will be offering these bowbands in my boutique soon. I just shipped off around 18 bowbands to my photographer to be modeled...as soon as she gets back to me with the pictures, I can't wait to offer them to all of you!
I can never choose just one picture..maybe you could help me narrow down the best pictures...I'll number each one and you can leave a comment telling me your favorites :) This will help big time when uploading them into the album.
Here we go!
