Growth & Giggles

We are growing quickly and we are preparing for upcoming events and promotions. Stay tuned here for all the latest on what going on at Uptown Baby Couture! We are perplexed at our followers (follow us on twitter! click HERE) we got 24 within just a few short hours! WOO HOO!! But its not the numbers that matter to us, but the new blossoming relationships we can build with you - we look forward to getting to know our fans and customers!

I also want to share with you a useful website, that still many moms aren't aware of, ebeanstalk.com, a place to shop for toys that have been tested by moms and experts to be stimulating to a child's growing and developing brain. Research shows that the more you use the brain the more it grows and the more of it we use - how great is that?

God's Amazing Power and Help in our Time of need

You realize how much you love animals when your neighbors puppy (who is tied up directly in front of their front door) is yelping and you have a gut feeling to go check on the little dog. I could immediately see that the dog had just peed from the trail that was going down the driveway. At first, I thought I should check on the dog to make sure it had not been attacked by another animal as we do live in a woody area maybe something got a hold of him. But the way he was yelping, I could tell I need to hurry. Only our porch light was on, so I was trying to inspect without waking up the everyone. And upon closer inspection, I could see that one of the buckets they had used to clean the dog with (a bucket usually used in cleaning cars) had the poor little guy trapped!!! His head was caught in between the handle and the bucket, where he could breathe somehow but very panicked and afraid he would loose his breath, and to be honest I don't know with such little room how he was breathing at all. Of course I tried to free him, and to no avail. I went and moved everything from around him to get more room and still nothing. He just kept yelping you could tell he was scared and afraid to die and this is why maybe peed suddenly, if he panicked and thought he could not get free. Just a puppy, experimenting with a bucket that should have not been left there. Something so innocent you would think would not be a hazard could have been the end of this little guys life. So starting to panic, I ask God for help, and He lets me know to go wake up my husband. My husband immediately trys to free him and still is not able to either. He goes to look for wire cutters in the tool box, and could not find them, back again to try to free him. I prayed then aloud, asking Jesus - please help us! Then with God's instant help - my husband pulls off the handle to the bucket. I am so grateful to God that we could - with Only His help save this little puppy's life. It brings me to tears to think this is just a slight example, of how much Jesus loves us. If we only ask for help, He is right there. Its just proof of His wonderous and powerful love and never changing dedication to help us and meet us at our need. And Thank GOD that He saved this little angel puppy's life tonight.
