It's finally here!
We are in our permanent space in the
Blakeney Village Shops!
It took us a while, but our new store is almost complete! We moved in over
the New Year holiday and are just adding the finishing touches. We would love to have you all visit our new home...
To celebrate, we're announcing our Open House/Grand Reopening Week!
All the details are below for special events. Please remember to register for
your favorite classes and vendors! Normally many of these types of classes have a fee, but during our events, you can come and get your questions, even those breastfeeding questions, answered for FREE! Plus, several of our vendors will be handing out their own samples during their events!
(And, yes, everyone's favorite Handfuls Handprints is back just for our Grand Opening Event)!
All week long, celebrate with sales and specials! You can also register all week long for drawings to be given away on the 16th (and no, you do not need to be present to win)!
** We are expecting a huge new shipment in today, Friday, January 8th! We would suggest to start shopping this weekend because we all know all the cutest items go the quickest! Special in-store only sales start today through next week! We are also launching new locally designed gift and accessory lines (we love those mompreneurs) exclusively at belly elan!
We hope you can join us for more than one event of interest to you, but we would love to have you stop by just to say hello!
Stay tuned to your emails, our website or Facebook page for more details. Special Events, giveaways and freebies!

"Returning to Work After Baby"
Returning to work after adding another family member to the household can be one of the biggest challenges a parent faces. Am I going to be emotionally happy with the decision to return to work? What is my best childcare option? How will I get out the door on time each morning? What if I miss my child's first milestone? These are all questions that often wring at the the heart of an expectant mother and Sweet Pea Baby Planners can help you work through these questions and ensure you are both emotionally and organizationally ready for returning to the workforce!

Ultra soft, sanitized, 100% cotton diapers are delivered to your door on a weekly basis so you don’t get stuck with the dirty work!
