</tbody></table>Yes, it's official. <i><b>Officially genius! </b></i>Mountain Buggy has brought us the terrain, all-terrain jogger and well, it's hot! Not to mention -- it's the <b><i>official</i></b> stroller for Baby Boot Camp and is used by professional runner, Kara Goucher, who came in 5th at the Boston Marathon. As a runner - this stroller will become your new <b><u>best friend.</u></b> We were <i>beyond shocked</i> at how well it transitions from grass to pavement from the boardwalk to the beach. Yes, we said it -- the beach! <i>What other jogging stroller do you know makes running on the beach easy?</i> <a href="http://mountainbuggy.com/en/component/content/article/103#_gallery">Mountain Buggy's Terrain</a> does it! See why we said genius?! Not a runner? The Terrain gives you reason to start.<br />

Snow, sand, grass - you name it, it plows right on through with no problems. Not to mention the<b> 3-mode front weel </b>can be locked back or forward, or left in the full swivel postiion. Don't worry about your Littles head bobbling back and fourth and all over the place. We found, because of the <b>adjustable tracking and shock absorbing suspension system</b> - they are in for a <i>oh-so-smooth ride</i>. With an<b> adjustable seat position from full recline to upright</b> they can enjoy the not-so-bumpy ride. And never worry when dodging traffic in the city or loosing control on a trail because the <b>hand operated active brake</b> easily helps control speed. </div><div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Now, it gets even better with the <a href="http://shop.mountainbuggy.com/freerider-stroller-board">Freerider</a>! While one rides in the stroller another Little can grab a free ride. The <a href="http://shop.mountainbuggy.com/freerider-stroller-board">Freerider stroller board</a> ($99.99) <span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">attaches via a connector that fastens to the rear axle of the buggy and let's your Little ride close! They will just love it. But than, it gets better, yet again! <i>(is that even possible? oh, yes!</i>) The quick release button attaches and detaches stroller board from the <a href="http://shop.mountainbuggy.com/freerider-connector-2">connector </a>so they can ride freely if desired. <b><u>Best invention ever!</u></b> No more having to push the stroller and carry the bike when your Little gets tired. The <a href="http://shop.mountainbuggy.com/freerider-stroller-board">freerider</a> does it all for you. The connector can even be positioned anywhere on the rear axle -- so change it up when needed. We love the <b>rear wheel brake</b> when in scooter mode,<b> grip pad, and anti-slip surface too</b>! <i>Safety first, always</i>. It is<i> pretty amazing</i> how the </span><a href="http://shop.mountainbuggy.com/freerider-stroller-board">freerider</a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"> followed our buggy in every and any direction.

No searching or digging for lost peas in this seat thanks to the<i> seamless cushion</i>. No more cracks for last weeks chicken to hid in. You can also thank the <b>aerocore seat insert</b> which is <b><i>waterproof, ultra supportive, durable, anti-slip</i></b> material that is -- <i>just wait for it</i> -- hypo-allergenic and odor resistant! <i>Seriously, what's not to love?</i> The seat can't get much easier to wipe down! For those who really need to disinfect -- just remove the seat insert! <b>Easy as pie.</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We <b>absolutely love</b> that your Little can just hang out in the kitchen with you! <b>Forget the bouncy chair</b>, this is the<b><u> perfect spot</u></b> to hang out while you cook or entertain! It is <b>one of the only highchairs</b> that elevate to counter top height. Just take the tray off (<i>strap your Little in of course!</i>) and it is perfect for the kitchen island. The innovative design makes it easy to adjust to any height and slide under a kitchen table for when your Little outgrows a high chair! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #232323; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">One of the <b>best seats</b> with baby’s comfort in mind! <i>Completely washable</i> too! </span></li>

The sun hood works perfect in both rear-facing or front facing mode providing lots of adjustable coverage. </span></li>

<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #232323; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">It grows with your little! The smart is<b> the most adaptable stroller </b>from newborn to toddler! Attach a peanut bassinet ($149.99), add a car seat ($39.99) or change the direction the seat faces. You can’t ask for much more as a parent! </span></li>

And well, I didn't want to be the mom that everyone was looking at as I toted everything and the kitchen sink to the beach. So, I was <b>presented with a challenge.</b> <i>What stroller do I take that not only holds my littles but all the extra baggage too?</i> Not to mention, the thought of getting stuck in the sand as everything topples over. <i><b>Get the picture?</b></i> We all have been there before and it is <b>so not the fun</b> part of beach vacationing or a pretty sight. Lucky for me, I feel in love <b>all over again</b> when phil&teds sent me <a href="http://philandteds.com/products/push/verve">The Verve.</a><br />

</div><div><b><i>The best part for me?</i></b> That I could wipe it clean after a <b>mountain of sand</b> had made its way in after 8 hours on the beach along with a side of ketchup and who knows what else! You can<b> thank the washable seat pad</b> for that one. Another perk is the <b>contoured ventilated seat system.</b>My little never even broke a sweat. Pretty good considering my 3 month old slumbered in it most of the day! The verve is<b> contoured for ergonomic support</b> and ventilated for temperature regulation. The<b> soft padded liner comforts and supports </b>those little ones. And when your strolling down the boardwalk and one runs one way and the other another - don't fret, the brake is there with a touch of a button conveniently located on the handle. Now that's what we call handling braking at your fingertips! It also is <b>only 28lbs</b> so you won't struggle getting it open and closed & is <i>feather light</i> when pushing which delivers an effortless stroller experience - just another check of the <b><u>"why we love the verve"</u></b> list.<br />

</tbody></table></div><div>A few more reasons why we just can't stop pushing<a href="http://philandteds.com/products/push/verve"> the Verve</a>:</div><div><br />
</div><div>- <b>Sleek, Stylish and Elegant.</b> Yes, we are talking about a stroller. The dual front wheels with suspension give smooth handling and serious pavement control with dual front wheels and balanced shock absorbers. </div><div>- <b>Triple recline double kit. </b>Smoothest, one-hand reclining. When they are snoozing away they won't even know you reclined to lay back position from upright. Same goes for the front seat! The infinite adjustment from newborn lie-flat to upright 6 year old is just beyond perfection. It fits for a smooth transition. </div><div>- <b>Ultra compact stand fold!</b> Don't worry, it doesn't take up your whole trunk - you have room for shopping bags! Folds with or without the double kit and my favorite part -- it self stands for easy storage at home. </div><div>- <b>Safety certified for back seat drivers!</b> The verve is safety certified in all three recline modes! You won't be juggling littles when loading and unloading two kids -- it easily carries one child in the rear and none in the front.<br />

</div><div><br />
</div><div>So, let's think back to circa 1990 when the double stroller was that purchase everyone dreaded because of hideous the choices were. <b>phil&teds bleeds perfection because style is not an option</b> -<a href="http://philandteds.com/products/push/verve"> the Verve</a> is your latest fashion accessory. <b>Forget the handbags mommas</b>. If you got littles ones -<i> this is a serious must-have.</i><br />

Most parents don’t know reading to young children lays an essential foundation for literacy that’s needed before they ever set foot in a classroom. The reality is, 1 in 3 children in the U.S. begin kindergarten behind, and most will <i>never </i>catch up. The millions of children<span style="color: #1f497d;"> </span>in the U.S. living in poverty are even more likely to fall into this statistic, as many grow up in homes without a single book.<u></u><u></u></span><br />

<br />
<div></div>My name is Hayley and I am 31 years old with 2 adorable children, Ethan (4) and Ainsley (almost 2). I am married to an amazing guy that I met in the 8th grade and we love to laugh and enjoy life. Before children, I was a teacher and a part-time drug rehab counselor, but LOVE that I now get to be a stay at home/work at home mother. I am very lucky to have the best of both worlds. <br />

<div style="text-align: center;"><strong>{2} When did you realize you wanted to open a shop on Etsy?</strong></div><br />
<br />
<div></div>I have always had a love of sewing and various crafts, but I didn't have an outlet for it. When my son was diagnosed with Autism at the age of 2, I knew that I needed desperately to have a place for my creative abilities. I felt so immersed and involved in his therapies and hospital visits and I was losing myself. I started researching and creating and posting on<a href="http://mousehousecreations.blogspot.com/"> my blog</a> and friends and strangers kept telling me to start an etsy store. So I did.<br />

<div></div>Sewing is in my blood. My Great-Grandmother taught my Mum how to sew when she was a young child and in turn, my Mum taught me when I was a young girl. Some of my fondest memories as a child are going to the fabric store and dreaming of all the projects that my Mum and I could create together in our sewing room. We would make pillows, dresses for my dolls, little blankets, and clothing for me, all on our vintage Singer sewing machine. I would watch my Mum create bedding and curtains and I just knew I would want to do that one day. <br />
<br />

<div></div>When I am not sewing or doing my other crafts (which I am doing all the time lately!), I am playing with my kids, remodeling/redecorating my house (check out my blog!), refinishing furniture, and trying to relax with my husband, while we listen to some music (Jack Johnson or Led Zeppelin are bands of choice!)<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span> <br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I am a mother of two beautiful little girls (ages 2 and 5). By day, I'm a marketing manager and have worked for the same company for just over 7 years. I've always been overly ambitious and enjoy a challenge. I've</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">always wanted to start my own business, but after a few failed attempts, I decided it was best to let the idea fall into my lap. In 2009, when my oldest was old enough to realize that she wanted to be a princess and a</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">ballerina, I realized how expensive things would be (especially with two girls). I decided to learn how to make a tutu for her because the ones I was finding online were so expensive. I posted a picture of the finished product on Facebook and instantly got requests from friends to create a tutu for their girls as well. Less than a week later, I had a website, a Facebook fan page and a new business. I wanted to sell tutus and hair accessories at a reasonable price. Luckily, I have the most amazing husband who I like to refer to as "super-dad". With his help, I was able to make time to create and sell.</span><br />

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">{5} Do you have any tips for Mom Owned brands trying to get started?</span></b><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span> <br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The most important thing is to have a plan. If you're selling tangible items, make sure to have beautiful pictures. Contact local photographers who may be willing to barter with you. You don't have to spend a fortune to get your business up and running. Do your research! What are others charging for similar products? Be competitive! And most of all, don't be afraid to network with other mompreneurs. You'd be surprised what a close-knit community you'll find.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Sky's the limit for us! We just sponsored the Eva Longoria Rally for Kids With Cancer in Miami and we donated 10% of every purchase to the American Cancer Society. We will be attending a pre-Emmy's gifting suite in September. We also just launched a brand new line,<a href="http://waytutucute.com/category_61/Leg-Candy.htm"> Leg Candy</a>, at the Baby Expo and the buzz has already started! Leg Candy offers leg/arm warmers in a variety of bright colors and patterns. They are available in sugar free (plain), extra sugar (swarovski crystals on one leg) or sugar rush (swarovski crystals on both legs). They come wrapped like a piece of candy and are ready to give as a gift.</span><br />

</tbody></table><span style="font-family: inherit;">Read on to see what inspired the <strong>MOM</strong>preneur and what is up next for <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/70580170/lily-pants-eisley-rae-clothing">Eisley Rae</a> in our <em>exclusive </em>chat with Alyson.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><strong>{1.}Tell us about yourself & your shop, Eisley Rae?</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Hi! My name is Alyson and I live in Southern California with my husband and two kids. I have a 7 year old daughter and a 3 year old little boy. Eisley Rae is where you can find all kinds of cute clothing for your little ladies & lads!</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><strong>{2.}When did you begin sewing? </strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I've sewn here and there since I was young, but I didn't really start sewing on a regular basis until I was pregnant with my son.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><strong>{3.}What made you decide to open your Etsy shop? </strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">After spending way too much money on shopping for customs for my daughter, I decided it was something that I could do. I started out making her a couple of summer dresses and people began asking where I got them and if I would make one for their child...the rest is history.</span><br />
<br />

</tbody></table><span style="font-family: inherit;"><strong>{4.} Where do you pull your inspiration from? </strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Most of my inspiration comes from my daughter, Etsy, Pinterest, fabric and the season! I love that my 7 year old will suggest something, I'll search for fabric, buy it and make our ideas come to life! Even just searching for fabric online is a great inspiration to me, to see a beautiful print and think that it'd look great as a dress, skirt, ruffles, etc!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><strong>{5.} What is your favorite part about having your own biz?</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I absolutely love that I can work at my own pace. Not having a boss or a "strict" schedule. I try to always allow extra time in case "life happens", to keep my customers happy. But, most of all, I love the relationships that I've gained from "working" in the handmade community! I've made some lifelong friends and learned some wonderful lessons from women who really inspire me. Being home with my kids is the icing on the cake though!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><strong>{6.} Do you have any other favorite Etsy shops?</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I have SO many favorite Etsy shops! Lately I'm in LOVE with everything over at <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/bubblewrappd">Bubblewrapp'd</a>! But, I also love <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/MamaMatryoshka?ref=pr_shop">Mama Matryoshka</a> for adorable paper goods & party supplies. Very soon, I plan to order a wristlet from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/hiyaluv720?ref=pr_shop">Hiya Luv</a>. There are so many more that I could go on and on about!</span><br />

</tbody></table><span style="font-family: inherit;"><strong>{7.} What is up next for Eisley Rae?</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This summer I'm working on lots of new things for Eisley Rae. I'm excited to start on the home decor line which will include pillow, framed hair clip/head band/bow holders, framed jewelry racks and lots more! There will surely be lots of ruffles and adorable stuff for little girls and their mamas! </span><br />
