Thanks for Watching!



By The Triad Smarty Pants Team

Thanks to all of you who watched our news segment on FOX 8 yesterday and sent us emails of congrats. Many of you asked where to find some of the items featured, and we will include that below. It will also be listed on www.myfox8.com under the Morning News page (look for "Summer Mom Tips".) We were so fortunate to be able to share some of our summer must-have items with all of you, and we have many thank-yous to send out…

First off, thanks to Shannon Smith Priddy for being a loyal TSP reader and for inviting us to be part of the Morning Show! Thanks to George at Nitsa’s & Fashionista for allowing us to film from your gorgeous store and allowing our kids to terrorize the shop in-between takes. We also thank Nitsa’s & Fashionista for dressing up the TSP Team in such stylish summer clothes to model. Thanks to Andy at Whistlestop Toy Station for allowing us to borrow those incredible toys to show on the air. Thanks to Emma Jane’s Baby & Children’s Specialty Shoppe for trusting us with the beautiful children’s clothes our kids modeled. And of course thank you to our children for waking up so early and participating! (And...a big thank you to Rachel and Allison's husbands who were brave enough to help corral the kids! - KM)

The morning was pretty comical if you watched close enough. Hopefully you didn’t see Rachel’s hands shaking too much or notice that we had to skip an entire table of toys because we ran out of time. And hopefully you didn’t see Allison put the baby in the Hotsling backwards or see little Henry almost pull the Fashionista sign off the wall. But if you did, it makes it all the more fun because it summarizes what our website is all about – the day in the life of a mom and how nothing ever goes as planned!

We shared some of our favorite Summer Must-Have Items for kid’s clothing, mom’s clothing, toys, and accessories. If you liked what you saw, here is where you can find it!

I liked all of the toys you showed - especially the flip-flops with the ribbons that you can change. We will have to check them out at Whistlestop.

I saw the very first segment on toys and I loved your idea of bringing paintbrushes to the pool to paint the concrete with water. My children will love that! I also thought the baby pool was perfect for my little one. Is that from WhistleStop Toy Station as well?

I must say that all your kids were precious. I loved the bathing suits and matching shoes on the little girls, too!

Fashionista is inside of Nitsa's in Winston, right? I am sure you said that at some point, but I missed it. I loved the clothes that the moms were modeling and wanted to check out Joe's Jeans.

I love my Joe's Jeans! Actually bought mine at Fashionista and ever since I have not worn anything else! Make sure you get a pair for everyday and one pair for going out! They fit awesome because you can get fitted for your waist, length and rise. It's almost like owning a pair of custom made jeans! They are totally worth it!
