Sex and The City: The Movie - Book from Harper Collins


I think I might have been the only Sex and The City fan who didn't see the movie last night! But, I did get a sneak peek at the divine book "Sex and The City: The Movie".

This beautiful book features mouth-watering bonus features not available anywhere else: behind-the-scenes stories from Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis, Cynthia Nixon, star and producer Sarah Jessica Parker, writer and director Michael Patrick King, as well as producers and other key cast and crew members.

What a lovely book for SATC fans. With over 300 pages about the movies plot, fashion and SATC's guide to NYC, "Sex and The City: The Movie" is the-must-have book for all you die hard fans.

The pages are filled with every out fit each lady wore, with the designer listed as well -- so you can find that gorgeous Norma Kamali bathing suit Miranda wore or what shoes Carrie is wearing!!

I'm glad I got a sneak peek of the book before I head out to the movies to watch my girls. But, warn you the book does give away the plot -- so if you don't want to know what happens then buy the book after you see the movie.

* Bonus -- win a copy of the "Sex and The City: The Movie" book, autographed by SJP* You can enter here*

Thank you to Harper Collins for our copy of this wonderful book. We are donating the copy to KC's Cancer Cushion Fund's 2nd annual Pub Night to help families with cancer and need a little financial help!

Storyboards by CANE Innovations



I love finding up and coming companies to share with York Region Parent readers. An on Sunday I attended the Mompreneur Spring Trade Show in Toronto and found that company! Storyboards by CANE Innovations is an amazing new family run company that creates handmade growth charts with a difference! These are not just any growth charts -- they are Storyboards of your child's life. The Storyboards are 5 feet tall and handpainted, with a place to hold precious keepsakes including
  • child's first tooth,
  • lock of hair,
  • and hospital bracelet.
AS well as a place holder to hold your child's first shoes, a customized tag with their name and 4 picture frames adds a personal touch.
On the back is a growth chart to mark through the years and places to record their milestones, including their first words, birth weight and height, time of birth, age for crawling, walking and talking.

Cogatulations to CANE Innovations! You can visit them this weekend at the Babytime show.

Daddyo Productions

You know when you take a perfect picture of your child, but the background is not what you'd like it to be or there is just something a little off? Well, I took a perfect first smile picture of my 2 month old a little while ago and all was perfect, except that I took it on her change table and you can actually ready the safety instructions on the table.

What's a mom to do? You can turn to the experts at Daddyo Productions to help make your picture really perfect. As they say a picture is worth a thousand words -- so I will let the before and after speak for themseleves.
