Catherine Stephens, Owner and Director of BabyKakesInk, started with the inspiration of her two daughters Emma Kerri and Avery Nicole. She has loved making and creating things since she was little herself. Upon the arrival of her first daughter, she gave up a 10 year career. 21 months later they were ecstatic to have not one but two daughters to make and create beautiful clothing and bows for.
From Catherine, “It started as a dream in my heart and through the happiness I found when giving my creations as gifts for Birthdays, Christenings, and Baby showers.”
2 years later BabyKakesInk was born. The name came easy to her as she has called her daughter Baby Kakes since birth! I can relate as I also call my little girl Baby Kakes!
At BabyKakesInk they strive to not only bring forth their own creations but also those of the hottest and most unique trends today.
What I Love:
I came across BabyKakesInk while searching for some fun and stylish yet comfortable clothing
for Olivia. When i saw the baby on the home page, sporting the same name as my daughter, I knew I needed one of these! Catherine was so nice to send an Alphabet Onsie for Olivia. We chose the CoaCoa & Pink dot onsie with Olivia’s name embellished, exactly as the one pictured!
The onsie is soft yet durable. I like that the sleeves on the onsie are actually a little bit longer than your average onsie. It also seems a little thicker, a very nice quality material. The attached bow could not be cuter. It is very versatile. We took it off for naps and to wash. When Olivia gets some hair she will be able to use the bow beyond growing out of the onsie even. It is very obvious that the onsie was made with care and attention to detail. You can dress it up with a tutu or a skirt, or just pair it with pants, shorts, a diaper cover or by itself!
The Alphabet onsies are available in sizes 0-3 months to 12-18 months, and Alphabet Tees are available through size 6.
BabyKakesInk offers a variety of items ranging from the nursery, clothing, accessories, gear, gift registry and wrap, burps and bumbs and bibs and blankets. All would be perfect for gifts or your own children.

This week I’m talking about clothes, in particular a jacket that I received from Agoo. With spring here, Ryan is outside even more than he was in the winter. I kid you not, the child could live outside. I found this jacket on their website, and my first impression was that it was a great deal for a good jacket! Second impression was that it would look really cool on Ryan. We received it in a matter of two days, along with a pair of ruffle pants for Olivia (VERY cute) and a vest for Ryan, that is very nice but still a little big.

I’m not entirely sure what the exact material of the jacket is, but it is amazing. Very soft on the inside and protective on the outside, it is very flexible for my active little boy. It is durable and I know it will last us as long as Ryan will fit in it and beyond. The fabrics they use wick away moisture, are stain resistant, anti bacterial and UV protectant. Ryan and I could not love this jacket more.
You may remember this post about leg huggers. Agoo is the company behind Leg Huggers! Do you remember how much I love the leg huggers (and still do)?
a goo {n}: 1. joy from experiencing something for the first time. 2. a state of pride and great happiness. 3. gift of discovery. “had and agoo” slang 1. the exhileration after an intial experience. Synonyms: serendipity, exitement, elation, thrill, enthusiasm and delight.
Please go here for Agoo’s story.
Now, I’m not an advocate of the kids watching a lot of TV, but this is definitely something that is educational and worth watching, even as a family. There is fun music and interactive play involved that does not zone the kids into the tube. Instead they were dancing and learning about new ways to explore with every day items we have sitting around our house.
What I loved the most is that even though these are geared towards babies 6 months and up and 12 months and up, my 4 year old was able to watch and learn a few things. Such as how to interact with his 10 month old sister in a way that is more age appropriate for her, and still fun for him! To me, this was very awesome to see.
Here is some footage that I was able to capture of my two interacting with each other:
(don’t mind our crazy living room, the kids were having a blast as you can see!)
