Looking for Promotional Company for Business Gifts

I am looking for a good reputable company where I can get promotional items (apparel, calendars, corporate gifts, etc) and have them add our company logo to the items.

Need to Find Childrens Swim Shirts!

I need rashguards/swimshirts for my boys for vacation in October. I am in the SW suburbs of chicago. Does anyone know of any "Swimsuit stores" or someplace that would carry these at this time of year? Since these shirts run very different with sizing I really do not want to order online. I am afraid I would be paying to ship them back. Thanks. J. ** I should add that I need 5 of them...5 different sizes. Lands End only has a couple sizes left to order. I am finding this everywhere. I definitely waited too long! =

Peer Pressure in Preschool?!

My daughter is 4. She has a best friend who, in my world view, is quite spoiled. For example, supposedly she "decided" at the he of two that she only wears dresses, so her mother buys her nothing but gorgeous dresses. That's all fine and dandy, but a week ago, my daughter announced she will never wear pants again because they are ugly. Since then, there's a fight just about every time I ask her to wear pants.

JFF: What Made You Happy Today?

I had to drag all 3 kids on a mazillion errands today... they were decent helpers (by that I mean the baby didn't have a meltdown!)... At the pharmacy, as I was paying, there was an older, heavyset woman with crutches struggling with the (not automatic) door. I said 'hey ladies, go hold the door for that lady'... they did, then kind of ran off for a minute. The woman kind of hollered a 'thank you' and figured the kids went back to their parent (didn't know it was me). We then went to the grocery store next door. Sure enough, as I'm paying,...

Sunscreen and Babies

I have a 3.5 month old and am looking forward to a summer at the pool, however, I've been told that I cannot use sunscreen on her until she is at least 6 months old. I've invested in several sun hats and a floatie with a huge canopy for when she and I are int he water together, but I'm still nervous about her arms. I've researched the Rashguard shirts but they are mostly short-sleeved and oly come in 12 month and up sizes. Any suggestions??
