My attorney (love ya, hubs) brought home my corporate annual report paperwork last night. As I wrote a check to the Secretary of State of Illinois to keep my "Inc." properly paid for, it dawned on me that this was the 5th time I've done so. I looked closely at the form and it was dated 10/25/2005, EXACTLY five years to the day that I had incorporated Made by Angie.
That, my friends, calls for an anniversary sale! The code
FIVE at
checkout will give you 25% off your order, through November 5th. Feel free to share this code with any/all of your friends!

| Max, my tester |
Five years ago, I was burnt out on "Baby Story" (6 months pregnant). Max (age 1.5) slept soundly every afternoon for four hours, and I turned naptime into work time -- Made by Angie was born.

A few months later, Nate was born. Plenty of diaper changes in our house - and no shortage of wipes! Life moves so fast. It's hard to believe Max is 6 (and a half, as he reminded me of his half-birthday on Oct 21st) and the Tater is almost 5 (there's that number again!). The kids are no longer in diapers (!!!), but we use gobs of wipes still every day -- and are thankful for all the new babes being born who need fancy wipe cases in their lives ;)

Plenty of amazing firsts to smile about, as well as recent family happy occasions. Be sure to bookmark Aunt Lindsay's blog,

I sure could use one of those four hour naps right about now, but as they say (not sure who says that really!) sleep is overrated. Lots of work (and play!) to be done -- stay tuned, Made by Angie has some new products in the works :)
Here's to the next 5 years - Happy Anniversary to me!
Although every day should be Small Business Day, I support this movement, and you should too! There's a great deal for American Express accepting businesses ... shop at one on Saturday, November 27th and receive a $25 credit on your next Amex statement! Unfortunately, Made by Angie does not qualify (although we do accept Amex!) because we're online-only ... but that shouldn't stop you from shopping at your favorite small businesses on Saturday!
