As I was only allowed to take pics of our booth, I figured this would be a good a time as any to reveal my new gig. I'm the online marketing manager for Ju-Ju-Be, a diaper bag (and other fun accessories) company. I feel so blessed to be a part of this great team. Not only do they make beautiful and durable products, but everyone associated with this company is so sweet. They're smart and kind and really family-friendly. Plus, as you'll see below, they're all about infusing fun.
When I arrived Saturday afternoon, the booth looked like this:
The Vegas Convention Center didn't turn on the A/C while the booths were being set up. My guess is that because so many of the doors are open for the forklifts, etc., they don't want to waste the air. So we unwrapped all the bags for display in what felt like a sauna. Ugh. Thankfully we were in great company, which didn't make it seem so bad.
Here's the finished booth! It had a rock star theme, which was carried throughout wonderfully. It stood out -- in a good way -- from all the other booths. Ours was the only one I saw that had any sort of theme, and so many attendees commented on how fun ours was.
We had a stage set up with a Rock Band video game. When things got a little slow, we hopped up on stage to shake things up with a song. We also invited attendees to join the fun.
To go with the rock star theme, we offered glitter tattoos - and all sorts of folks were excited to get their own.
Check out some of the many bags Ju-Ju-Be offers!

As you might have guessed in my previous post, Brent certainly had his hands full with Em. He realized some of what I go through with her frequent night wakings (thanks to teething, which has thrown sleeping-through-the-night out the door), and what it takes to keep up with her on any given day. But he did a wonderful job -- not that I had any doubts.
I was quite busy while I was gone, which helped keep my mind off of how much I missed Em, but there was a surprising number of moms with babies at the show. My heart ached a little bit each time I saw a mom with baby in tow. I can tell ya, though, that there's nothing sweeter than walking out of the airport to find my hottie hubby and sweet baby girl waiting for me with open arms.
