Groth Baby Blog: 27 weeks and 19 Months

Well we made it through our first big trade show. I have to say we could not have done it without the Grandparents, my mother, father and Josiah's mother all came with us to help with Maya and the booth. We needed all three of them especially because I am getting so big and really can't do to much. The trade show went extremely well and we sold more cushions then we expected. We also received some great feed back, people really liked the fabric selection and the size selection. Josiah was so great in the booth. I know he is an exceptional sales person and yoga teacher but seeing him at work in the booth made me so proud of him. You would see people come into the booth and they really were not smiling or laughing and you could tell they only wanted one cushion. By the time Josiah sat with them and fit them to their meditation posture they were smiling and joking with him. He has such a talent for relating to people and really helping people. He was in his element and it should in our sales! We also got our store up online you should check it out http://www.seatforyoursoul.com/ then click on order or cushions and it will take you to our store. I will be expanding the store to carry yoga supplies and books so keep your eyes open for that!!

Now that we are home from the trade show we are working hard on getting our Wellness center started. We have the floor and paint purchased and will start painting this weekend. Since I am pregnant and can't paint so our relatives and friends are coming to help us paint!! We are so excited about this next adventure and it is something we have been waiting to do for five years!
Maya and the baby are doing great!! Maya did so well being away from us this last weekend I was so proud of her. She would wake up in the morning and tell my Mom that Mommy and Daddy are selling cushions!! My cousin Lee and his wife Cara are living only 15 minutes away from were the trade show was, so we got to spend time with them. They have a 11 month old named Laurel and she is so cute. We took the girls swimming they both loved it! Maya has loved water from the start and I wasn't sure if she would still be into it but to our surprise she wanted to swim and she wanted to do it herself. She obviously can't do it herself yet but I think she will get the hang of it soon. Everything with the baby is going great, I am getting bigger and feeling the baby kicking me all the time. I have heartburn more with this one then with Maya. We are still thinking of names but have a few that we really like. We are happy to be home and back to our routine for now! I hope everyone is well and hopefully we will have warmer weather soon!! Here are some pictures and video!
