*Finally we are super excited about:Make sure you let all of the grandparents you know to come on in for some great shopping on September 6th.

All is well at POPIN!

Other than tons of rain we survived Fay pretty well, we opened back up Saturday and were so glad to see that all of you were as ready to get out of the house as we were... I managed to get a pic of one of our cutest visitors as his mommy was trying on one of our new market slings (once she saw his grin she couldn't resist getting the sling!!)

Our Lingering Tropical Storm...

Well...Fay just won't go away. We will be closed again today (the Mayor of Jacksonville pretty much told everyone to stay home for safety reasons) Schools are obviously closed again today. I just heard on the news that about 65,000 homes are without power now - we had a pretty hard hitting night but we do have power and everyone is safe so I just wanted to post an update for you guys. We've had tons of rain (my grass looks like a lake) and strong winds (trees are bending sideways) But, from the sounds of the forecast tomorrow, will be wet but I should be able to open up the store (so if you are dying to get out of the house, call us first just to check 886-3947, but I'd love to see you!!) ~Jamie

Forcast Fay

At the minute POPIN seems to be directly where Fay is going to hit, it is raining really hard right now and the wind is picking up (can change any minute though!!). As a precaution, Duval County schools are closed today and tomorrow. From the sounds of the forcasts the main brunt of the storm will hit early Thursday morning...we will be hunkering down and closing shop around 3pm today and most likely will be closed tomorrow. We hope everyone stays safe and makes it through the storm with little damage! We will post any updates here on the blog (provided we have power) ~Jamie & Wendy

THE clothing SALE

OK, it's that time of year! We have to make room for all of the fall clothing that is coming in in huge boxes. So come in, stock up and enjoy the fantastic savings of 50% off all clothing (excluding layette and zutano).

And the winner is....

Congratulations to Beverly Kaufman of Jacksonville! Her name was drawn from hundreds of raffle tickets last night to win the free photography session from the very talented BrookeImages. We can't wait to see those photos!

Happy Independence Day!

Hope you all are enjoying the 4th with your families in this great country
God Bless the USA!

*POPIN is closed July 4th, but we will re-open Saturday at 10am ~ See you then!*

Yet another visitor...

WOW, today was a busy day at POPIN - Thank You to all of you that came in - it was overwhelming!

We had another special out of town guest in our store today who came bearing gifts, the super talented Rosalyn-Sue of The Little Bluebird Diaries, she brought us this goodie with the sweetest note..We met Rosalyn-Sue a while ago, she was an avid blog reader of ours and decided to make a trip to come into the shop, it's always fun to meet like-minded people. Today she and her family were in town and I was fortunate enough to visit with her again, we got to talk about Silver Bella and our Make-it-take-it's (which she is going to travel back to Jax to attend...we are so lucky!) ~J

Our little Visitor...

We had the sweetest visitors in the shop today, Miss Jenn and her sweet son Grant came in all the way from Georgia, we'll post more pics soon... but check him out, he has stolen Jamie's heart completely!!! added 7/22 - here's a group shot Grant, Jamie, Wendy, Jenn, & Jeanie

Free Photography Session

We are super excited to have another great raffle with a priceless prize. For every $20 you spend at POPIN you will receive a raffle ticket for a free photography session with Brooke Images. The Raffle drawing will be held Monday July 7th at 6:00pm. (You do not have to be present to win.)

Almost Time...

Tomorrow starts our big sale, for those of you that did not receive our newsletter...the sale is on all of our clothing in the store

(3 month to 4T)- it is all 25% off July 1st - July 5th!

We open at 10am tomorrow morning, so if you have had your eye on some special outfits then you should get here right away!

We hope to see you all there ~Jamie & Wendy

PS: Preston is feeling better, he is home from the hospital and it is looking like he may have a strange case of Mono instead of Kawasaki Disease... Your prayers must be working!!!

What We've Been Up To...

We've been a little busy... let's see, what's first?...

This past weekend we undertook yet another floor move, painted 4 out of our 6 rooms... got in new furniture & bedding... and spruced things up a bit. We worked a total of 25.5 hours in a day and a half and were TOTALLY exhausted come Monday morning, but so far the customer reactions to the changes have made it completely worth all the hard work. (see the website for some pics...more to come soon)

On top of that, we have re-designed our website and have added more info and less products (you guys will just have to come in to the store to see all of our fun finds!) We are going to start up the MITI's again in July...more details coming on the 1st...but the new website has a calender of events so you'll always know what's going on when (or you can always keep checking the blog)

Lastly, Jamie's home study was completed so now she's ready and waiting for some sweet child to adopt...things are moving in the right direction at least.

Stay tuned for more exciting announcements...we're working on all kinds of stuff now...of course you'll be the first to know! ~Jamie & Wendy

A Fresh Perspective

With all of the fun spring merchandise coming in we decided that it was once again time for a FLOOR MOVE! Here are some pics (courtesy of Wendy & her fancy new camera) of some of our favorite spots in the store - Even our staple items are looking rather fabulous. Come in and check it out!

The Presidents Day Sale Begins Today!

Today and Monday we are having a very Presidental Sale!

In honor of Presidents day, for every Grant ($50) you spend at POPIN we will give you a Lincoln ($5)

There is no limit to your amount of savings, and the sale is good on custom orders as well - how patriotic of us!

Happy Valentines Day, Come on in!

We didn't get you any roses or candy... but today's shipment of Spring clothing is so much sweeter than a box of chocolates! We just received a great selection of flirty halter dresses, bubbles, and a refill on our most popular flower tutus. A brand new line of mix and match casual wear for boys and girls arrived today too....
We hope you are enjoying this V-day with your special someone. Our families are having fondue together tonight, a night of cheese, chocolate, and family, what could be more romantic? ~J

Look away fire marshall!!!

We got back from market only a week ago but already the shipments have been rolling in!!! Our UPS guy is constantly giving us dirty looks and threatening to disown us if we keep this madness up. Wendy and I spent all day today unloading boxes and trying to tag and display this fun new merchandise...it is so crazy around here but cuteness is out of control!!!! Lots of new clothing... finally some newborn sizes...the cutest shoes ever should be here this week....stay tuned! ~J

bring on the paint

The Wall After Tricia worked her magic:She did this in a day and a half!!! You have to come in to see the detail...including glitter. She is amazing and so reasonably priced.
