Anyone who is a long time fan of BabySteals knows that I am a big fan of the Children’s DVD series Signing Time!

I’ve often bragged about how many signs my cute baby Jane (the brown-eyed beauty with the curly brown hair often on KidSteals.com) knew because of Signing Time. I’m pretty picky about the TV my kids watch–they don’t get much at all (especially when they’re babies and toddlers), but sometimes you just NEED that 20 minutes for them to sit still by you while you finish the dishes (or take a break yourself!) Well, soon after Jane started signing “milk” at 9 months when she was hungry and “more” when she wanted more, I was sold. Pretty soon the whole family (including my older kids) were singing along with Rachel to tunes like “Colors of the Rainbow”:

Signing Time was the only TV show or DVD that kept Jane entertained, yet she (and everyone else in the house) was learning so much at the same time! Bottom line, it helped her communicate with us before she could talk. Thus, fewer tantrums = happier child.

Jane even auditioned to be in Baby Signing Time 4, and got in (view at approx 1:43)! (Okay, she got in the crying part. You’ll see when you watch Baby Signing Time 4.) You can even see a few tiny seconds of me (with much longer hair) wiping her tears and opening her can of pears.

See for yourself how well she communicated, here are two cute videos of Jane showing off her signs (hey, every mom thinks their kid is a genius, right? I’m no different!)

Well, now I’ve told you, mom to mom, and BabySteals owner (who’s seen lots of baby products) to BabySteals customer, the ONE thing I wouldn’t ever do without for my babies, is Signing Time. And other moms that work here at BabySteals feel the same way. Now you know! But, don’t take it from me. Signing Time fans, comment and give moms the scoop!

I heard so many fun (and chilly) uses for this awesome Mountain Mama baselayer set. You ladies got it! Every garment is made in the United States at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains in Southern California. Why do we love this? We think mamas deserve respect–that includes our mother earth and Mountain Mama certainly leaves a small carbon footprint.

So do you want to hear who gets to lounge around in this warm outfit for their chilly adventures this fall and winter?

The winner is…

Lisa Kandola

Congrats Lisa! Hope this makes your hiking and camping trips warm and cozy! Thank you all for participating!

Rett with his son, Nash

Many of you know our fabulous, talented owner Jana Francis, but have you met our other owner, the incredible Mr. BabySteals? We’re not talking about Jana’s husband (though he is pretty awesome too). Mr. BabySteals is Rett Clevenger, CEO and co-owner of the Steal Network alongside Jana.

Jana and Rett hard at work in line at an amusement park. Yes, they are driven.

Rett and Jana have the perfect synergy to balance each other out–they are the yin and yang leading the Steal Network. They both come from strong backgrounds in marketing and ecommerce and are passionate about Steal Network sending joy to our customers through quality products, customer service, fast shipping, entertainment and connecting with others.

Meet Rett

Rett is a laid back, insanely smart and positive guy. He grew up in a small town in Idaho and loves the outdoors and anything that gets adrenaline flowing from whitewater kayaking to telemark skiing. Rett always does that right thing, has a great sense of humor, is an idealist and constantly wants to improve the status quo. What more can you ask for in Mr. BabySteals? Oh, he’s not too bad looking either. Sorry ladies, he’s taken. Rett lives in Park City, Utah with his beautiful wife and three children.

Meet Jana

Jana is passionate, energetic and outgoing. She enjoys fitness, gardening and cooking and is an outdoor recreational fanatic. Jana is outspoken, a clean freak, has a self-admitted inner geek and is into living healthy and eating organically. Most importantly, she loves a good deal and is passionate about bringing amazing steals to you everyday. This gorgeous gal is taken too, though not by Mr. BabySteals. Jana lives with her husband and three great kids in Salt Lake City.
