Celebs with Graco at the Boom Boom Room
Greetings from the East Coast!  Yes it’s true; I am back in Pennsylvania… Unfortunately I didn’t get “discovered” out in Hollywood so now I am back in the office and working hard on all of the follow up from the Boom Boom Room. What an amazing event. I am still running off momentum from the mind-blowing two days I spent at the Pre-Golden Globe gifting suite schmoozing the celebrities and trying my darndest to make some new A-lister friends.
You already heard about Scott Baio making fun of me. I mean, come on, why??? I understand I look young- but 15?  I guess I will appreciate looking 8 years younger than I do- probably in about in 8 years!  If you think about it, I probably look young to any 46 year old.

Ali Landry also stopped by our suite (which we shared with 2 great women from Chic Papoose). She was so nice and appreciative. Ali was so excited about sweetpeace, she gushed over the product and she really couldn’t stop talking about it. She was looking forward to using it with her daughter Estela who is 7 months old but is just as excited to share it with her sister who is due very soon. Oh and I met  my favorite funny girl, Joely Fisher (she had her daughter in the Graco Mosaic designed by Cynthia Rowley which she picked up at last year’s Boom Boom Room). Her show on Fox “Till’ Death” is my absolute favorite! Joely was just as witty in person and very down to earth. It looked as though she and Carnie Wilson were buddies. They greeted each other with a BIG hug. And whenever Lola becomes a big sister, Carnie Wilson will definitely be using sweetpeace because she thinks sweetpeace is “GENUIS!” (I didn’t say it- she did)

Another highlight from the Boom Boom Room for me personally was meeting Jodie Sweetin. I grew up watching Full House, so meeting “Stephanie Tanner” was so exciting for me. She and her husband were wearing customized “his and her” Converse Sneakers which I LOVED- how original (and cute)! She was so nice and very bubbly. Jodie already knew all about sweetpeace and was a HUGE fan! Make sure to check out Celebrity Baby Blog in the beginning of February, they will be posting a story on Jodie.

Needless to say, I had the time of my life. I was disappointed as the clock turned to 5:00pm and I knew the day was almost over… UNTIL…. Tori Spelling, Dean McDermott and little Liam strolled into our suite. We ended the day with the last Spelling/McDermott sighting of the event in our suite- No disappointment here! We went out with a bang!! Check out this week’s Wondrous Wednesday post  for more on Tori, Dean and Liam.

All celebrities that attended the Boom Boom Room made donations to the Jayneoni Moore Children’s Foundation which supports reading programs for low income families.

Thanks to everyone for making the Boom Boom Room a success! Find out more detail from our guest ‘live blogger” Sarah Granger!!
