Julie Pruitt started Trendy Tadpole back in 2004 when she decided it was time she worked for herself.  She was inspired by her students and by the children that she babysat.  She brings pop culture, a little nostalgia and fun into each one of her designs.

 I recieved the Mr. Big shirt for my son. I chose it because my son is tall for his age and walks around like he’s the boss. This shirt fits his personality. The shirts run a little small so my son being 20 months, i got him a size 2T.

They have over 30 designs to choose from and come in onesies, long sleeve tees, reglan tees. They range in sizes from 3 months to 8 yrs.

This shirt is so adorable, and is a perfect fit for my son. All the designs are really cute. He has worn the shirt a couple times, and it still looks new, no fading.

 From Press release:The Walt Disney Company introduces a new motion picture label, DisneyNature, to home audiences when Earth comes to Blu-ray™ Hi-Def and DVD on September 1, 2009 from Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment. The debut home entertainment offering from the label, Earth tells a trio of unforgettable stories sure to captivate movie lovers of all ages. Set against some of the world’s most spectacular vistas, this breathtaking motion picture achievement uses the classic Disney storytelling tradition to celebrate the diversity and determination of its animal stars in a heroic journey that covers the Earth from pole to pole.

Award-winning filmmakers Alastair Fothergill (“The Blue Planet”) and Mark Linfield (“Planet Earth”) employ the latest innovations in film techniques to bring Earth’s stunning visuals to the screen. Narrated by James Earl Jones, the inaugural release from Disneynature is just the beginning of an instantly collectible new line of films and a worthy successor to the beloved, Academy Award®-winning True Life Adventures series, which includes The Living Desert (Best Documentary, Features; 1953) and The Vanishing Prairie (Best Documentary, Features; 1954).

In the Arctic, a mother polar bear trailed by her two cubs searches for food as their icy hunting grounds melt away. A herd of African elephants slowly traverses the arid Kalahari Desert toward the water-rich Okavango Delta. A humpback whale and her calf make a 4,000-mile journey in an epic migration that takes them from tropical waters all the way to Antarctica. Remarkable high-definition footage follows these creatures and more to places human beings rarely see, capturing unique worlds populated by Mandarin ducks and birds of paradise, as well as a pride of lions and a vast caribou herd. Filled with
surprising facts and extraordinary images, Earth is a dazzling portrait of life on our planet.

This movie is kindof like Planet Earth.  provides a great deal of information about the planet and the creatures that live on it.  There are scenes of animals attacking their pray, which made me worry if it was appropriate for my kids. it wasn’t to gory though,but it was still hard to explain to a three yr old.   There were beautiful scenes of waterfalls and landscapes, like I’ve never seem before.   This is a really great movie.
