October 2, 2019 by Anne Marie 68 Comments

Hint water kept me hydrated throughout my last pregnancy; it was a delicious way to enjoy my daily quota. I'm the person who buys bottled water and then never drinks it. Why would I reach for that when there are lovelier things to imbibe like black coffee and kambucha? Just kidding, I don't drink fermented beverages.

And the question which has been burning a hole in my mind for 9 long months is finally answered. There's no moment quite like it in the world.

August 30, 2019 by Anne Marie 10 Comments

Busy families appreciate tools that can multi-task. This is certainly true about what we've come to expect from planners and calendars. And TAN Books are definitely up to the task. TAN's unique and beautifully designed planners are an ideal way to remind us, as we are scheduling activities and appointments, who's ultimately in charge of our future.
