Today's Parent Loves Lug

In the current issue of Today's Parent, you'll find a great story called "It's All in the Bag." And in that story, you'll find that Today's Parent thinks our Mini Puddle Jumper is the ideal bag for the mom of a preschooler:

Ready to ditch the diaper bag? Choose a roomy, multi-functional tote (one you can also use as your gym bag, for example) with different compartments. Our pick: Lug Mini Puddle Jumper Day Bag

We agree! But it's such a versatile bag, we're also curious: How do you use your Mini Puddle Jumper?

Good Morning, Lug!

Did you have a good morning? LUG DID! Ami and Jason rocked it on Good Morning Texas. Check them out right here, where they featured some of Lug's super-smart gear, including the Canoe Brush Holder, the Wheelie bags, and the lovable Undercover Bears. Well done, guys!

... And I'm loving all the bright colors! One of the many reasons I love Lug.

Lug's Baby Boom

Congrats to Michelle (left), who just had her baby girl, Olivia, and Allison, who is going on maternity leave tomorrow! Our beloved baby mamas are in good shape to welcome their little bundles, with our smart satchels that make for brilliant baby bags. A favorite? The Tuk Tuk Carry All, with its pockets for baby bottles; separate compartments for diapers, extra clothes, and toys; and handy handles that attach to a stroller. And for all those baby things that need to be kept on ice, the Pedals Lunch Tote is a great option that slips into any bigger bag.

Congrats again to our new moms!

Happy New Year!

So, it's the Tuesday after New Years. Have you made your New Year's resolution yet? If you answered no, well ... you're four days late. But, better later than never! As we told you here, Lug is getting fit this year. Health and wellness are always good goals and some of the most popular New Year's resolutions out there. But if you're looking for some different ideas, we've got a few.

Write a letter every week: Whether it's a little postcard you drop in the mail while you're on a trip, a "thinking of you" card for a friend, or a longer letter to a loved one, cards are always cherished. It only takes a couple of minutes once a week to make someone's day.

Volunteer once a month: Volunteering is one of those things that seems almost selfish because it always makes you feel good after helping someone or supporting a cause. So, why not feel good all year by helping others?

Join a club: There are a ton of clubs out there! Book clubs, investment clubs, cooking clubs, gardening clubs, travel clubs. Find one you're interested in and get out there. You'll meet some great new people and probably learn something along the way.

We'd love to hear about your New Year's resolution and add to our list of ideas. And remember, it's never too late to start a resolution.

Twas the Night Before the Night Before Christmas

... And if you haven't picked up your copy of The Night Before Christmas, you better go get it.

Also, for all the kids out there, you're going to want to keep track of Santa here. And to stay on his "good list," here are some Christmas cookie recipes.

Wishing everyone a very merry Christmas!

Agent Turnberry: Bear About Town and Attendee of Children's Aid Foundation Celebration

Agent Turnberry is a real cool cat (he's got a lot of this, and he's got a lot of that). This past Sunday he stopped by the Children's Aid Foundation's 31st Annual Holiday Season Celebration, which is a fabulously festive party that spreads holiday cheer to hundreds of children in the care of child welfare services in the Toronto area and their families. Of course, he was delighted to attend such a worthwhile event, and we've just gotten word that he was an (almost) perfect gentleman at the affair.

"He was very well behaved and really brought smiles to the faces of all the children at the party! ... We had a hard time keeping him away from the blue raspberry lollipops, but never the less he is welcome back anytime!"

What can we say? He loves those darn blue raspberry lollipops!
