Tally in the shop.

     Tally loves to be in the tallygear shop with her mother.
     She is always, always, always working on a project & her mother is forever cleaning up after her.

tonights project was in her own words

"Bill the glitter pooping unicorn".

as seen below.

I think she actually used staples to hold his head to his neck......ewwww.

& glitter glue for the poop.

She loves anything squishy.......

he will hang around for the rest of summer then I will put 'Bill' out to pasture.

Tally, I & her father decided Tally will go to the Clara Barton Diabetes Camp in North Oxford, Massachusetts for a one week day program in July 2011...she has asked me for several years but, now I think I am ready to let her go.... its tough though.

I love her so so much and want her to be safe...what better place.

Tally was being a little silly...and wanted me to add above pic.

in her own words...

"did you ever wonder how a rainbow happens? Unicorns sleep on clouds and after rain sometimes they don't feel good and throw up rainbows."

Happy Mothers Day

I am going to spend the day with my 2 favorite people...Tal & Matty. I hope you all have a great day. Happy Mothers Day.

Tallygears' NEW Tummietote Leg Band

 I was asked to design a legband for the prom....after several designs we think we found what works. Tally tested for me and says it works well. It has 2 velcroed pockets on the front of the band to hold insulin pump, Dexcom or cellphone. There are also 2 additional slip in pockets on the back that could carry smaller items or if necessary could carry a small test kit.

Introducing the Tummietote Leg Band.

Keeping your devices hidden under dress or skirt or pants.

Adjustable length velcroed straps attached to grasping clips.

Grasping clips...to hold the Tummietote Leg Band securely.

Super soft fabric.

A good alternative to carrying devices while wearing a dress or skirt or pants.

Design is made to carry tech devices on the front of the leg.

2 velcroed pockets to hold your insulin pump, Dexcom, cellphone, Ipod. 2 additional non velcroed pockets, for essentials, cash, credit cards....candy (sugar) or you could even carry a small blood test kit in a pinch.

Made with the same design as the Tummietote belt.

adjustable length strap with one inch waist strap to secure the legband in place or clip to bottom of underwear.

Tummietote Leg Band- heavy duty 'grabbing' clips so no chance of slipping off the fabric. Will hold several devices. @ velcroed pockets and 2 slip in pockets.

I will be adding to the website soon. If you are interested before that please send me an email at tallygear@aol.com or visit our site at http://www.tallygear.com/

Have a great day.

The Diabetes Mine 2011 Design Challenge

It was only by chance that we made it under the wire. I submitted the Tummietote Belt by Tallygear. It was either a written submission or a video. I chose the video...it was done quickly so please forgive the minor mistakes. I am very excited about even just submitting an entry. I have followed Diabetes Mine blog with Amy for several years, and have gotten alot of information that I use in the daily care of my daughterTallia.

here is the video...



Remember submissions need to be submitted by tonight at 11:59pm....I can't wait to see some of the great ideas.....I always say so many ideas but, so little time.

Have a great day.

Tallia Emily received honorable mention...

Tallia Emily has been working on a research project since the start of school in late September 2010. She presented her project Thursday April 16, 2011. She had to make several presentations to the judges. She was very nervous but,did well...she is glad its done. She received honorable mention. Her project was titled Diabetes. She compared the differences between Type 1, Type 2 and Gestational Diabetes. She was concerned that most people didn't realize the difference between the three. She did a terrific job. Congratulations to Tally. You put alot of work in to this project. Good Job.

Tallia is pictured the first on the left in the front row.

Tallygear - Sugar Bolus - LFAC

It probably seems by the title of this blog that I am going to be covering a lot of ground but in actuality it all ties together quite nicely.

So, this week Heather from Sweet to the Soul is hosting a kick ass Sugar Bolus and giving away a Tummietote by Tallygear. GO. CHECK. IT. OUT. NOW.

Tallygear happens to be one of my very favorite diabetes items. Nate has 2 tummietote belts (skulls and geckos cause he's a bad a$$) and last week we ordered and received his new most favorite belt ever . . . a BATMAN zipper waste pack. Holy smokes Batman -- Nate totally adores his new belt. Donna also made Nate a zipper arm pack with the left over Batman material. LOVE. IT.

I tried to get a picture of him wearing it but it is almost impossible to get him to stand still and pose. I got a video of him wearing it but I'm posting that later when I post my 1st VLOG. :)

Cute - right?

I also ordered a few things for me! I've really been wanting a tummietote to wear when I run or just when I am chasing kids. I LOVE IT. I decided to order the Tallygear 'Blue Circle' Tummietote Belt for the Candy Hearts LIFE FOR A CHILD Collection.

Please check out the entire collection of LFAC products here!

So, here I am wearing my awesome Tummietote . . . and I am no REYNA so this is as close as you are ever going to get to seeing my abs. :)

There's also a shameless plug for my brother's gym in that photo too. :)

Wait - I'm almost done. Donna also sent me a matching headband and lots of goodies for the girls.

So, go sign up for Heather's Sugar Bolus, if you don't win head over to Donna's store and buy yourself a tummietote and then check out Wendy's other LFAC products because they are totally amazing and supporting a truly wonderful cause.

Whhhoooooaaaa . . . I almost forgot. I have to show you this super cute armband that Donna made for my iPod when I run.

Dang - I wish I had 1/2 her talent. She's amazing!! Thank you, Donna for your awesomeness!

That is all.
