Favorite Super Hero: My childhood was in Seoul, Korea...so my favorites were Korean superheros called the Eagle Five. They always protected the princess, which I imagined to be myself back then.
Weekend Fun: knitting, crocheting, sewing...but this winter is going to be all about snowboarding!
We recently had a contest on Facebook (www.facebook/skiphop) and on Twitter (@skiphopnyc) that the winner would receive a Swipe wipes case if you were the first to post a picture of your Skip Hop Pronto. We received some really great photos but this one in particular stood out. How adorable!
Get your own Pronto here and send us a pic of your little cutie patootie!
Name: Brandon
Position & Years: Sales Analyst, 3 years this January
Hometown: Seattle, WA
Favorite Childhood Toy: My favorite toys growing up were my 3 Tonka Trucks. I would sit for hours digging up our backyard and moving dirt around.
Favorite Superhero: My favorite was definitely He-Man! I don't exactly remember what I thought was so cool about He-Man, but it probably had something to do with his ability to change from the mild-mannered Prince Adam into the fierce fighter, He-Man.
I like to take frequent weekend trips to places like Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and sometimes even Seattle. Besides travel, I LOVE to eat at "fancy" restaurants.
Just in time for the Holiday season, the NEW Giggle exclusive Skip Hop Pronto, Single Bottle Bag and Pacifier Pocket are now available! As a part of their "Better Basics" collection, you can find these items and more at www.giggle.com!

Favorite Superhero: Wonder Twins, easy! Transforming into any animal is cool, but transforming into any form of water is mad genius.
Weekend Fun: Tiling, gardening, baking -- any excuse to buy tools!
Petite Village, one of our favorite social networking groups for moms and dads, recently held a Baby Food 101 event at Whole Foods in Potrero Hill, San Francisco in conjunction with the Golden Gate Mothers Group.

Moms and dads attending got to sample some baby food and were entered for a chance to win a Skip Hop Palette Plate or Mate!

Favorite Super Hero: It's a tie between Wonder Woman and the Bionic Woman--they both kick'd ***!
Weekend fun?! Road trips with family, the beach! working out, reading, addicted to HGTV and am an avid Facebooker.

One of our favorite places to do our lifestyle photoshoots is Room Studio in Soho. The light is to die for plus it looks like the NYC apartment everyone dreams about. They have a really fabulous blog that profiles clients ranging from The Food Network to Puma.
