Disclosure: Our families were invited by Disneyland to attend the special event. Tickets for giveaway also provided by Disneyland Resort. Opinions expressed on Disney Sisters are all our own.
Disney Sisters attended the "birth" of the first ever Disney Baby Store at Americana at Brand
in Glendale, CA and it was so much more than the grand opening of a retail store, it was a
most magical celebration.
Last week Disney welcomed the arrival of the very first Disney Baby Store and online boutique by hosting a baby shower for more than 20 expectant and new military moms. Disney teamed with Operation Shower, a non-profit organization that supports military families by hosting baby showers to ease the stress of deployment.
The Disney Baby Magical Moments festival honored the military moms-to-be with brunch while Blue Sky Riders (comprised of members Kenny Loggins,Georgia Middleman and Gary Burr) performed songs from their upcoming self-titled album. The touching experience was made even sweeter when the band sang Kenny Loggins' classic song "House at Pooh Corner". Let's just say, we weren't the only ones who needed tissue, happy tears all around. Watching Disney create memorable experiences for a few of the many families that sacrifice so much for our country was truly magical!
Our favorite Disney Channel Moms on and off-screen were on hand to share in the Disney Baby celebration. Good Luck Charlie's Leigh-Allyn Baker rocked the pregnancy glow, she is due in a month and might very well be the cutest pregnant woman ev-er! We finally got to meet Angel Parker's precious little princess Naomi and son James. Remember when she was pregnant with Naomi during our interview on the set of Lab Rats? We also had the pleasure of meeting Angel's prince charming of a husband, Eric Nenninger. *LOVE THEM*
Bob Chapek, president of Disney Consumer Products was joined by the adorable Alison Sweeney and her 2 kids along side Winne the Pooh and his 100 acre woods pals to officially open the store.
Disney Store has always been one of our favorite places to shop for clothes and toys, now moms everywhere are rejoicing at the unveiling of the newest addition to the Disney Family. Disney invited the military moms to shop in the new Disney Baby Store with a gift card to purchase all their favorite things.
Cuddly Baby Bedding, Cozy Pajamas, Bath time Fun, Adorable Bouncers and Strollers,
and the cutest onesies with all of your favorite Disney characters. They even have Halloween Costumes for the smallest member of every family.
This will be the go-to place for So Cal locals to get the perfect gift for baby showers and birthday parties. Disney baby carries up to 3T. We sure are glad that this store is in our own backyard. But if you don't live near by don't worry, you too can get all the Disney Baby your heart desires delivered to your doorstep. Shop and place your order from the delicious Disney Baby Online Boutique at DisneyStore.com/DisneyBaby Disney Shops.
WARNING: Shopping at Disney Baby may give you a bad case of Baby Fever! Or it may make you buy a bunch of baby things, even if your children are no longer babies. . . uh yeah. . . don't say we didn't warn you!
Disclosure: We were invited to a Media Preview Opening of Disney Baby and given a dreamy swag bag. Thank you to Disney for throwing such a great baby shower! We had a blast!
You're Invited to... Mickey's Halloween Party Come trick or treat (candy and healthy treats), dance to live music and enjoy the attractions.
This special ticketed party is held 11 nights only at Disneyland Park during Halloween Time 2012! It’s the only time of year the whole family can dress up in costume to visit Disneyland.
Don't forget to watch the premiere of Jake and the Never Land Pirates "Jake Saves Bucky" WEDNESDAY NIGHT, SEPTEMBER 19 7PM/6PM CENTRAL ON DISNEY CHANNEL
It was officially announced on The Buzz (Disney Store's Blog) back in June but in case you missed it, we wanted to share the exciting news! After the huge success of the Disney Princess Designer Dolls Collection it's no surprise to see the next series - Villains! The Disney Villains Designer Collection re-imagines the stylish wickedness of classic Disney Villains. We hope there are even more dolls to come!!!
Maleficent
"In 1959’s Sleeping Beauty, Merryweather says “Maleficent doesn’t know anything about love, or kindness, or the joy of helping others.” That may be true, but our Disney Villains Designer Collection Maleficent certainly knows a thing or two about fashion! From the tips of her signature horn-like hairstyle, all the way down to the hem of her fit and flair velvet skirt, Maleficent oozes high fashion. She even comes with a crystal ball staff with claw details! All she’s missing are her pet raven and her beastly minions, but maybe they’re off looking for some killer heels to match her outfit."
The Disney Villains Designer Collection Maleficent doll will be released in select Disney Stores on September 10, and online at DisneyStore.com on September 11.
The Evil Queen
"Magic mirror on the wall, who is the fairest doll of all? The Evil Queen from the Disney Villains Designer Collection, of course! There’s no question that the Evil Queen’s famed beauty is captured perfectly by her Disney Villains Designer Collection Doll. Her elegant velvet cape has a poison-apple-red satin lining. The regal purple dress she wears is accented by plenty of sparkle, from her beaded crown and earrings to her rhinestone-studded chain belt. This new outfit takes the Evil Queen from cloaked conspirator to dastardly diva, and one thing is certain: this Evil Queen is no old hag!"
The Disney Villains Designer Collection Evil Queen doll will be released in select Disney Stores on September 17, and online at DisneyStore.com on September 18.
Queen of Hearts "Fancy a game of croquet with the most villainous monarch in Wonderland? Prepare to do her bidding and paint the roses red or else it could be off with your head." The Disney Villains Designer Collection Queen of Hearts doll will be released in select Disney Stores on September 24, and online at DisneyStore.com on September 25.
Ursula "Oh, you poor unfortunate souls, just try to match the flair and flamboyance of the most stylish witch under the sea. Throwing her weight around in more ways than one, Ursula makes enough waves to overthrow a kingdom." The Disney Villains Designer Collection Ursula doll will be released in select Disney Stores on October 1, and online at DisneyStore.com on October 2.
Mother Gothel
"Mother knows best, and Mother Gothel definitely knows best when it comes to fashion. She may be clothed in a dark cloak throughout Tangled, but our re-imagining of her style for the Disney Villains Designer Collection reveals her wicked beauty. Her regal burgundy dress is made of real satin, and features a golden fringe and embroidery on the back. Mother Gothel’s hair is in a theatrical up-do so glamorous that it might even outshine Rapunzel’s glowing locks. We hope she finds her way out of her tower in the forest and onto a runway ASAP."
The Disney Villains Designer Collection Mother Gothel doll will be released in select Disney Stores on October 8, and online at DisneyStore.com on October 9.
Cruella De Vil
"The perfectly wretched Cruella De Vil’s fashion was one of the centerpieces of 1961’s 101 Dalmatians, so she fits like a red satin glove into the Disney Villains Designer Collection. From her luxe fur coat, to her sequin halter dress, to her signature hair style, the Disney Villains Designer Collection Cruella De Vil doll captures the glamorous wickedness that Cruella is known for. In this fabulous ensemble, we think she’s dressed more appropriately for a red carpet than a puppy heist."
The Disney Villains Designer Collection Cruella De Vil doll will be released in select Disney Stores on October 15, and online at DisneyStore.com on October 16.
"I consider my interpretation of the Disney Villains dolls in this collection as fashion sketches come to life"

Alison Sweeney and her children were joined by Winnie The Pooh and friends to officially welcome Disney Baby, the newest store in the Disney family to the Americana Grand in Glendale, Ca.
Halloween is next month, which means children everywhere are planning their costumes and figuring out what they'd like to be this year. There is another important accessory to think about when gearing up for a night of Tricking and Treating. . . how to carry all of that candy! When we were young, we used pillow cases to put all of our candy in. This was back in the day when they only had the orange plastic pumpkins at the stores for treat buckets. (Old School Right?) It's different now though. It seems as if the trick or treat bag is becoming just as important as the costume. Also they have so many choices, your child can match the bag to their costumes or even choose one of their other favorite Disney Characters.
Here are the latest styles available now at Disney Store:
