Beaverton Valley Times:

In two years, the “mompreneurs” and current finalists for Oregon Entrepreneur of the Year, have catapulted their Beaverton-based Little Busy Bodies business into a powerhouse.

Their personally developed line of soothing saline “Boogie Wipes,” designed to combat pesky dried nasal mucus, are now in more than 30,000 stores. These wipes have helped the moms not only grow a successful business from scratch, but have given them the opportunity to spread the word around the country that being a mom doesn’t mean you can’t flourish in the business world.

Quite the contrary.

For Beaverton resident Doney, 34, and Tigard resident Pickens, 41, it was their experiences as moms that helped them reach their towering accomplishments. Growing and operating a successful business is similar to raising a child, the close friends agree. Both require patience, persistence and care.

These attitudes have helped Little Busy Bodies achieve $1.1 million in sales in 2008 – their first full year in business. Now, this year, the company and its 13 employees are on track to triple that.
