Is your baby at high risk for RSV?

You need to know what you’re up against! Whether your child spends just a few hours a week in daycare, or is in school all day, they’re at a higher risk of contracting contagious germs and viruses, like RSV. The Respiratory Syncytial Virus can live on pretty much any surface – doorknobs, countertops, toys, bedding [...]

Cute Embelle bibs for baby [discount!]

Maura, my baby, is turning 5 this year. How fast the years go by! I still remember how fun it was to feed her… and to watch her feed herself! How messy can she get? I thought. I don’t really need to go find a bib, do I? Yes, I did. I turned around for [...]

Wet Ones Antibacterial Wipes

I love wipes. I don’t know why, but I just do. For Christmas last year, my boss gave me an industrial size container of wipes and I loved it. No lie. Maybe it’s the thought of killing thousands of funky germs. Maybe I’m just weird. Nevertheless, I can’t get enough. So, when offered the chance [...]

B Toys Zany Zoo [review]

5 sides of fun and seemingly indestructible. Perhaps this is why wooden activity cubes have been a waiting room and nursery school staple for so many years. The Zany Zoo from the innovative creators at B. toys is no exception, giving kids (and nostalgic adults alike) a grand old time. With no flashing lights, sound [...]

Topricin and Topricin Junior [review]

If your kids are anything like mine, they are very clumsy and are constantly getting hurt. Kissing “boo boos” and giving hugs are always my first attempts to make my kids’ injuries feel better. Cute band aids also do wonders to quickly dry up the tears. But seriously, most of us want to give our [...]

Wee Gallery Baby Art

When I was pregnant with my first child, I remember how I toiled over paint chips, trying to figure out the perfect colors for her nursery. I decided on Bibbidi Bobbidi Blue for the ceiling, and for the walls, Pixie Dust, a subtle shade of pink. Then I learned, after reading a book later on, [...]

Safety 1st onBoard 35 infant car seat

One of the most popular posts on my blog over the past year is my review of the Safety 1st Complete Air convertible car seat with Air Protect . I still get hits (page visits) on it everyday, almost 8 months after writing it! You may remember that Safety 1st provided me with two of those car [...]

Bellybuds bellyphones

Yes, I’m finally featuring a product for parents-to-be! I don’t do so often, since I’m wayyy past that stage, but I thought this would be a fun gift idea, especially with Mother’s Day coming up. Everyone knows that babies can hear sounds in womb. I remember whenever I’d go to the movies, my daughters would [...]

Playskool’s Explore and Grow toys

If you’re looking for that perfect toy for baby’s first Christmas, you can’t go wrong with something from Playskool’s Explore & Grow line. We’ve played with both the Tumble ‘N Twirl Top and the Busy Ball Popper for weeks, yet my girls squeal as much now as they did when I first took the toys [...]

So Smart! Baby’s First Word Stories

Maura is 2 years old. 2 and 3 months to be exact. Right at that age where she’s learning a mile a minute! I’ve gone through this before with Maya, but it still amazes me just how much a child develops between the ages of 2 and 3. To foster her learning, I try to [...]

The new SRT shoes from Stride Rite

I discovered Stride Rite shoes shortly after my second daughter was born, and we’ve been loyal customers since. Last winter MJ lived in these comfy boots, pictured to the right. In fact, she took her first steps in those shoes! I was so sad when she outgrew them. Stride Rite is helping all little ones [...]

Safety 1st Complete Air Convertible Car Seat with Air Protect

When I told my 4-year old that both her and her sister were getting new car seats, her response was – “Do they have 5 cup holders or something?” Happy with her current car seat, she couldn’t possibly imagine needing anything else. And neither did I… until I heard about: The statistics are staggering – [...]
