Weleda Calendula Baby Lotion
Like so many kids today, my son is constantly getting dry patches of skin. It seems like instead of actually getting rid of it, the rough area will just relocate to another part of his body. In the past four months he’s had it go from around his mouth to his back, and most recently [...]

Soft Sole Fisherman Sandals
Having three kids has, among other things, turned me into quite the bargain hunter. An area where I know I used to waste a lot of money are shoes, mainly because kids just grow out of them so quickly. Once they’re a little older and really walking on their own more it’s definitely worth an [...]

Graco Direct Connect Digital Monitor
Between my son and daughter, I’ve probably used 4 or 5 baby monitors along the way. When my backup radio started to lose its charge too quickly I decided it was time for a new one. After some deliberation on whether or not to try a new video monitor, I stuck with the same choice [...]

Boppy Nursing Pillow
As a mommy who doesn’t like to shop unless I need to, I try and get things that can serve a wide range of purposes. Not only is it a great way to save money short term, but I also don’t have to replace things as often. In this process one of my favorite grabs [...]

Build and Play Construction Fort
Last year my son asked for his 5th birthday party to be construction themed, most likely because his favorite bedtime book was about how roads are built. He was fascinated by the whole process but especially loved all the big trucks that were involved. I can’t lie though; he knew way more about them than [...]

Bright Starts Comfort & Harmony Bouncer
As a new mother I can’t tell you how unprepared I was to rock and sing my little girl to sleep multiple times a night. During the day she’d spend as much time as possible trying to wiggle her way out of any chair we buckled her into, so I was ecstatic when she started [...]

Avent Magic Sippy Cup
After many years of motherhood, I’m finally nearing the end of my run with sippy cups. My son has been using them for about five years now, so at this point I’ve tried nearly every different kind there is. Out of my more recent ventures, the worst definitely has to have been the Avent Magic [...]

Gerber NUK Learner Cup
My daughter Allison can hardly pick up most of her toys without sending a piece of it flying off after five minutes or so. I like to think she’s just really excited about everything, but unfortunately her constant flailing is still the cause of quite a few messes. This makes getting most food and drinks [...]

Our Globo Eco-Go Jacket
A few months ago I stumbled upon a blog while reading about environmentally friendly products. One in particular caught my attention, not so much because of the eco-aspect of it but simply the idea. It was Our Globo Eco-Go Jacket and it folded up into a backpack while the child wasn’t wearing it. This seemed [...]
