Happy Mother's Day to all you cool moms out there! When the pancakes are all eaten and the house miraculously cleaned without your help, here are some posts for you to lie back and enjoy while the kids massage your feet. They were all cu…
As a Southern transplant, I couldn't let the annual running of the Kentucky Derby go by without at least a little hat tip (ha, get it?). But since I'm pretty sure I won't have a need for a gigantic hat anytime soon, I figured a cute litt…
Even though I'm still breastfeeding my six-month old every few hours, I somehow forget that little fact when I go shopping and want to buy all these adorable sundresses for myself. Lifting my dress up over my head every time the baby nee…
If I'm going to take the time to hand write a card, I'm picky about what I send. But now instead of topping off my gorgeous cards with my chicken scratch return address, I can have someone else do it for me. Well, it's clear that mom Gin…
If you've ever read The Pioneer Woman's blog , then you know this woman is slated pretty much to take over the world. With cookbooks, an autobiography, and a TV sitcom in the works, now Ree Drummond has turned her world-conquering master…
When I first saw photos of the handmade kids' moccasins from super talented designer Susan Petersen, I got that tingly, fidgety feeling I get when I see something I really want. But when I saw them in person, let's just say that tingly f…
Breakfast in bed on Mother's Day is a given, right? Okay, it's not. But it should be. And as someone who was lucky enough to procreate with a trained chef, I think we have no excuse not to start institutionalizing it. On our Mother's Day…
I'm a self-professed journal addict, which means I often feel as though there will be a sudden shortage and I must buy all of them just in case. (You fellow journal addicts know what I mean.) But I only have an eye for cool journals that…
We're happy to be working with our sponsor Yahoo! Mail , who's helping encourage families to stay connected via email. Which, as we know, is a good thing! When my first daughter was born, I was pretty diligent about keeping up her baby b…
There are no shortage of deals sites out there these days, and I'm all for it. Who wouldn't want a few extra bucks in their wallet? But after getting hordes of emails for 55% off dental services and a bunch of other stuff I wouldn't cons…
If you've got a prolific little artist in your house like me, then you've probably exhausted all the creative ways to turn their artwork into gifts for the grandparents. Or maybe you're looking to start? I'm so excited about these discov…
Back when my oldest was a little baby, I remember a frantic phone call from my mom reminding me not to give the baby honey. Little did she know that I'd already been warned oh, four hundred times by all of my pregnancy and new mom books.…
We're just so excited to present our annual Mother's Day Gift Guide which just so happens to be celebrating our very most favorite holiday! Of course we're devoted to finding cool stuff for moms all year long, but it's especially fun to …
With the weather getting warmer, the big treat around our house is popsicles. Sometimes we make our own and other times, I'll splurge on the fruit juice-only ones from our supermarket, even though I know they're loaded with sugar. But no…
We've got no shortage of toys in our house, but of all the ones my kids consistently play with, their simple set of building blocks win over anything else they own every single time. So when I saw the GoodWood Deconstructive Blocks, I kn…
Here in Atlanta where I live, the weather has been nice since the beginning of March, which means my kids have already exhausted Hide n' Seek, Freeze Tag, and two entire boxes of sidewalk chalk. So when I saw this book when I was at the …
Just when I thought an artist couldn't do anything new or inspired to the good old but very played out alphabet decor, artist Lorena Siminovich of Petit Collage wows me with her brand new poster prints. These new ABC poster prints are ma…
I'm fortunate to have a daughter who takes violin right next to the Blabla Kids storefront in Atlanta, so every week, I poke my head in to say hello to their lovely staff and design team, and take a peek at what's new. And just wait unti…
When you think of a baby rattle as a keepsake gift, silver is probably the first material that pops to mind. But I've just found a wooden one that's so gorgeous, it's giving silver a run for its money. The Timbur Baby Rattle combines tra…
Of all the Jewish holidays, I'd imagine Passover is the one many kids love best. If you're my kids, then it's like having crackers and grape juice for dinner. Dream holiday! I always love finding fun ways to get them involved , and have …
It only took one episode of Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution to suck me in for the entire season, and it wasn't just his cute face and adorable accent. The chef-crusader's passion for making real changes in the eating habits of our kids is…
With a new couch on the way (yippee!) I'm preparing to say goodbye to the saggy, dog-scented, claw-worn monstrosity. It's easy. Trust me. One of the fun things: Shopping for new throw pillows. I'm thinking with a red TV and entertainment…
I've often said to new mom friends that if I had to do it over, I'd have spent less on the crib. Not that I didn't adore our crib for the four years that we used it; but there has to be a better way than shelling out a fortune, even for …
I just got wind of an adorable new shop featuring anything and everything animal-themed for kids. Well, not everything animal. This is just the cute stuff. In other words, no magenta and gold metallic toddler cheetah leggings As Seen on …
