Words I never thought I'd hear come out of my husband's mouth as he strolled by our living room: Whoa, that's some cool-looking pack-and-play. While I've never thought of a portable crib as particularly cool, I do admit this is one that …
Honestly, the number of hoops you have to jump through to sell on eBay these days is crazy (who has the patience?), and I'm sure I'm not the only person who feels like Craigslist is overrun with scammers, cheapskates and crazy people. So…

I know none of us cared what we looked like during the moments our babies were born. The health of baby and mama were the most important things in the universe, and there was very little room for vanity. But when I think back to all the …
Picking out a baby gift for my brand new niece, Isabella, was incredibly easy when I discovered makaboo --or difficult depending how you look at it. [don't miss a great offer, and giveaway after the jump!] Easy, because the shop has a gr…

Cute little fishies for your baby's room? So done. Instead, try this very hip, non-cutesy, and eco-conscious mobile that looks as sweet and restful hanging over a crib as it does dangling over a jacuzzi tub. Trust me, I know, because I s…
So, let's say you have a thousand dollars burning a hole in your pocket (humor me) and you need to get a new stroller. Are you going to want the same stroller that everyone else will be parking outside your Mommy and Me class? Or are you…
I've learned over the years it's nearly impossible to register for everything that you will need for your new baby. In fact, I've got a huge list of items that I wish I had thought of asking for or even just ordering for myself. And up h…
Sure, my husband is happy with his solid blue, no-name water bottle. But he also eats the exact same ham sandwich every day and owns an endless army of white socks. Me, I want my environmentally conscious, BPA-free water bottle to be as …
I've owned my fair share of diaper bags, and I've definitely got a sweet spot in my heart for the huge, honkin', very pricey bags that might just fit all your personal belongings and your baby. But by the same token, it's just not feasib…

I still remember my daughter's first "friend" - a garish stroller toy that we dubbed Guy the Giraffe pronounced the French way, Gee , because it was the one sound my three month-old made. Oh how she loved that thing. And sucked its antle…
If you're anything like me, you spent all this time picking out the nursery colors, obsessing over the crib sheets, and then completely forgetting to beautiful the very thing you look at 40 times a day--the diaper storage. I never really…
Back in my day, kids wore My dad can beat up your dad shirt (well, certain kids) and they were considered oh so hilariously irreverent. We've certainly come full circle since then, haven't we, because the new hilariously irreverent kids …
I'm not one for fussing with my girls' hair too much - if we remember to brush it in the morning that's a good day. But I do know that the poor kids have inherited my frizzies, coupled with their dad's thin hair, which is a great combo, …
Back about six years ago when I was shopping for our first crib, they were still made only for sleeping babies and not for their style-conscious parents . But these days, moms have a whole array of amazing, inspired options, and one of t…
It used to be that celebrities went and made their own line of exercise tapes (yes, tapes), or salad dressings or bad handbags. I'm so glad to see that now some of them are getting into the children's apparel business, with some decent r…
I'm all about dressing my kids in festive attire when a holiday rolls around, but I prefer when I can put them in it well beyond that one special day. In other words, no "Happy Independence Day 2010" tees for us today. [don't miss the on…
