"My baby will never wear pink," I once said. But I had to eat those words when I discovered that all those gender neutral onesies in melon, lemon, and lime made my darling, olive-skinned daughter look like a zombie. And I have pics to pr…
I'm no germaphobe, but the idea of putting my bundle of joy in a hotel-supplied Pack-n-Play which may have been cleaned with industrial-strength chemical cleaners or worse, nothing at all, gives me the heebie jeebies. Fortunately, the so…
I've had a heart for the adorably luxe baby clothes from LA's PAIGELAUREN baby since I found them earlier this year. The sweet pastels and softer than soft cottons are exactly the kind of shower gift that steals the stage . But now I'm e…
Come on, you know your little man fits the bill. Chubby cheeks, laughing eyes, and a perfectly round Buddha belly. Wouldn't he look utterly delicious in a kimono? A masculine (but snuggly) kimono? [see our giveaway after the jump!] We've…
It's time to check your cribs yet again, mamas, as the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has announced a recall of 2 million cribs , including some popular brands. The list of recalled cribs includes Jenny Lind, Evenflo, and Delt…
Those board books start out so cute and shiny, don't they? And then Baby Bookivore gets very interested in gnawing the corners, splitting the pages, and seeing what a slice of banana will look like sandwiched between B is for Broccoli an…
Who amongst us hasn't wanted to put our precious newborn in a germ-free, weather-protected, cocoon of safety at some point? That's not just me, right? But the problem with any sort of covering for an infant seat is that it's generally ei…
If you've ever run from one side of the mall to the other trying to match a dress from the department store and shoes from a boutique with just the right cardigan, then you are going to totally love this discovery. I think it's the onlin…
I'm not in the habit of talking to vegetables unless I'm pregnant and singing a love song to my tempura zucchini. Still, I find myself saying yes to Yes to Baby Carrots several times a day lately. Maybe you've seen the orange-splashed Ye…
You've got some organic spaghetti on your face, honey. Let me get that for you. (Licks thumb, scrubs face off shrieking, flailing baby.) There, isn't that better? Well, a little. I mean, the tomato sauce has been replaced by a red rash, …
I had a May baby and a July baby and as such, I still remember those panicky early days of taking the baby out into the (gasp) sun. I don't think I could have had enough muslin swaddling blankets and floppy brimmed sunhats to put me at e…
We're huge fans of the Dante Beatrix backpacks for almost too many reasons to mention--the eco-friendly materials, the perfect toddler sizing, the adorable designs. How's that for a start? Now the company is simply named Beatrix NY. And …
After getting two kids through the messy eating phase and currently dealing with one who's in the thick of it, I might just be a bib expert. And I have to say that the bibs from JJ Cole are some of my all-time favorites. It doesn't hurt …
When I got word that online boutique Shabby Apple is now promoting their dresses for women, I have to be honest, I was a bit skeptical. I like some but not all of their little girls' dresses, and on top of that, mail order clothes + chea…
Now that our air conditioner is blaring full force (curse you, NYC humidity!), I've finally gotten around to summer-izing the linens. I find a simple little change like switching throw pillow covers from wool to cotton or swapping out ou…
If you needed any more evidence that denim is hot again, take a look at the new denim diaper cover I just spotted at babyGap. I love the dark wash with the slight fade on the bum, and that little pocket in back is too cute for words. It …
We, like everyone else in the world, have long been fans of Bravado! bras and their well-priced, comfortable nursing bras. But with the launch of their new Bliss Maternity Bra , I think they definitely upped the ante. I'm a huge fan of s…
Oh stop it you cynics. Most dads -- especially the new ones -- would be thrilled to spend Father's Day flouting their dadness on their chest, and that of their doting progeny. So we've tracked down a few of the more clever daddy and me s…
I have already espoused my love for baby bloomers here on Cool Mom Picks. Their versatility really make them the perfect warm weather baby accessory. But with the adorable baby bloomers from CMP fave Raven & Lily, I just added another re…
It always seems like girls get the pick of the litter when it comes to cool accessories and boys are relegated to fourteen varieties of baseball caps. So if you've got a little hat connoisseur of the male persuasion, I strongly suggest t…
The good old over the shoulder boulder holder is turning a whopping 100 today, and to thank her (is it a she? he? it?) for her amazing support (ahem) throughout the years, we thought it would be fun to round up a few of our favorite nurs…
The season has definitely changed around here, which means I'm putting away the sweaters and long pants, and switching handbags. Of course this leads to much hand wringing considering I'm completely attached to my super great, but very w…
We rarely leave the house without our Rain or Shine Kids waterproof stroller blanket - whether it's a cool fall picnic, winter jog, or spring walk in the park. And now, with their organic sun protection blanket, I think they've pretty mu…
Back when my son was born, saying that you wanted a green crib meant you were literally looking for a crib that was painted green. I'm really thrilled now that more and more companies are offering eco-friendly options that are stylish to…
