Hey Kid – Make your own cupcakes
My three kids, and even my 2-year-old, are super eager to help me in the kitchen. And surprise, they seem even more eager to consume what I've prepared when they've had a hand (or entire arm as it seems to go) in making it. Granted, they probably won't need any...
Couture diaper bags without the couture prices
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 feasible for me to lug something like...
Summer sales – Stock up for next year!
I'm a huge fan of hitting end of season sales to outfit my kids for the following year. The clothes are still cute one year later (imagine that!) and even better, I can usually score the more expensive designer brands that I've been coveting all season long. Take the...
One more reason to love Klean Kanteen
We all know that drinking lots of water is essential, especially since this summer has been hella-hot. And while the reusable bottle movement is hardly new, these special-edition Fill. Drink. Repeat. bottles from Klean Kanteen give you even more incentive to switch...
Kids name labels go designer
If you're like me, then you probably try to have a nice stack of name labels on hand for all those things your kids have to take to camp, school, daycare and everywhere else their busy little social calendars may take them. But when kids start to outgrow those...
The 3 Little Pigs go 21st Century
I have a soft spot for nursery rhymes and classic kids' stories, both of which seem to be slowly dying in our age of technology and television. But the folks at Sprout San Francisco have revived one of my favorite tales with a cool new set of kid's t-shirts....
Snowflakes in summer
It seemed like yesterday that I was dying to put a hair clip in my oldest daughter's nearly bald little head. And now with her bangs all grown out and her hair all grown in, she really can't leave home without one, so I'm always on the lookout for cute hair...
Moop, there it is!
In the summer, I tend to let my handbags go a little more casual and a little less structured. Messenger bags can do the trick, but frankly, I don't want to look like a messenger. [don't miss the giveaway after the jump!] That's where Moop comes in. Their meticulously...
Doughnuts just for babies. Homer Simpson approves.
When I was pregnant with my first daughter, now six, rattles that were actually cute, functional, and not made completely of plastic were just starting to make it onto the scene. Well it seems that now cuteness and a bit of hilarity abounds at...
Snoopy Sno-Cone Makers! Remember those?
Like all children of the 70's, I have fond memories of Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots and that Evil Knievel motorcycle that never ever jumped the ramp like it did on the commercial. I also pine for my old Snoopy Sno-Cone maker, which pretty much guaranteed that any...
