What on earth would we do without the video montor? It’s a question I’ve considered many times throughout these past three years. Sure, you could live without one. People certainly have. But why would you want to? There have been countless times where our video monitor saved the day – or rather, our collective night’s [...]

The Best Baby Shower: HALO SleepSack Review and Give Away

Heather — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 23:27:47 +0000

During those first several weeks of her life, Emma wore a HALO SleepSack practically every day. This, we found, was the easiest way to swaddle our new baby as inexperienced new parents, thanks to the velcro-wrap design. The SleepSack’s are both a wearable blanket and a swaddle all in one, which is great because as [...]

When I was pregnant with my first child, I was working full-time and didn’t get around to decorating the nursery completely until after the baby was born. In fact, the room could still use some finishing touches. This time, I’m home most days, and baby boy’s room is almost complete. I’m having so much more [...]

Heather — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 21:10:31 +0000

It took a while to get into the baby bathing groove with Emma. Even when we found our best method — a sling set into the kitchen sink, there needed to be two people involved in the process. It was slippery and difficult to keep her in place. This is Emma getting washed up inside [...]

I’m now entering my third trimester, and the last thing I want to invest in right now is maternity clothes. But trying to get by on the few items I have can be quite challenging too, not to mention boring. When I heard that there was a company out there that offers maternity clothes for [...]

I’ve become a bit of a pinterest addict lately, and most of my pinnings have to do with food, naturally. There are so many great recipes to be found and among my favorites is this Buttermilk-Blueberry Breakfast Cake. The recipe calls for fresh blueberries, but I still have a stash of frozen blueberries from last [...]

The Best Baby Shower: Kolcraft Cuddle ‘n Care Bassinet

Heather — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 21:29:04 +0000

That first night at home with your new baby can be quite intimidating. I remember the feeling, and it’s completely normal I’m sure. There are no doctors or nurses to check in on you to make sure you’re doing everything correctly, and I’m pretty sure we got no sleep at all that night. We took [...]

Huggies Little Movers Slip-On Diapers Giveaway (Two Winners!)

Heather — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 20:04:15 +0000

Diapers get so much easier to use as time goes on and your child graduates to pull-on diapers that fit like underwear. That’s why I’m so excited that Huggies came out with the new slip-on style diapers for the younger crowd. I love these guys, especially for that crawly-squirmy stage I remember all too well. [...]

Last Spring, I attended the launch of Disney Baby with the adorable, and ultra-comfy line of cuddly bodysuits. It was difficult for me to decide what I loved best about them., and it still is. It’s definitely a tie between the inventive designs and the adorable -yet-not-too-cutesy Disney patterns. The event gave me baby fever [...]
