Keeping my son safe is the most important thing in my life. Thinking about all the accidents that can happen have kept me up at night. While I can protect him while he is at home, I don't have total control over what will happen to him in the world. That is why I want the safest car seat on the market for TJ to ride in. I have been doing a lot of research over the past few months about the … [Read more...]

All of their products are made from natural muslin, a product that gets softer and softer the more you … [Read more...]

I am already paranoid being a first time mom, so I want to know that if anything … [Read more...]

As any mom can tell you, reading about and actually experiencing parenthood are two very different things. I was so anxious, at the beginning, about every sound BJ made. Is he hurt? Is he sick? Is he hungry? Luckily for mom BJ has … [Read more...]
I love to travel. I don't get to do it much, but when I do I love it! One obstacle in traveling with an infant is all the stuff you have to bring with you. How can someone so small need so much stuff? On our most recent trip I cut as many corners as possible (I wanted to avoid as many baggage fees that I could). What could I leave behind, and what things could we not live without for a … [Read more...]
