Modern Baby Product Guide: Fold & Go Bou...
Published on Wednesday, June 30, 2010 by caryn I would love to be able to hold my daughter all day long. But dishes laundry things would never get done. So while I'm running after my son or trying to get in a 3 minute shower, I put my daughter in a swing or a bouncer. My son never enjoyed his bouncer, but my daughter actually prefers it over the swing. New and expectant parents have an abundance of baby g... Read More » -

Camp Survival With Mabel’s Labels
Published on Wednesday, June 30, 2010 by caryn The official start to summer was last week, and many children will be heading off to camp. Once my son started school, I started labeling all of his clothes and shoes. I don't expect that a 3 year old will be able to keep up with his stuff, but I don't want to invest in new clothes, shoes, etc. should he lose them. Mabel's Labels is once again offering their Camp... Read More » -

Modern Baby Product Guide: Rhoost
Published on Wednesday, June 30, 2010 by caryn Babyproofing...those little devices and gadgets have managed to help avert many a disaster...and for that I'm grateful. But...white and plastic don't necessarily go with our modern home decor. For the most part, I recognize these devices for what they are and know that one day we'll be free from them.

Modern Baby Product Guide: Organic Baby Cloth...
Published on Tuesday, June 29, 2010 by caryn As an eco-minded mom, I try to purchase organic, local, sustainable foods and products. But what doesn't immediately come to mind is to shop for organic clothing. Cotton contains 25% of the world's pesticides, many of which are "possible," "likely," "probable," or "known" human carcinogens (Environmental Protection Agency).

Fashion Meets Comfort With Naturalizer Shoes
Published on Monday, June 28, 2010 by caryn Over the years, I've managed to collect a LOT of shoes. My husband is always trying to bribe convince me to get rid of some, but a girl can never have too many shoes. Before children, I chose style over comfort. I actually have several pairs of shoes that I can no longer wear safely, because of this reason. If you can believe it, I'm currently wearing the... Read More » -

The Juice on Kid’s Restaurant Week
Published on Saturday, June 26, 2010 by caryn My foodie husband and I are raising little foodies. Other moms ask me how I coerce my son into eating things like broccoli and salmon or Japanese Teppan. Or how it is that we can drive by a certain fast food chain without a meltdown. My answer is simple...my children eat what we eat. We eat out anywhere from one to several times a week, depending on our work ... Read More » -
