All About Baby: Your Baby Can Read
Published on Monday, February 1, 2010 by Caryn Bailey I started reading to my son when he was a baby. I often questioned myself, but did "just as the books told me to." Out of all that time we've spent together, books open wide and well-read, my son has developed an incredible love for reading. Naptime and bedtime routines are not complete without books. Our little girl is also getting exposed to reading early si... Read More » -

All About Baby: Zootie Patootie
Published on Sunday, January 31, 2010 by Caryn Bailey Little girls are so much easier to shop for than little boys. I remember going into store after store in the mall, in search of an outfit for an event, holiday, or other special occasion...particularly when my son was a baby. There is no shortage of adorable, little-girl themed clothing in stores today. Zootie Patootie is one such boutique offering fashionable ... Read More » -

All About Mama: Second Base
Published on Sunday, January 24, 2010 by Caryn Bailey As a mom, I'm very conscious of the clothing I wear. I'm definitely more modest these days, but I have a lot of items from my younger years that are stylish enough to continue wearing. Pregnancy and nursing have changed my body in ways I never imagined, which makes dressing modestly a bit of challenge. One of the fashion tips I held onto during pregnancy and no... Read More » -

Simple Nursery Design Tips from Wendy Belliss...
Published on Saturday, January 23, 2010 by Caryn Bailey This giveaway is now closed. Congrats to Clarissa Neiding! Our "nursery" looks more like a little boy's playroom these days. Our baby girl came 3 weeks early and we're still trying to work through the process of organizing the room to function as both a toddler room and a nursery. Home design isn't something I'm great at and I'm always looking for ways to make th... Read More » -

All About Baby: minui Handysitt
Published on Thursday, January 21, 2010 by Caryn Bailey I never imagined the baby and toddler stuff would consume our home. Despite the fact that I told everyone not to buy us much more than a few outfits, we've still managed to accumulate a lot of gear...gear that takes up a lot of space in our home. I've tried to eliminate the duplicates and utilize smaller, space-saving options when possible. When my son was a ba... Read More » -

All About Baby: Dozy Dolphin On The Go by Cl...
Published on Monday, January 18, 2010 by Caryn Bailey When my son was a baby, he had a lot of fussy moments. He didn't sleep through the night until I stopped breastfeeding (at almost 15 months) and to this day he still wakes up every now and then. I tried most things people suggested...routines and schedules, books, etc. But I was determined not to let him cry it out, so my husband and I had our share of sleepless... Read More » -

All About Mama: HOTmilk Lingerie
Published on Sunday, January 17, 2010 by Caryn Bailey When I was pregnant with both of my children, I remember people telling me that I glowed. I truly believe that is because I was so happy to be pregnant, (despite the fact that I had some difficulties during both pregnancies) because I didn't feel beautiful at all. I mostly felt big and awkward. Four weeks ago, our baby girl was born...healthy and beautiful and ... Read More » -

All About Baby: Prince Lionheart washPOD
Published on Sunday, January 17, 2010 by Caryn Bailey Last fall, I had an opportunity to preview some of the newest and most popular baby items on the market at LA's Plan a Baby Event. One of the companies represented was Prince Lionheart, a family-owned company offering products for babies and tots. Many of their latest products were on display, including their new washPOD. When my son was a baby, I bought a regu... Read More » -

All About Baby: Pediped Footwear
Published on Saturday, January 16, 2010 by Caryn Bailey I remember someone once told me that babies learning to walk, ideally should do so barefoot. Now that works at home...on carpet...without dangers or obstacles. But I also believe babies and tots learning how to walk require sufficient support. Soft, leather shoes are as close to walking barefoot as you can get. Last year, I introduced you to Pediped Footwear. T... Read More » -

All About Baby: Sassy
Published on Thursday, January 14, 2010 by Caryn Bailey I don't remember when I started buying toys for my son. I'm certain my baby shower resulted in books, stuffed animals, and other eye candy for babies. Play is vital for learning and development in children, and choosing the appropriate toys can be challenging. Sassy, a company dedicated to offering developmental toys for babies, works with child development exper... Read More » -

All About Baby: The Organized Mom
Published on Monday, January 11, 2010 by Caryn Bailey Organization is the process of eliminating the excess and finding a place for everything...Stacey Crew If you ask my husband on any given day what he would really like from me...it's to be organized. I have always struggled with organization, and having children has only complicated this. I am not one to make New Year's resolutions, but organization is something ... Read More » -

All About Baby: Amon Maternity
Published on Monday, January 11, 2010 by Caryn Bailey *Updated With Promotion* I have to admit that when I look at pictures from my pre-pregnancy years, I get a little nostalgic for the days when I didn't have to worry about bodyshapers. People used to tell me that having a baby changes a woman's body...but I really had no idea until after my son was born that I may never have a flat tummy again. It's been 3 weeks si... Read More » -

All About Baby: Fresh Organics *Giveaway*
Published on Saturday, January 9, 2010 by Caryn Bailey This contest is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. Congrats to Nan Lara! When our baby girl was born (3 weeks ago!), my husband had an opportunity to help with her first bath. The nurses naturally wanted to do it right away (apparently to "disinfect" the baby!). Since we did not go to the hospital that day thinking we would be greeting her, we did not have a bag... Read More » -

All About Baby: myBibzy
Published on Friday, January 8, 2010 by Caryn Bailey Babies spit up. It's a given. My son spit up until he was over 6 months of age and my daughter seems to be following suit. Apart from the fact that it's messy and time consuming, it doesn't seem to bother her, so we (including our Pediatrician) aren't concerned. I never know when I'm going to have to change her (I don't like her wet), so I have a plentiful sup... Read More » -

All About Baby: Baby Briefcase
Published on Monday, January 4, 2010 by Caryn Bailey I don't tend to make a lot of New Year's resolutions, but I have two in mind for this year. The first is to lose the baby weight for good. The second? To get organized! For some reason I struggle immensely with organization. Whether it be my fridge, my desk, or my children's important paperwork, organization for me is a struggle. And now that we have 2 chi... Read More » -

All About Baby: The Precious Club
Published on Sunday, January 3, 2010 by Caryn Bailey I fully admit that I'm having so much fun dressing and shopping for our sweet baby girl. If you've ever shopped for baby and children's clothing, than you know that the plethora of adorable attire for girls is never-ending. It's boys that I have a difficult time with! But I think I've managed to find some nice pieces for my son over the past two years. The Pr... Read More » -

Runway Maternity Fashion: Moody Mamas
Published on Tuesday, December 29, 2009 by Caryn Bailey It's hard to believe that one week ago, I was pregnant and now I'm not. I'm not complaining...at all. It's just the strangest feeling to be pregnant for almost an entire year and then one day you're just not. I am overjoyed at having our baby girl with us. I'm not one who does pregnancy well. I don't glow and generally just feel awkward. Because I think th... Read More » -

I am one of the first to admit that I just adore shopping for my kids. I don't even bother shopping for myself anymore because it's so much more fun to pick out smart threads for my 2 year old or pretty dresses for my newborn. For the most part, I purchase eco-friendly, ... Read More »
