My little girl is getting into sports and she is having so much fun! She just started a karate/gymnastics class where she learns how to control her body movements and gain strength. It is a great program tailored specifically for children her age who are not ready for karate. She asks to go back each time we leave, so I know she is having fun. This is the most important factor for me- she HAS to … [Read more...]
Don't be fooled by the title- dolls are NOT just for little girls. I really don't think that little boys should be excluded from pretend play when it comes to baby dolls- after all, one day they will most likely grow up to be fathers. Out of all the kids in the family, my 2 1/2 year old nephew the most excited to have a new little cousin to play with. His face lights up when I walk in the door … [Read more...]
Summer just started and we've already spent a lot of time outdoors with my toddler. One thing I always worry about when we are out is whether or not she is getting too much sun. A few years ago I had bought her the cutest two piece swimsuit that was a tankini and bottoms. The reason I opted for a tankini was because I thought it covered most of her skin, and the bottoms came off easily for diaper … [Read more...]
I'll admit- the past few months I've been the ultimate couch potato- pregnancy kicked my butt and as a result, my toddler didn't get to do much until my husband came home from work. This was a different routine from what she was use to since we were previously very active and frequented the park a few times a week. When weather didn't permit park days, we had indoor playdates or mommy and me … [Read more...]
I rarely have any down time but in that rare instance where I have a minute to myself to procrastinate relax, I like to unwind with an online game. My toddler has even gotten into online games and while some moms may not like the idea of their kids playing with the computer, I actually think it can be a positive learning experience. My little girl knows her way around the computer and knows what … [Read more...]
My family and I have always looked for ways to give back to the community and help those that need it. This past year, I found out about a local woman's shelter not too far from my house and I started a collection bin of basic necessities to take to the shelter. Whenever I am able to score awesome deals with coupons or rebates, I add them to the bin knowing that every little bit helps places that … [Read more...]
Summer is officially here and the heat wave in NYC reflects that! With temperatures reaching almost 100, I chose to keep my toddler and newborn indoors, but there will be plenty of mild summer days that we will be able to enjoy. We've already planned trips to the aquarium and zoo, we are just waiting for the perfect day to go! With so many products on the market that promise to protect skin, it … [Read more...]

A new design in the Bebek family is the Bebek Trainer Cup which is a great transition from bottle to sippy. The soft spout is good for babies who are just getting … [Read more...]
Summer is here and you know what that means? PARTYYYYYY! We have a lot of events over the summer. From birthdays and barbecues to ladies nights in and family events. My little girl is an "almost" summer baby. Technically her birthday falls in the summer season, but no one associates September with Summer. Still, the weather is warm when we plan her birthday, and we usually celebrate the end of … [Read more...]
