Every parent wants peace of mind when they have kids. Maybe sometimes our peace of mind is a bit obsessive, and requires baby monitors, video cameras, and any way to check on baby when they are sleeping or not in the same room. So much can happen! You hear stories of SIDS and it's hard not to keep an eye on your baby, even when YOU should be sleeping. A good baby monitor has always been at the top of my "Baby Must Haves" list. With so many ...

Fisher Price Introduces their SnugaBear Line! #Review
The moment you find out you are pregnant, your head starts swirling with questions: Is it a boy or a girl? Who will it look like? How big will I get? What do I need for baby? It's inevitable - you will get suckered into the latest baby gadgetry solely based on it's wow factor in the store, but once you bring it home you will wonder why you thought you needed it in the first place. I wasn't immune to this trap, although the second time around I ...
Fisher Price SnugaBear SpaceSaver High Chair Review!
When I was pregnant with my first baby, I did a ton of research before making any baby gear purchases. I was looking for safe and functional, easy designs that would last for multiple children in gender neutral colors. Out of all my purchases, there is only one item that I was able to use for both children - the infant car seat. So, you can say that I was slightly disappointed when I had to buy new gear for baby #2. This time around I knew what I ...
Make Your Own Baby Food with the Baby Bullet! (#Giveaway)
Do you make your own baby food? I've been making my own baby food since my oldest daughter started solids. People use to think I was crazy - working full time as a teacher, taking night classes, and still managing to make my baby homemade food. Many times people would ask why I didn't just choose the easy way and just buy jarred food - it's all the same, right? Well, no, it's not. There are added ingredients such as citric acid and ...
Ju-Ju-Be – For The Moms Who Think of Everything! Be Right Back Review
This summer has been quite busy for my family. We have a lot going on and leave early in the morning and don't come home until late in the evening. I've learned that I have to be prepared for everything, because once we leave home I don't plan on coming back. We have gone on day trips to the Bronx Zoo, Queens Zoo, Central Park Zoo, and NY Aquarium in Coney Island. I'm trying to get as much in as I can this summer, before my daughter heads to full ...

Don’t Forget the #PullsUpsPottyBreaks While Having Fun! #ad
My youngest baby is just about ready to start potty training, and I think it has a lot to do with the fact that she has an older sister. My youngest is very independent. She does her own thing, prefers to feed herself, and tries to do everything her big sister does. So, potty training isn't too far in the future for us, and we have already started taking steps to train her to use the potty. Each time her older sister uses the potty, she asks to ...
Potty Training with Pull-Ups Monsters U Training Pants #PullUpsPottyBreaks #ad
When my oldest was just 18 months old I introduced the potty. I now know that I fell victim to the pressure from other moms who seemed to know it all, and as a first time parent I thought this was the best time to start. Well, my son went along with the typical time-line. I started having him sitting on the potty fully clothed, then in just a diaper, then diaper-less.....and the hours of just sitting and waiting while I read potty book after ...
