First Side Pony!
I know this isn't a huge milestone but now that she is older, milestones are getting more and more spaced out. Isn't she just the cutest thing alive with her side pony tail? I just can't believe how old and beautiful she is in this picture! … [Read more...]
Babymel Amanda Diaper Bag Review
When I was on my search (for the third time) for a diaper bag, I felt like I knew a lot more (or at least hoped so) of what I wanted in a diaper bag.

Cloth Diapering | My Diaper System

When we are on the go out of the house I usually keep two (more if it is a longer trip) diapers in my diaper … [Read more...]
Vulli Sophie Giraffe Teething Toy Review
Ohh Sophie, how I love you. One of my good friends, Caley, is an awesome nanny and told me about this teething toy and said that it was a "must have" item. She even went as far to say that if a baby that she was caring for didn't have this teething toy, that she would go out and buy them one! I immediately put the Vulli Sophie Giraffe on my registry and hoped and prayed that someone would get it for us. Caley was nice enough to send us … [Read more...]
