Yesterday we focused on you and looking cute in the kitchen...today we focus on the toddler. We found this cute toddler apron at Lucky Ducky Designs. They offer 24 cute styles to choose from at $24.00. The best part is...you can throw it in the washing machine when you're little "helper" is done in the kitchen.

It's the name game

When my daughter was in daycare, I was asked to write her name on her bottles and sippy cups. I used all kinds of pens and markers (even those claiming to be permanent), but it never failed after a few washes in the good old dishwasher there I was again in need of a marker to rewrite her name on the cups. So I thought to myself, there has to be an easier way (and one that looks less tacky). Check out these bottle/sippy cup labels. They slide on very easily and can be reused over and over again. If your child has a common name, you can get 3 for $7.95. Bumpy Name. This company is really cool, they even offer name bands in brail.

Fun Baby Game

Today's post isn't about any product that you can buy....it's an online game that you can play with your baby. I know my daughter is fascinated by the computer. Basically you press the space bar or let your child attempt to press the space bar and different baby face photos come onto the screen. Baby Faces Game

You ROCK baby!

Check out this music website. www.pandora.com So much better than yahoo music...this site learns what type of music you like and only plays things you like. Has an easy to use interface, just type in an artist or album that you like and it will start playing it...it searches its database of other similar artists/albums and plays those next, you then give the song a thumbs up or thumbs down, which tells the site more about your music likes. After a while, it learns your tastes and provides great music that you are sure to love! AWESOME!

Pouchee


It's hard being a mommy. Sometimes I feel like my official title should be bag lady. It seems that no matter where we go I get to carry at least 3 bags (not including any of the items that I want to bring like lipstick, sunglasses, wallet, etc.). We've scoured high and low to find a small bag that allows you to tuck the items you want to take along into your diaper bag or whatever other bag you might be carrying. Pouchees can be found at, http://www.pouchee.com/, and cost $21.99.


The makers of the Pouchee say the following about their product:

Baby Bag! If you are a mother, carrying a baby and diaper bag is hard enough. Throw your pouchee® in with the diapers and leave the purse at home.
Beach Bag! If you are headed for the beach, just drop your pouchee® in your beachbag and catch some rays.
Gym Bag! If you work out at the gym, your pouchee® can go from your purse to your gym bag and you're on your way.
Briefcase! If you are an active business woman, never again try to juggle your briefcase and a purse.
Backpack! If you are a student, drop your pouchee® in your backpack and you're ready for class. Watch those A's appear on your next report card.
Carry-On! If you are rushing to the airport, just tuck your pouchee® in your carry-on, relax and enjoy the flight.
