AListBaby Find: Choochi Baby

Filed Under (Shower) by mary on 07-02-2010

Everyone loves burp cloths that are hand-sewn and come made-to-order! They are perfect baby shower gifts. Each Choochi Baby Burp Cloth has an initial embroidered, custom fabric patch with coordinating ribbon and comes bundled in a set of two.  Each burp cloth is soft and super-absorbent.  The cloth itself is a heavy weight for durability, too. We received a set of Emma burp cloths as a gift from Choochi Baby, and we think they are terrific! Truly luxe. The site has cute t-shirts and little personalized photo albums, too.

AListBaby Find: Think Geek JetBib

Filed Under (Playtime) by mary on 05-02-2010

We knew the web site Think Geek had fun gift ideas, but we never knew they sold baby gifts! We love this illuminated JetBib Think Geek sent us, valued at $19.99. The runway lights on the bib actually light up, and the airplane-shaped spoon makes mealtime more fun for your little ones. This is such a fun gift idea for aviation-loving parents. Robyn, I am thinking of your husband right now!

AListBaby Find: Get Buttoned Up

Filed Under (Shopping) by mary on 05-02-2010

An organized home is a happy home, right?! Mr. Alist and I have been on an organizational kick this new year. We are both very organized people….because when things are neat and orderly, it is easier to get a job done. Like birthday cards, for instance. When I was in grade school, I babysat for a woman who made out her birthday cards at the beginning of each month, stamped and addressed them, and then attached a sticky note alerting her of when to mail them. Wow. A girl can dream. Come to think of it, this wonder woman was also skinny and perpetually tan. (Baby steps, Mary!) Remembering my loved ones birthdays will be easier with this Birthday Book, $4.95 from a company called Get Buttoned Up. I am entering our family and friends’ birthdays today, and I will let you know how our road to organization in 2010 is going!

Bright Starts InGenuity Playard

Filed Under (Furniture) by mary on 01-02-2010

Hooray! Finally, we tested a playard with the latest functionality, that is also easy to assemble and looks fantastic. The Bright Starts InGenuity Playard is like raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens! The bed itself adjusts to different sizes. Our ten month old did not need the bassinet, but it would work perfectly for a little one. The bassinet even has two sleep positions, flat or inclined. And the changing table portion has a great side tray that keeps diapers and wipes where you need them! It also pivots to the side when not in use. My favorite feature is called “One Less Step”, and it allows you to quickly fold the playard without moving the bassinet. The travel bag looks sleek, and it is easy to carry. Grandma’s house, here we come! We are so thankful for this one. Check out the online demo here! And here is a note from Bright Starts: Baby on the Way? Before Baby arrives, win a getaway to pamper yourself and enjoy some downtime. We’re giving away a luxurious 7-night babymoon vacation to three lucky couples. Relax and reconnect at an incredible U.S. Virgin Islands destination - St. Thomas, St. Croix, or St. John. Enter to win at www.brightstarts.com/babymoon
