While we were learning about these sleek David Netto cribs by Maclaren Nursery, we discovered the Quest Zodiac! It is such a stylish buggy, by Maclaren. After you purchase the stroller, Maclaren sends you the Zodiac pillow of your choice to be inserted in the stroller. How fun is that? The stroller is lightweight, easy to pop open and close shut with one hand, and we just know baby loves the smooth ride! We like the sleek navy blue. It is modern, unpretentious and fresh. Check out the company’s Facebook page, too! The stroller weighs 12.1 pounds, and is suitable for babies more than three months old, up to 55 pounds. All Maclaren strollers are equipped with hinge covers and are fully compliant with enhanced safety requirements.

Pediped is one of the best sources for the latest baby/toddler/child shoe technology! The new “Grip ‘n’ Go” shoe is perfect for the active toddler! These shoes are made with all the benefits of Originals, but with special G2 technology for active toddlers. G2 technology includes a specialized soft rubber sole, rounded edges that mimic the natural shape of a child’s foot, heel stability and a soft toe box that allows toes to curl and grip the floor. It gives toddlers the ideal combination of protection and flexibility as they improve their walking ability. And….the Pediped Footwear System is always super cute! Our little tester loves her silver pair with polka dots! You can check out the Pediped Facebook page to receive special notice of promotions!

I cannot resist another post on Jersey Couture’s Scali family today. The photo below is of Chrissy and her niece, Francesca, with her Inglesina Classica pram. The pram is available at Posh Tots for $1,299. The photo was taken on Francesca’s christening day. Love it! It may be my destiny to own one of these prams some day. The prams are made in Italy….I lived in Italy for a semester during college….I see a connection!

We are absolutely loving the Britax Advocate CS we received in the mail last week! The Britax Advocate Click & Safe Convertible Car Seat has Side Impact Cushion Technology, which protects both the child in the seat and adjacent passengers in the event of a side impact crash. The harness indicator feature “clicks” when the harness straps are snug, so you know your little one is secure. The seat has an easy-turn knob to quickly adjust the headrest and harness height without having to uninstall the car seat. A higher forward-facing weight capacity allows children to remain harnessed up to 65 pounds with a tangle-free, five-point harness to ensure a secure fit. We love how this seat lasts from newborn to 65 pounds! Thanks, Britax!

TGIF! We are getting into the swing of summer around here, and starting to think about the upcoming Independence Day holiday. We are having a few people over to our house, and we may play a little Cornhole, with our set from cornhole-game.org! We received this white 4X2′ regulation board with blue and red bags. Mr. AList’s family in Ohio are champs at this, and white we are just beginners, it is a lot of fun! Also known as Corn Toss, you can learn about the game online here, and you may want to add it to your family’s roster of fun this summer!

Baby Planet sent us this stylish Mackenzie stroller, designed by luxe baby bag designer, timi & leslie. Now, your stroller and your baby bag can match. We love it! The set-up was a breeze, and the large cup holder and deep basket makes life on the go managable for busy moms. We also like the sophisticated black and white color scheme. (No clashing with any of baby or mom’s outfits.) Two thumbs up!

There are few baby shower gifts more stylish than a package of swaddle blankets from aden + anais. We reviewed a package of four 100% cotton muslin blankets, and they are so light and soft! The fashionable designs blend well with a stylish mommy’s outfit, too. The open weave also prevents overheating for baby on a warm summer night. We love the fresh designs on these blankets. And we love watching expectant mothers practice their swaddling technique…too cute!

Lately, we have received many e-mails from moms-to-be interested in stylish and modern baby items. “I do not want it to look like a plastic jungle in my living room!” one stylish expectant mom lamented. This is why we were excited to receive an e-mail from the website AllModern.com, a site with everything from tv stands to modern home furnishings and baby gear. We are excited to review the DwellStudio Soft Blocks. I will give you the scoop as soon as we receive them! And we have many modern theme nursery photos on the way next month!
