Beautifully Baby

Posted by Robin . on Tuesday, February 1, 2011, In : Baby Gear 
One of my favorite things to whisper in the ears of my blog readers and friends is where to find absolutely wonderful baby shower gifts. I've always loved giving gifts of any kind but, baby shower gifts are their own brand of special. Every item always warrants a collective "ooh" and "ahh" and with each tiny gift you can imagine the tiny perfect person that will use them. To me, when shopping for baby shower gifts, everything you browse through should invoke those same emotions and reactions....

Luna Lullaby GIVEAWAY CLOSED

Posted by Robin . on Monday, October 11, 2010, In : Baby Gear 
From pregnancy to birth and beyond, one of the most important things for mom and baby is comfort. The sad fact is that, often times, the comfort mom and baby so need is often rather elusive. Pregnancy can be an uncomfortable time for mom while a newborn can sometimes be quite fussy just due to discomfort from many different things. Luna Lullaby is an amazing company that has taken advice from leading experts and combined it with their own parenting experiences to design top quality products d...

Item gets tossed on the floor.

Item gets tossed on the floor.

You pick it up.

Repeat ad nauseum.

Does that game sound familiar to anyone? The parents will probably recognize it as a normal routine when you have a baby. It's fun for them. Sometimes annoying for the parent. Sometimes messy for the floor. When my kids were very young and realizing the cause and effect of throwing objects on the floor, this game happened quite often at dinnertime. Usually, I wou...

Beba Bean Giveaway and Coupon Code CLOSED

Posted by Robin . on Monday, July 19, 2010, In : Baby Gear 
GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED

When I was pregnant with my son I read a ton of parenting and baby magazines. I remember repeatedly seeing ads and mentions of something called a Pee Pee Teepee and thinking it was the most genius thing ever. When he was born, and I got my first glimpse of what can happen when changing a boy's diaper, I was convinced that the Pee Pee Teepee was the most genius thing ever.



Here, almost 6 years later, I've been introduced again to the fabulous mom-owned company that makes, not...

Juppy Baby Walker CLOSED

Posted by Robin . on Tuesday, June 1, 2010, In : Baby Gear 
GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED

There are many products out there that make a parent's life easier. Sometimes you find something that you didn't even realize you needed until you use it. The juppy is my new "must have" for all parents.

I remember when my kids were babies and just learning how to stand and walk. It seems like hours upon hours that a parent stands hunched over, holding a child upright and walking them around. If you've ever done this, you know about the backaches, the headrush that comes fro...

GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED

My children aren't that old. Still, the gear used for them has changed and improved so much since they were babies. As I find new products and new websites, I'm compiling my notebook of "must haves" and "must reads" to use the next time around. One of my favorite new resources and line of products is Tommee Tippee.

Tommee Tippee is Great Britain's #1baby feeding brand and includes amazing bottles, cups, tableware, pacifiers and accessories.

Bugaloo Shoes CLOSED

Posted by Robin Haws on Saturday, December 12, 2009, In : Baby Gear 
THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

I'm such a sucker for cute kid shoes. My daughter has tons of shoes and I really can't help myself with wanting more and more for her. Even when my son was a baby, we always had tons of shoes. It can be difficult to find really comfy baby shoes. Soft soled baby shoes are wonderful because they are so comfortable for the babies but, protective at the same time.


Bugaloo has some super cute soft soled baby shoes. The baby shoes are not only adorable but, absolutely high ...

Supermama Teething Necklace CLOSED

Posted by Robin Haws on Friday, November 20, 2009, In : Baby Gear 
THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

Natural pain remedies are becoming increasingly popular. A natural pain remedy for an infant or child can be a welcome relief from medication. Natural relief from the pain associated with teething can be a wonderful thing and really ease a parent's mind while easing the baby's pain.

Natural amber is a centuries-old pain remedy. Remember in Jurassic Park when they showed the mosquito in the pretty yellow/orange colored rock? That's amber. It's fossilized resin from tr...

Lifefactory CLOSED

Posted by Robin Haws on Thursday, November 19, 2009, In : Baby Gear 
THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

There are some items that are just considered "essential" for babies. No matter your personal preference for clothing, diapering, swaddling and all the other multitude of choices that come along with a new baby, it's safe to say that any new mom and new baby can use and will need bottles and teethers. It's also safe to say that the other "essential" for babies is that we take care of their future and the future of their planet. What if you could get the essential pro...

Bamboosa, BambooBaby Review and Giveaway CLOSED

THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

One reader will win a Cable Knit Blanket from Bamboosa.


My kids have a blanket that I steal all the time. It is the softest thing I've ever felt and, though it's a baby blanket, it's large enough to cover my legs. I wish I could wrap my whole body in it and wear it all the time. Really. I would do it. Why is it so soft and comfy? It's made from bamboo. Where could something so wonderful come from? BambooBaby by Bamboosa.

PopATot Review and Giveaway CLOSED

Posted by Robin Haws on Friday, September 18, 2009, In : Baby Gear 
THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

One reader will win a PopATot!

Before our kids started walking we used to take their walkers, car seats or strollers with us everywhere just to have somewhere to put them down at family get togethers or outings. While those things certainly serve their purposes, they can be bulky and, let's face it, boring for the kids. When I first saw the PopATot I was amazed. "What a cool invention", I thought to myself. When I received one and actually tried it out I was an instan...

By the Book: How to Take Care of My Kids CLOSED

Posted by Robin Haws on Friday, September 18, 2009, In : Baby Gear 
CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

Whether your kids have a nanny, babysitter, grandma or any other type of caregiver and no matter how much or how little time they spend watching them, you will have to leave them a note or two at some point. More than likely, a ton of notes at all points. Chances are good, they'll also have notes for you. Personally, I always feel a little like I'm nagging when asking the dozens of questions that accompany picking up the kids and all the orders that are required when drop...

Bummas Review and Giveaway CLOSED

Posted by Robin Haws on Monday, August 31, 2009, In : Baby Gear 
THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

One reader will win a set of Bummas!


I would think that diaper rash is probably one of the most common problems that new parents and their babies deal with. It seems to me that it is so common that parents have pretty much resigned themselves to the thought that it will eventually happen and need a plan of action for clearing it up. How about a plan of action for preventing it from the get go? And in walks, Bummas.

These little parent invented cloths are perfect. The B...

Bath Luve Giveaway CLOSED

THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED
One lucky reader will win a Bath Luve and a Bath Buddy!




I remember when my kids were babies and we'd give them a bath. I figure it's pretty customary to lay a washcloth over their torsos to keep them warm while bathing. Serves it's purpose I suppose though, as they grow, the washcloth doesn't really cover all the important parts. When I found the Bath Luve I truly wished my kids were still infants!

What an amazing invention! Leave it to a mom to invent something so per...

Boogie Wipes Review and Giveaway - CLOSED

Posted by Robin Haws on Thursday, July 9, 2009, In : Baby Gear 
THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

I used to work in a daycare. Anyone who's ever worked in one or been in one knows that daycares and schools are the homes of some of the snottiest noses around. I was constantly wiping noses. No matter how soft, tissue eventually leads to irritation and can never get the really stubborn boogies! Like most moms, I've often used baby wipes on my own kids faces. I always disliked it, but arriving at your destination only to find your perfectly clean child now has a boo...

Snoogie Seat Giveaway- CLOSED

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

One lucky reader will win a Snoogie Seat from Daddy's Design!!!


When my daughter was an infant we had all the seating for babies. She spent time in her baby papason chair, boucy seat, bumbo and with a nursing pillow and blanket on the floor. I had problems with all of them. Putting her flat on the floor always seemed uncomfortable and the nursing pillow seemed really awkward on her neck. The bumbo was far too unsafe for her neck until she was much older. The chair an...
