So Easy Toddler Food Cookbook is made by Fresh Baby, a company who helps promoet healthy eating. The cookbook has 35 recipies with all the nutrition information and serving sizes. There is also a section of tips concerning food time. Almost all of the recipies look really good, thought there are a few that I personaly wouldn't try. The recipie I liked the best was the black bean soup. It's very easy and inexpensive to make. It's also quick to make, considering that you have to use a food processer to puree the soup. The recipe made enought for all of us to eat on for about two days with some left overs. Hannah loved it so much, that I made another batch just to freeze so she could have it frequently. The only problem that I noticed was that the directions left out one of the ingredients; the green chilies. I just went ahead and tossed them in with what was being processed. Overall, I'm very pleased with this book and plan on making several of the other recipes in it. The ...

You can turn the page and interact it with it. As the narrator reads the story, the words are highlighted. The pages are also animated, which can be toggled on or off. The sign up process was quick and easy, while the website is a breeze to navigate. The prices are good ss well. If you only want to buy one book, it's $8 however. But, if you get the packs, the prices are a lot better. You only have to pay for a story once. It will be added to your story list and you be able to access it whenever you want. The site also offers a kids safe internet browser, and well as friendly forums that are monitored 24 hours a day. I thought that the stories were very cute and my daughter seemed to enjoy them.

Product Review: SmartKnitKIDS Seamless Socks
For the past two weeks, I have been trying out SmartKnitKIDS seamless socks. I received an adult pair for myself and two pairs for Hannah. The socks are seamless and form fitting, so they do not slide down with wear. After wearing them, I must they that they are absolutely wonderful. Hananh always has a tendency to pull off her socks or just simply wiggle out of them. With the SmartKnitKIDS, she was unable to do so. In fact, they didn't bother her one bit. I myself usually buy the ankle cut socks since the crew socks always slide down. These stayed up even while exercising. They will be great to wear with jeans once it gets colder. The other great thing about them is that my feet didn't sweat in them at all. In fact, I intentionally wore them three days in a row to test out the claim that fibers in the sock inhibits odor. Sound gross, I know, but I usually end up having to change my socks a few times a day due to getting wet and grimy. The SmartKnitKIDS beat my expectations by a ...

Product Review: Pampers Swaddlers
While in the hospital after Hannah was born, we were provided with Swaddlers. I've always thought of Pampers as being a very good brand, being that it is usually the first name you think of in diapers. However, I was sorely disappointed after using only a few diapers.The diapers were not absorbant at all. Everything seemed to run right out the sides and back no matter how sung you make them fit. Hannah also developed horrible diaper rash almost immediately after the first diaper was put on. Her entire bottom was red, as well as her front, and she was sore to the touch. It only got worse with each changing. Not even Desitin helped. We were stuck using them for about 3 days until I was discharged from the hospital. Once we got home and started using Huggies, the rash went away after about 12 hours.Since then, Pampers has come out with the new Dry Max which has been causing extreme diaper rash with infants that almost look like chemical burns. I'm not sure if the Pampers at the hospital ...
Product Review: Bumbo Seat
My mother-in-law, Sandy, made a big fuss about these and said I needed to buy one. I told her I wasn't about to spend $40 on one when Hannah could already sit up at 2 1/2 months. She ended up buying two at a yard sale and brought them over. Hannah has used the lilac one several times and once with the tray. She sits at such an odd angel in it that it makes her uncomfortable. She won't sit still in it and will quickly climb out of it. Her legs also get wedged in the leg holes at times as well. The tray is good because I can put her food on it...but that only occupies her for a few minutes before she's trying to get out of it again. Bumbos are good if your baby is just starting to sit up, but after that they are pretty useless. It's not worth the $40 to only be able to use it about a month or two. ...
