Tame that bottle!

Lilbahbee
My son, Sebastian, recently told me that I am a "germaphone"… AKA germaphobe.  It mortifies me when Madelyn’s pacifier, bottle, or toys touch the floor, counter top or other surface that might have a germ or two million on it. Thank goodness there is someone else like me out there that was smart enough to invent a product that will keep these things from falling to the floor especially while out and about.

The Lil BahBee™ Bottle Tamer® is an adjustable baby bottle strap that conveniently secures your child’s bottle, sippy cup, or favorite toy to a number of locations.

You simply attach the toy, bottle, or sippy cup to one end of the Bottle Tamer then attach the other end to an exercauser, stroller, highchair, car seat handle, or shopping cart and WHALLA, you have an item that may not get 5 million germs on it due to falling on the ground!  YEAH Lil BahBee.

This is one of the greatest products I have seen yet and priced at only $8.50, you can buy several..one to keep in the car, at Grandma’s house, and of course in your house.

My only wish is that the Bottle Tamer come in other colors such as pink for girls and blue for boys.

Personalized Halloween Outfit for Baby

Oh my gosh! I was wondering what to dress Madelyn up as for Halloween but I have to look no further. She was given this great personalized halloween outfit by Bisou Boutique and I love it!

This soft and lightweight halloween outfit has satin feet with "trick" printed on one foot and "treat" printed on the other. Madelyn has tried very hard to eat her feet in this outfit. She thinks they are very yummy looking.

The outfit snaps in the back so there aren’t any unsightly snaps to take away from the super cuteness of the outfit.

Your baby is sure to get a lot of attention in this outfit!

We even used the bow that came on the outfit’s hanger in her hair to add a little more cuteness to the look.

Buy your baby’s halloween outfit ASAP so you will get it on time!  Bisou Boutique also sells a cute devil halloween outfit for babies. The devil outfit has a tail!  How cute!

Mama Needs It!


There is nothing cute about these onesies… did I just say that?!  They are super COOL! I love the Beastie Boys and now I can spread the love through Madelyn’s clothing.  Every once in a while parents want to get away from the pink and blue frills and dress baby in something…cool,  not cute. Now parents can live vicariously through their infant while he/she is wearing a Beastie Boys, Foo Fighters, Blink 182 onesie. The band logo is featured on a black onesie to give baby a cool, tough look. I think these are adorable on little girls. It’s time to step out of the box and put your little girl in a band onesie from Mama Needs It!

Miracle Blanket

Sleep? What’s that? Almost all parents of newborns ask that question to themselves daily for a few months at least. Newborns do not have the best ability to calm themselves as they are used to being gently rocked in mom’s womb which is no longer the case when they enter this great big, bright, noisy world!  As most of you may already know, I am a huge believer in the 4 trimester which simply put, is a belief that babies should be treated as if they are still in the womb for 3 months after birth.
One great way to achieve this comforting feeling is to swaddle your baby. Babies are confined to a tiny space for 9 months where they are not able to make spastic movements such as they do when after birth. Babies are not able to control their arm and leg movements for a few months so swaddling eases baby’s movements and gives baby a feeling of security. It is a fact that babies need sleep for good development.  With the Miracle Blanket, getting baby to sleep is easier as you don’t have to hold down flailing arms and legs.

With so many "swaddling blankets" available today, it can be difficult to choose one that you feel comfortable with and that your baby will enjoy. The Miracle Blanket was made with parents and babies in mind. The blanket is thin and flexible making it easy to use and comfortable for baby. The Miracle Blanket is recommended by pediatricians and nurses.

I love the Miracle Blanket. It is simple to use. It is cut with swaddling in mind.. it is not cut like an ordinary blanket. The Miracle Blanket comes to you with instructions and you can find instructions on the website.

Custom Birth Announcements @ PB Kisses

Pbkisses2
It is every parents wish to have the cutest baby announcements ever, right?  Well, it was mine.  When Sebastian was born (now 7), we went to the ‘paper shop’ in the mall and ordered baby announcements there. They were cute… but they weren’t custom. This time around, I got lucky and received the most wonderful custom baby announcments from PB Kisses. My wish came true! PB Kisses announcments are not your everyday announcments. You can’t order anything like these from a ‘paper store’.

When shopping at PB Kisses, parent start by choosing from several designs. Mom and Dad can customize the color of their announcments.  Parents can even request to have their color photograph turned into black and white or sepia which I think is just beautiful. The process is simple.. you simply choose the design you want from a page full of designs, click the Order button on the website and fill out a quick form that gives Angela all of the information she needs to design your custom baby announcments.

What’s even better? You can have custom mailing labels, thank you cards, party invites, holiday cards, baptism invites, and change of address cards made too!

Way to go Angela!!
