Sept. 22 Must-Have: Elephant Umbrella

Today’s Must-Have was inspired by the historic proportions of rain and flooding we’ve had here in Atlanta in the last couple of days. Schools are closed today, our front yard had a river running through it, and there are a lot of people in very sad situations right now, but we are very lucky to be safe in our home with no terrible damage (downstairs playroom water damage) or injuries.

Elephant Umbrella

You have never seen a more adorable umbrella. This wonderfully painted wooden elephant will help protect your little one from the rain, but don’t be surprised, with a fun boing boing “springy” head and a bright pink lacquered finish, your child may just wish for a downpour!

How much is it? $28
Where can I buy it? Little Wonderland

Here is a short slideshow of our minor flooding:

Vincent Shoes: Back-to-School and Fall ’09 lines

Vincent Shoes - back to school shoes for kids

How cute are these shoes?

My kids have been wearing Vincent shoes for almost 3 years.. not the same ones. I am always amazed at how freakin’ cute they are and how well they hold up.  Sebastian wore his OSKAR‘s forever.

Vincent Shoes:

  • are stylish shoes for kids
  • are durable
  • provide comfortable protection for little feet
  • wipe clean with a damp cloth
  • are available for babies through school age kids
  • true sizes (not sized by month/age)
  • available in lots of cute styles and colors

Madelyn is wearing the Susan style in the photograph above. The Susan is a low cut boot with soft inner padding that protects her little feet and will surely keep them warm on cold days.  She LOVES them and wore them for hours the first day she had them despite having no where to go to show them off.

Visit Vincent Shoes to check out their Back-to-School selection and shop their latest styles.

Milkdot PVC-free Lunch Tote

milkdot-lunchbox

As the new school year draws near my search for the perfect lunch box goes into full swing. I was looking for a PVC-free and lead-free bag that is insulated and can accommodate a Sigg bottle and bento box lunches. Of course it has to be modern, good looking and easy for my preschooler to carry. After a thorough online search I have found the perfect lunch tote. The Stoh lunch tote by Milkdot meets all of my wish list requirements and it comes in a sweet pink/brown color combo. The Stoh also comes in blue/brown. Not to mention the fact that the Stoh lunch tote is designed by a very chic New York mom named Janet Cho who is a graphic designer and founder of Milkdot. The Stoh lunch box has modern appeal for me and I’m sure that we’ll be taking the tote on outings as well. I’m impressed by the thoughtful functionality of the Stoh lunch tote. For one it can fold flat, a plus for storage. It has ID tag which will hopefully prevent it from going missing, inside pockets to hold ice packs, a water repellent finish, outside pocket for utensils and napkins, and there is a magnetic closure to keep the handles together when carrying the tote.
