Baby Daze


It never fails… when my husband takes care of Madelyn (now 5 months), as soon as she starts to cry he tries to hand her to me and says "she’s hungry". That’s not always the case, and now I can tell him to go look in the Baby Daze book so he can find out when she ate last and when she slept last before he comes to me!  I love the Baby Daze book. It has actually helped out marriage because I don’t roll my eyes at my husband anymore when he tries to hand Madelyn off to me thinking that she is hungry or tired when she’s not! Now he knows! Anything that helps new parents helps a marriage!

New parents can keep track of their baby’s feeding times, sleep, doctor’s apointments, milestones, gifts baby has received, foods tried, contact information, and mom can even keep track of when she pumps, how much and how she stored it.

Baby Daze was created by a mother and father team, one a professional organizer and the other is the founder of nydads.com. They have a beautiful daughter who was the insipiration behind Baby Daze.

I highly recommend that new parents purchase Baby Daze as early as possible and this is a great baby shower gift!

Busy Body Book

Every family needs a "Busy Body Book".

The Busy Body Book allows families to break events down by person. There are 5 columns for each day. Each column can be titled with a persons name (see video for example) or by subject for students.  The front of the book features a list of the months with ample room to write down all the important events for each month.

When you start a new month, one full page includes a grid of 3 full months; the previous month, the current month and the next month for quick reference.
On an open spread, one page includes a "To Doodles" section and a notes area and the other page includes a grid of the current week.

Christian and Jewish holidays are featured in the Busy Body Book.

Toward the end of the book is a feature that I absolutely love!  It is an "apointments for next year" spread. You know when you go to the OB/GYN and they want you to make your next yearly apointment, you are thinking "right, like I am going to remember the date!?"  Well, now you will! 

Next there are several "Notes" pages.

To top it off, the book includes great little perforrated "To Do" pages with each page having 4 To Do perforrated sections.

At the end of the book you will find an "Important People" section…i.e. an address book.

The book comes with a bookmark that grabs the spiral binder so you can bookmark the current week.

There are 2 sturdy pockets; one in the inner cover and the other in the back of the book.
