Little Playzone with Sounds and Lights

Not all babies are content to sit in the pack and play with a few toys after they get mobile. That's why the Little Playzone can be a lifesaver for a busy parent. Bright colors and sounds keep your baby entertained and safe in an enclosed area. The play area is 13 square feet and and can be used indoors or outdoors. Also, unlike boring circular gates, the Little Playzone is a welcoming place for your child. Now there's no excuse not to get those chores done.

Salter Electronic Baby Scale and Toddler Scale

I remember my husband's grandmother telling me how a mom would weigh her baby so many years ago. Basically, a mom would get on the scale, weigh herself and then hold her baby and weigh herself again. Then, based on a simple math equation, you would have the weight of the baby. Whew, I'm glad those days are over. I don't know a single post partum mother that wants to get on a scale. But most moms do want to track the weight of their baby. This electronic baby scale has a unique design that holds the weight steady even as the baby wiggles around. Then as your baby turns into a toddler, you can take the basket off the base to reveal a cute teddy bear shaped scale your little one will love to use.

Halo Fleece SleepSack - Dog Print

I wrote about the sleep sack recently, but since we've had pretty cold weather lately, I thought I would revisit it. It's one of my favorite baby items. This one has an adorable dog pattern. Of course it has the same safety features that you trust. Plus it's warm and toasty. As the nights get colder and longer, don't forget to keep your little one warm too.

Graco Quattro Tour Deluxe Travel System

I inherited a Graco Travel System from a friend who was getting rid of hers. She said she was giving it to me because she was tired of seeing me wrestle with another brand that I already had. She swore by her Graco stroller. It was so easy to maneuver. I have to say, she was right! I don't know why I spent so much time tolerating my other system. This one was so much more mom-friendly. It has a one handed folding and unfolding feature and the storage is so much more accessible. There's even plenty of space on the tray for toys, sippy cups, and snacks. I can appreciate that when I'm out shopping with my friend.

Hushamok Organic MySeat, Natural

Okay, I admit, it looks strange. It's not your typical baby seat. There are no bright colors or sounds that are normally included in baby accessories. But this seat is designed to be so comfortable, you will be wishing you had one. It's built to outlast other baby seats too; it holds up to 50 pounds. You just have to wait a little longer to use it. Babies need to be 8 to 12 weeks old before you place them inside. Since you can use it longer, it's actually more economical than the small, more colorful seats and bouncers. In this economy, that's something mom and dad can appreciate.

If you where anywhere on the east coast this weekend, you know the cold weather is here. Instead of watching leaves turn colors, some were watching snow fall.

Stork Craft Hoop Glider and Ottoman

I still love the glider that I bought when my first son was born 7 years ago. I think this is one of the most functional purchases you can make when you are pregnant. When you no longer need it in the nursery, you can move it to the family room. This model has ample cushioning on the arm rest, which provides comfort when your baby falls asleep on your arm. There are also pockets on the sides so you will always know where the important items are. Finally, the ottoman is included, which is a good thing because you will definitely want to put your feet up at night!
