Peanut Shell Nursing Cover



Along Came Baby is an online Baby Store Boutique based out of Markham, Ontario. They have a very user friendly and attractive website.

One of Along Came Baby's many amazing products for sale is the Peanut Shell Nursing Cover.



This wonderful 100% and therefore breathable nursing cover is a nursing Mom's dream come true. It has flexible boning in the neck in order to provide Mom with a view of her baby and to allow for greater air circulation.

I certainly wish that I had this type of a nursing cover when I nursed my first child. I remember feeling so hot when nursing in public and I really didn't care for the fact that I couldn't see what was going on under the cover. This is a wonderful invention so that the infants can look up at their Mom too. This nursing cover may just last a little longer in the nursing process. With my first child, she kept pulling off the cover so that she could see me!

Be sure to check out Along Came Baby next time you are looking for a gift or a unique and quality product for your baby.

Huddy Buddy



I love to see unique clothing for children. Huddy Buddy sells a clothing line that is just that! They sell a large variety of onesies, t-shirts, long sleeved shirts and pants for infants, toddlers and children.

Some of the sayings available on these good quality shirts are absolutely hilarious. I would love for my daughter to literally own one of each. The "Chatterbox" line is filled with adorable sayings that would definitely catch some attention your child's way.

As an added bonus, I love the fact that a percentage of every sale goes straight to the Sick Kids Foundation!

These shirts would make excellent gifts for the little ones in your life!

The Parking Pal Magnet

The Parking lot at the grocery store or mall can be a dangerous place for toddlers, preschoolers and even school age children. And a simple invention, created by a mom can help make parking lots a not-so-dangerous place!

After we had our second baby 8 months ago, the whole dilemma of going out with a 3 year old and an 8 month old for errand running or groceries seemed really daunting. But now we have a process down which includes the Parking Pal. The Parking Pal is a magnet that attaches to the outside of your car and your child is meant to put their hand on the car while you are busy putting your other child in the car or whatever else you may need to do.

Here is how it works...

Place the Parking Pal on the side of your vehicle, where it will remain safely attached at all times. It was specifically designed with bright colors, playful illustrations, and a small palm children love to place their hands on. After a couple learning sessions, your child will discover that the Parking Pal is their safe spot, and they will know where to go the second they are outside the car. It also helps teach them that parking lots are no place to play.

I was talking to a friend about this the other day -- and she said what about how hot it is. Doesn't the magnet get hot? I have decided to keep the magnet in my purse and not on the car at all times. I simply place the magnet where is needed and my preschooler places his hand on it and waits.

Although we love this invention and it has worked wonders for us -- it doesn't replace proper supervision, so alwatys be aware!

Baby Chaleco Performance Wear



Baby Chaleco performance wear is top notch quality!

You can literally spill an entire cup of liquid on these bibs and not one drop will leak through. The outer layer is made from extremely soft material that is not only soft and cozy for baby, but also absorbs some of the spills so that they don't roll right off of the bib, something that happens with many waterproof bibs on the market.

Baby Chaleco makes very stylish options for boys and girls.

They use high quality materials and have thought of every loop hole imaginable! They use snaps rather than velcro so that they don't stick to other items in the laundry, nor can baby rip them off too easily. Their sizing is very generous and go from newborn up through the toddler years.

True Waterproof bibs are hard to find. Good quality and child safe ones are even more difficult to find. These days there are safety concerns with so many products that are made for babies and children. Baby Chaleco products have no pthalates, PVCs or lead. Baby Chaleco has also been approved by Safe Start for Kids.

Itzbeen



If only I had known about the Itzbeen with my first child. It would have made keeping track of changing, feeding and sleeping much easier and neater. We used notebooks, loose sheets of paper and the computer (that I would have boot up everytime I had something new to add) with my first child. None of these methods even begin to compare with the amazing invention of the Itzbeen.

The Itzbeen is a small portable device that runs on batteries in order to help new parents keep track of their babies needs. There is a handy clip on the back so that it can clip to you wherever you go and a backlight so that it can be used conveniently during the night. There are also different alarm options available and a nursing reminder to help a nursing Mom remember which side she last nursed on. A night light is conveniently built into the Itzbeen in order to help you guide your way during those night time feedings.

It is very obvious that this incredible tool was created by a Mom and Dad who knew exactly how to make life easier as a new parent.

The Itzbeen is a must have for all new parents and would make a very practical yet unique gift!
