How to Baby Proof Your Home

By | | , ,

This post is dedicated to my dear friend, Duckie! Baby proofing your home is often done in two stages: You “proof” what you think needs to be done in order to keep your baby safe. You realize that your baby is much more adventurous than you ever had imagined and you play catch up with their every move! I recently received a baby update email from one of my dear friends. I absolutely love to receive these emails, for a few reasons: They let me live through the eyes of a new Mommy vicariously – oh how I love babies! … Continue reading →

No More Chaffed Skin with ChafeStop™ from @ILoveLoveys

UPDATE:Recently, ChafeGuard™ had a name change to ChafeStop™! It can be found on amazon.ca, amazon.com, shop.ca, www.abesmarket.com and www.ethicalocean.com. With the dry, cold weather in the winter, our skin can become extra dry, itchy and uncomfortable. I was surprised to notice that one day a few weeks ago, my son’s inner thighs were completely chaffed. They looked so red, raw and painful and it developed literally during one school day. My heart hurt for the discomfort that he was experiencing. We started to treat it with various bath soaks, lotions and creams, including diaper cream, but nothing was fully working. … Continue reading →

Baby Sleep Solution: The @ZipadeeZip

This review has been written by Alison, a new Mom! From day one, which was 4 months ago (September 6th to be exact), our daughter HAD to be swaddled in order for her to have a sound sleep. We started with the hospital blanket, moved to the swaddle sacs (basically swaddling done for you with Velcro – less wrestling with technique), then finally graduated to large hand-made flannel blankets when our LO grew out of the others (she’s 16.5 lbs now). Eventually, she began to break out of the swaddle which disrupted her sleep not to mention ours! One morning … Continue reading →

When my kids were little and we carted around our food booster seat wherever we went, I also brought a towel with me in case we had to put their feeding chair on a NICE dining room chair. My kids were (and still are) messy eaters and I never wanted to be responsible for ruining someone’s beautiful dining room chairs! My Mom always has a large towel put out on all of the chairs that my children eat on when we go to visit in order to contain their messes so that they do not ruin her nice dining room … Continue reading →
