Email This Article Have baby...will travel
I am loving my Beco Baby Carrier...trekking around on vacation with a baby has never been easier! My sweet baby loves to be held, but I just can't do it all day! The Beco allows me to carry her around on my back and it is a lifesaver because she is happy and I am comfortable. Best of all, Daddy likes to use it too!
Email This Article Biome 5

Talk about a fun product and site...those reading this week's issue will notice Biome 5 in our favorite tee's issue. My daughter loves the sounds on the site and the tees are comfy and soft and cute as well. Plus the company is very environmentally friendly, which is always a plus in my book...their tees are made of organic cotton, made in the USA (hooray) and ship your tee to you in biodegradable gift bags.
Email This Article Paper Locket Cards
I had these beautiful thank you cards made by Paper Locket and I can't say enough about them! They also sent along some samples of their invitations, cards and announcements and all of their paper goods were simply stunning. Out of all the announcements I have seen, the quality is fantastic...I would say my favorite customized card company. They do have new designs coming so that you can announce your child's birthday with these beautiful cards as well as create gorgeous thank you cards. In the meantime, you can choose one of their current designs and have them customize to the type of card you need (think thank you cards). How lovely it is to not only receive a thank you card (which is quite rare these days), but to receive one personalized with your family's photo is even lovelier.
Email This Article Beautiful baby shoes by Rheba James
My 5 month old (I cant believe she is 5 months old already!) has a shelf full of shoes, but Rheba James' booties are my favorite. She wears a pair of these booties almost every day when we are out and everyone comments on how beautiful they are. These booties are not only beautiful but are so soft. Available in 0-3 months and 3-6 months at RhebaJames.com.

If you are looking to create a gift that will be treasured for years by both the child and parents, this is the gift! At only $32.95 you can purchase them for every special child in your life.
Email This Article Bella B Natural Bodycare
I love Bella B products! Two years after my first daughter I discovered the line and began using their Tummy Honey Stretch Mark Fading Cream. I saw a difference is my skin within a few weeks...it was softer and the stretch marks became smaller. Now during my second pregnancy I used their prevention butter and prevention stick. For those really itchy moments, nothing worked like the stick! It is a bit greasy, but I would use it at night prior to getting into my pj's. The thick cream then dissolves into your skin and leaves it as soft as a baby's butt.
Now that I am nursing their Nipple Nurture line is a godsend. Their nipple cleansing pads are perfect for safe cleaning after feedings or at night and in the morning. During those first weeks of soreness their Nipple Nurture Butter was my favorite of all nipple creams.
Shop their entire line at MaternalYouth.com.
Email This Article I LOVE Sara Blakely
Okay ladies...I know you may have heard of Spanx, but if you havent tried them yet, you really are missing out on the greatest invention ever (minus the 'essentials' like the automobile, disposable diapers and the like). As a mom to a 5 1/2 year old and a brand spanking new baby (just 11 weeks old!) it has definitely been harder to loose any weight at all with my second one. So my tummy is looking a wee bit pregnant still (I would call it about a 4 month preggo bump) and we had to go to a Halloween costume party this past weekend. In order to hide my 'bump' I tried out Spanx...and I will admit, I sprung for the cheaper Target (Assests) version. Wow! is all I can say...I looked like my pre-preggo self! I am now so in love that I bought three pair and plan on wearing them all the time. They are so comfortable, I swear! Just $20 at Target.com for the Assets line or you can spring for the original Spanx version for just $34. Now I dont want to sound too dramatic, but feeling good about your body can make your days be a little brighter...and Spanx may just change your (fashion) life! A great big thank you to Sara Blakely (inventor of Spanx)...you are a new mom's best friend!
