This week my toddler, Mr. Parker, has been digging on his new BPA free feeding gear from ThinkBaby. It is a complete stainless steel feeding system encased in safe plastic (polypropylene). It contains a baby bowl with lid, a soup bowl with lid, a bento box with air tight lid, a cup, a fork, and a spoon. They are free of BPA, PVC, phthalates, lead, and melamine.

March is National Reading Month and to celebrate LeapFrog has started a campaign to get parents … [Read more...]
Frugal Luxuries and Simple Living
"We are lovers of beauty without extravagance" - Thucydides I read this amazingly simple and heartwarming quote from a book this weekend. The book is Frugal Luxuries - Simple Pleasures to Enhance Your Life and Comfort Your Soul by Tracey McBride and I really, really, really, can't say enough good things about it.
