Ketchup Popsicles

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2012

It’s starting to look a lot like spring here lately, and Ellie is now obsessed with being outside… so naturally, I’ve been itching to buy her some yard toys. Slides, climbing cubes, etc (you know, Step 2 & Little Tykes stuff) - but brand new those things are ridiculously expensive! I recently told Adam I’d been searching [...]

SuperAdvice: Don’t Be An iBoob

Sunday, March 4th, 2012

Friends, do I have another Superwife lesson for you… It’s possible that you may have a young toddler who loves technology as much as Superbaby does. Have you ever let your child play with your iPhone or iPad? Does it buy you a few minutes every now and then – to set your kiddo up [...]

Pop go the Cheerios

Sunday, January 15th, 2012

This toy… seems harmless enough, yes? When the red button is pushed, it blows a gentle flow of air that “pops” bright colored plastic balls out of the trunk with barely any pressure at all.

Sweet Baby Art

Thursday, September 22nd, 2011

Have you been looking for a simple and safe way to get your kiddos involved in art projects? My sister Jess and I picked up a few canvases on sale at Micheals recently and decided to let the girls (Ellie & Emma, 11 months and 9 months) finger-paint… so we mixed Cool Whip and food coloring for a bright [...]

Paciplay Review and Giveaway

Monday, May 16th, 2011

Last week Ellie and I were lucky enough to try out a cool new product that I’ve been eyeing online: the PaciPlay by Toes For Eyes. It’s a pacifier clip that’s also a teether – choice! I’m a huge fan of pacifier clips these days, as Ellie loves chucking things (I see softball in her [...]
