Categories: Baby, Nursing & Feeding
I never expected to nurse my son for two and a half years. Both my daughters lost interest by around 18 months, and I figured he’d follow suit. But 18 months came and went and he was still interested. Very interested. His first three-word sentence was “Nurse other side!” As time went on, his enthusiasm… read more!

Peg Perego Tatamia High Chair

We’ve got a reputation here for being pretty picky about baby gear, and high chairs are no exception to the rule. For a new high chair to make it into our stores, it needs to be innovative. It’s been a few years since we had a Peg Perego high chair in the mix. When last… read more!

Grass by Boon
Categories: ABC Show 2009, Baby, Nursing & Feeding, Travels & Trade Shows
Count on those imaginative designers at Boon to come up with this clever idea for a countertop drying rack. The blades of grass are both flexible and strong, and as bottles dry, the water drains into the removable tray below. Grass is dishwasher safe and a completely useful conversation starter for any family kitchen. f2m6iqecdj

My mother, within earshot, shrilled “you guess so??” And this was how I learned that I actually come from a long line of breastfeeders.
