She has seen all her movies except for Breakfast at Tiffany’s , which we continue to think is just a little mature for her. … Though there are scenes of people smoking, most of it is pretty tame, though it is the kind of love story little girls love. She has bought three books on Audrey Hepburn with her own money, very quickly realizing that they all use the same photos and have very little new to say.

Review: HotSlings
Through the next few reviews, I will focus mainly on the ins and outs of various slings – pros and cons from both a parent’s point of view as well as my perceived pros and cons from my child’s point of view.
…A note on picking your size and tip on using the Hotslings should keep you in good stead: it is imperative make sure you buy the correct size, not only for your comfort, but for your child’s safety and avoid overly baggy/loose clothing which may bunch and bundle under the shoulder area if user is not careful. Pros: Contemporary design Keeps baby extra snug Ability to hold baby or toddler a minimum of 3 different ways Cons: Price Slings are so individual – each one and every company has a different feel and style.
Baby Light and Clip – great gadget for fingernail-clipping dads
Baby Light and Clip – Nail Clipper for Babies If you’ve ever struggled to cut a baby’s finger or toenails, you’ll love this little gadget. It’s a very simple little tool that incorporates a basic baby fingernail clipper and a light so you can clip in the dark while they are sleeping. And, if you’ve ever cut down too close and actually cut your baby (yes, it does happen) because baby was struggling, or you couldn’t see, this clipper has finger guard so you can’t push in too deep.
Product review – Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W120
My wife’s camera takes an SD card, which also fits directly into a Palm Treo, so I was hoping to eliminate one memory card and simplify our lives just a tiny bit. … Luckily, a 2 Gig card was enough to get me through about 320 photos and a few small movies with plenty of room to spare, but I was unable to send any email photos home along the way. … I wish they had built a tiny tiny pocket into it to keep an extra memory stick or battery, but otherwise, it’s a very practical addition that I’m sure helped me take more pictures.
Another gadget that amazes but won’t make it into our house
It attaches to any twist open bottle turning a throwaway bottle into a pitcher or watering can…. It’s not as if all the stuff you pour out of a bottle needs a holder with each new bottle.
A gadget only a dad could love – Cuisipro ice cream “scooper”
Yeah, like you really need this, but after tonight’s meal where i was scooping ice cream out of a ice cube-cold vat, I’m thinking maybe, yes, I do…. This product is no longer featured on the Cuisipro site, so it may be on it’s way out, to be replaced by the Cuisipro Ice-Cream Sandwich Maker .
Valentines Day find – romantic candles that won’t set the house on fire
My recommendation is to buy three these and set them up where they will create a glow on the big night. I doubt they would make a good present – she’ll just think you bought another dumb gadget.
A well-done book starring your child
The book also features an optional personalized poly-chenille blanket taht is featured in the story and can also be customized by name, as well as color (pink, blue or green)
Knowing how kids love to hear their names, we were a bit disappointed that the book doesn’t feature the child’s name on every page, but that may have been difficult for cost reasons.
Baby in a bag!
It opens up to provide ample space to let baby lie comfortably, with sides that come up to keep him from moving too far. Without a baby inside, it’s big enough to carry bottles and diapers.
