Mr. Bobbles Travel Crib Sheets

November 24, 2008

We are devoted users of our travel crib. My son slept in it from his first night at home, in the bassinet insert at the foot of our bed. (Well, ostensibly he slept, but I remember nothing about that because if he was asleep, so was I.) We hauled it from country […]

International Babywearing Week

November 16, 2008

Last year while in DC over the Christmas holidays, we received a lot of comments on how warm and snuggly Oliver looked in his stroller bag.  The stroller bag is a pretty common thing in Germany and the rest of Europe, so I thought I’d introduce you to the company that produces the baby stroller […]
