About three months ago I purchase a new diaper champ as I was about to have my 2nd child.  I already owned a Diaper Champ and really loved it.  This was a new model and I expected it to be as useful as the original.  I was disappointed.The key benefits of using the diaper champ are:easy disposal of dirty diapersminimal oders between bag changesyou may use any trash bag with the d...

My child recieved this as a 1st birthday gift.  She is approaching 2 years of age and still enjoys playing with this collection.The main train unit comes with 2 animals and a monkey.  There are a few different combinations of animals to chose from at the shop so pick your favorites.  Our collection came with the giraffe, tiger,  and monkey.  A family member ga...

Even though I nursed my 1st daughter I did supplement with formula or bottles of breast milk.  I was given this item as a shower gift and I have used it daily for the past two years.  We have another baby now and we use it all the time.  I don't believe in microwaving babies milk for several reasons.  One is that hot pockets can be created by uneven heating.  Anothe...

I love using natural products whenever possible.  Having young children and suffering from my own allergies, I feel it's an easy way to make small changes that may be helpful to everyone's health.  These products can be purchased at affordable prices in places like Target and the supermarket now-a-days so I like to buy them whenever I can.This particular cleaner smells great.&...

The Mr. Clean Magic Eraser is a great tool for cleaning when your traditional cleaning products don't seem to work.  It seems to work as an extremley mild abrasive to remove dirt from surfaces.  To use it, you simple wet the sponge-like eraser under running tap water, ring it out, and begin gently wiping the surface you intend to clean.  Most recently I've used ...

This play-doh collection is in my opinion the end all be all of play-doh kits.  The first thing that attracted me to it is that the package the kit comes in is a storage case for all the play-doh and accompanying toys.When my child recieved this gift and began playing with it, I loved it even more.  The perimiter of the lid of the box is lined with shape molds to create great objects ...

I bought this monitor because we lost the Sony one we used with my 1st baby.  Overall the monitor serves it's purpose but they are very light and easy to knock over or pull the cord out.The base unit is very light and the rubber feet do little to keep it from being knocked over or off the table with the slightest movement.  When it is knocked over the charging cable also gets knoc...

The Ocean Wonders Bouncer has been a part of my household for two years now.  My first daughter lived in it and my second daughter is doing the same.I think this is a great and comfortable place for newborns and babies to rest safely during the day.  The bouncer comes with a seatbelt which you absolutely must use when the baby gets older because the baby can quite literally bounce rig...

The Aeron Chair from Herman Miller After much research online and sitting in many chairs in shops we decided the best option for our home office was the Aeron Chair by Herman Miller.  Both my husband and I suffer with various aches and pains related to different back issues.  My husband knew he'd be spending many hours in our home office and we felt it was important to have the be...

The Fisher Price plane is a great toy for kids ages 1 and up.  We recently got this for our 2 year old who loves it.  The airplane comes with one piece of luggage, a pilot, and two passengers.  I would have liked it if they had a few more passengers and a few arrivals agents to meet the aircraft upon arrival.The plane plays a cute song when you press the pilot into her seat. ...

I really like the Dirt Devil Broom Vac.  While it doesn't solve all my cleaning problems it comes in handy with quick cleanups of crumby messes.  The vac cannot handle items as heavy as a piece of dog kibble but lifts up most things smaller than that. It's light and easy to use.  It's a good size and easy to tuck away into a closet just like a normal broom.&...

I received a sample sized tube of this product in a gift set and I have to say I am extremely impressed.  I have been using moisturizer for many years and have lately been looking for something to address the early stages of loss of elasticity around my eyes.Over the years I have mostly used Clinique and Chanel products and recently have been using one of Chanel's eye treatments. ...

I had my first baby a few years ago and nursed her for about 6 months.  After that and when we supplemented with a bottle we used Avent bottles.  My baby was cranky and gassy and according to Avent's website, "A clinical trial demonstrated that at 2 weeks of age, babies fed using the AVENT Bottle, experienced less colic than babies fed using a conventional bottle".&...
