Alright, here’s another reason to have a baby if you’ve been thinking about one. Practical diaper bags that double up as glamorous shoulder bags. Just look at these! No one would even guess they contain diapers, bottles and changing mats 
.

This genuine leather diaper bag doubles as a great purse! How cool is that? With 12 pockets to help you stay organized, you’ve finally got room for everything from wipes to bottles to cell phone all in one handy bag with detachable shoulder straps. You’ve even got a zippered pouch for your changing mat.

And just look at this chic styling constructed of nylon and faux leather with pleated detailing. The straps are adjustable and with 5 interior pockets and 2 side bottle pockets, you’ll be have room for everything. There’s even a handy clip for your keys or pacifier purse! I love the clean, uncluttered design with no straps or ties sticking out that kids can grab.
Baby Kaed Boutique Diaper Bags – Avi U Rust Cream

The single button closure on the external pockets allow you to open them with one hand and once buttoned, keep things from falling out. A really neat feature is it’s got 5 brass feet to protect the base of the bag.
Steev was a big baby and a late walker. He only started cruising at around 14 months so you can imagine what it was like taking him to the mall. Our little sumo wrestler hated sitting in the stroller so I had to carry him on my hip. Even when Hip2bDad and I took turns, we came close to killing our backs and could only struggle short distances before we started huffing and puffing.
So we got a baby carrier like this Kelty Baby Carrier to carry him around. This helped to distribute the weight and make it a lot less tiring. It’s probably one of the best things we ever bought.
I can’t remember what brand we bought but Kelty baby carriers are JPMA certified and padded for comfort. You can have the child facing in or out. This one has a 25 pound weight limit. You want to be mindful of the weight limits so you choose one that fits your baby.
You can find this and a whole selection of baby carriers online at eBags and save 10% off plus enjoy free shipping on purchases over $50.
When my kids were babies, either organic baby stuff didn’t exist or I didn’t know they existed. I used cloth wraps and now they have these cool Bamboo Baby cable knits.

I wish I’d kept a book of my children’s developmental milestones and our parenting spills and thrills over the years. But at the time, I was so busy working that it was hard to keep up with recording of all these precious memories. Now of course, I wish I’d at least scribbled down those dates and milestones and interesting events somewhere.
I know of lots of new parents who are going out of their way to track those memories. They’re noting down even the smallest things in The New Parents Book of Firsts, a keepsake book for new parents, not just their babies — because by golly, Mom and Dad accomplish something new every day too. It would be great to have the photo of me analyzing poo, for instance, or of the first time in years I went on a girls’ night out.
Sometimes it’s not easy to find the perfect gift for a hip mom-to-be but hey, this is a great start.
I remember having a few eyelet dresses when I was a kid. I guess that’s when my love for eyelets started 
. Eyelet dresses not only look very pretty on toddlers and little girls, they’re very cooling and not very expensive at all.
All of the eyelet dresses below cost between $18 to $23, and yet they’re comfortable, sweet and come with matching head gear.
This tiered Little Bitty Spring Green Eyelet Swing Dress is defined by white lace and a crochet flower embellishment with an adorable matching headband.
This Little Bitty Pink Eyelet Sun Dress comes with a matching hat.
I love the butterfly cut work on this Little Bitty White Eyelet and Pink Pant Infant Capri Set with the little pink applique flowers and matching hat.
One of the biggest joys of being a mom of girls is getting to dress them up like little princesses. These eyelet dresses are great for daily wear or as gifts. You can check them out at TinyTotDressShop.com.
