Columbia Teraval Boot

I’m a relative newbie to living in a place that snows.  Seeing that I lived in Phoenix, Arizona for over 30 years, I knew very little about snow boots and was a little overwhelmed when realizing that I needed a pair.  After a little shopping online and then hitting up my local Columbia Sportswear outlet, [...]

Toddler Jumpsuit Monkey Costume

Last Halloween my son picked out this adorable monkey costume at Target. This Toddler Jumpsuit Monkey costume kept my 2 year old warm and comfy while trick-or-treating on a chilly fall Oregon evening. It survived running, tripping, rolling and more than one toddler tantrum on the grass.  Yay for durability!
I’ve also been thrilled [...]

H2O Boggan Sled

My son is getting a sled from Santa for Christmas this year.  Shhh!  Don’t tell him!  Anyhow, I picked up this H2O Boggan Sled through ToysRUs.com and it seems like a pretty cool sled.

This awesome [...]

Nick & Nora Sock Puppet Pajamas

After a recent growth spurt, I found that my son had outgrown all of his pajamas. Luckily I found these adorable Nick & Nora Sock Puppet Pajamas.

This two-piece pajama set is too cute, featuring sock puppets playing guitars and drums. They aren’t the super-snug fitting type of pajamas that drive my son crazy, [...]

InStep Rocket Bike Trailer

What better way is there to spend a warm summer morning than taking a bike ride with your child? I recently purchased the InStep Rocket Bike Trailer to tote around my precocious toddler and I have to say, this was money well spent.

This trailer is great because it holds 2 children, up to 50 [...]
