The new spring designs just arrived yesterday from Babylegs. They always make the best fresh styles, you can tell why people never pick just one!

They are $12 each, $36 for the set of 3

We marked two on clearance, not shown above. The Cabana Stripes gift set to $25 and a special soft wool at $15

Funny, I never did blog about the arrival of our Pedoodles brand boots for babies and early walkers!
They come in three colors- pink, green, and blue/grey.
They come in three sizes- 0-6 months 6-12 months and 12-18 months

These Pedoodles boots are entirely lined inside with faux lambswool and they are incredibly easy to put on becuase they open really wide with velcro entirely down one side. The outside is top quality leather suede and a rubber sole. You can see in the photo how flexible the soles are, that is really important for a baby’s developing feet.

This Beco carrier is officially called “‘Pony Express” but everybody calls it “cow print”. It is a limited edition as Beco does every winter, I believe giraffe was last year. You can almost see in the photo the special fuzzy texture, and you can really see why this one is an instant hit!

We began shipping them earlier this week, and when the fabric runs out, they will not make any more. $129, shipping daily.

Our new gift card order just arrived from the printing shop! These cards are ready for any amount of store credit, with plenty of time to be mailed for holiday gifts. I especially love the fresh design printed on really nice cards, I really didn’t know they’d turn out so well! wow!

Now, this fascinating little product is a must-have for your diaper bag, purse, or backpack. It’s called “momspit!” did you catch that? It’s in our health and comfort section, the tagline is “inspired by the original”… do you get it now? mom spit.

It’s a newly invented cleanser for dirty little hands and faces. Mom Spit is free of alcohol and antibacterials and gel, it’s just a nice foam that wipes away any grime and doesn’t need to be rinsed off. The small bottle is perfect to travel anywhere where a sink and fresh water won’t be handy. It comes in “fig and green tea”, “lemon and white tea”, or unscented, and at just $9 it makes a great add-on with any other baby gift. It is small and light to go in your purse and yet it will give about 170 full pumps of use!

These are by miYim toys, made totally of organic cotton. The wide knit and natural colors made these cuddly friends unique, soft, and lovable. A perfect gift!

We found them at the ABC trade show and I’m glad to say they are finally up for sale in the toy category!

We just brought in two of Zolowear’s top selling slings- Jetson and Solstice!

Both are cool 97% cotton/3% stretch sateen/100% fabulous! Hugs your baby and your body comfortably.

Jetson is our only Zolowear sling also available in pouch form, and it has a sister print for ring slings, called Judy.

Two gorgeous new arrivals here- Berry and Stone Zolowear slings, both just now added to Zolo’s sustainably grown cotton line. That means earth-friendly 100% organic cotton twill that comes from sustainable farming methods. The jewel-toned Berry looks and feels smooth and luscious. Well, the Stone feels that way too, but with a more gender-neutral color. Both have black sling rings and the strong zipper pocket.

The newcomers join the hemp/cotton Sable Brown sling so we now carry all three of Zolowear’s organic solid slings.

This morning our first shipment came of a newly launched product, the Pikkolo carrier by CatBird Baby!

It’s an innovative carrier for front, back, or side carries with lots of mainstream user appeal and great colors (I love the Appletini pikkolo carrier best).

Like a Bjorn, this carrier works for infants facing inwards and soon lets them face out to the world. but like the Beco or Ergo, it’s built to support the growing weight of a 6, 12, or 18 month old in the front positions, and like the Beco or Ergo, once baby is sitting up (5 or 6 months old) you can use it for a back carry. So you get a lot more value from your purchase!

Action shots coming soon.

How many words are there for stunning? Breathtaking. Amazing. To die for.

I know you can see the dupioni silk, woven by hand exclusively for their company. maybe if you click for larger images, you could glimpse the exquisite detail. We also have 2 selections from their line of finest Belgian linen slings. All are handcrafted and reversible. The colors are amazing. The feel of the fabric, I couldn’t even describe. And yes, it’s machine washable, yes they withstand the messes and assaults of daily life.

Let me tell you, I’ve been using slings for almost exactly 5 years now.

I know my baby carriers, I know what’s out there, the good and the bad, the easy and the complicated. These slings are a DREAM to use.

Whether you’re buying for yourself or as a gift, I know you won’t be disappointed. I am thrilled to be carrying them. We’re starting with 6 colors and will continue building it up. Let’s see how long I can keep from taking one for myself!
