Pajama Pants! I love summer. I love the warm weather, frozen drinks, and letting the kids run around in the sprinkler. But…. even I can admit, there’s nothing better than putting on a comfy pair of pj pants at the end of the day. Or, if we’re going to be honest about it, they’re great for lounging in night and day. I found these adorable Nick and Nora Owl Pants at Target. Not only are they super soft, but Graham hoots every time I walk into the room.


Desitin Diaper Cream. When a diaper rash is bad, it’s bad. I’m sure it must be horribly uncomfortable for baby, and the crying is horribly uncomfortable for everyone else. My first kid wasn’t prone to diaper rash, so with #2 I did some asking around. Every mom “in the know” recommended Desitin, and surprise, surprise, it worked. Quickly too.




Bob Books. I love the Bob Stroller. Thought I’d try the book version. Totally unrelated, by the way. This is another discovery I fell upon thanks to the recommendation of my savvy mom-friends. It’s all who you know. Well thanks to them, my son now can read M-A-T, S-A-M, and C-A-T. Not bad for a three-year-old after two days of practice. The books come in sets of 12 and are available on Amazon.com. No need to push a kid to read, but if you have a eager-learner like mine, why not?
Got any other recommendations? I always appreciate a good tip!
