For the littlest nerdlings
Before I had kids I never understood the whole ribbon tag trend. It seemed like all these regular old baby toys were suddenly reinvented with little ribbon tags sewn on everything.

Feeding my cloth diaper hankering
Ok, you can count me among the obsessed. If I wasnt a hippie, I would probably cloth diaper just for the fact that disposables don’t come in Skull print.

Zbelle’s insanely cute brimmed beanies
I begged Etsy seller Zbelle to let me try out one of her brimmed beanies and ZOMG. The cuteness! I’m a huge fan of the brimmed beanies for myself and while I don’t want to get all matchy-matchy with my kid, I can’t help but want to dress him in some of my favorite styles. […]
