Sleepin' in a sack!

My little boy loved to be swaddled as a young, young baby.
Around 8 weeks---he was getting out of his swaddle every night. So I stopped.
I got hooked on these sleep sacks...
I loved the idea of a wearable blanket.
I am sure a long sleeve/footie onesie is just fine too...
but I like the extra layer of theHalo Sleep Sack.
I really like this brand too...the cotton is super soft...
and the sack is nice and roomey!
Another great feature is the weight of the cotton...
light with a touch of weight!
And...they come in fleece for cold months...
we love our fleece one!
The wash great...and best of all...don't shrink!

By the way...diapers.com is having a great sale right now!
Got a Zutano {love this line, another post!} onesie for $12---score!
And....a Halo sack for a steal too!
I ordered one on Sunday---got it yesterday!
{We order our diapers on line....heavenly that they just show up at my door!}
A sleep sack would be a wonderful baby gift for any mama to be!
Happy Sleeping...in a sack! ha!

Diaper Bag or Great Gift Idea!

Dreft's Portable Pretreater pen is an excellent product
to throw in your purse or diaper bag!
We have all been there...you or your child{blow out diaper} gets a nasty stain!
You are hours from being at home...
you need to treat it so the garment is not ruined!
I have found this pen to do the trick!
I keep one in my diaper bag for little mishaps!
I also think this would be a great "little something" to throw in a baby gift!

Baby or Baby Gift?

There is nothing sweeter than a swaddled baby! Aden and Anais swaddle blankets are simply the best swaddle blankets we used!
I could not get enough of these! What I love about these blankets are there weight. They are made out of muslin. Muslin is so great because it is light weight and allows the baby to stay warm, yet not over heat!
And...the more you wash these blankets---the softer they get!

Straight from Aden and Anais:
"The lightweight muslin also permits air to circulate around the baby's body, while still providing comfort and warmth without the worry that the baby may overheat in moderate weather. Cotton muslin is also a workhorse fabric, in that wraps woven from this natural fiber stands up to repeated washings only becoming softer -- and better -- with age."
The website is full of wonderful muslin products!
Some of these are: swaddle blankets, sleep sacks, towels, wash clothes, burpy bibs-these are great{a burp cloth that turns into a bib!}! and dream blankets! Check it out!


Target carries a line of these blankets, sleep sacks and burpy bibs!
The blankets come in packs of 4 for $29.99. They make a super gift for mamas!

Like I said...I love, love, love these blankets!

Got Duck?

Do you need something for those stinky diapers or dirty clothes? Do you need a baby shower gift? Or...do you just want to send a mama friend a "little happy!?" Well, my best friend gave this to me, and it is another baby favorite. Munchkin's Diaper Duck is a diaper bag must!

How many times have you been out shopping, eating, playing at the park, or just anywhere and your child does an infamous BLOW OUT? The kind that requires a new outfit...!? All of us, right!?! Well...these bags are so great because you can throw the stinky, dirty outfit in the lightly scented bag and there you go...you don't have to put a gross, dirty outfit back in the diaper bag!

Another great use of these bags are when you are at someone's house and can't find a trash can because you changed your child in a bedroom-or wherever...but, no trash is in view...use one of these! Oh, and....a wet swimsuit---the list goes on! The bags have a nice, fresh scent---helping when you put a super stinky item in the bag.


Not only do they have the ducks, Munchkin makes a "key chain" like dispenser as well. Great for a dad's diaper bag! (ha!) I have seen these at Target for around $7.00--you have to purchase the replacement bags ($4 for 3 rolls)--but they last a while! You can also find them on Amazon. Your first duck comes with 2 replacement bags rolls. You can them purchase them in sets of three.
Hope this helps! **Now, you could just go the cheap{er} route and buy the fresh, scented replacement bags sans the dispenser....just a thought!**
