These days, the baby monitors available to parents are a huge departure from the scratchy audio monitors from the newborn days of yore (i.e. my first child). This year's CES conference served as an exciting stage for the types of innovat…

Juggling your stroller and your phone is quite a feat, but add in the cold, wintry weather, and you might just have to wait until you're walking through a store or safely parked at home to send that text. Well, that's where the Stroll & …

It's officially winter, as Jonas has let us know oh-so-subtly this past weekend. And since everyone in my house also has some form of a winter cold, I'm officially over the germs that go along with the cold weather. So while we're stuck …

As we're seeing at CES this past week week, pretty much everything in our homes is going "smart" these days, and your baby's changing table is no exception. The Hatch Baby smart changing pad isn't just a soft place for your baby to lay w…

If your house is anything like mine, then a night light is as much of a bedtime essential as your kid's blankie and cup of water. So, I'm not sure why purchasing one has always been an afterthought for me! Well, now that I'm settling int…

I like to think of myself as a pretty relaxed mom so I haven't really considered all those wearable baby monitors on the market right now. Let's just say I have been known to let the baby sleep in her wet diaper all night long or staying…

I invested in an air purifier years ago--a big, huge machine that was noisy and ugly, but sure did work to remove the dust and pollen from the air that makes us so sneezy around here. It never made it to our current home, so I, for one, …

When I saw the Baby Brezza Formula Pro on Cool Mom Picks awhile back, I wished that the Keurig-like formula maker had been around when my littles were still hitting the bottle. And clearly so do thousands of you! Well, now it's available…

We have covered more than our fair share of awesome diaper bags at Cool Mom Picks and laptop cases right here, but a bag that does double duty may be a first. The Courage Backpack from TWELVElittle has room for all of the baby stuff you …
