Stella at Lennah Designs (‘jewelry for today’s mama’) contacted me to introduce herself and her company (nursing necklaces) one day.  Then she sent me a gorgeous necklace to try.  I haven’t ever tried a nursing necklace before now, even though I’ve nursed three babes (still am).  I guess I just got used to the pinching, grabbing [...]

Did you know that you can post your baby’s stats, photos and memories online?  This is perfect if you’re not into paper, scrapbooking and especially if your family is not in the city.  This way you can share current photos and journalling with your family faraway. 
I must admit, shamefully, that I haven’t even begun Ivy’s first year scrapbook/babybook [...]

My girlfriend and I first discovered d’Lish when we were taking our little guys for a stroll around 124th Street one afternoon.  When we stepped inside we were greeted by an incredibly friendly man named Mike, who was happy to tell us all about their philosophy:

babysitter woes

It seems impossible.  To leave your baby for any length of time, or at least it does for me.  With a stranger no less.  Ack.  If you have several children, it feels like this massive chore to find someone, gain trust, explain the evening’s routine and then just LEAVE them there. with your children. in [...]

the first birthday

Being more than a bit of a foodie, I have a long-standing love affair going with The Italian Centre.  For years it has been my destination for incredible ingredients, specialty foods and the freshest of produce, bread, olives, cheese, meat….oh the list goes on (and did I mention that I have regular cravings for their [...]
