Prince Lionheart Wheely

Forgive my absence.  I had to go back to work and I have been so busy.  But now I am back to the mommy and baby blogging business!  I was searching the web this morning and found these adorable little scooters.  I love them.  I have been fantasizing about Jonah's first Christmas and what we should get him and this is on top of my list!  You can find them here.

Zutano

I love, love, love, Zutano clothing for children.  They have a new line just for newborns (the Itzy Bitzy Boutique) that is to die for. I love the owl print.  I wish I discovered them before my son was born because I would have found the perfect take home outfit from the hospital.  The Life of a MOdern Housewife is offering a $75.00 GIft Certificate to Zutano on her blog.  You can enter the contest here.  Good Luck!

Inside a Baby's Head

Here is an interesting article from Slate.com about a book written about what goes on inside a baby's brain.  You can read it here. 

Dairy Free Desert

I have been on a restricted diet lately because of my son's potential allergy to cow's milk.  When I visited my family in Idaho they became very creative with our meals to allow for my new non-dairy diet.  We experimented with coconut "ice cream".  It was actually very tasty and much better than the rice milk or soy milk brands that I have tried.  My sister sent this yummy recipe to me recently.  Be sure to check the chocolate chip package their are some with milk products and some without.  I hope all you vegans (and non-vegans) out there try this out and enjoy it!

Coffee Chocolate Chip Coconut Milk Ice Cream
3c (about 2 cans) canned unsweetened coconut milk
2T instant espresso or instant coffee granules (I used decaf)
6T agave syrup
1tsp vanilla extract
1/2c-3/4c mini-chocolate chips

1) In a medium bowl, mix all ingredients together.
2) Transfer to frozen bowl of ice cream maker and make according to manufacturer’s instructions.
3) After 10 minutes, add mini-chocolate chips, and continue cycle until adequately frozen (about 30 minutes, total).
4) Store in freezer. (Duh, it’s ice cream!) :-)

New DwellStudio Collection

I love DwellStudio's new collection for fall.  My favorite is the owl print which is perfect for a little boy or girls room.  It seems like Dwell is alway on the cutting edge of children's fashion and their new collection is no different.  You can preview their new fall collection here.  

BIg Big Sale

The Children's Place is have a clearance event.  I bought a lot of clothes for my little boy.  I love the Children's Place because they have clothes for boys that don't have a lot of cartoon characters on them.  They are like little man outfits.  You can shop for yourself here.

I can't believe I am going to share this with you, but there is a great baby website out there that discounts one fabulous baby/maternity item each day.  You have to be quick to catch the deal as they usually sell the item out within hours, but the deal is worth it.  All their items are at least 50% off and they have designer items as well as everyday items.  You can find them at Babysteals.com.  Check it out, they  change the item daily at 9 AM mountain standard time.
