Gap is to Old Navy as Gymboree is to …

October 22, 2007

If you already know the answer to this analogy, then pardon my ignorance, but for the rest of you, the answer is: Crazy 8. I just learned this. Yes, Gymboree has launched a cheaper, hipper brand and my husband just told me about it as he unpacked some clothing for our kids he had bought [...]

Attention lovers of screenprinted clothing

October 2, 2007

Fooey sale alert! Friends, this stuff is totally cute and at reasonable prices you don’t typically see at indie boutiques. In fact, the homepage promises that nothing’s over fifteen dollars. This awesome octopus-playing-instruments tshirt is ten bucks. As a mom of a boy, I am so over the truck-train-sports-themed-dog appliqued clothing. Bring on the creative [...]

Replate

July 13, 2007

You may already be an activist. What do you do when you can only finish half your sandwich? If you’re among the many that put it gently back in its paper bag and place it on top of a garbage can hoping that the someone hungry and needy will know to pick it up before [...]

Light Iris for light-weight searchers

June 1, 2007

Light Iris is a recently launched search engine for new moms. Before it launched, when all we could see was the blog of the founder, we were intrigued because he is a man wearing a pregnancy belly in order to gain empathy for pregnant women. He has kids already, so he and Whitney were in [...]

How to work at home while your kids are wee

May 25, 2007

I’m struggling with this myself. Is it possible to earn a little money from home while I’m being mom at the same time? Holden has childcare in our home weekdays until 2pm. Milo has me for childcare 24/7. And that childcare costs $$ so I’m looking around for little extra sompn-sompn (something something, is that [...]

April 6, 2007

When I clicked on LollipopKisses.com, I was pleasantly surprised to see a color palette that is vibrant and fun, as opposed to the typical subdued blues and pinks of many baby shops.

If you don’t know MetroDad, get to know him. Also, if you are a hip Asian-American daddy, like my third-favorite ex-boyfriend, [...]

Online baby superstore — super indeed

March 20, 2007

While I am more often a sucker for a beautifully designed web site that merchandises unique and small brand clothes, I am also a sucker for selection. At BabyAge.com, there is no shortage of selection. For example, 18 tandem double strollers and 11 double jogging strollers to choose from. And that makes me happy. BabyAge [...]
