Spill it, papa

June 3, 2007

Now daddies can share their secrets with each other — and, anonymously, with us too. Check out TrueDadConfessions.com. Shocking and hard to turn away from.

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 [...]

My fling with Cozi

April 18, 2007

It’s fun to sit in my pajamas (alone) and watch my Cozi collage flash by the screen. What’s not fun is to stand with my husband with beads of sweat collecting on my forehead that moment I first realized that this slideshow is made up exclusively of pictures before-Alec… only ex-boyfriends, old trips, and single [...]

True Mom Confessions

April 11, 2007

I just discovered this web site, a place for you to browse other mommy’s secrets. Ideally you will feel less alone when you read that others have done or thought what you’ve done or thought. You might just feel like the world is going to hell in a handbasket and that our generation of moms [...]

Colors I actually like

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. A couple of my favorite items: This placemat is $4.00 and I know my son would love to have these vehicles sitting in [...]

Link Love: MetroDad

April 5, 2007

This blogger New Yorker has a kid exactly the same age as my little dude. I can tell we are going through the same things from his most excellent Open Letter To All Toddlers. 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 [...]

Good-looking maternity clothes? Forget the mall.

February 14, 2007

While my mom and I did have a successful shopping trip this weekend, I must confess that I become irate as soon as I start interacting with the sales people at Mimi Maternity. But that’s a rant for another day. Let’s stay positive, people. Positively pregnant. If that’s possible. What I have trouble finding is [...]
