Whiny Wednesday: Green Toys

Whiny Wednesday: Sleepy TimeI'm afraid it's the last Whiny Wednesday before fashion week mayhem (ok, we've already entered that mess, but next Wed. I'll be IN it...literally...in New York!). So...let's mellow out for a moment, shall we? I recently discovered this line, hellomellow and couldn't resist sharing it with...

Whiny Wednesday: Chic Sneaks I know it's been quite awhile since Whiny Wednesdays has made an appearance, but this chic mama's been busy, busy with a lil' thing called fashion week. You know how we always say to take some time to ourselves, right? I did. I had fun and now I'm back to being an everyday stay-at-home...

Whiny Wednesday: Healthy Stuff Just because it says it's made for baby or "green" does not make it so. I could care less about the container it's in being recyclable if it's going to break out my baby...and so it goes on for toys... Little by little, by the time little C was one, I literally fazed out (alllllmost) every...

Whiny Wednesday: Jennifer Fisher JewelryHappy Wednesday, chic mamas! I've discovered a jewelry line for which you're all gonna hate me. Jennifer Fisher Jewelry. It's ridiculously chic (I mean irresistibly charming!), but it's not gonna be easy on the wallet (well if you choose all of my favs, that is). Le sigh...I told you....

Whiny Wednesday: Cool Toys for BoysLet's be honest here, b locks are probably littl e C's fav toy of all tim e. So how to reinvent this fav? A set of TEGU blo cks, please. I absolutely cannot wait to give these to little C. for Christmas this year. I've always wanted h im to try them (since they're...

Whiny Wednesday: We're Losing Our MarblesI must admit, this is certainly one of the prettiest toys I've seen in awhile! Ya know, with a boy you take what you can get...we have a blue ball, a green ball, a red ball...you get the point. So when PlanToys offered to send me the Marble Run - Deluxe, I happily obliged. After all, sports...

Whiny Wednesday: A Do-Good Necklace Besides loving the gorgeous green hue (it's my fav color, and did you know it symbolizes hope and growth?) and the chic pyramid design, this limited-edition stunner was designed by creative director Nicole Richie to benefit Baby2Baby. In case you aren't familiar, it's a charity that...

Whiny Wednesday: Tea CollectionHappy Whiny Wednesday! I'm writing this from the quietness of my home because - yep - little C. has gone to visit the grandparents and I finally get some peace and quiet. Ahhhh....ok, I'm ready for him to come back now, sob. Isn't it funny how you don't want them to go once they actually do?...

Whiny Wednesday: GIVEAWAY! Boon Bath Tub Appliques These "designer bath toys" come in three fun sets: Dive, Trap and Trace. little C. loooooves his Dive set (shown above) because he really loves animals, especially sea creatures! You get them wet and they stick to the side of the bath tub. What's even cooler is they won't mildew and they're...

Whiny Wednesday: A to Z, The Alphabet Abacus) This toy is recommended for 18-24 months, so it's right at little C.'s current learning level and it's great for developing his motor skills. Now, if only he would stop trying to drag it on and off the couch... P.S. little C. is changing every day - you just wouldn't believe it! His fav...

Whiny Wednesday: Wean Green99 for a 2-pack) by Wean Green, I squealed! They comes in several colors, but orange is his absolute fav color right now, so I was so excited to show him (and it makes him more likely to play along with this game we call "eating."). These are the lunch-size containers (which, since he's not...

Whiny Wednesday: little C.'s New EssentialsHappy Wednesday, y'all! I'm writing this Tuesday night as little C. is giving his daddy fits over sleeping...it's been an hour and a half now. Oh, the lovely world of teething (he's getting several molars)! (er, not to mention, he's never liked sleeping...) Let's see, what else. He's clearly...

Whiny Wednesday: Moon Dough Madness)! It comes in tons of colors (pink, blue and green, just to name a few), but of course, little C. felt the need to just mix them all right in there together! So, now our Moon Dough is a "rainbow" shade and it makes for quite pretty bunny rabbits and cars and carrots (you make them from the...

Whiny Wednesday: EzyRoller Time This will probably be the last Whiny Wednesday for a coup le of weeks, so I hope you all have an amazing holiday break with your families. And, as always, hug those little ones tight. Of course, now we realize more than ever.

Whiny Wednesday: eco kids ~ I Heart Heels's fav "toys" of all right now is by far his new "eco-dough" from eco-kids. He. LOVES. it. I had been waiting to introduce his little fingers to it until after he turned two when there would be less of a chance of him becoming so curious with it. I want him to play with it, not eat it, ya...

Whiny Wednesday: Easy Canvas Prints But, I will tell you that once we got home and he started playing with his toys (for which he realllllly missed), I snapped an amazing photo of him. You know it's my policy to never show little C. on here (so it pains me I can't show you my awesome pic), but I will tell you what happened...

Whiny Wednesday: Happy Holidays this past week, opening gifts and playing with toys from Santa. Yep, Santa brought him the coolest rocket scooter ev-er and a musical table (he'll learn the piano if I have anything to do with it!). Of course, I had to get him all dressed up to go to grandma's house, and he wore this Le Top...

Whiny Wednesday: Green BabiesIt's another Whiny Wednesday, but it should've been a Whiny Tuesday this week.
