Since my sister is weeks away from welcoming her first in to the world, I can't help but find myself wondering around Amazon and other sites, looking at all the latest and greatest in the world of "baby stuff".  (You know, since MY little guy is approaching his one year birthday...) I recently came across this list of " Newborn Essentials " -- and it claims to be 10 items "You Probably Didn't Know You Needed" While I think much of this is true, I can't help but wonder, if y'all agree or disagree?  What would you add or take off this list?  :o)  I have SEVEN of these items -- and y'all know I think many baby items aren't essential ! Click here:  10 Essential Newborn Items  and come back and tell me what you think!   "Moses Basket": This item made #10 on the list....  Agree or disagree? Keep on saving!  :o) --Barbara

Perhaps knowing that I would one day have a son, I bough gender-neutral "toddler" pullover bibs when my daughter outgrew her "baby" bibs about two years ago.  ( I opted for the Cookie Monster and Elmo combo, similar to these here .) Fast forward to the present, I have baby boy intent on constantly pulling off his "baby" bibs  (basically any velcro or snap-on bib) .  So a few weeks ago, I decided to try putting him in his sister's old pullover ones.  The problem being, however, those were too long, and resulted in a gaping hole up front, allowing some of most of his food to fall through on to his shirt - thus, defeating the purpose of said bib!  My solution?  I clipped the bib in the back, about an inch away from his neck -- and voila!  No more messes!

Rumor has it, when mixed with happy thoughts, this edible, homemade pixie dust will lift your right off the ground.  ;o) Riding the coattails of our trip to Disney World last month, I decided to create homemade (and edible) "pixie dust" for my daughter. It's an easy thing to add to applesauce, PBJs, sprinkle a little over a plate of fruit -- you name it! The best part? Thanks to my friends at NurturMe , it's got peas and sweet potatoes in it!! Here's what I did. I used 1 package of NurturMe peas and 1 package of NurturMe sweet potatoes , combined with about 2 tablespoons of cinnamon, and 1 small tablespoon of sugar.  Voila!  Edible Pixie Dust.   (Note: you'll need to stir it a little bit before sprinkling on, as it tends to settle after a while.)
