Zahara's bottle

Baby Zahara was spotted in Paris, along with Brad Pitt, with a rather hip looking baby bottle. Well at least I think so. Zahara, as you can see, disagreed because she threw it on the ground. Oh well. If you think it's hip like I do, you can pick one up at Sparkability. It's called the Colors Baby Bottle and it's only $9.50. Not too bad, especially since B. Pitty may be looking for another one right now.

New J&J collection coming out at midnight

Janie and Jack are getting a big giant mega-collection for Easter in their stores tomorrow. Usually this means the stuff goes online at midnight, so if you can stay up that late you'll get a sneak peak before the malls do. If you can't, I'll give you one myself as I have seen it in their books (I'm special). Lots of pretty pinks for girls and lots of flowers. The boys' stuff is blue and green, and the new layette is very pretty (looks similar to the bigger kids). In fact I was holding off on buying a baby shower gift until this came in.

Seal's baby wears Robeez

Remember that really wrinkly baby Seal had a few months ago? Well it now seems to have outgrown that stage in its life, as you can see here. Seal was photographed with the baby and his stepdaughter Leni out and about, and look what the baby wore! Robeez! Everyone's favorite slip-on baby shoe, sold almost everywhere. And if you haven't seen their newest booties, just check out their website. Some seriously cute stuff on there.

Giggle opens more stores

What started in San Francisco as the hippest modern baby shop in town, has made its way across county. Giggle has taken New York City. That's right, baby store Giggle just recently opened two stores, one in Soho and one on the Upper East Side. Now New Yorkers can enjoy one-stop modern baby shopping, since Giggle carries just about everything. Their online store rocks too, if you can't get to NYC or the Bay area.

Dream Wish Baby . . . Naturally

"I promise the ocean . . you will hear the beating of it's heart against the shores. I promise the forests . . you will share the whispers of their pines."

These inspiration words from Lisa Humphrey's book, "A Mother's Promise", got me thinking. Like all parents, I am concerned about the safety of children in today's world; and the condition of our planet for our children's children. I had heard of natural baby products . . but wasn't sure if it made a difference. A few google searches later, I became a believer. One thing lead to another, and to another, and so my natural baby venture began. My new site www.DreamWishBaby.com is dedicated to a baby's seventh sense, purity. Join me, in honoring "A Mother's Promise", the spirit within us all.

It's funny how one book can be so inspiring. Now that's a gift of reading! Thank you Lisa (and David Danioth, illustrator, too).

Jacadi's New Crib

Jacadi's 2006 Nursery catalog will be coming out with their Spring/Summer line soon and they've got some pretty neat stuff in there. One of them is the above "see-through" crib. It's not very big, but it's way cool looking. The baby can see out, and you of course can see in at all times. The crib goes with all their crib linens, including the new lines. Avaiable in the spring.

*note* This is a European crib and conforms to their safety standards.

Rod Stewart wears a Whoozit

Rocker and dad can mix well. At least for Rod Stewart it can. Seen here with baby Alastair, Rod is shown wearing his son's toy Whoozit as a pants accessory. Quite a step down from Versace belts. Rod and wife Penny were out shopping when the press snapped up these pictures, which can be seen on German tv station RTL's website. They've got all kinds of photos, including one of Rod and Penny with their blue and yellow Bugaboo Cameleon.

Rod is also pictured carrying the baby in a Graco Snugride. The other toy shown is from Lamaze, but I don't think it's sold anymore. They've replaced it with a different Octopus toy.

*Edit* Greg at Daddytypes is right. He is kind of daring you to look at his crotch.
