VedaPure

VedaPure and it's lines, VedaBaby, VedaMama, and VedaDude are the creation of Natalie Geary, MD, who's goal is to bring you the most safe and effective skincare for your whole family!


VedaPure offers products for your little one that will freshen, soothe, cool, calm, heal and more. Noel received the Soothe, Cool, and Butt Plus. The Soothe is so silky! I couldn't believe how soft his skin felt afterward! The VedaCool was nice after a hot afternoon at the park, and the Butt Plus is, without a doubt, the best diaper cream I have used to date.

VedaMama has products to make you purified, nurtured, and even scrumptious! This mama received the Supple, which will hopefully save my tummy from stretch marks during this pregnancy. I was also invited to try Purify, which smells amazing and feels so refreshing.

The best thing about VedaPure is that you need not worry about using something on yourself or your child that has anything but all natural-ingredients. I would be in heaven if I could afford to exclusively buy VedaPure!

These Slings Rock!


Neither Amy or I have had much experience with slings until now. We've been intrigued by them since Stephanie the Babywearer came into our blogging lives. I never really "got" slings, but since I've been reading up on them, I've really wanted to try one out. Well, we got the chance, thanks to Rockin' Baby Shop! Not only did we get the chance to try out slings, but we got some of the COOLEST ones on the market! The sling pictured here with Noel and I is the Strawberry Fields Forever Ring Sling. This sling absolutely exudes my personality! It's a cool 60s flower pattern and it just rocks. I love how comfortable it is too! Amy received the Ziggy Stardust Pouch(fellow Bowie fans!), that she will review soon-along with a contest for a Rockin' Baby Car Seat Cover!

I had no idea that slings could be the answer to all of our traveling outside the house issues. Now, my son is very well behaved, but we can not make it to more than 2 places while running errands before he wants to run around or be held. The first time we went out with the sling, I was able to take him to three different places with nary a fuss! I was amazed. He never tried to get out, never wanted down, and never whined. It was also lovely to carry him without him getting heavy without my back hurting. In a word, my sling is incredible! I never go anywhere without it now! I'm also excited to try the sling out with my new baby, due February! I plan on wearing this one from day one!

Rockin' Baby Slings are all named after songs or rockstars-a company after my own heart! They also have cool clothes for your rockin' girl or boy and lots of rockin' goodies! Each month, the ladies of Rockin' Baby Shop donate 3% of their proceeds to their favorite charities. Lisa and Natasha, the owners and geniuses behind the slings, are doing good deeds and helping moms and dads be close to their little ones! All right, ladies!

If you're in the market for an outfit that will make your kid the star of the sandbox, or looking for a sling that's gorgeous, durable, and well...rockin', you need not look any further than Rockin' Baby Shop!

Hand Picked Pumpkin!

Fashionable clothes do not always equate to comfortable clothes, especially for the littler guys. They are exploring on the floor, and learning to walk, and while we want them to look cute, they also need to have the ability to move around without limitations that I often find with pants and jeans. That is why I am so glad to have discovered Hand Picked Pumpkin! Allison put together her love for unique style hand in hand with this concept, and this amazing children's clothing line was born!


Here, Noel is sporting his Grady Overall Shorts. This is a perfect summer outfit! It's comfortable, lightweight, and absolutely adorable. This is one of Allison's ready-made creations, but you can also custom design ANYTHING in her shop! Whether you're looking for a signature outfit, comfy bottoms, a gift set for a friend, you're bound to find something perfect! There are great patterns and colors to choose from, especially if your heart belongs in the 50s and 60s! Polka dots and stripes are the name of the game at Hand Picked Pumpkin, where you'll find many satisfied customers!

Allison also proudly donates 5% of her end of year profits to several fine charities, and if you have one that's close to your heart, you can email her to nominate your organization!

To learn more about Hand Picked Pumpkin and to see what they've got going on, be sure to sign up for their newsletter. Now, head over there and make a unique outfit for your kiddo!

Baby Dagny - Half Off Seat Chillers!


I've had my eye on one of these for a while now and with the sweltering Chicago heat and a toddler who lets me know it's "hot" when I put her in her car seat, it's about due time that I pick up a Seat Chiller. I was happy to find out that Baby Dagny's Seat Chiller's are HALF OFF (reg. price $40) right now while supplies last!

Drea has reviewed one over at her site and I plan on throwing out my own two cents about them after we've tested it.

Also, don't forget that Baby Dagny has weekly photo contests. If your baby's photo is chosen, they give you a $20 gift certificate to their eBoutique. Not a bad deal at all!

Promise if you go and purchase one that you tell them that "MumsTheWurd sent ya". : )

Who knew cubes could be this much fun?



We would like to introduce to you...Dado Cubes!

I'm taking this straight from Fat Brain Toy Company's site because I couldn't say it better myself:

"A specialty toy that's as BEAUTIFUL as it is EDUCATIONAL...Dado™ combines art and science as kids of all ages explore architectural principles...proportion, balance, structure, composition, and color. A contemporary twist on classic stacking blocks, Dado™ engages the imagination as the slits on each cube are interlocked to create an unlimited number of three-dimensional structures. Constructed horizontally, vertically or nested together, Dado™ invites visual spatial development and problem solving through design-centered, attention-grabbing fun!"

It was a tough decision, because you all have the coolest kids in town, but we had to pick one...and the winner is...
ROO!

Roo is a super cool rockin' tot...not only is she currently in a bohemian phase, but she loves T. Rex, and you don't get much cooler than a kid who likes T. Rex. If you go to congratulate Roo, congratulate her parents too, because she just became a big sister!

Fabulously Pregnant!

I recently got my hands on Skye Hoppus' brand new book, "Rock Star Momma". This pregnancy guide to looking fabulous during all nine months is SURE to go down as a classic on the shelves of your local bookstore's family planning section. It's all about bringing sexy back...maternity style!

Skye's resume includes heading up the MTV West Coast music office for nearly a decade and she is also the wife of former Blink 182 rocker, Mark Hoppus. Skye and Mark are the proud parents of one rockin' little dude!

She writes this guide from the "Hollywood" fashionista point-of-view. Rock Star Momma is sure to help you be that sassy, fantastically pregnant lady that you are! I find that this is a fun guide to read between pregnancies, too. If you're planning on becoming pregnant for the first time or for the fourth time, this comprehensive, stylish guide to being pregnant in the 21st century is where it's at. From playing it casually cool to how to dress hip and comfortable at the office, Skye covers it all. This guide will have you laughing, nodding in agreement and making notes of all of the "fashion tips" offered throughout the book.

They should make this book pocket-size, so you can bring it with you when you're browsing those aisles at the maternity store. This guide will help you shop and dress "Rock Star Momma" style!

WIN A COPY OF ROCK STAR MOMMA!

We have TWO Rock Star Momma guides up for grabs! Sign Mr. Linky below. Include your name and URL or email address (remember, you can enter your email by typing http:// before it). In the comment section, let us know YOUR fantastic pregnancy tips! What got you through those nine months? Two Mums readers will be chosen on July 29th at 10PM.

Good luck!

Mother-Ease!

I love cloth diapering! We're saving lots of money, and I'm ALL about that. It's not difficult (we don't have a service-just throw them in the washer!), and it's great for the planet that everyone's so worried about. We are saving over 2 tons of non-degrading waste by cloth diapering! Feel free to read more about the environmental virtues of cloth diapering here.

Now, the fun part, is that cloth diapers are no longer boring! Mother-Ease Cloth Diapers gives you so many fun choices in covers. Pictured here, you see Noel in his zoo print Air Flow Snap Cover. Underneath, is a Sandy's Diaper! I love these! They're so soft and roomy. This system doesn't get all hot like the old rubber pants people MY age used to wear (when we were babies, you goofballs!). The terry-cloth wicks away moisture, and as the name might give away, the cover allows air to flow, so diaper rash is minimal!

I also have a Mother-Ease One Size, which fits a baby from 8-35 lbs. Talk about a bang for your buck. We've been using one size cloths since Noel was born, and have only spent money on the initial investment of the diapers (around $120). In case you're interested, our water bill has gone up about $5 since we had a baby, but we do a lot more laundry now in general, so washing the diapers has really been a minimal cost.

If you're interested in getting started using cloth diapers, check out Mother-Ease! They have an introductory offer that will get you hooked! If you have any questions about cloth diapering, email me: laura@mumsthewurd.com! I'll be glad to answer your questions!

After you've hit up Mother-Ease, because I've convinced you to join the cloth diaper world, enter these contests! FREE STUFF! Woo-hoo!

Come Grab a Big Helping of Contests (and We Have a Winner!)

Stacey! You're the winner of the Little Showoffs contest! C'mon down!!!!!

Thanks to everyone who entered-and if you didn't win, you've got THREE more chances to win awesome stuff!

The Mums

Look Who's Talking

Right now, over at MeMo, Inc., they are busy creating these adorable, individually wrapped packages containing unique onesies to send out for you and your sprouts. What is even cooler is that the packaging is actually an eco-friendly reusable MeMo burp cloth!

MeMo onesies are one-of-a-kind. Why you ask? Because Robyn and company make a limited quantity of each funny little onesie and a portion of the sales are given to a different children's charity each month.

These 100%, high quality interlock cotton onesies come in two sizes, "Little Guys" (3-6 mos) and "Bigger Little Guys" (6-12 mos). Here is our buddy, Brett, modeling the "Available for Celebrity Adoption" onesie:

He looks quite dashing in it, if I may say. Everyone is talking about being "green" these days, so we should let you know that MeMo graphics are printed with soy-based inks.

Of course we wouldn't want you to miss out on such a hip baby onesie like the ones that MeMo makes! We're giving away the "Who's My Daddy" onesie in a size 6-12 months to one lucky Mums reader. So, whether it's for your own little sprout or someone you know, enter to win!

To enter, leave a comment with your name and email
address or URL by 10 pm CST on Thursday, July 19th.
Non-bloggers - you can enter too! Just be sure to leave
your contact info as mentioned above in the comment section or EMAIL us and we'll make sure that you are entered. (By the way...this tee would also look ADORABLE with some pink bottoms on a girl, wouldn't it?!)

While you're waiting for your name to be drawn, head over to MeMo, Inc. and find out what else your baby might have to say!

Good luck and don't forget to spread the wUrd!

Jessica from Sassafrass won the Tooth Fairy Pillow! Congratulations!

SlickSugar! Which, I forgot to tell you, ends NEXT SATURDAY, July 21st.

Tonight, I'm a Rock n Roll Star!

Oh, SlickSugar, I love you! You came into my life such a short time ago, and gave my son this most perfect t-shirt (I've been working with him on "Rock n' Roll fingers, but he doesn't have it down quite yet). Since then, I can't get you out of my mind, with your guitar gowns for newborns, and your rockin' duds for infants and toddlers. Vintage cars, flying V guitars, tapes...you're just too cool for school!

You know why I love you even more, SlickSugar? Because you've got a totally rad SALE going on right now...shirts with old "hogs", drum kits, boom boxes(!), break dancers, juke boxes, funky taxis and more!

I love you even more because your owners are cool, and they love fashionable kids and music as much as I do. Not to mention, they are philanthropic and give $1 from every sale to the Mr. Holland's Opus Foundation-because NO education is complete without music education!

Another reason to love you: you're giving all of our readers 15% off purchases if they use the coupon code MUMS. You're just too wonderful. I must go...I'm getting all choked up. You've stolen my heart, SlickSugar!

I forgot to mention onnnnne last thing: A CONTEST! My SlickSugar love will give one lucky reader the shirt of their choice! Just submit to themums@mumsthewurd.com the most ROCKINIST picture of your little tyke! They can be playing an instrument, giving "rock n' roll fingers", dancing, ANYTHING-as long as it's rockin'. Amy & I will pick our favorite picture, and feature it on our site, and SlickSugar will feature it on theirs! Enter, and keep on rockin' in the free world!

and while you're at it, enter these contests!

Who Loves Ya, Baby?

Is your little one the apple of your eye? Then they need a shirt from Il Cocco di Mamma! Donna started Il Cocco out of her need to supply her nephew with something cute and cultural. Out of that need, Il Cocco di Mamma was born, and we're certainly glad it was!
Aside from the large selection of Signature Tees they offer with slogans such as "bella" (beautiful) and "dolce come il miele" (sweet like honey), Il Cocco also offers lovely little shoes, wooden alphabet blocks in different languages, and books and CDs you know and love in various languages also!

Looks like there are two little tikes that we know that are definitely daddy's girl and mama's boy.


Whether you are raising a bi-lingual child, want your kids to have a more multi-cultural upbringing, or just want something fun and unique for your little one, Il Cocco di Mamma is the place to look!

Oh...and one more thing...while you're looking be sure and pick a chemise (French for shirt!) you might want! Two lucky winners will win the shirt of their choice! Just leave us a comment about your favorite cultural experience-whether it's traveling overseas, or eating at your favorite Mexican joint! The contest will end next Thursday, July 19th at 10 PM CST. Good luck!

Goin' Au Naturale, Baby

My hubby just came by and planted one on me and told me how "soft" my lips feel. To his compliment I replied, "All the better to kiss you with, my dear". Now I can see where BABYBEARSHOP came up with the tag line for their irresistible "All the Better to Kiss You With" lip balms.

These certified organic lip balms come in three lovely scents; Peppermint, Chai Mandarin and Lavender Vanilla. Let me just tell you...these are some fabulously natural lip balms! I can't decide which one is my favorite so I'm just going to tell you that all three of them are. Each flavor comes in a recyclable vintage tin, perfect for your pocket.

Diana Lussenden Stewart, founder of BABYBEARSHOP has quite a story to share about the birth of her company, which was born primarily due to her daughter's extremely allergic skin. We admire people like her for doing such in-depth research and creating smart products for all of us to use. Diana, you are a VERY UNIQUE MUM, indeed! Thank you for helping us all become aware of products on the market that we use on our skin. You can read more about Diana's story HERE.


BABYBEARSHOP has their own signature stretchmark oil (that has many more uses), "mama belly oil", as well as their own shea butter baby creme, "cheeky baby butter". Check out their organic gift sets, an absolutely fantastic idea for that new mom! There are seven unique sets to choose from.

You can also check out the BABYBEARSHOP blog HERE.

In the headlines AGAIN...

What do Tori Spelling, Gweneth Paltrow and Shanna Barker all have in common? They LOVE Little Showoffs' line of expressive tees!

Gweneth says,

"Oh my goodness, I absolutely love the Little Showoffs' natural organic line, Apple looks so cute in her Organic Baby tee."

So, in this instance, "Do as the celebrities do" and check out Little Showoffs. They offer great quality, reasonably priced tees with darling phrases like, "brand new" for newborns, "I can count" for toddlers and "I need a nap" for adults. There are many more where those came from. We may not walk the red carpet (yet) but Laura and I are in full agreement with the stars, Little Showoffs' line of specialized tees rocks!

Here is Hailey in her "Chicago baby" toddler tee. How fitting! We proudly sport this 100% ring spun cotton tee on her when we're out on the town. Be sure to check out their other "city slicker" tees HERE.


(Picture of Noel's tee coming soon!)

I couldn't resist "showing off" some of their maternity wear. Check out these fabulous tees and top for the mom-to-be!

Jacqueline is a proud mama of two very fine young men and owner of Little Showoffs. Her company tag line of "Celebrating every little thing" is very appropriate, as their line of colorful tees says it all!

NOW, HOW BAD DO YOU WANT ONE...OR TWO?!

Oh, Vincent!

We are Vincent CRAZY!
Vincent shoes are where fun, fashion, and function collide to bring you wonderful finds like the Smiths and Bettys that you see pictured.
Started in Sweden, Vincent Shoes were born out of necessity... it's necessary for kids to have shoes that are not only healthy for young, growing feet, but different and cool as well!
While fashion-inspired, the Vincent shoes are not "over-designed" and there is always a focus on fit, functionality and practical use, regardless of if it is a kid's shoe, a kid's boot, a kid's sneaker, a kid's daily wear shoe, soft baby booties and prewalkers shoes or a more heavy-duty Vincent kid's rain boot or kids' snow boot.
Vincent has so many styles to choose from-casual, dressy, rainwear, and so much more! There are so many choices, there's no way you'll leave the store with just one pair...aaaaand, right now Vincent is having a HUGE summer sale! Get 'em while it's hot!
