    Wii, it’s giveaway time over on my other blog! Jessica alerted me to the Environmental Working Group’s current study on bottle-fed babies and Bisphenol A.

    Product recalls: Lead in keychains, lead in children’s bracelets. Just don’t buy this crap, OK? It appears to always contain lead. Check this sweet photo that just screams “love.” The best weddings are the ones where the couples really love each other. And now some sweet mom love. I love those talks too. Yeah, that…

    Things recalled because they might set you on fire: lamps and washing machines. (What’s next? Shoes? Hats? Socks? Lint?) Tiffany on Vicodin. Awesome! My date with Gapmoms is in August when Mike starts kindergarten. Should be “interesting.” No joke, by coincidence I started this blog during last year’s BlogHer. I live about 20 minutes away…

    Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! You say potay-to, I say shit, that’s hot! This is something I’d like to find out first-hand.

    Sage advice from Momsquawk on praising your kids. The first Vlog post in GRIT. I love it! Bald Brit — that’s just sad. (And as for her mom? I suspect she’s crying all the way to the bank.) It is hard to post about how hard newborns are if you’ve also struggled mightily just to…

    Oh, if I had been lucky enough to have had a Steve in my life at age eight, I might not have recovered. HOT! Dismissed by Archer! “A hot mom is confident, sort of.” Rock Star Mommy has a great narrative to go with her tattoos. And the next time someone titles a post “The…
