Here I was, only a few weeks away from delivering my new Baby and I still had not found a pram. I was starting to get really anxious as my nesting instinct was really kicking in..You know what that is like!

I was determined to find one - one that has all the features I desired. Having been used to prams from owning them in Europe, I really didn't want to settle for anything less.

I hit the internet like a mad woman..searching, searching, searching..and all I could come up with were the strollers that Celebrities owned...Now excuse me: I'm not rich! 

PLUS, it was very difficult to search by what I was looking for in a stroller..

One day I came across a website that finally put an end to my search. On this website I was able to compare different strollers by their features, activities, accessories, etc. 

And there it was:

THE STROLLER OF MY DREAMS! and affordable at that!!

The QUEEN B BUMBLERIDE!

It comes with a Toddler seat, but you have the option of purchasing a bassinet as well..I did!

THIS IS A PICTURE OF MY OWN STROLLER WHICH CURRENTLY HAS THE BASSINET ATTACHED. THE NET ON THE HANDLE BAR DOES NOT COME WITH IT.

I LOVE it because it features :

*Multi-adjustable handle height and position

*Reversible seat/bassinet! Baby can face you or "the world"

*Large and sturdy storage basket

*Easy dual lock braking system

*Steerable AIRFILLED wheels!(comes with pump) You have the option to put the wheels in the in-line locking position

*Canopies feature a storage pouch as well as a see-through window.The bassinet and toddler seat each come with their own Canopies.

*Removable cup holder

The Toddler seat comes with the following features:

*Secure, one-push harness system

*Backrest reclines into 4 different positions

*Footrest  is multi-adjustable

*Reversible, just like the Bassinet

 If you love prams, like to be able to reverse the seat(s), adjust the handle so that Daddy can comfortably push as well..You will asbolutely LOVE LOVE this stroller!

 I found the stroller I'd been looking for at LETS GO STROLLING..Maybe you will too! 

Okay..so I live in Florida, and have lived here for 5 years now..But it wasn't until I had little Miss Zoey, that I realized that no one here had parasols (umbrellas) attached to their babies strollers..What the heck???

The sun is scorching every day...and there are no parasols?

 How do parents protect their babies from the sun? I wondered.. I started paying attention..I could see blankets, towels, cloth diapers..etc draped over strollers..as well as parents that kept taking a peek underneath, to see if their precious little one was okay, behind this make-shift "drapery"..

"Odd"..i thought..

I was used to seeing parasols..and owning them myself..(yes..in europe)..Why aren't people using them here???Well..it wasn't until I wanted to buy one, that I realized I couldn't find one..ANYWHERE! No wonder no one uses them here!

So, I hit the internet again..This time I went straight  to LETS GO STROLLING..and sure enough..they had some!! *Yay*

 I ordered mine right away..and LOVE it. No more squinting and squirming "vampire baby" as Julian called her ;-)

 The parasols are made by SHADY BABY. They have several designs. Very delicate, feminine and/or boyish and playful ones.

Here are the features of the SHADY BABY PARASOLS:

*Provides SPF 50 Sun Protection !!! WOW

*Waterproof

*Flexible joints- block the sun from any direction (literally!)

*Push button that allows for 180 degree pivot

*Universal clamp fits 3/4" - 1 1/4" round or oval tubes (you can remove the  parasol and leave the clamp in place)

You can either purchase the parasols directly from SHADY BABY or LETS GO STROLLING. Just click on the banners below!

 Below you can see pictures of my own stroller with the attached parasol.<$MTEntryTitle$> 

Okay, so here is an awesome (!) Baby carrier!! The BECO:

 I had sworn off ever using a baby carrier again after my first two kids.With both,Vanessa and Julian, I had tried more than 2 different types of baby carriers. But none of them were really functional or easy to use. In fact, they were a real pain in the butt. Plus: they  really hurt my back!

With Zoey I had no intentions of using one again, until I came across the BECO BABY CARRIER. This carrier is amazing!!

Read my BLOG  entry "Oh Belly!" about this product.

The Boppy pregnancy wedge  slides between your ever growing belly and resting place, providing comfort and much needed rest.

The slipcover is easily removed and washed. And just as easily put back on.

 Below, you can see a picture of my own Boppy Pregnancy wedge. I loved it, and still use to this day to support my back while nursing.

Most of us are very concerned about what goes into the mouths of our children. We hear horror stories about recalls of toxic toys,etc. 

Buying something as simple as a pacifier or teething ring can become challenging when you have to wonder "can I give her this one? is it non-toxic?"

By accident I came across the most awesome product..and I am so glad that I did!

Oscar & Belle's pacifiers and teethers are made from all natural rubber l!!

You can choose between the ortho and round shape and they come in 2 sizes.

The teething ring is the shape of an apple or fish and is just too cute!

Due to the size, I am unfortunately unable to post pictures for these particular items because my camera does not allow for the quality picture that I would like to present on this website. 

(I will have to get a new and better one soon! Any suggestions which kind???)

But go to Oscar & Belles' website for pictures and more detailed descriptions.You MUST go see for yourself..Just click the banner below!
