Method Baby Squeaky Green Hair + Body Wash

Method is definitely becoming a very recognized brand.  It is an environmentally safe brand which more and more are turning to. Pros:  First off, I love the design.  It’s cute and trendy.  The top pops off to use as a rinse cup for rinsing the wash out of baby’s hair and off their body.  If…

Skin MD Natural

I thought it was about time to review a couple things for all of the mama’s reading, and what better way to do it than with a shielding lotion, AKA Skin MD.    It is a shielding lotion that “Exceptionally enhances your skin’s hydrating and protective abilities.”  I’d never heard much about a shielding lotion…

Elimination Communication

I thought this review would fit perfectly as we have just finished up disposable diaper reviews. Holly is a reader of babes and kids and was invited to write a guest post on Elimination Communication. I had never heard of this until I talked to Holly about it, and it seems that it has worked…

Cloth Diapering

I personally don’t have any experience with cloth diapering, but invited Sara, a babes and kids reader, has.  Here is her review of cloth diapering: “I used cloth diapers with my oldest, Carson…the Fuzzi Buns brand. I LOVED them. They don’t look like the traditional cloth diaper, but more like a disposable, I think they…

Pampers Baby Dry

You all already know I am a Pampers Cruisers fan.  The Cruisers are the supreme style, while the baby dry are the original.  Are the baby dry as good? Pros:  These diapers are very soft to the touch inside and out.  They have a slight baby powder smell, but I think they are just enough…

Seventh Generation Diapers

Seventh generation has all sorts of environmentally friendly products.  They claim that their “soft cloth-like comfort keeps baby safe and dry.”  (seventhgeneration.com) Pros:  These diapers are made from a chlorine free woodpulp fluff.  This is evident as they are brown in color, so obviously they didn’t bleach them with chlorine.  They use polymer as an…

So it seems that being environmentally friendly is the way to go anymore. My sister-in-law Natalie started a blog about how we can do things in our everyday life to be more environmentally conscious. There are a couple entries she recently wrote about organic kid’s cereal as well as a great magazine just for moms,…

Snug and Dry Huggies Diapers

Pros:  I remember not necessarily liking Huggies original diapers with Chandler.  I had a little bit of a different impression this time around.  These diapers are really quite soft.  They have good coverage from front to back and run true to size.  The sticky tabs do a good job and I didn’t have them come…

Hi All!  As many of you know, we just bought our first home.  We don’t have internet hooked up and life has been a little crazy to say the least.  I will try to get on and post reviews when I can.  Thanks for being patient and watch for an update!

Tendercare Diapers

Tendercare diapers are another eco friendly diaper. We decided to give them a go. Pros: These diapers have great coverage and seem to run a bit big. I bought them in a size 4 which is supposed to be for babies that are 22-35 lbs. After comparing it to a few different diapers, I realized…
