Want to be the real winner of the upcoming holiday season? Give experience gifts to the kids (and adults!) on your shopping list instead of toys. Don’t get me wrong toys are great but typically families already have WAY TOO MANY. Instead, give a gift that makes great memories without cluttering up the house.

I am well into my third trimester of pregnancy now and my water has not broken – hooray! The weekly progesterone shots seem to have worked and every day that I can keep this baby developing inside me is a win.

This past year my daughters (ages four and two) have started to love chapter books being read to them. Before bed each night my kids each get to pick out two books to read and inevitably one of the girls always picks a chapter book. Depending on the length of the chapters we read one or two chapters a night and then we put a bookmark in to hold our place.

The health and safety category of your baby registry is one of the most important. You will be so happy that you registered for, or purchased, these items in advance of your baby arriving.
When your baby gets sick you will want everything on hand to help your child feel better. Your baby’s first fever is not the time you want to be running out to stores to buy medicine.
As far as baby proofing goes, most of the items could wait to be bought until the child starts crawling, but why not put the products on your baby registry to receive as gifts?
