Christmas Card Tips

December 9, 2008 at 10:16 AM by Cafe Suzanne - Comments (4)

This weekend, I tried to take my baby's picture for our holiday card, and this is how most of them came out. Obviously I'm not a professional photographer. Fortunately, Cafe Cynthia interviewed pictureperfect, who is the owner of the Photo Moms group, for tips on taking a great holiday photo. She had some great suggestions.

Set of Crayola Fingerpaints, $5.49

Yesterday I did a little Christmas shopping with my 11-month-old. I know it might sound crazy, but it felt kind of weird to be buying presents in front of her. I want them all to be a surprise—especially the ones she gets from Santa.

Product: ABC Learning Blocks (in Eastern Blossoms)

Cost: $35

Where to Buy: Etsy

Extras: The set of 26 blocks comes in a hand-sewn drawstring pouch for easy storage.

Why I Love It: Even if I didn't have a baby I'd be coveting these lovely hand-stamped, non-toxic blocks. They are a wonderful way for burgeoning bookworms to learn the alphabet and be on their way to reading. I'm placing my order right now.

Gift Guide, Baby: Bathing Cutie

December 4, 2008 at 6:11 AM by Cafe Suzanne - Comments (2)

What to get the Bathing Cutie?

Bathtime is about getting clean and having fun. Here's what to get the baby (and the Baby Mama) who wants a little of both and already has a tub filled with rubber duckies.


Product: Furnis Spielweit Puppet Washcloth

Cost: $7.50

Where to Buy: What Every Baby Needs

Extras: Furnis Spielweit guarantees that its products are produced in humane conditions and in no way involve child labor.

Why I Love It: These cute washcloths fit adult hands and put smiles on little faces. I have all three because I couldn't decide which one I like the best. My daughter's favorite is the monkey, but I think that's just because of the monkey sounds and faces her silly mommy makes.
