Baby is my Co-Pilot



If you are a family that likes to bike, then you have to check out the iBert for your little nugget! We recently purchased one of these green gadgets and our little guy can't get enough of our biking adventures!

As the driver of the bike that my little is riding on I have to say that I love this seat. It has a much better center of gravity than a rear attached seat and I totally feel that he is safe and that I am in control. He also loves the view and we can talk and share the scenery during our trek.

They cost around $90 and worth every penny!

Here is what iBert has to say about their awesome baby bike seats.

"What's So Great About the iBert safe-T-seat?

*It's better than trailers

*Interaction with your child

So if you are in the market for a child's bike seat, check out the iBert! It's pretty rad.

Super Cute Reusable Snack Bags!


Kids and their love for snacking go hand in hand... or shall we say hand in mouth! All this munching typically requires a ton of plastic snack baggies or quite a few bulky containers. Ditch the plastic and the disposables for true snack-time ease with a flair; and choose a better, eco-friendly choice, such as the personalized reusable cloth and nylon lined snack bags from bleuroo.etsy.com.

We ordered about 10 of them in different sizes. Sandwich size and small cracker snack size. They are absolutely perfect! Here is what Bleuroo says about their reusable baggies "The outer shell is 100% unbleached cotton; the inner liner is water and stain resistant nylon, no icky plastics touching and leaking bad things into your food. The bag closes securely with Velcro. For most snacks all you need to do is shake out the crumbs and you're good to go! For especially wet or sticky snacks you can just throw the bag in the washer and hang to dry. Side seams are double stitched for extra durability."

The super cool thing about these snack bags, besides the obvious eco-friendly benefits, is that they come hand embroidered in the color of your choice with whatever saying your heart desires for free. You can get creative and put your little sprouts name on them, the contents of what each bag may be holding, or just fun little words for each baggie.

So check out these innovative and reusable sandwich/snack baggies which diverts waste from our landfills while saving you money in the long run.
