Nuby Easy Grip 3 Stage Feeding System

August 12, 2013 By Stefanie

Disclaimer: As a Nuby Mommy Blogger I received product for review. These are my opinions and experiences, yours may differ. The reason I picked the Easy-Grip 3 Stage Feeding System to review is because my baby is venturing into the world of food.

Helping to Improve your Child’s Reading Skills

April 24, 2013 By Stefanie

Photo by: MistoAcrilicoCan you remember learning  to read? Me neither. The process is slow and steady, for both parent and child.

Vitamins: Gummys VS Chewables

April 5, 2013 By Stefanie

I have a very picky eater at my house. When we went in to the doctor for my children's yearly check ups I spoke to her about his nutrition. I, of course, talked to her about my concerns with his lack of eating vegetables and most meat. She told me to just be sure to keep offering him the foods, that hopefully he would eventually start eating those foods and to remember to give him a daily vitamin. I told her we loved vitamins at our house! My children always remind me to give them a gummy … [Read more...]
