Here's a slick little stroller accessory to keep your cell phone handy when strolling in the park and or keep you entertained on the treadmill!
The Texthook is a simple yet handy little gadget that has an adjustable base and Velco strap that securely and conveniently holds your cell phone on most stroller handlebars (or anything with a handlebar). Among others, it holds Iphone's, Blackberry's & Droid smartphones (see compatible phones for the full list) and fits onto Bugaboo®, Baby Jogger™, Maclaren®, Uppababy®, Phil & Teds®, BOB™, Life Fitness® and more!
Combine this with your bluetooth and your a walking powerhouse! It's fairly easy to use. It took me less than a minute, not reading the instructions, to figure out how to attach it and holds on very solid. Depending on your stroller you can have it front and center or off to the side and it didn't obstruct my view anymore than my cup of coffee would! (Loving it on my treadmill, too!) A sneaky perk... if your phone has it, you can tell your friends your stroller has GPS! $25.99 @ thetexthook.com.
Special Savings! Use code POSH20 for 20% off!

I just had a baby! OK, well I didn't technically have a baby but I'm a new Aunt so I embracing the new baby atmosphere just the same. And since my new little nephew is 100% bottle fed, I was so excited to check out the CPSIA compliant Coddlelife Laboratory Grade Borosilicate Glass Bottles and the PP (Polypropylene) Bottle with Peristaltic Anti-colic nipple. Glass just seems safer in these scary recall days and anti-colic doesn't sound so bad either!
The Coddlelife Polypropylene (pink one shown above) bottle features the Peristaltic nipple which has it's own little 'breathing tube' as I called it to help pull some of the air out of the bottle. The tube has a tiny slits at the bottom to redirect air up and out of the bottle & the nipple top is very soft/stretchy and has a textured lip base to stimulate baby's senses. The bottle has a nice chunky design that's very comfortable in your hand, is super light and of course are non-toxic, BPA, lead. PVC & Phthalates free. $6.99 (currently on sale for$5.59) @ Coddlelife.Com
The 8 oz Borosilicate Glass Bottle is lighter than I expected (never having held a glass baby bottle before). It has a very solid and sturdy feel that was still very comfortable when feeding the baby. What's up with borosilicate glass? Laboratories use this same kind of glass as well as the thermal insulation tiles in space shuttles (coated with borosilicate glass) due to it's superior strength, durability and ability to resist thermal shock. They're non-toxic, BPA, lead. PVC & Phthalates free. $8.26 @ Amazon.Com
The Coddlelife Silicone Bottle Wraps are the coolest thing. The colors are so vibrant and are such a hip cozy (way cooler and more hygienic than whatever grandma is knitting you) for the Borosilicate Glass Bottles. They help insulate the bottles, add a cushy feel for the bottles and help prevent against breakage. They are also microwave and dishwasher safe plus they have an opening along the side so you can see the contents of the bottle. Non-toxic, BPA, Lead. PVC & Phthalates free. $4.99 @ Amazon.Com
Win This! Enter for your chance to win 1 of each of these (glass bottle, PP bottle & cover)! Enter by 1/31/2010. Open to US residents, 18 years and older; void where prohibited. To enter (you may do any of these):

Story time at our house is by far one of the nicest moments of the day. Regardless if it's bedtime, playtime or crazytime, snuggling up for a story calms everyone's nerves. It distracts us all (yes even mommy) from all the other daily responsibilities and with the right book will end with lots of giggles, hugs and maybe even a good tickle fight.
Big Fun! and Wet Friend! are two books that are not only thrilling for kids, they are a super fun read for grownups. The retro styled Adventure Of Meno series is the gloriously colorful and energetic tale of Meno, a quirky elf of space that lives in a house of cloud who has equally quirky friends. Written by husband and wife team Tony and Angela Diterlizzi and brought to you in Meno-Color by Simon & Schuster, you can't get through these books reading out loud in a normal voice. With a brief appearance by David Hasselhoff, you may find yourself thinking the books are funnier than your kids do. It's my new favorite for story time and one that I always ask, "Do you want me to read it again?" Find the whole Meno series @ Borders.Com.
Want to find some big fun with Meno online? Turn your computer into Planet Meno with colorful & fun desktop wallpapers and a downloadable coloring book featuring Meno and his out of this world friends @ PlanetMeno.Com
Win This! Contest Details: One lucky PL reader will win signed copies of Wet Friend! and Big Fun! as well as a custom-made blanket with either the Wishi character or the Meno character (winners choice of character).

Is your baby at that stage where they are starting to walk but stumble a lot and quiet often slump back down on the floor to crawl instead? Finding the right shoe for this stage cab be really tricky. You want to outfit them in a pair of shoes that are sturdy for walking but not clunky to trip them up or weigh them down when crawling.
We found a very cool pair of big kid style shoes that with a baby and growing baby in mind. Beibi Shoes have a more rugged and sturdy construction that typical baby shoes but are still lightweight and sweet. One of my favorite parts of this style in particular (the Taylor show above) is that the rubber soul wraps up and around the tip of the toes. I had countless shoes that I had to toss and wasn't able to hand down because the toes were too scuffed up from crawling even though the rest of the shoe was fine. This adds a little extra protection when their crawling and dragging their toes. The faux strap and heart buckle are a sweet accent that makes them great everyday shoes with a touch of fancy. $31.95 @ WeSqueak.Net

Mommies heart this time of year. It's a time of year when we are probably about 88% sure we are going to get something shiny and new. If it's not a new appliances (the other white meat for moms) it's jewelry.
Jewelry. It's safe. It's exciting. It's expected yet still fun and giddy. It can be "safe" yet exhilarating with Guy And Eva. The glory of Guy And Eva is that it's dependable on how stunning their jewelry is but it's bold and blingy (celebrities dig it) so it's such a treat. They take traditional styles and bring them up a notch! Enough to where the styles are trend setting yet still have a place in every situation. Our favs:
Chandelier Earrings (shown middle): I am so in love with these. So beautiful and perfectly weighted with Smokey Topaz, Topaz, and Jonquil Austrian Crystals. They aren't heavy like many chandelier style earrings but large enough to extravagant.
Bella Cuff (shown left): An amazing piece! I think as a mom we try downplay our jewelry (the kids just want to gnaw or pull on it) but at the same time we deserve some thing gorgeous so this is perfect. So perfect I'll be giving it away (read on....)
Martina Necklace (shown right): I'm stealing Rachel Zoe's, "I Die!" This is such a beautiful necklace. It's chunky, it's good. This bulky (in a good way) and amazing wooden bead and acrylic bead necklace is just so cool. The soft purple, brown and silver hues will blend wonderfully with so many outfits and styles.
Love it? How about a Party?
OK so us moms love any excuse for a party. Husbands take the kids away, we have a delectable spread and beverage assortment ready to schmooze and sell the night away! Guy And Eva offers hostess rewards! Find out more..
