Diesel Track Suit and Degrede Tee

Look like a total hipster yet still perfectly orderly in Diesel. There is a fine line between looking urban and being sloppy. That is a total mom thing to say, my younger me can’t believe I’m going there but what can I say, I’m a mom now and my DNA somehow changed to match my [...]

Balloon Helicopter Flying Toy

I just got this toy in the mail and my husband and I just wasted a half an hour having silly fun and laughing while playing with it. And that’s without the tots! One is taking a nap and the other is at school!! It is so simple and incredibly cheap, only $1.25. I mean [...]

Ella 4 1/2, Zack 2 1/2 and Olivia 4 Weeks I am so happy everyone is loving the Mom Snob Confessions. I will be bringing them on a weekly basis now so if you would like to nominate someone I should feature, please email me. Jori was our Tot Snob editor when we first launched. [...]

Wikki Stix Tons of Fun Kit

Believe it or not, the first time I saw these was at P.F. Chang’s. Instead of crayons, they brought 3 of these Wikki Stix for each tot. I was like, “Come on you can’t even get crayons? Wax sticks? This meal is going to be a mess”. Boy, was I wrong. These waxy sticks bend [...]

Themed Bookshelves Sparks the Imagination

Books fill the imagination so it makes perfect sense to have themed bookshelves for a head start on getting the creative juices flowing while picking out the books. Both of these are adorable, the Safari theme is a favorite (tots love animals!) so would be an ideal addition to the room. The Barn is great [...]

Fertility Specialist Dr. Andy Huang

I am sure you have heard by now that Angelina Jolie opted for IVF when conceiving twins Vivienne and Knox. I read it in US Weekly in which there was a quote from Dr. Arthur Wisot of Reproductive Partners Medical Group. Since I know one of their partners, Dr. Andy Huang, I decided to have [...]

Nippies Reusable Waterproof Nipple Pasties

It’s the summer and we’ve all gone swimming already at some point. If this HAS NOT happened to you already, I’d be surprised. This picture of Courtney Cox has been circulating but all this could have been prevented if she wore Nippies. When I was taking swim lessons with my tot, this was a daily [...]

A Scientific Sippy Cup Face Off

And the winner is……Nalgene Tritan Grip-N-Gulp BPA-Free Water Bottle ($8.25). Chip Brantley of Slate.com polled 22 parents and came up with a method of rating sippy cups using point systems as follows: Leakproofness (20 points): It has to keep the milk in the cup. Ease of care (12 points): The fewer parts to dissemble and [...]

3.1 Phillip Lim Swing Coat

If nothing else, splurge on the coat! After the age of 4, most tots’ growth slows down so you can actually get 2 years out of a coat. So there’s your justification =) Actually, the sizing of this coat is 3, 5, 7, 9 so it is meant for long term wear! Beautiful coats on [...]
