You can toss a small natural flokati right into the washing machine, no problem. Just don't ever use bleach or Oxyclean on it... cool/warm wash and air dry. They wash up beautifully.

Kate, any desire to post plans for a DIY version? I'm totally willing to work with cement and rebar, so I'd go for it... put together some plans and post it!! :) Also, I've seen this p...

When I first saw this I thought, "Woah, that's decadent..." But the cost of this was probably somewhere along the lines of a relatively inexpensive vacation. I kind of doubt that I wou...

There's a seller on eBay that has the original pink kitchen for cheap. I did "make an offer" and got it new for $60 shipping:

Can I get a link to the original pink kitchen? I can't find it on the Target web site and I'd love to pick it up. These makeovers are very inspiring!

We've been using the Baby Bjorn "Little Potty" since my son was about six weeks old. We just hold him on it for a minute during diaper changes and if he goes then it keeps his diaper cleaner longer...

So pretty. Looking at this makes me feel like I'm living in the future and the past all at once... love it.

I think the kid's hand in the pocket tells the whole story here: Anything in those pockets would become toys for whoever was occupying the crib. Also, how long does it take to walk from the crib to...

I love this idea, but anything in that bin would end up all over the floor. My son is only ten months old, though. Would probably work better with older children. Uh, and let's call a ...

I haven't found an reputable studies confirming these claims. That being said, while I was pregnant I liked to play metal once in awhile to release stress. My son's favorite thing to f...

I took the double doors off my hallway closet and made it into a small mudroom. I LOVE IT. I put up a bunch of hooks, a bench with some baskets for shoes, etc. My guests really like it... coats act...

We aren't too far from paperless, but my husband starts tweaking out when we don't buy paper towels for awhile. We use cloth napkins for dining, cloth diapers, and lots of dish towels for general p...

My son ate pureed food for about 3 months total. We started him on homemade veggies/fruits at about 5.5 months and by 8 months old he had four teeth, which is enough to chew bites of table food.
