Holiday Wrap Review - Little Frog Labradorite

Image
By






Wrap details: 55% cotton/45% bamboo blend – machine-woven –size 6 (4.6m); weighs 200 g/m2; ecru weft with a broken twill weave; bamboo fibers have natural anti-bacterial properties and it’s hypoallergenic
Wrappee:  BabyG (boy)– 9 months – 10.4kgs/22.92 lbs.
Wrapper:  small – chubby build

Review:
Enamoured with this rainbow love from Poland, its 55% fluffy and 45% feathery  texture just makes my little one extra squishy like sitting on Cloud 9.


  • Design – this prismatic little number is perfect for adding a splash of color on Mommy’s (and baby’s) OOTD; this can be gender-neutral for kids/babies but too bright for Daddies or male wrappers. Size 6 is a lot of fabric plus the silky, cushy material can make it a little “poofy” when bundling it in a hurry upon stowing it away; I had to take the time to fold it really neatly to fit into our small day (baby)bag.
  • Weather/season – I wore this around the park for a good 30 minutes on a sunny Sunday morning and wore Baby G again during Mass. I can say that it can get a little warm for both of us but still loaded with sleepy dust that made Baby G sleepy.
  • Type/s of carry -  tried knotless front cross  carry and it can get a lil slippy; start front carries tight to keep the grip. I’m wearing BabyG right now as I make this review in Christina’s ruckless back carry (check her at her Youtube channel: Wrap You In Love) and it is heavenly! I was surprised myself because I’ve only attempted a few back carries in the past and they can get really soggy (and it can be such a workout plus my T-Rex arms are not helping). This wrap is easy to manoeuver, which is a must for back carries I suppose. It was not diggy  on the shoulders and I am confident Baby G’s back-of-the-knees  are comfy. I am able to write this review with him secured in place!
  • Mummy budget – For this brilliant quality, I  can say that it is a bit of an upper range and  a recommended investment for this size too if you plan on wrapping a growing baby (or another squish in the future ;) don’t tell hubby!)
  • Sunny summary – It is something both Mommy and baby would have tons of uppy adventures especially in size 6, you can  experiment with many carries and can accommodate any body type and baby’s growing body, too. Perfect for babies’sensitive skin because of its hypoallergenic and antibacterial properties. I give it 4 sprinkles of sleepy dust out of 5! My first wrap is a size 5 so it can be a bit daunting for a first timer and a hobbit like me to work with so much fabric but it was so much fun exploring different carries and finishes with its silky texture. Just keep it tight and y'all be alright! ;)

Great Image Family Photoshoot

By
The Christmas Holiday is fast approaching and it is a perfect time for families to get their photos taken. There are many options to choose from and we got ours from Great Image Studios.  We went to Beloved Studios in Megamall which is also a sub-company of Great Images. We were accommodated by their manager, A and Joan, the photographer. They made us feel at ease and were very patient with giving us instructions and they especially loved working with Baby G. I can definitely say they are experienced with handling little kids with their energetic process of capturing memorable shots. Their photoshoot session starts as low as 350php. Great deal, right? The photos below are our high resolution digital files and we got ours sooner than we expected. :) The D'Towns are looking forward to our printed shots - will post them as soon as we get them!  Do you want to get a free photo session with (1) 5R print?

Carrier Review: Baby SaBye Mei Tai

By
Type of Carrier: Baby SaBye Mei Tai Carrier details: Mei Tai  - reversible blue and red; standard size; handwoven 100% natural cotton; vegetable dye The back is 14.5 inches (at waist) and 16 inches (at shoulder) wide; 17 inches tall without waist strap. Each shoulder strap is 9.5 to 10.5 inches wide, and 87 inches long. Waist strap is 3 inches wide and 69 inches long. Wrappee:   BabyG (boy)– 10 months – 10kgs/22 lbs Wrapper:   small – chubby build –US size 10 First glance – Baby Sabye Mei Tai looked thick and a bit rough. This is my first time to try a mei tai and I had some reservations with the straps, the size where Baby G will “sit on”  and if it can withstand Baby G’s weight on the get-go. When I tried tying the waist belt, it was crunchy and I made an effort to tighten the knot to secure it. The straps were thinner than the waist belt which was floppy and flexible. When I wore Baby G, it was an instant hit with us! ...

SAHM TV: TV Guilty Pleasures

By
Blog entry:  TV Guilty Pleasure First of all, there's a whole lot of misconception that we, SAHMs, are "just" at home and that's all there is to it. We are busy Queen Bees in our own hives. We do chores, cook decent, edible (and sometimes 5-star quality *wink*) meals on top of handling little tykes. These darlings may be small but they can be a handful. As Stay-at-home Moms, we also need a break from our "workload" and we turn the TV on in hopes to see something that can take our mind off all the worries, chores and the list of other things we need to/want to do for the day (or even the next day!). What are your TV guilty pleasures? The kind of which you think you would not really like as much but then you suddenly find yourself following them. Back when I was single, I only had limited TV time and I just selectively watch what truly captured my interest. Here are my Top 5 TV guilty pleasures: 1.) Keeping Up with The Kardashians - ...
