Fri, 23 Nov 2001 21:39:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - My mom introduced me to Carrabba's. We had moved out of town and she wanted to treat us to a new restaurant in our hometown. Carrabba's was the place!

First impressions mean a lot. And the minute you walk through the door you are assaulted...

The basics but with a cup holder!

Thu, 25 Oct 2001 15:53:05 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - I purchased this booster for my son when he was a little over 2 years old. He had reached the weight requirement, and this seat looked like it would be a good choice. I really liked the added cup holder feature on this one. And the fabric design went...

C'mon...let's have a ball!

Tue, 23 Jan 2001 14:35:23 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - I bought this toy after seeing a friend who had purchased it for her son. My son wasn't as impressed with it at first. That was over six months ago.

Now he loves this toy! He plays in this ball pit everyday! He loves to "swim" in it and...

More than meets your eye!

Tue, 26 Dec 2000 09:08:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - I looked at the 2000 Ford Focus in an effort to cut my monthly car payment. I had previously owned one of the smaller SUV that I wasn't totally impressed with after a year. I turned to the Ford Focus for several reasons. The key one being that I...

Free ISP...only if I'm desperate

Sat, 2 Dec 2000 22:28:25 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - I thought signing up for a free internet service provider would be a wonderful idea. Who won't want to save the $20 plus fees for the big name providers? I don't think I kept it for a week!

Yes, to sign up and download Alta Vista, it was...

Unimpressed with this diaper

Fri, 7 Apr 2000 08:45:02 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - I ordered the ATD all-in-one because they looked to be a very trim diaper, and I had heard that they were very absorbent. These diapers are well made but were just not for us.

I did not like the way they fit my son at all. They did fit him...

Another Fave of Mine

Fri, 3 Mar 2000 14:13:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - Bumkins All In One diapers were some of the last cloth diapers that we tried. I just didn't hear as much about these as I had some of the other all in one cloth diapers. These diapers are made with flannel on the inside and a waterproof shell for the...

The box makes a good toy!

Sat, 19 Feb 2000 09:06:30 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - My son is fascinated by the container his wipes came in, so I thought I would try the Playtex Stackables Wipes. I found them on sale, had a coupon, and figured once couldn't hurt. These wipes are horrible!

They are thinner than the other...

Over and Out!

Sat, 19 Feb 2000 08:38:03 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - This monitor was a gift from our baby shower. I liked the fact that it "scrambles" what it picks up so anyone on the street can't listen to what's going on in your house. It has two channels to use, and I've found that one always seems to...

Rockabye Baby!

Thu, 17 Feb 2000 09:28:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - Many parents may balk at getting a hand-me-down piece of baby equipment. Especially something that will get used a lot in the first few months. I was really skeptical about using something that another child or parent may have tortured, but this swing...

A Strait Jacket for Mom and Baby!

Thu, 17 Feb 2000 09:13:33 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - This carrier was given to us by a friend after our son was born. I was really into the idea of carrying the baby around while cleaning or shopping, so I thought this would be a great way to do it! NOT! My son was on the lower side of average weight...

Too Much of a Hassle

Thu, 17 Feb 2000 09:05:26 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - We received this high chair as a baby shower gift. We had registered for it, because I was really looking into multi-functional baby equipment. It was fairly simple to put together...it took us maybe an hour.

I really do not like this high...

A Great Car Seat Choice!

Sun, 6 Feb 2000 22:24:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - When my husband and I were in the market for another car seat, I saw this one featured in a national baby store ad. It was on sale and I had a coupon on top of that. I went to check it out. I was very impressed with the quality of the workmanship and...

Sun, 6 Feb 2000 22:09:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - It didn't take me long once I had America Online to stumble across a message board. I was searching for information about becoming pregnant and came across the Parent Soup community on AOL. I posted there one time and was incredibly surprised by the...

The ONLY Breast Pump to Consider

Sun, 6 Feb 2000 10:10:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - I did a lot of research on the subject of breast pumps when I was pregnant. There are very many out there and a wide price range to ponder. The Avent Isis seemed to be the cheapest one that was rated well. I bought mine several months before my son...

Give it a Chance!

Sun, 6 Feb 2000 09:56:59 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - You really do not hear a lot about this Johnson's product. But I have really been impressed with it. I had received a sample of it as one of my many baby gifts. This diaper rash ointment sample came in the smallest package so I tried this one first...

Tipsy and Turvy? Not for my child!

Sun, 6 Feb 2000 09:47:37 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - My son grew out of his baby bathtub at about six months. My mom told me to invest in a baby's bath seat. The Safety 1rst one seemed like the most available, so this is the one I bought. The idea looked great, however, the result was less than perfect...

A Fashion Statement in A Diaper!

Sun, 6 Feb 2000 09:33:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - Call me crazy, but I love the way diapers look on my son. Before we converted to using cloth diapers, I would buy ones that were "cloth-like" and had cutesy patterns on them. When I got my Kushies Classics, I thought they were adorable. They...

My Reason to Convert To Cloth

Sun, 6 Feb 2000 09:22:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - My husband and I were looking for ways to save money. It was suggested to me to switch diapering my son in disposables to cloth. I was not so sure. Disposables are so much more convenient, right? WRONG! After searching on the web, I found a picture...

The Fertility "Bible"

Wed, 2 Feb 2000 08:21:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - This book was recommended to me when I was trying to conceive. I was really down in the dumps because the paths of infertility seemed all so confusing. This book was a real lifesaver! It taught me so much more about my body than any health teacher or...

Open Wide!

Wed, 2 Feb 2000 07:58:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - I first tried the Avent bottle system because one came with the breast pump I purchased. I was breastfeeding my son at that time, and I found that when he used a Avent bottle, his mouth formed the same shape as it did when he was nursing. Josh was...

Great First Phone

Tue, 1 Feb 2000 09:06:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - I have to admit that my husband suckered me into buying this phone. He got a two-for-one deal that he thought we should not pass up. I was very reluctant to buy a phone that would only be good for service in the Sprint PCS network. That's not...

Tue, 1 Feb 2000 08:47:05 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - I have been using AOL Press to create my family's web pages for quite some time. I admit that I am a beginner, and this software was a great way for me to start learning how to build a web page! I found it very simple to use. I definitely recommend...

Good Value Car

Tue, 1 Feb 2000 08:32:55 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - I bought my Dodge Neon late in the car year 1996. I looked for several months at them and felt comfortable that I knew a lot about the car when I bought it. It was perfect for me at the time. I was single and wanted a roomy and practical car that...

Swatter Up!

Mon, 31 Jan 2000 22:52:53 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author RebeccaZ - My mother bought this Gymini Activity Gym for my son. It is a good toy for babies who are at that swatting stage. My son would lie under it and swat at the toys for almost an hour at times. The bright colors and different shapes really captured his...
