Home away from Home

Sun, 17 Jun 2001 15:31:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aestep - After camping last summer in our old one room tent with a toddler, a baby and two adults we decided it was time for a new tent, one that we could move around in. I began looking at tents early in the season and immediately decided that this was the one...

Great Portable Music!

Tue, 10 Apr 2001 11:54:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aestep - We had bought a portable CD player several years ago and returned it after only a couple days of using it. Why? Because in the car it skipped horribly! Every little bump we went over it skipped. Not worth the money we paid for it.

Well, we...

No Ride is Complete without Raffi!

Sun, 29 Oct 2000 21:40:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aestep - No matter how long or short our car ride is, it isn't complete without "rockin' with Raffi" (as our 4-year old puts it). One of our favorite tapes by Raffi is "Baby Beluga".

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aestep - I only have one thing to say about Red Lobster: When are we going?????? I love this place. With the occasion less than perfect service (which is very rare to have), we have never had a bad meal here.

Tue, 9 May 2000 18:24:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aestep - When my second son was born 10 months ago I was a lot more relaxed about things. With my older son EVERYTHING had to be the top name brand stuff. We had already made the decision to bottle feed the baby (as I did with my older son) and had decided to...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aestep - Okay.....I have to admit that this little game is ADDICTING! I bought this yesterday to take on a trip I will be taking in a couple weeks. I wanted something to keep me entertained while I am traveling through airports.

But now that I have...

Great Seat!

Sun, 9 Apr 2000 00:36:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aestep - When our youngest son was 7 months old we had to decide if we were going to turn him around to forward-facing in the car seat or invest in yet another car seat. He had reached (and surpassed) the 20lb limit for rear-facing in the old car seat. I had...

Just as Easy to Use a Garbage Can!

Sat, 8 Apr 2000 20:45:52 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author aestep - The Fisher Price Odor Free Diaper System is anything but odor free. Almost from the moment I started using it it stunk! If I changed the bag every day or every other day it cut down on the smell but soon the smell took over the entire pail and even...

Kirkland Signature Supreme Diapers: Just as good as Huggies for less money!

Sun, 6 Feb 2000 22:19:00 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aestep - We all know diapers are expensive.....and a lot of the time if you buy the less expensive kind you get a 'cheaper' diaper-meaning it leaks, doesn't protect against rashes, etc. We used to buy our Huggies at Costco Wholesale Club because it was the...
