Tue, 8 Jan 2008 01:47:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - It's a funny thing about having children - with your first, there's a mile-long grocery list of "must have" items that the new parent feels compelled to purchase. Assuming you hang on to all of your baby gear, by the time your next child comes along,...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - This review reveals minor plot details. It seems as though I used to have time to do so many things that I enjoyed...reading, knitting, writing reviews here on Epinions. Ahem, yes - reading. Not too long ago, the other moms in my...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - When my daughter was a tiny baby, I read to her constantly, hoping that she would grow to love books just as much as I do.

LUSH Youki-Hi Bath Bomb; Worth Scrubbing the Tub For

Thu, 16 Feb 2006 20:00:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - Baths just aren't a big thing in my house. I enjoy them on occasion, but don't enjoy the tub-scrubbing that must ensue before I can relax it. I've never known my husband to take a bath, and even my two-year-old showers with me more often than she takes a...

Mr. Potato Head Silly Suitcase; Her FAVORITE Christmas Gift!

Fri, 6 Jan 2006 01:25:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - I had never given much thought to Mr. Potato Head until just a few months ago. I never had one as a child (it's a wonder I'm a functioning member of society after such trauma), but always thought he was pretty cool - or at least as much so as a plastic...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - With the Christmas season fast approaching, I'm finding myself wondering what to buy for my daughter.

Sun, 6 Nov 2005 02:44:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - I knew that it was bound to happen sooner or later. My tiny main bathroom, despite my best closet organizing abilities, reached its capacity.

Fri, 30 Sep 2005 01:24:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - Like most expectant mothers, I began shopping for the essential baby gear months before my daughter was ever born. The first of my friends to have a child, no one told me that the s
wing,
the...

Dora the Explorer; "Come On, Vamanos!"

Sun, 18 Sep 2005 13:28:02 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - I never meant for it to happen. Dora the Explorer was just another one of those oh-so-annoying kiddie characters that I never wanted to infiltrate my home. However, unlike Barney - who I have kept at bay for more than a year and a half now - Dora...

The Wiggles; Get Ready to Wiggle (Mom, That Means You, Too!)

Wed, 10 Aug 2005 13:11:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - My little girl took her sweet time learning to walk - she could crawl at warp speed and knew that someone would pick her up and carry her if need be, so why bother? It wasn't until around 15 months that she took those first tentative steps, and was off...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - This review includes major plot details. After a long day of chasing a toddler that's much faster than she seems, avoiding some meltdowns and tolerating others, and attempting to keep the dust bunnies from a hostile takeover during my "free...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - This review includes major plot details. I'm an absolute mushball when it comes to my little girl, as most everyone knows by now. I cried when she got her first pearly white tooth - after all, with any luck, she'll never not have teeth...

Tue, 2 Aug 2005 15:57:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - This review includes major plot details. My mom always bragged about what a wonderful baby I was - apparently, I slept through the night at six weeks, ate solid food with no problems around the same time, walked and talked early, never cried,...

Mon, 1 Aug 2005 17:38:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - This review includes major plot details. After you use the bathroom, you wash your hands. This was the message I had drilled into my head from the time I was tall enough to reach the sink - and now that I have a child of my own on the brink of...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - This review includes major plot details. At just shy of eighteen months, my daughter has two obsessions: books and her brand new potty. Even though we're not actively potty training just yet, we did buy one so she could get used to the idea,...

The Body Shop Peppermint Pumice Foot Scrub; A Summertime Must-Have

Sun, 31 Jul 2005 20:57:07 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - I always dread the arrival of summer a little as it marks the time of year when you must, in order to survive the crazy heat, expose those parts of your body that you've kept tightly under wraps all winter long - super pale arms and legs, and feet that...

Little Tikes Studio Design Toy Chest; The Little Toy Chest That Could

Thu, 28 Jul 2005 18:20:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - They say that ignorance is bliss, and I definitely believe that it's true. As a first-time parent, I had grand delusions that a) we'd keep toys to a minimum in our house, and b) they'd all be put neatly away in my daughter's room when not in use. HAH! By...

Mon, 25 Jul 2005 18:18:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - This review includes minor plot details. I both love and hate series of books. On one hand, it's nice to be able to find out "what happens next" with the characters you've grown familiar with, but on the other, I always feel as though I must...

Wed, 13 Jul 2005 20:48:57 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - Like most people, I'm sure my daughter won't remember her first Easter.

Philosophy Pumpkin Pie 3-in-1; Is It Thanksgiving Yet?

Wed, 13 Jul 2005 14:12:13 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - Honestly, I shouldn't even preface my Philosophy reviews with an introduction any more - everyone at Epinions knows I'm an addict, one who will never rest until I've tried each and every one of their 3-in-1 products. One of my most recent purchases was a...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krissingene - It will come to no surprise to anyone who has even glanced at one of my reviews in passing that I'm completely crazy for bath and body products.
