rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author wolfec2 - It was time to move our son to his "big boy bed" because he refused to sleep in his crib and I was sick of him sleeping with us. I read all the opinions on all the bed rails listed here at Epinions before deciding to buy the Evenflo Swing Down Guard...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author wolfec2 - We purchased the Gerber Diaper Bags Basics 5 in 1 Diaper Gift Bag Set when our first diaper bag wore out when our son was only 2 months old. I guess I tried to pack too many things in it and it just couldn't handle it. This bag can handle...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author wolfec2 - We purchased the Kids II Attach-A-Rattle for our son when he was around 4 months old as a toy that could double as a teether. Don't all toys double as teethers for babies? :) We purchased this teether for the black and white colors and the...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author wolfec2 - My son received the Soft Walkin' Wheels - Puppy as a gift when he was first born. It looked like a really great toy and we were excited to play with it ourselves. We were disappointed.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author wolfec2 - My son received the V-Tech Moosical Beads from a friend of ours (who loves cows) as a gift when he was a couple months old. He was not interested in it until he was able to be propped up. Once he could use his arms for something other than...

Wed, 13 Sep 2000 11:28:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author wolfec2 - My son received the Right Height Tee Ball as a gift for his first birthday from my father. I guess my father was just too anxious for our son to play baseball (which I find odd since he isn't a baseball fan). My husband couldn't wait to get it...

Wobble and Dribble

Tue, 12 Sep 2000 11:28:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author wolfec2 - The First Years Self-Righting Trainer Cup was one of the first sippy cups we bought for our son. I wanted to give our son juice or water in a cup only because I thought it would be easier to wean him from the bottle if he was used to the cup.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author wolfec2 - I first picked up Home Comforts at our local library because we had just purchased our first home and I wanted to get some tips on keeping it clean. I got so much more than I bargained for.

Purse for Boys?

Fri, 8 Sep 2000 17:10:54 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author wolfec2 - My daughter received the Baby Purse for her christening from some friends of ours. She is a little too young to play with it (3 months old) but her older brother loves it. All the adults at the party had to try all the toys in it. We also had to make...

Not a pump but a sprinkler

Thu, 7 Sep 2000 10:13:12 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author wolfec2 - I bought this pump when my son was 5 days old and I was engorged. I had a Medela electric pump but I didn't have any of the equipment (horn, seals, tubes, etc) and the stores were all back-ordered. I went to Toys 'R Us and bought the cheapest pump I...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author wolfec2 - I decided to try the Priceline WebHouse Groceries because of all the commercials and I am a "techie" so it just seemed natural to shop for groceries on-line.
