Cute Alert: Baby Dances to "All the Single Ladies" - Part Deux

TresSugar — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 13:00:00 -0700

The "Single Ladies" craze is sweeping the Baby Nation! I know we just brought you a baby dancing to Beyonce's hit yesterday, but this response is just too good to pass up. In a baby dance-off, the cutie in the video above would dance the first baby under the table (or onto the floor, judging by the first baby's moves). Honestly, I think baby number two might do the dance better than I ever could. Seriously. This kid knows the actual moves. Should we get ready for a new show: Dancing With the Babies?

Cute Alert: Baby Hears the Call of "All the Single Ladies"

TresSugar — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 13:30:00 -0700

It's official. Beyonce's "All the Single Ladies" is so catchy that even a baby can't resist it. I know some people say they're tired of this song, but this video may revive your interest!

Get Your Shutterbug Started Early With the Camera Bib

GeekSugar — Sat, 29 Aug 2009 10:10:28 -0700

We geeks like to get 'em started young around here. Any of you guys with a baby should get your hands on the Camera Bib ($10) for tots - think, they can get their pureed peaches all over it, while still looking like the coolest kid in the playpen.

And of course, if baby's in this, you need the matching t-shirt. Obviously.

Please, Give This Baby Back His iPhone

GeekSugar — Mon, 04 May 2009 14:30:26 -0700

I can really relate to this kid. I get whiny and cry, too, if someone takes my iPhone away. I know the panic inside.

The Wii Turns Baby Into Hysterical Giggle Machine

Look, I knew that Wii was a ton of fun, but I've never had the kind of fun this baby's giggles tell of.

Sunday Confessional - I Can't Stand To Be Around My Friend and Her Baby

DearSugar — Sun, 01 Mar 2009 09:00:00 -0800

My best friend recently had a baby. She and her husband tried for years to get pregnant, so when it finally happened for them, she was over-the-moon excited. Since she's had her beautiful baby boy, she's gone above and beyond the call of mom duty, and has completely let all her other relationships fall by the wayside.

As a mother myself, I know how time-consuming caring for a child is, but she has taken things to a whole other level. She's become a huge germaphobe and is reluctant to take her baby outside of her house, she constantly talks in baby voice, and all she ever wants to talk about is babies.

If her friends want to see her, we have to go to her (which is fine at first), but when we do go over, we have to go through a lengthy process of washing our hands and disinfecting everything that comes in contact with the baby. I love my best friend with all my heart, but I have to admit that it pains me to be around her and her child. It's gotten to the point where I make up stories to avoid them and I'm starting to feel incredibly guilty about it. Can I be forgiven?

Submit your own Sunday Confessionals here and see if you are forgiven!

Custom Baby Accordion Books: Ga Ga or Gag?

LilSugar — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 09:00:03 -0800

There's no denying these custom baby accordion books are remarkably beautiful, but is having a professionally made brag book worth the $175 price tag? The concept is very simple: you send the company 15 photos and it creates a fan book to match your images, prints it on fancy paper and add pretty ribbons. I am wowed by the look and think they would make the ideal gift for family members, but overwhelmed by the cost. What's your take?

Hippychick Hipseat For When Mama's Back Needs a Break!

LilSugar — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 09:00:04 -0800

Although women's bodies were designed with wider hips to carry around our lil ones, sometimes it doesn't work that well. A mom's body can ache at the end of a long day toting around a toddler - especially the clingy ones that insist on being carried everywhere. The makers of the Hippychick Hipseat ($52) have an admirable solution for your youngster and your sore back.

The hipseat snaps around your waist like a belt but has a built in padded foam shelf for your child to sit on and support their weight. The seat provides added comfort and protection for your back by keeping your spine straight, something that is difficult to do. Manufactured by a company in the UK where extended walking is an integral part of life, the hipseat is endorsed by osteopaths, chiropractors, and health centers. It comes in a variety of colors from black to burgundy and also has an inner pocket to secure small items like cash or credit cards. It fits children ages 6 months to 3 years and ships to the United States.
