August 30, 2011 in baby stuff

Part of getting a good night sleep is knowing that your baby is sleeping comfortably in her own crib. When I was sleep training our daughter, I would find her either all curled up too tight in her blanket (like a taco!) or no blanket at all.

This Zojirushi CD-FAC22 Zutto Micom Electric Dispensing Pot is exactly what we have in our house and I use it daily! What’s the big deal? It provides your household with boiled hot water anytime you need it. Why would you [...]
