Last month, I had the pleasure of jetting down to NYC for a tommee tippee North America press event.

I know, #dreamgig.

But more than the glitz and glamour of New York, and the awesome chance to learn about one of the hottest brands to come over from jolly ol’ England, I must say…

I fell in love with tommee tippee. So much, I *briefly* considered having a third. Oh yes, my ovaries were aching.

I remember sitting in the incredibly stylish Manhattan loft thinking – how can I ever cram all this goodness into one post? There are so many über-clever features to each product, it would be a shame to lump them all into a generic review with a smattering of random photos.

Therefore, I’ve decided to pick out my favourite items, and dammit – I’m going to convince you to buy them. And so I’ve spent the better part of a month getting familiar with their best-selling (and most loved) infant and toddler products, and you can look forward to more reviews over the next few weeks.

Yes, I was sent a whack of stuff to check out. No, I’m not being paid a cent to be such an enthusiastic #fangirl. Just happen to think this brand is tops. (more…)

I’m never happy to post that a store is closing – especially a Canadian small business that has a stellar reputation and selection of drool-worthy baby products. Alas, Pinky Blue is closing it’s doors -

It is our sad duty to notify you that Pinky Blue will be closing its doors soon. The past 6 years have been a wonderful experience for us. We have been lucky to be part of your lives, share parenting tips, see your children grow and witness some of you become parents for the first time. Thank you for your time and trust, without you, Pinky Blue would never have been possible.

I’ve purchased from Pinky Blue several times over the past few years and I’ve always had great experiences; competitive prices, reasonable shipping costs and quick delivery. Really sad to see them go.  But, to Business -

Here are my picks for items you should take a second look at. Where possible, I’ve listed a competitor’s current selling price so you can judge for yourself if it’s a sweet deal.  (more…)

I never thought of myself as the type of woman to have a BFF. 

It’s quite obvious, actually; I covet my personal space, don’t mind being by myself for long periods of time and would much rather dance to the beat of my own drum. So the fact that I’ve been attached to the hip of my BFF for the last 18 months is somewhat puzzling to me – especially since it’s out of character for me to share so much with one individual.

Meet my BFF… my Breast Feeding Fanatic.

Reid will be 18 months old next week, and he’s still firmly attached to my boobies.

(That’s 1.5 years for those who don’t speak mom-ish; I know, we’re insufferable with our measurement of baby’s age by months, no?)

Please don’t assume I’m one of those women who believes exclusive breast milk is best until the child is 4 years old, because Reid does eat table food (he loves fruit and pasta) and drinks homo milk, juice and water. But, he also loves a good cuddle with mommy, and asks for breast milk about 10 times per day.

Of course, I don’t actually give in to his demands – allotting him only about 5 minutes at the breast a handful of times. But that doesn’t stop him from trying his luck; he normally gropes at my top whenever I’m too close for too long, and although Reid hasn’t mastered speech just yet, he can clearly articulated his desire for “Neh-Neh”. And sometimes I cave; it’s just the best way to calm him down from a tantrum, get him drowsy for a nap or keep him shushed while I talk on the telephone.

Trouble is, I’m not quite sure how to wean him. And I’m not quite certain I want to.

Truthfully, I’d love for him to sleep through the night without the expectation of a warm quickie to lull him back to sleep. And, I’d be even happier if I could be away for a day and not have rock-hard boobs by the end of it. But the simple fact is, I can’t imagine not pulling him onto my lap and bringing him in close; having his warm hand on my heart as he settles in to feed. I rather enjoy the one-on-one time with him, and feel the need to protect a bonding experience I’m not willing to give up just yet.

My continued relationship with my BFF is met with mixed reactions.

“Good for you. I breastfed my little one until she was two.”
“You know you need to stop, right? He’s old enough.”
“Are you still f%#king breast feeding???”
“That’s awesome. I plan on breast feeding for as long as possible.”

I’m not too concerned with what others say. Depending on my mood, I’ll wholeheartedly agree with them (“I know! I’m sick of it already! He needs to be weaned…”) or just shrug my shoulders and go about my day. I know that the decisions I make will be best for Reid and me, and it’s sometimes hard for onlookers – even friends and family – to appreciate that. But it’s not a big deal -

After all, nobody comes between a girl and her BFF.

File this under “What will they think of next.”

Well, being Fisher-Price, I guess staying one step ahead is just what they do, no?

Introducing the Apptivity Case, designed especially for mothers who are iPhone & iPod touch users. It’s an awesome little accessory that is designed to shield your precious device (um, the phone – not your baby) from junior’s dribbles, drools and sticky fingers.

(Side note – I know I signed up for sticky fingers when I became a mom, but Lord-in-Heaven I had no idea just how sticky they could be – and how often. Next to poopy adventures, I am quite disgusted by the whole sticky finger phenomena. Yuck.)

Moving on… it’s quite simple to use: simply lock your  device inside the case, et voila! Kiddies can bang, throw and whack their siblings without damaging your phone (though we do not in any way, shape or form endorse the whacking of siblings – that’s simply an observation from my toddler’s experience with the case).

Additionally, you’ll get three (3) new, FREE Fisher-Price Apps which – if you’re cool introducing your child to Apps between the ages of 6-36 months – will keep them entertained, engaged and help them practice hand-eye coordination.

With the holidays just around the corner,  think about your friends who have newborns or small toddlers. Chances are, if the young’uns haven’t discovered the ol’ iPhone yet, it’ll be any day now. Be a pal and place the Fisher-Price Apptivity Case ($19.99) under their tree.

Shocker! A Britax feature on Listen to Lena!

Okay, I suppose I *may* have featured Britax products a time or two (or three, or four…). But quite simply, I believe that they are the most trusted name in juvenile products, known for their commitment to thoughtful engineering and top-quality, intuitive design. And since they happen to be the number one selling manufacturer of car seats in Canada, chances are you’ve already purchased one.

(Since I’m all about sharing valuable information… read my reviews for the Britax Advocate 65 CS, Britax B-READY and Britax Chaperone Travel System.)

Now I’ll be frank; when it comes to my children’s safety, I don’t shop around. For car seats, strollers and carriers, it’s Britax all the way. But I recently found myself in a bit of a new situation; now that the boys are older, sometimes I’ll take one of them with me to run errands, for play dates – even to attend press events. And since I often end up in downtown TO, I prefer zipping around in my car vs. taking my husband’s large SUV. (Have you ever tried finding street parking with a large car? ‘Nuff said.)

The trouble? I drive a Mini Cooper. And they’re teeny. (more…)

It’s one of my hap-happiest times of the year!

Since my kids aren’t of school age just yet (one more year for Ryder – eek! Where did the time fly?) I generally look forward to the Old Navy Baby Sale, which happens every year around this time. And from now until September 22nd, the mad savings are back!

Step 1: Visit Old Navy in-store or online and enjoy savings on EVERY item (average discount 30%), from sizes Newborn – 5T.

Step 2: If shopping in-store, be sure to visit Old Navy’s FB Fan Page first and print out your coupon for an additional 30% off one item (excludes clearance, gift cards and jewelry – BUT you can use it on non-clearance items in the baby sale, which covers just about everything). Valid until September 22nd. The coupon code is universal so you may want to print two and ask the cashier to separate the transactions: I do it all the time and it works like a charm.

Step 3: If you decide to shop online and have yet to sign up to receive ON news (or have an extra e-mail address you can throw in there… shhh… I won’t tell) you’ll instantly receive a coupon for $10 off your purchase of $50 or more (which equals 20% off your entire purchase if you only spend $50). A bonus? You’ll score FREE shipping.

I’m off to rummage through Ryder’s fall/winter stash to see what he needs for the upcoming season. Poor Reid is always good to go with big brother’s hand-me-downs; perhaps I’ll grab him a few new threads in the sale as well. He deserves it!

Who doesn’t love a good contest? Especially when it celebrates your baby’s oh-so-important achievements!

Simply register at FisherPricePlay.ca and you’ll have the chance to win a “Celebrating Milestones” prize pack of Fisher-Price toys valued at $200, plus a spa gift card valued at $200! There’s a prize every month until October, so link on over today!

Here are the contest rules:

*Contest open April 14 – October 31, 2011. Milestone story not required for entry. All consumers who register at FisherPricePlay.ca during the contest period will be eligible to win one (1) of six (6) prize packs from Fisher-Price (each valued at $400). Draws will take place monthly, starting in May 31, on the last day of the month, until October 31, 2011. Winners will be contacted directly by email, and may be asked to share a milestone story at that time. All non-winning registrants will carry forward and are eligible for subsequent monthly draws.

If you have a chance, be sure to share a milestone story – us moms love to ooh and aah over all those precious highlights! I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing a few milestones over the past month or so – little Reid turned 1 at the end of May (I think first birthdays are always a baby’s most celebrated milestone), he began to walk shortly after, and just recently he has started calling out “Mama!” when he wants to be picked up! It is such a joy to see the changes from day to day, especially since he was just a tiny little baby only a year ago.

As for Ryder, we just cleared a major milestone – after going over two weeks without a single accident, I can semi-confidently say he’s toilet trained! Of course, I know that there are relapses, random accidents, times of illness, etc. that can be a setback to toilet training, but for the time being we are insanely proud of our little man!

Be sure to visit FisherPricePlay.ca to find toys that help celebrate children’s milestones. As they play, laugh, and grow you’ll both enjoy countless milestone moments together, and Fisher-Price is there for each and every one of them.

I’ll never forget the first time Ryder tottered over to our front lawn. A sea of green; he was anxious to test the waters. But there was just something about the look, texture or smell of the fuzzy carpet that made him stop dead in his tracks.

“Here you go!” my husband cajoled, plonking him right in the middle of the lawn.

And the water works began. He simply would not move his feet an inch, opting instead to cry while riveted on the spot. It literally took weeks before he ventured over again, and several more before he was able to tread grass without screaming his little head off. If I had to add it up, I’d say we spent hours coaxing him to take just one small step.

Two years later to the date, we’ve got another little guy terrified of the great green goblin.

Were your children afraid to walk on grass? Join the club!

Note: The following giveaway is open to US and Canadian residents.

But more and more men are taking an active role once baby arrives – including my own husband, who learned to change a diaper before I did, and can expertly tell the difference between “tired cries”, “hunger cries”, and – as he likes to call ‘em – “I own you b*tch!” cries.

I know, I know… I just blogged about the awesomeness that is BABYBJÖRN. But when this came across my desk this morning, I just had to share! DROOL!

Unique safety solution & portable
The high chair’s unique design keeps the child securely in place and has two-step locks that can only be opened by an adult. Plus, the high chair is easy to fold. When folded, it is only 10.5 in/26 cm wide and is easy to store or take with you on a trip.

Perfect for the child’s back
Small children are not well-seated or comfortable in most high chairs. That’s why the BABYBJÖRN High Chair has a curved backrest that hugs your child’s body, and an adjustable table that helps your child to sit comfortably upright. The high chair is suitable for children from six months to three years, and is easy to adjust to your growing child.

Less mess
To minimize mess, the BABYBJÖRN High Chair has smooth surfaces without nooks and crannies where food can collect. The safety table fits snugly against the child’s tummy so that food does not fall into his or her lap. The tray-table is easy to take off and may be washed by hand or in the dishwasher.

The high chair will be available in stores at the end of summer, and is currently available for pre-sale exclusively through Giggle.com. Woot!

There are only a handful of companies I can always count on to make my life easier. BABYBJÖRN is one of those companies.

It’s no secret that one of my most coveted products for Baby Reid was the Babysitter Balance; one year and hours of happy bouncing later, I daresay its one of the most thoughtfully designed baby products I’ve ever had the pleasure of reviewing.

So it comes as no surprise that when in the market for a travel crib, I looked to BABYBJÖRN first. An essential for travel across the country (or just from room to room), the Travel Crib Light is the perfect way to keep baby contained – and content.

The good folks at BABYBJÖRN sent Reid a silver crib (pictured above). From the very first day, it has become one of the most popular products in our home.

Lena Loves:

Convenience. The BABYBJÖRN Travel Crib Light weighs only 11 pounds (5 kg) – that’s light enough for grandparents or even older siblings to tote around. The case’s practical handles make it as easy to carry as an ordinary bag; no more awkward golf bag setups like most standard playards. And the sleek styling makes it a pleasure to cart through the airport – I’ve never been able to match the bright juvenile patterns of other playpen shells with my crocodile Prada handbag, know what I mean?

My husband and I took the Travel Crib Light Challenge – while he came in at about 22 seconds, I was well behind at 41 seconds. Of course, I competed while holding an excited, wiggling baby in one arm – proof that not only does the travel crib set up in under a minute, but it can also be set up one-handed.

Safety and Comfort. I want to stress that although your wee one will likely have fun hanging out in the crib, it’s not a playard. The Travel Crib Light is a safe, comfortable place for your child to sleep when you’re on the go. Made with high quality and machine washable Oko-Tex Standard 100 (class 1) approved fabrics, it translates into peace of mind for parents and a good night’s sleep for baby. The BABYBJÖRN base sits directly on the floor and the frame fans out wider at the bottom. This ingenious design prevents tipping from both sides of the crib and makes it a safe environment for both baby and siblings.

Now have you ever felt the “mattress” that comes with a standard playard? More like a piece of cardboard, right? Well, the Travel Crib Light’s one-piece waterproof mattress is both plush and breathable, allowing for a sleeping experience as close to baby’s crib as possible.

If you think you won’t have a use for the product, consider this: I’ve traveled very lightly in the past year – not enough to qualify me as a world adventurer. The reason I find the BABYBJÖRN Travel Crib Light so convenient is the ability to take it from room to room in literally seconds. I always have a comfortable, safe place for Reid to chill out while I go about my day, and if he happens to nod off in the cozy environment – well, I’m not complaining at all :)

Here’s the Travel Crib Light in “Action” -

REID WAVING FROM HIS FAVOURITE PLACE TO CHILL

CAN YOU SPOT THE CRIB AMIDST THE CLUTTER DURING MY RECENT RENO-CATION?

EVEN RYDER LIKES TO CRASH IN THE CRIB – IT’S SO COZY AND COMFY, IT’S JUST LIKE OLD TIMES!

As you can see in th last picture, even a ridiculously tall 3-year old can enjoy a nice siesta in the travel crib. Guess there’s just something about the plush, soft environment that makes him all sleepy!

The crib retails for CDN $329.99 and can be purchased at major retailers across North America. In the Greater Toronto Area, look for it at Dear-Born Baby and Babies R Us.

Baby Reid is growing up!

As we just celebrated his first birthday, a popular topic of discussion at his party was, “So, are you done with breastfeeding?”

Technically – no. I still BF him morning and night, and any time in between when I’ve got a few moments and he’s craving boob (just like I crave chocolate, I bet). But when we’re on the go or I’ve got things to do, he’ll happily sip a straw cup filled with homo milk.

I can’t deny that weaning brings about a whole new sense of freedom, but old habits die hard and frankly I do miss the closeness. Which is why Reid is still 50% boobage… with me being at home, there’s really no rush to wean completely.

So I began thinking about my breastfeeding journey one year ago; my struggles, my hopes and finally, my success. Remember A Tale of Two Boobs? Seems like a lifetime ago, but after reading the posts, I’m filled with awe and satisfaction of how fine-tuned nature can be. Therefore, I decided to do a post on five things I’ve learned along the way.

1) Breast is best, but formula is fine, too. 

I’ve got two beautiful, healthy boys – one completely on formula, the other, 100% breast milk. I thought after I successfully breastfed that I would have an epiphany; that I would suddenly realize what all the hype was about. Well, I can’t deny that there are oodles of benefits of breastfeeding, but when it comes down to it, I felt no more love, satisfaction or peace than when I fed Ryder. Just as I spent hours connected to Reid, I spent the same time cuddling and holding Ryder close as I bottle fed him. So when it comes down to it, I think as long as you’re making a concerted effort to love, care for and nourish your child, after you’ve made your choice (hopefully an informed one), don’t beat yourself up over where that nourishment comes from.

2) Adhere to the “Two Week” rule.

When I first decided that I truly wanted to give breastfeeding my best, several mamas weighed in with advice. But a recurring token of wisdom was to simply hang in there for two weeks. Yes, it’s VERY uncomfortable. And your nipples will feel tender, sore, and will likely bleed. And it’s a b*tch if you’re trying for the first time following a c-section. BUT, take a short term approach. Tell yourself to hang in there, if only for two weeks. With Ryder, I quit after four days. I just couldn’t see myself going through any more pain or frustration. But had I just hung in there a little longer, who knows? With Reid, around the 4-5 day mark I once again found myself caving, but I was steadfast and held my ground. And just like most mamas predicted, after about 10 days, suddenly it hurt a LOT less, my nipples “toughened” up and stopped bleeding, and like magic, Reid got the hang of it.

So I’m now a HUGE fan of the two week rule. Of course, there are many instances in which no matter how long you persevere, breastfeeding is not for you (or your child). But in instances where your resolve is weaning purely based on pain and/or discomfort, hang in there. You’ll be amazed at how quickly things turn around.

3) The “latch” is a temporary phenomenon.

When you’re first introduced to breastfeeding, it’s all about baby’s latch. You’ll find written instructions, diagrams and even videos which will show you the preferred placement of baby’s mouth on nipple. And while it is vitally important in those early days to establish a correct latch, rest assured, after a month or two, you’ll no longer be so interested what baby is doing with his/her mouth. Because once a baby learns how to get what he needs, he’ll get it – lying down, upside down, you name it. In fact, Reid’s currently favourite position is with me lying on my back and him crouched over me with his butt in the air. It goes against everything I know about gravity, but hey, he’s drinking and he’s happy. The latch is only important in those early days – after that, baby’s instincts will take over.

4) A breast pump is a valuable tool.

Yes, I wrote a review and had a giveaway for a Medela Freestyle. But I just want to put it on record that I firmly stand behind both the product, company, and value of having a quality breast pump on hand. It’s particularly important in the first month, while establishing supply.

The Medela Freestyle helped me in the following ways:

a) In between BF’ing sessions, I pumped to stimulate my milk supply.
b) I sometimes topped off Reid after breast feeding with the pumped milk, so I was always certain he’d had enough to drink. Took a lot of the guesswork out, and saved me from supplementing with formula.
c) Pumping and storing allowed me to be away from Reid for short periods of time, and even gave me a break at night when hubby took over one feed.

Not sure if it was nature or all my efforts pumping to stimulate supply, but for the first 7-8 months I actually had an oversupply to the point of engorgement. But I’m not complaining!

5) The weight doesn’t always “fall off”.

It’s always amusing to read about celebrities’ theories on how they dropped the baby weight. “It’s definitely the breastfeeding” they always say. Oh sure. It has nothing to do with the personal trainers, team of nannies (who allow them to spend 5 hours a day in the gym), personal chefs or calorie-restricted diets. And it’s most definitely not that jaunt down to Brazil for a quick nip and tuck.

Now while it is a fact that breastfeeding burns up to 500 calories per day, technically, to maintain a healthy supply, it’s advised that lactating mothers increase their calorie intake by 300 calories. However, as most exclusively BF’ing mommies will tell you – you’re freaking STARVING all the time! So with a proposed deficit of 200 calories, the weight won’t necessarily fall off dramatically. BUT, breastfeeding will help you return to your pre-pregnancy shape more quickly, and with less intervention. It also helps if your body is in prime physical shape before you conceive – as any trainer will tell you, muscles have memory.

However, don’t be surprised if you hang on to an extra few pounds until you’ve started the weaning process – in the two weeks following Reid’s introduction to homo milk, I dropped 6 pounds without even trying. Turns out my body needed that extra fat to aid with the production of quality milk for my babe – a trade off I’m more than willing to oblige.

So there you have it – five things I didn’t know just one year ago, but am happy to share now. And to all the past, present and future breast feeders out there, my final tip post-lactation: invest in a quality push up bra!

LA VIE EN ROSE AIR PAD BRA

For my Canadian readers, it’s the unofficial start of summer! What are you doing this Victoria Day long weekend?

Years ago, “May 2-4″ meant a lot of things to me – predominantly booze, barbecues and bikinis. Planning a trip to the cottage, lake or (if weather permitted) beach required much organization and resources, a task that is still undertaken by truckloads of teens today.

When my partying days were over, I looked forward to what every working gal does – a day off. There was still booze and barbecues… but rather than keep the party going through ’til Monday night, Victoria Day long weekend represented a chance to sleep in and unwind.

(For my American friends, Victoria Day is a Canadian public holiday that occurs each year in May to commemorate the birthday of Queen Victoria.)

Then, last year, a little angel changed my perception of this holiday forever…
