First of all – have you ever seen anything so simple yet so cute?

The hand-knit BlaBla dolls truly make a one of a kind gift for your own baby or someone else’s little one. The handmade quality to each doll is second to none.  Each Blabla doll is hand-knitted lovingly designed and hand-knitted dolls made in Peru. These super-cute, cuddly, and safe squishy dolls are designed two friends who fell in love with local Peruvian hand-made dolls. The artisans live in tiny villages where handmade dolls have been created for generations. Their investment in the local Peruvian culture has allowed us to pass along these sweet and original dolls to our own community.

Made with natural fibers, the dolls are incredibly soft, safe, and cuddly. The sleep experts will tell you that if you’re trying to get your baby to sleep through the night, you should get a little soft “lovey” that stays with them when they go to sleep every night. Whether the Blabla doll becomes your baby’s lovey to lull her to sleep, or is on the go with your baby everywhere, the cuddly doll is sure to become a favorite. Just the right size for little arms to wrap around or for a baby to fall asleep on, it will become hard to pry it out of their little hands.

Sure, you’ve seen enough cute and cuddly dolls to tide you over for life, but these really are unique. Some have stripes, others have dots, and you can choose from a pig, a bunny, a mermaid, you name it. Something about these dolls will strike a chord with your baby and become one of their absolute favorites. You may even have to get a replacement one just in-case it goes missing!

If you’re looking for a perfect gift, the a Blabla is always a hit.

Let’s not kid ourselves, there are a LOT of different strollers out there. Some are great, others are just OK. One of our all-time favorites is the BOB Revolution Stroller (AKA – “BOB”). If you are striving to be the kind of parent that will not let having a baby slow you down, then BOB will help you to get out of the house and hit the trails again (paved or dirt, in the neighborhood or at the mall).

Here are a few reasons why we love BOB:

The revolving front wheel – a MUST. If you have had one frustrating experience with a stroller, it is maneuvering it around without looking like a parent-in-training. The front wheel of the BOB Revolution Stroller will swivel around, which gives it a superior turning radius without putting any additional strain on your wrists. If you’re inclined to lock the front wheel, the Revolution gives you that option, too.

The BOB Revolution has been built with rugged tires and quality suspension, how cool is that? That’s right. The Revolution was built with suspension to take the tough trails and beat up sidewalks with ease. Your little one will still be able to sleep while mom or dad gets exercise. It’s a win-win situation for everyone.

Other cool features to make your new life easier. The details of the BOB is what makes this stroller above and beyond your run-of-the-mill jogging stroller. The rugged frame will fold up easily and last for many years. The reclining seat is adjustable so your little one can nap on the go. With plenty of storage underneath, 2 interior pockets, and the large canopy for sun protection, there are too many reasons to love the BOB. These are just a handful of reasons that the BOB Revolution is one of our all-time favorite strollers.

Come in to The Tulip Grove and we will work with you to pick out your favorite color options, and delivery takes just a few days. Choose from the single or double BOB Revolution, priced at just $389 (single) and $589 (double).

Bit-o-Trivia. The BOB was designed by a man named……Roger! BOB stands for Beast on Board (since he used to design mountain bikes) but we prefer to say Baby on Board!

Swaddling your baby” is one of the (many) secrets to a quiet and well-rested baby and Aden + Anais has unlocked this mystery with their fantastically large and soft muslin blankets to get you one step closer to finding peace in your life again.

Aden + Anais was created by two Australian moms living in the U.S. who had a hard time finding large muslin wraps they were used to having back home. Fortunately for us, A+A took their product one step further and created a line of other baby essentials, including hooded towels, super soft washcloths, sleep sacks, and thicker blankets for the extra cold months. All of the A+A products are pre-washed and made of super-soft cotton muslin that is perfect for baby’s delicate skin, and easy for parents to wash over and over.

Why we love A+A. The swaddling blankets are large with a bit of stretch to it. This is the only one we have found thus far that truly has more than one use and is a rockstar when it comes to the necessary mastery of swaddling. The wraps are large and made of muslin with just the right amount of stretch.

How many ways can you say multi-functional? This is one of the
swaddling blankets best assets. Besides your ability to now swaddle,
you will also have the lightweight blanket to pull out for the last
minute sunshade. Since the fabric is muslin, it is very breathable and
light-weight.

Other cool Aden + Anais products we love. They also have a great line
of hooded towels and washcloths for your little one, not to mention
the lightweight sleep sacks that just came out. (Yes, we have them!).

Last but not least, they have cool designs and make great gifts. We
LOVE their designs – they are stylish and modern.  If you are
searching for a baby shower gift the pack of four A&As are sure to be
a hit!
