Here we are again, talking about all the gear that you will need for your new baby. I hope that I haven’t overwhelmed you and that you are taking this in stride. I have already covered the nursery, clothing and bath time layettes, so if you haven’t read through those, I would recommend [...]

Well, here we are with our third installment of building a layette. I know that I am probably taking you through the long haul but I find that it is much easier to understand the whole layette in sections than in getting a list that doesn’t really explain what each part is and what [...]
