Young Sophie cannot yet read. Were she able to, she would know that she sometimes bears what my husband calls “Mommy Propaganda”. He refers to the common “I love mommy” quotes printed on babies’ bibs, footies, socks, and more. There are many variations of this. (I did not buy any of these clothes. They were all gifted.) “Do you want to wear your Mommy Propaganda shirt?” he asked our grinning infant as she lay on her back, beaming after a diaper change. “Oh, look, it’s your Mommy Propaganda bib!” he would exclaim while grabbing the topmost bib from the clean…

Before I needed to pick a baby’s nose, I would not have thought about designating a pair of tweezers to be “nose-picking tweezers”. However, one finds oneself saying and doing different things in life, especially when one adds a baby! My baby sometimes gets hardened mucus particles in her nose. Although she is occasionally able to sneeze them out on her own, they sometimes stay in for a few days. Baths only help loosen her clogged nostrils so much and mucus wipes marketed for babies do not seem to help me get very far inside her nose. Young Sophie’s grandfather…

Any baby in this lovely spring green footie with bright florals will look like he or she is ready to take a pleasant nap outdoors! Printed at the chest is “lovely” in a fine cursive below a butterfly appliqué. Is the butterfly lovely? Or is it the baby who is lovely? Or is it meant to be a statement about the clothes itself?

When I first saw this outfit, I thought that it looked very nautical. I also noticed that the feet appeared to be one-horned narwhals! This may be because one of her other outfits had one-horned unicorns. However, the two sharks swimming at the breast of the baby who wears this outfit probably shows that the feet were meant to be sharks. With back fins. I cannot be the only one who sees those narwhals. Anyway, my child cannot appreciate the animal differences amongst her newborn outfits, nearly all of which are of the same basic design and thus strongly resemble…

I believe that what you wear says something about who you are. In some cases, what you wearing literally says something. This hat, with its bright rose-gold foil-colored cursive commonly associated with throw pillows, decor about living and loving, and weddings, is not quite my style. Fortunately, thus hat was not gifted to me but to my baby. As you can see, the dot of the “i” is in the wrong place. I do not know whether this is a case of someone not knowing how to write cursive or an accident by a graphic designer. Surprisingly, this hat may…
