Baby Essential: Disney Baby Walkers
Our exersaucer was probably the most valuable piece of baby gear we had between months 4 and 6 because I could sit him there — right in that little seat — and watch him swat and rattle and completely entertain himself.
LIKE MAGIC.
And these sturdy Safety 1st walkers at Walmart have a world of (Disney) entertainment right on the tray:
Earth-Friendly Disney Baby Toys for Earth Day
Happy Earth Day, you guys. A day to remember our roots, quite literally, and prioritize our planet’s health — after all, it’s the only habitat we have.
And because of that, many new parents feel a more urgent need to make our world, our children’s world, a healthier and cleaner place.

The Three-Month Difference
My nephew just turned three-months old, and it’s like someone flipped the switch from newborn to infant. All of those tell-tale signs of newness — the grunty noises, curled-up body, spastic movements — are slowly fading into a stronger, brighter, more baby-ish baby.
With my own son, I remember very distinct thresholds from one stage to the next — specifically at 3 months, 5 months, 9 months, 15 months, and 18 months. (Did you feel the same?) And it’s fun to watch these new phases roll in and out again. Only this time I remember how fleeting they are.
Here’s a little recap of Benjamin’s new 3-month self:
