		<title>Top Children&#8217;s Books Ever</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some good ones on here. Oh, that Toad.
Charlotte&#8217;s Web #1. Hard to argue. Did like that Hardy Boys made the list.

		<title>Green Baby Gear + WD-40</title>
		<description><![CDATA[They say that reusing is a better alternative than recycling. I&#8217;ve been a Craig&#8217;s List hound of late. And couldn&#8217;t be more pleased with my recent deal. A third-hand, few-year old Maclaren Techno XT.
We picked up an UppaBaby G-Lite a while back and it&#8217;s not not very good on anything more than a very flat [...]]]></description>

		<title>Organic Baby Food Formulas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been meaning to post our recommendations on formula for some time. Interesting read in the Times this weekend about the cane sugar sweetener in the top-selling brand, Similac Organic. Read the story here. 
We tried a few of the regular and organic brands before reading through the nutritional information and ingredient sources of Baby&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Should you put your baby on a schedule?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[New parents often debate whether to try to put their baby on a schedule or to roll with a more, um, natural style of parenting. As it usually turns out, if there is at all a debate, the answer is usually to go with the schedule. Usually, the on-demand crowd is unaware of the wonders [...]]]></description>

		<title>SIGG Bottle deal on Celebrity Baby Blog</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;ve seen them in the aisles at Whole Foods. You may be seeing them at the gym, the playground, soccer games. Hopefully.
Non-toxic, no waste, no petroleum-based plastics. They are the more stylish and safer successor to the Nalgene.
They make great gifts, too.

		<title>Rules for dining out with young kids</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Great article in the San Francisco Chronicle about the trend of dining out with young kids. I didn&#8217;t realize we were so unoriginal, but we love taking our little guy out to a meal at least once per week. We like exposing him to both new flavors and new environments. He seems to be stimulated. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Robeez Tredz &#8211; The perfect toddler shoe?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We migrated our little bruiser from Robeez infant shoes to the soft-soled Pediped trainers some time ago. And we love the new kicks. They stay on, he gets traction while learning to walk, and they have some style. Now there looks to be another great toddler option. We were delighted to see the Robeez Tredz [...]]]></description>

		<title>Great customer service from Phil&amp;Ted&#8217;s</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A little part on our MeToo portable high chair came off. The piece in question comes in contact with the table that you are latching on to &#8211; looks like a hex nut with a disc on the end. Anyway, fell off and we dropped an email over to Phil &#38; Ted&#8217;s US distributor, Regal [...]]]></description>

		<title>Safe plastic baby bottles and sippy cups</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Z Recommends has a comprehensive directory of baby bottle and sippy cup manufacturers and their use if Bisephenol-A and potentially dangerous chemicals in their plastics. It&#8217;s an incredibly worthwhile read. We threw out all of our Avent bottles after learning about these chemicals &#8211; replacing them with the BornFree bottles and sippy cups. We&#8217;ve also [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sherpani Wahoo &#8211; adjustments</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for the comments below. Unfortunately we never heard back from Sherpani. Perhaps it has something to do with the Wahoo being a remainder product.
Should be apparent, but the yellow clips are the ones that you should use for entry/exit of your bambino. You should be able to leave the other straps adjusted the same [...]]]></description>
