What I am Liking Now: Evenflo Glass Bottles

I have been through so many different bottles since little Z was born. I can't even tell you how many different brands I have tried. I guess I was always just curious to see if I could find a bottle that was better than whichever one I was currently using. I always had a problem with each bottle brand until I stumbled across Evenflo's glass bottles. So simple, so plain and so old school. Who would have thought I would actually like this? Their are NO fancy tubes, nipples, caps etc etc..The packaging even screams bland, boring and granny. However, these bottles ARE the best bottles I have used thus far and I now exclusively use Evenflo glass bottles in the classic style.

Why you ask?

• Super easy to clean and always look brand new.
• Never get that weird cloudy/old look that plastic bottles get.
• Eliminated about 95% of the gas/air problems with were having with all the fancy schmancy bottles.
• Inexpensive. Like seriously inexpensive. Check them out on Amazon or in your local Target.
• BPA free which is always a plus.
• Saves on buying plastic which aids you in becoming a green mommy!

Trust me I was reluctant to buy these but thought what the heck I might as well give them a shot. Surprisingly I haven't broke one yet which is the one con I can think of with having glass bottles instead of plastic. I have already purchased the 8 ounce size and have stored my 4 ounce sized ones away for baby #2 one day. I will never again repurchase a plastic bottle.

Have you tried a glass bottle before? What are your thoughts on them?

Mommy Review: Dr Browns Spoons

I love these Dr. Brown's Designed To Nourish Long Spatula Spoons so much I just had to share it with you all. When I first spotted them while shopping for baby spoons I thought they were the weirdest looking things ever. Not to mention that the word "gimmicky" was crossing my mind as well. Something strange possessed me to buy them instead of the traditional looking Gerber baby spoons and then me and these spoons fell in love.

• The spatula edge makes for easy peasy wiping of excess food that is always all around my daughters mouth.
• The long handle has a awesome grip and really does reach every nook and cranny of your baby food jar and/or cleans out that baby food bowl easily.
• Don't be fooled by the large looking appearance of the mouth part, it really isn't. My daughter has a smaller sized mouth and these work perfectly for her.
• BPA free...always a plus
• Comes in 4 pack and are cute. Cuteness counts.

I purchased mine at Buy Buy Baby but I see that Amazon as well ast Babies R Us carries them.

I give these 5 out 5 mommy stars. Have you tried these?

Mommy Review Tuesday : Boon Grass

Behold the Boon Grass Countertop Drying Rack. It's most likely the most modern looking baby item I own and by modern I mean not all cutesy.  This two piece drying rack was so unique to me that I couldn't resist it especially since it isn't big and bulky like other bottle drying racks I have seen out there.

The green "grass" top that you dry your bottles bits and pieces on lifts off so you can empty the tray that catches any water drips. Its compact, simple and sleek. However, it may not work for you if you like to store lots of bottles at once on your drying rack.

I would say you can fit 3-4 bottles and all their inner workings on this tray. It sells for around 14 dollars in most baby stores. You may want to check out Amazon to see if you can find a better deal there. For more specs on this bad boy check it out on the Boon website.

Overall, I am happy with my Boon drying rack as I only use a few bottles at at time. After they dry I put them away in the cupboard. If you like to leave yours out on the drying rack ( you know how those things easily become storage units as well ) then this may be too small to hold your entire bottle supply.

Which rack do you use?
