We are dreaming of summer already with the recent warm weather that has hit Philadelphia – 65 in February is crazy!
With a mid-winter vacation to Florida and Spring Break quickly approaching I’ve been stocking up on fashionable and innocent finds finds for my 6 year old Kenzie’s and 4 year old Kyle’s summer ”swimsuit” wardrobe. I love the youthful yet trendy picks from Crazy8 – the less expensive but equally adorable sister store to Gymboree. Here’s a few of the finds we’ve purchased and or coveted as we prep for the upcoming season. Kids grow fast so nothing from last summer works anymore – the good news is it means we get to go shopping!

Now that I’ve got both a little girl and a little boy, I’ve been on a quest to find hip unisex clothing that ultimately both kids will be able to wear. Colette Kids is the answer. Their modern unisex threads with simple geometric animals are v. cool and will work for both Kenzie and Kyle. For more information, click 
Finally some more organic basics us ordinary Moms – who aren’t part of the Hollywood jet set crowd – can afford to splurge on. Love the yoga pant and tee sets from iKookie. I find comfy and easy outfits like this for Kyle are ideal – as dressing my toddler is a near impossible mission that I somehow tackle at least 2x daily. ikookie clothes are extremely soft and i love how they named their colors: banana, marshmallow, and blush!

Do you know someone who has a fussy baby? Or do YOU have the honor of being the parent of a ‘spirited’ baby? Somehow a ‘mommy’s little sweetpea’ onesie just doesn’t always seem like the best fit.Fussy Baby onesies offer a little comic relief to sleep-deprived parents, with slogans like,"All the cool kids have colic""Sleep is for the weak", and"I scream, you scream, we all scream because I scream".You won’t find any plain white onesies here. And, these bright, funky onesies are 100% organic – from the garment used through the printing process. Because fussy babies have enough to worry about! For more information, click 
Halloween is a few weeks away and we’ve still not settled on a costume for Kenzie – but this Dorothy costume is in the running. Kenzie has been infatuated with Dorothy, Toto, and the entire Wizard of Oz lore for the past year. She’ll love the ruby red slippers and carrying around a basket with a pretend Toto for the evening – and I love the idea of buying a little Lion costume for Kyle so he can tag along with his big sis in the Wizard of Oz theme.

With the election just around the corner, you’ll dig this hip tee for your little girls – regardless of your party line. If you’re sick and tired of the typical girly tees that label your little one a "princess" or a "diva", then check out the finds at Ava’s Closet which reinforce positive messages on their tees to inspire our little girls to think big. Mackenzie is crazy for princess gear, but is equally stoked to wear her black "president not princess" tee to preschool – and is quick to recite the tagline to everyone we meet – wherever we go! Made of 100% cotton and made in the USA, sizes range from newborn to 6T and are available in red or black. I also love their "doctor not diva" tee. Classy Mommy approved!
