As most of you have read and heard, I am working on Potty Training Isabella right now. It has seriously been the most difficult thing I have experienced as a parent thus far. Recently, I was one of the lucky bloggers asked to join a conference call to talk about Potty Training. Jen Singer, Potty Training Expert (blogger at Mamasaid.net) and Ralph Covert (Grammy nominated musician and founder of Ralph’s World) the man responsible for the “New” and improved version of the Potty Dance, were on the call to answer our questions and give tips about Potty Training our little ones. It was a great call and I was honored to be on it! If your looking for Potty Training tips, take a look at Jen’s books. While on the call and asking questions, I actually said, I’m second guessing myself. She was like “Tara, Maybe you need to get my book, Stop second guessing yourself”. I just laughed out loud and agreed! I want to give a special thanks to Jen and Ralph for all the great tips and Pull-Ups for inviting me to be on the call. Take a look Isabella and I doing the Potty Dance :p If your a parent who is Potty Training have questions, visit the Q & A message boards Forums. Submit your question and get a answer! You can also meet the experts and browse through the expert advice to try and find your answers. Take a look below at Isabella and I doing the Potty Dance. What a Blast! lol

I have used this product since day 1 of Isabella being born! Munchkin Deluxe Bottle Brush has been a necessity when cleaning Isabella’s bottles and now cups. It has been suctioned to my sink next to the soap for 2 years now :p I use it about 4 or 5 times a day so I would say it’s a necessity! This product has two brushes all in one. The nipple brush stores inside the bottom of the brush and the suction cup sits upright making drying easy and no wet counter tops! Brushes come in a variety of color for all gender’s! Munchkin Deluxe Bottle Brush is sealed with Approval by Baby-Momma Blog!
** Note: Moms who breastfeed this is good for you too. I breastfed Isabella for 8-9 months and always used a bottle when on the go. This will be a necessity when you get home and need to clean that bottle.

This Winter I signed Isabella up for The Music Class in Philadelphia and she LOVES it! This year we were hammered with snow so this indoor activity was perfect for the winter months. The Music Class is an early childhood music education company designed to unleash the musical potential of young children. Featuring award winning music, engaging activities, CD’s, teacher training and curricula, they are proud of the high standard they set in the field of early childhood music education. Research shows that early childhood is the window of opportunity to increase the lifelong music aptitude of a child. The Music Class provided several programs that capitalize on this critical time period. Classes are available for children the from ages birth-7 years and all glasses are in a fun group setting of up to eight families.
The first day of class we were provided a CD with all the songs (so we can learn to sing along in class) and a music book with all the words. Isabella was really skeptical during her first class but now she sings, plays and dances along to the music. At the end of the class our teacher sings a song, “I’m so Happy I saw (then whoever was in the class)”. Today Isabella kept singing (in her own jibber jabber) and the only word I could understand Happy, Happy! lol I just laughed then started to sing along with her. We will be sure to sign up for the classes again and again! She loves it! Take a look here for a location near you!
