I so could have used one of these for my son on our last cross-country flight!

Not your standard, run-of-the-mill sleep mask, this is actually a soft, organic (not to mention supercute) hat, which makes it functional even when baby is awake. When nap time rolls around, simply flip down the brim of the hat and voila! - instant (and safe) sleep mask. Obviously this is especially useful on airplanes, although I can think of many more places it would definitely come in handy…(car trips, restaurants, out and about in the stroller, pretty much any naps away from home).

It’s made of 100% organic pima cotton (=super soft) and comes in Natural, Magenta, or Blue in sizes up to 18 months. You can find instructions, safety info, and more details at Mom4Life.com

After my son was born, it didn’t take me long to learn to

1. Hate the dreaded diaper bag
   
2. Discover the joys of a diaper clutch

So I purchased one of those more spendy diaper and wipes holders. And I loved it. Still use it to this day, as a matter of fact. Which is a good thing since it cost me an arm and a leg.

With my daughter due to arrive in a couple of months, I decided it was time to purchase a new diaper clutch with a more, how should I say, feminine motif. This time around, I discovered that cool clutches don’t have to take a huge bite out of your budget.

This time I fell for The Diaper Clutch, which has the wipes holder built right in — way cool. It holds two to four diapers plus a changing pad and is still small enough to throw in my purse. It comes in a variety of hip fabrics and the best part? It retails for only around $23.00, which is half of what I paid for my son’s diaper holder.

Better yet, The Diaper Clutch can be purchased through Mom4Life, one of our favorite online retailers. Not only do they feature products by small mom-entrepreneurs (support your fellow moms!), but they also always offer FREE domestic shipping. We’re all about the free shipping!
