The fact that there is a Target in Brooklyn certainly isn’t news to anyone, but I often forget to check it out when it comes to Cameron. I went recently and was happy with all of the great stuff I found.

Bubbles, sidewalk chalk, and more!
On the second floor in the toy area, there is practically an entire aisle of bubbles. The ones I ended up are a real hit at the playground – children follow me around like the pied piper, and parents ask me where I got them. You can also pick up sidewalk chalk (50 pieces for $3.99!)
I was also able to find some great sandals and summer shoes for around 10$ each. Cameron loves them so much he refuses to wear any other shoes – so I bought him a pair in the next size up as well. The toddler / baby shoes are on the first floor with the rest of the shoes. There is a “boy” and “girl” isle – I didn’t realize this at first, and I kept wondering why there were only girls shoes! It was a blond moment!
Currently in the kids department there are also swimming trunks, sun hats, and protective sun shirts (rash guards). I got Cameron his swimming gear for our upcoming vacation at a great price.
So if you are in need of summer supplies, drop into Target and pick up a few things.

Etsy was my go to spot for Cameron’s winter hats this year – and he got so many compliments! It’s nice to have a hat that is a little unique I think. So, with the weather turning to spring (thank goodness) it’s time to start thinking sun protection for our little ones – which means a nice sun hat! Of course, I thought of Etsy again. Here’s a few that I found – but there are lots more. I’m sure you can find the perfect sun hat for your little one.
These first two come from the worthygoods shop (FYI, I liked pretty much every one of their hats!):

This hat is reversible - I am loving both sides

A less traditional sun hat - but I love the attitude
And now something for the ladies – these come from the blissfulmoments shop:

perfectly pink and adorable

I am a sucker for an orange flower
And now back to the boys:

This one is also reversible - more planes on the inside

This baby is ready for a 4th of July BBQ
Don’t see one you like, or want to check out more options? Then take a look at this search for “baby sun hat” on Etsy.
A week ago I took Cameron on a trip to Fairway, and tragedy struck – we lost his super cute Car hat I had bought from Etsy. Sad as I am, the upside is that now I get to go hunting for a new winter hat for my little one. The other Etsy posts I’ve done have been so popular, so I decided to share some of the new cute baby hats that I found while on my quest to replace Cameron’s lost hat. Click on the image to view the page in Etsy.

This monster hat is made by the same person who made Cam's Car hat. Great quality, and super cute!

I just love the delicate flowers on this baby girl hat

This one is sure to make people smile

I'm a sucker for anything involving kitty cats!

I think this one is so adorable - and fleece lined!

Keeping your little girl's ears nice and warm.... and adorable too, of course
By the way, one of the great things about shopping on Etsy is that the items are hand made. Often I find that the sellers are willing to work with you regarding small changes and sizing so you can be sure to get the perfect item for your baby. Happy shopping!
Holy Moly it’s cold out! I have to admit this weather crept up on me and I haven’t really gotten Cameron outfitted for the winter. So today I decided to check out Etsy.com to see what I could find in the way of unique and cute winter hats for my little one. Here’s a small sample of the ones I like (including some super cute girl ones too!):

Ava

baby bear beanie

Flapper Green and Purple

Electric Blue Bird Hat

Mr Alligator
Each image links to the item page on Etsy.com These hats range in price from $9.50-$25 – not bad for hand made items! I just typed “baby hat for winter” into the search box – so if none of these are your cup of tea, check out the rest of the selection to find the perfect hat to keep your baby nice and cozy. Also, check out Chic Squirt for Celia’s Cute Winter Hat Round Up.

Loving the new hat!
Update: I bought the Baby Bear Beanie for Cameron (I think I got the last one!) and he has been rocking it at the playground to much fanfare and compliment! I changed the link on that image to go to the shop that made the Bear Beanie – they have some other cute items as well that are worth a look.
