  parents be more responsibly green. I can’t say I’ve been a runaway success with that, but it hasn’t been a failure. That being said, I wanted to point out a great discussion over at DaddyTypes about reponsible toy makers.

  to all the Getting Ready For Baby changes. This weekend, I spent several hours both days painting her Big Girl Room. Man, I hate painting. I will say that I did a fairly good job this time with taping and with edging along the ceiling. Don’t buy those edger things with the rollers. I tried that.

  or at least more “green” alternative. That is why I was excited to read about these Wee Go bottles by BabyLife (thanks, Babble!). These glass bottles are bisphenol A-free. The bottles, rings, nipples, and sleeves also contain no phthalate, PVC or polycarbonates. They are dishwasher and boiling safe, and are also recyclable! The

  Manufactured by GreenToGrow, these bottles are Bisphenol-A and Phthalate free. And they look friggin’ awesome. They are a bit pricey ($7.49 for a 5 oz, up to $10.49 for a 10 oz, wide neck bottle), but they, well, look pretty awesome. Oh, and the whole “not full of bad stuff” is pretty awesome, too. And the website

Went through and tried to make sure all our daughter’s sippy cups were “clean” and all. Then, the other day, we realized that, when we made a new batch of formula for the
