the little tea pot

I found this interesting product at Healthy Options especially made for children 12 years and below. A European herbal tea concocted from chamomile and linden tree blossoms that said to have relaxing and calming effects on kids who have a hard time sleeping at night or those who just need to relax during the day. 100% organic, caffeine free and no artificial sweetening. Good stuff! I was about to reach for it along with the arrowroot biscuit when I realized my Hamy's barely 2 years old and doesn't seem to have trouble sleeping. Oh well, maybe it may come handy someday with Dr. Vienne's approval of course.

the volo

Last weekend, we go pram shopping at MOA as a post-birthday gift to our little Hamy. We wanted an umbrella type that's lightweight, easy to fold away for transport and of course durable. One that will grow with her and be around for years. With these in mind, we found a perfect stroller... the Maclaren Volo.

With a 55 lb capacity, Hamy can happily use it for a long, long time. It's very compact and easy to fold and unfold, too. Oh and hallelujah to the easy to clean mesh seat... she pooped on her very first ride! Haha! No sweat we just wiped it clean. It also came with a raincover. Coolness!

But it's not an object of perfection. For one, it doesn't recline which is not really a biggie since she doesn't sleep that much in the stroller. The harness is hard to unbuckle (very hard for mommy!) and it has no cup holder. Despite the drawbacks my baby's loving it! We were actually eyeing the Scarlet pram but it was out of stock so we decided to get the Coffee Stripe instead. The colors give it a distinct look (red is everywhere!). So french!
