Nomie Baby makes Spring Cleaning & Sprucing Up a Snap with Car Seat Cover Change

It's been a long cold winter, which also means a lot of time spent in the car driving around doing errands, and probably snacking from place to place. To get in and out of the car as quickly as possible, out of the cold and into the warmth, usually cleaning up gets left for later. Well it's finally later with spring right around the corner, and we all know what that means - spring cleaning!

The idea of tackling the mess can be overwhelming, especially after the winter we've had. Cheerios crushed in every seam, smashed raisins, dried juice, and that's probably just a start. Now sprucing up for spring is a snap! A nomie baby car seat cover is your answer to giving your child's car seat cover a fresh clean start for spring. If you are like most people, once you have decided to cleanup, you want it to fast, easy and preferably happen right now. There are many stores that sell the nomie baby car seat covers that can often get you your order in a day or two. Cleaning up is hassle-free!

Keeping Dad's Hands Warm When Strolling is A Snap

In this weather, no matter how big and strong you think you are, pushing a stroller will make your hands freeze, crack and just pain hurt. The idea of staying inside for days on end is tantamount to torture for most, and especially normally active Dads. Now getting out and running (or strolling) around is easy and you don't have to worry about frostbitten fingers.

The nomie baby strittens - stroller handle mittens - are the answer, and have even been compared to hand warmers for motorcycles. These stroller handle warmers slip onto the stroller handles of every type of stroller (there goes another excuse), and the wind resistant outer layer paired with the warm fleece lining, keeps hands warm even in this arctic weather! So go ahead, pack on the layers, zip the little one up in a 'cozy-up' stroller blanket and rid yourself of cabin fever. Winter just got a little warmer!

Personalizing Nomie Baby Car Seat Covers Now Carried at Simple Stitch

I remember opening my first baby gift with my son's name on it, and thought, "Wow, it's really real!" It was another moment that made me realize that it was for keeps, and what a great feeling that was. Personalizing a baby gift, or any gift for that matter, is a great way to make something very plain into something special that shows you care and put thought into it. After all, there is nothing that exciting about bibs, but ones with your child's name and a little design are unique!

Nomie baby, has recently added Simple Stitch to it's family of stores, so now when you are sending a nomie baby car seat cover to your friend, or giving them one with the car seat you are also passing along, you can add the child's name, or a little design to make the gift and thought that much more personal. A toddler or infant car seat cover is the perfect must-have accessory for making parent's lives (or at least cleanups) easier, and the personalizing is the icing on the cake. Simple Stitch has so many different designs and colors to chose from, that your biggest problem might be picking!

Here's to spreading the happy-mess in your own personal way!

Perfect stroller accessories in cold weather

The term we often hear is accessorize! In fact, on Sesame Street, that was the word of the day, really! The fashionistas all tell us that the best way to update an outfit without spending a fortune is to accessorize. By simply adding a belt, necklace or scarf we can up date out an entire outfit and look, and still have money left over to go out and show it off!

Accessorizing our baby gear is also a great way to bring it up to date with the season. By adding just a few key items, we can winterize our little one's stroller! For example we can put the the sun shade away and replace it with a wind and rain shield, and a nomie baby 'cozy-up' stroller blanket can quickly turn the open air ride into a warm, cozy and wind-protected one. Finally, by adding one last stroller accessory, strittens, to the handles, we are able to treat ourselves to toasty warm hands in a snap. Stroller accessories not only make it easy, but pleasant to go from one season to the next without spending a fortune! So have fun accessorizing, AND going out!

Getting out with baby: stroller blankets are great

Very often, having a baby during the cold, snowy months can be isolating. The idea of bundling up and braving the cold can be overwhelming, but staying inside for months on end waiting for the thaw can be unbearable. There are many great products out there to make getting out and about not just possible, but pleasant.

Remember, newborns need to be kept extra cozy and warm, so a good rule of thumb is to dress them in 1 extra layer than you have on, and always keep their head covered. Our mothers were right, and now that we are mothers we can keep passing along the message, that keeping your head warm does wonders in keeping all of you warm! There are also terrific stroller blankets that add an extra layer of warmth. The nomie baby 'cozy-up' stroller blanket is perfect for making getting out possible! It has a wind resistant outer layer, and a super warm and cozy fleece lining to keep your little one snug and toasty!

Enjoy getting out and about, going for a stroll and getting some exercise with your little one even when it's still freezing outside.
