Need Christmas Sleep pants/p.j.'s for Teen Boys! Help!

We have a tradition going and got a late start looking this year and I can't seem to find anything I like. Would appreciate ideas on where I can search. Have tried, etsy, amazon, target, kohl's. Any other ideas? At this point, I'll probably just order online. Thank you!

Cribs, Car Seats, Bob Revolution, Nordic Cab? Ugggg.

Anyone have a car seat, baby jogger, stroller, crib, glass baby bottles, co-sleeper....any product for a new baby.... that they love? I am overwhelmed by the choices. We are looking for excellent quality and as non toxic, as possible. I understand many of the paints, glues are not good for the baby! Organic is great! I was looking at the Bob Revolution baby jogger, and some kind of car seat that would fit into that for the first several months of use. Also, Nordic Cab's Sport Combo jogger. LL Bean shows both. Thanks so much!

We just found out we are pregnant with #3!! A few things I'd like to ask for some advice on are, 1)What types of slings did any of you use that you loved? My 2nd baby and this one are going to be much closer in age, and I didn't find a sling that really worked for me last time! 2)I could also use advice in the nursing dept. I really struggled previously, and took for granted it would eventually just come naturally, it didn't! Websites, books etc? 3) How do I prepare my littlest for the new arrival? He will just be over 2 when the new baby...

Preparing for First Grade

Hi Moms, My son will be starting first grade in September and I'm trying to prepare for it. We home schooled for Grade K because we didn't have public K in our town last year - we live in NH. So this is all new to us. What will my son need to go to school - a backpack, lunch box, pencils, rulers, pens, notebooks? I don't know where to begin. Do 6 year olds need a backpack? What's a good one - something from LL Bean? What kind of lunch boxes work best? Do I supply him with pencils and erasers? Do first graders use pens? What about markers...
