Hot Gift Alert...Pacimals!

Pacimals™ were created by Monica Williams, a doctor and a first-time mom. Baby Mackenzie loved her pacifier, but didn’t have the coordination to hold it on her own — leading to frustration, and tears. The idea of Pacimals dawned when Monica realized Mackenzie needed something larger to hold that would help her keep her pacifier in her mouth. Monica used a few of Mackenzie's toys to make the first adaptation, her homemade version of Pacimals worked like a charm, helping Mackenzie comfort herself during the day and more importantly, throughout the night.

We love Pacimals and so do our customers!

♥ unique – the patent-pending joint provides a safe and secure attachment that is tight enough for little fingers, but not too tight for Grandma’s fingers

♥ calming – Pacimals® patent-pending joint connects a medical-grade silicone pacifier to a light-weight plush toy making it easy for young infants to hold

♥ simplifies mom's life – this joint keeps everything together and easy to find, keep-up with, and clean

♥ easy to clean – snap-off the Paci™ and toss it into the dishwasher and the toy into the washing machine to keep them both clean

♥ positioning for young infants – Pacimals® was designed to help position your baby’s pacifier before she/he is old enough to control it them selves

♥ boosts motor skills – as babies learn to hold and control their Pacimal® it encourages motor skill development, often at a much younger age. The embroidered tag also add an extra stimulation for baby’s tiny fingers.

♥ car safety – Pacimals® are great for positioning your baby’s pacifier in a rear-facing car seat, reducing the hazard of reaching behind the driver’s seat to retrieve a dropped pacifier

♥ superb design – all of the Pacimals® characters are 9 inches long and about 35 grams in weight, anatomically sized for a newborn and light enough for them to control. The Paci is made in the USA of medical-grade silicone and the natural shape is designed to help breast-feeding babies develop the needed muscles

♥ your baby's first toy – when it’s time to wean your baby from his/her pacifier, the stuffed toy will remain as a source of comfort

♥ makes a GREAT gift – as a unique thoughtful tool for a new mommy that is super cute and beautifully packaged

New Product Alert...Wes & Willy!

With the arrival of Spring and Summer clothing, are newest line is the one that really excites us! Bringing a vintage and cool feel, while still remaining youthful - Wes & Willy t-shirts are the perfect addition to your toddler's wardrobe!

Wes and Willy has a simple philosophy.

They believe that fashionable, good looking boys clothing should be made to last for the kids that outgrow them.

Kids today are on-the-go, just like their parents. Whether it's Mom in the van to soccer practice, or Dad with the daycare carpool, our children are as busy as the rest of America. So with families in mind, they created durable classic clothing with a casual lived-in feel. Rugged enough for those keep-away games at recess, but comfortable enough for a brother to sit through his sister's dance recital. Clothing that kids will want to wear all day.

This classic lived-in feel, built into all their clothing is achieved through garment dyeing and garment washing. The process pre-shrinks each pant and shirt, while producing unique variations in texture, color and shading, adding to the character, originality, and comfort of every Wes and Willy garment.

Since 1989 Wes and Willy has stayed true to its beginnings: Bringing quality updated clothing to boys everywhere.

New Product Alert...Goodnight Sleeper!

We always love when we find new and innovative products. 4Moms is a company started by electrical and mechanical engineers who knew they could help mom's. They sought the advice and council of four mothers and 4Moms was born! We love all of their products...from a tub that constantly cycles in fresh water (we all know that babies love to pee in their bath!) to a stroller that folds by itself (coming late 2009). This company is fresh and new and their prices can't be beat!

Their newest product, the Sleep Trainer - is a registry must!

Goodnight Sleep Trainer
Train your 3+ month old to sleep through the night

Sleep experts have written dozens of books that detail proven methods to help your child sleep through the night, but lets face it, it’s not easy to remember the details of a book you read when it’s 4am and your baby is crying. That’s why we worked closely with a pediatrician to take these same proven methods and put them into a simple to use electronic device.

By gradually increasing the time parents let their children cry it out, the children learn to soothe themselves to sleep while still getting parental support that is key to good child development. Plus you can connect the goodnight sleep trainer to the web to track sleep patterns online and compare against statistical norms.

Runs on 3 AA batteries. In stock now!

Using a baby sling...love 'em or hate 'em!

It's the great debate for mom's everywhere - is a sling worth it? We find that mothers either swear by them or hate them. Over the past 2 years there is one main thing that sets one camp from the other - being shown how to use them. Once shown and with a little bit of practice, we're sure you'll love your sling too!

I won't lie...when I first put my sling on I was in the "not so sure about this" group. I hadn't gotten guidance when purchasing my sling and I had bought the wrong size. Once I settled this and I had the salesperson show me how it should fit, I felt a ton more comfortable. No more worrying my baby was going to fall out! Sizing is definitely the most important thing when it comes to a sling. Then you'll need to master the fold and off you go!

At Shower Me With Love, we think every mom will love her Hotsling!

Pink Zone = Best Fit

1. First, if you are still pregnant, there should be some room in the pouch between your belly and the outer rail. You should be able to open it a few inches.

2. Second, if you put your baby in the sling and it feels too tight, you need a larger size.

3. Third, the bottom of the pouch should still be somewhere near your navel. If it is much lower than this, you will need a size smaller.
