Before I was a parent, I never knew what to do for baby showers or kids birthdays. I still have a hard time figuring out older kids--but I have witnessed what works for babes and toddlers. One brand stands out for us is Melissa & Doug. If you have a toddler coming over, a M&D toy is a sure fire hit. Here are a few of our favorites from the brand.

One more cup of coffee for the road
You knew this was coming, right? A blog with caffeine in the title is going to have a post on coffee makers. I am not picky about how my coffee is made... I don't own a french press or one of those fancy drip coffee makers. I wouldn't mind someone else making that coffee, especially if they are sharing! But I just don't have the time.
