Gymini 3-D Activity Gym


Written on: 3/7/2009 by HikaruNoOkaasan
Quote Since tummytime was such a challenge for us, it was nice to have this pad for him to lie on to get comfy with the idea of tummytime. By now we are a pro at tummytime, thank you very much, but this pad/gymini is a continued source of fun and amazement with the toys that hang overhead.

Quote Previous review has it right.. these are classic, BPA free, they do not leak, and you can 'upgrade' the nipples to higher flow as your little one gets bigger... how basic is that? Love that they are BPA free, and they're not expensive but they do the job, and are well designed (in our opinion.)

Quote I'm glad we did not invest in too many of these. Those these seem to be the hippest bottles on the market, our little one did not take to these. There was something about the flow of the nipple that did not work for us. We tried the drop in type, which, for a smaller infant is not so useful since it just creates more work to have to push up the cup to create that 'seal' for the drop in function to really work since the cups are harder plastic. BPA free is nice, but the design is lacking

Olive Garden

Quote The staff were so nice and accomodating of us and the baby in the stroller on a weekend... we were seated within 20 minutes and we had a relaxing early dinner with baby at our side. After 4 months of not eating out together, it was a nice relief to go somewhere where we wouldn't feel stressed out about people around us critisizing us for bring in a baby in a stroller... cuz there was plenty of room! Service was pretty darn slow, however... it took 10-15 min to get our drinks.. another 10 to get our soup.. it was just making us a little nervous b/c we had baby in tow.. but baby was being sooo good, it did not matter.

Babystyle

Quote Babystyle and its parent corporation are no longer in business, and this Burlingame location closed at the end of February 2009.

Old Navy

21 W Hillsdale Blvd, San Mateo, CA, 94403

Quote Considering the fact that the wardrobe-life on maternity clothes SHOULD be less than an entire year, Old Navy maternity fits the bill. Their deals on baby onesies and basics are hard to beat! We did some custom-made onesies using their basic white onesies, which was a fun project. Selection here is good, the shop itself is clean and well organized. Worth it if you are not going to shop in the city for $125 maternity jeans that will last you 5 months of your entire life.

Arizmendi Bakery

Quote Scones, pizza, breads... they have it all and they have it good! I adore their daily pizza specials, and their scones are the best in the land. Get there early enough for their pizzas, though- they can sell out! Such a wonderful, down-to-earth bakery. LOVE it!

Citikids Baby News Store

Quote Every time I go in, I feel as if i have to pull teeth to get attention or have someone answer a question for me. The ladies up front seem to be chatting away for one reason or another, and I don't get it. I continue to stop in since it is convenient, this time to look for a second stroller (our first stroller we got elsewhere b/c of the lack of salespeople the first time around.) Although the store was relatively empty, the salespeople were chatting away, oblivious to my presence, so I ended up ordering elsewhere. They have a great selection (however, it's in a bit of disarray) and they do deliver within SF. But every time I go in, I am disappointed at the lack of attention. I was also disappointed to learn that this shop vehemently opposed the ban on BPA when it was first proposed. You would think that a shop like this would have its priorities straight. Banning BPA is not that big of a dent on the bottom line.

Joe's Ice Cream

5351 Geary Blvd, San Francisco, CA, 94102
Written on: 3/5/2009 by HikaruNoOkaasan
Quote Homemade, fresh, wonderfully tasty assortment of flavors.. Joes is still the best ice cream in town! Green tea, Pumpkin all year, raspberry or blueberry cheesecake... try them, one or all! Service with a smile and you're supporting the best local business on Geary.

Quote This was our first baby, so it was wonderful to have Dr Wright with us from the get-go. She was very patient, calm, and informative to us, and I'm glad to read here that she is 'conservative'! That's the way we want it for our baby, as well. We are very happy to have found Dr. Wright!
