Clippy Not Slippy

My first child is on her way and while I still have a lot to learn, one thing I've already got down pat is how not to experience a repeat of The Slippy Blanket Stroller Incident that occurred while I was walking with my infant niece. Let’s just say that when a blanket slides off a stroller and gets caught in the wheels, it’s not pretty.

Thanks to Amy Long, the owner and creator of the ingenious Secure2Me Blanket, I don’t have to ever worry about losing my daughter’s blanket--or capsizing her stroller. These luxurious and stylish blankets come with finger-friendly, fabric safe clips on each corner that secure it to any and all baby gear--including yourself. Just fasten it to your clothes for an ample nursing cover-up.

They're way affordable at around $40, and with a variety of terrific patterns from a summery madras plaid to an Asian brocade, to cuddly minkie fabrics--you may just want a different one for every season.

I mean, if it’s going to be a nursing cover-up, it has to match your outfit, right? Yep, that's one more thing I've learned so far.  -Tina
