Swarmed with bottle brand options and not sure which route to go? Whether it's your first child or your sequel, choosing the right bottle for baby can be tough. Why are they all so different? And so many varieties? And brands? Did every company out there feel that they needed to get into the baby bottle game? Now I'm not here to give you a definitive answer, just advise. Why care what I have to say? What's so special about my take on all of these bottles? I'm just another mom, right? Kind of. I also worked for 3 years in the infant room at a local daycare (half of that was as the lead teacher) so I've seen and used PLENTY of bottles. I haven't used all of the bottles on this list but I have used most of them and have formed an opinion on those brands from that usage. Remember, this is not a complete list. I have missed A LOT of bottles here. There are so many varieties out there, but a lot of them use the same principles. Based on this, I have broken these bottl

Note SPOILERS! If you're interested in watching this kids show for it's content like me, don't read on. I even tried to write around the spoilers and still gave a lot of the storyline away. Boss Baby: Back in Business I can't begin to tell you how much I love this show. After watching all 3 seasons of the Netflix series probably 2 dozen times, you'd think I'd be thoroughly over it. But every time we re-watch it, I notice even more hilarious, veiled-adult humor that I had missed the previous umpteen times and my 3-year-old is still happy to re-watch it!
