Hi!

I wanted to do a special post for Mother's Day. I've thought a lot about this, had various ideas, but decided that since Nora is my first baby and it's been 30 years since my mom was a first time mom that it might be fun to sit down with her and talk about the differences in products and practices! It's something that we talk about often enough in our daily conversation, but as a blogger, "journalling" my experiences is a passion - so here we are!

This week I sat down with my mom and we talked about the differences and similarities to raising babies then and now. I also showed my mom some modern baby products that I got from Hip Kids (hipkids.ca) and got her reaction to the products! Some things have changed a lot, and some things haven't changed at all!

Hope you enjoy our video! Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there!

Know a modern Mama or soon-to-be Mama? Consider one of the modern products that we featured (all links below) as a Mother's Day gift!
