A friend of mine has a son who is about to move out of his crib and into a bed. To get him excited about the move, she began showing him pictures of "big boy beds" in catalogs. To her chagrin, he took to a rather wild bedding print that she never would have picked. He now tells everyone that his bed will feature these crazy sheets and she is researching quilts that will keep them undercover throughout the day.
Did you let your tots pick out their own bedding and room decor?

Changes are happening in the White House and on its website. One example that may have parents breathing a sigh of relief is President Obama and Vice President Biden's agenda on disabilities. The new administration says it is "committed to supporting Americans with Autism Spectrum Disorders (“ASD”), their families, and their communities." Then it lists the specifics. It reads:
* First, President Obama and Vice President Biden support increased funding for autism research, treatment, screenings, public awareness, and support services. There must be research of the treatments for, and the causes of, ASD.
* Second, President Obama and Vice President Biden support improving life-long services for people with ASD for treatments, interventions and services for both children and adults with ASD.
* Third, President Obama and Vice President Biden support funding the Combating Autism Act and working with Congress, parents and ASD experts to determine how to further improve federal and state programs for ASD.
* Fourth, President Obama and Vice President Biden support universal screening of all infants and re-screening for all two-year-olds, the age at which some conditions, including ASD, begin to appear. These screenings will be safe and secure, and available for every American that wants them. Screening is essential so that disabilities can be identified early enough for those children and families to get the supports and services they need.
If you've got a wee one that is enthused about our newest president, Barack Obama, then let him wear his or her pride in the form of a soft genOtee onesie or tee that proudly exclaims, "I am Generation O." The darling duds are the brainchild of a mama who is cashing in on the Obama craze after she made one for her baby in a moment of inspiration on election night. Fellow parents kept asking her where to buy them so she made selling them her business. The soft cotton garments say "CHANGE" on the back and are priced at $18 - $20. If you're a parent that is into family dressing, pick up the line's adult shirt ($15) for yourself!
As you know, we are big fans of the modern, colorful prints that come out of DwellStudio. Their designs have translated into beautiful birth announcements, nursery designs, crib bedding and clothing, including a budget-friendly line made especially at Target. So it is no surprise that have teamed up with the retailer once again as they move into the world of baby gear. DwellStudio has joined forces with Fisher Price, for a collection to be sold exclusively at Target. Brighter and more sleek than the baby manufacturer's previous foray into the world of modern design, the Fisher Price DwellStudio collection includes modern-looking pieces with fabrics featuring cool teal, brown and tan patterns that should complement the contemporary furniture found in many homes. To see the entire collection, click through our slideshow.
