I recently ran into Cole Haan to pick up a pair of black patent wedges that were to become my Fall shoe of choice when the cutest lil thing caught my eye. In honor of their 80th anniversary, the company has come out with a line of crib shoe penny loafers ($50). The four designs are perfectly suited for prepsters in the making with classic black and brown versions, as well as red or brown suede ones too. Securing these as my new obsession are the soles of the shoes that are imprinted with "Pennies from Heaven."
We're in luck though — we don't just have to dream about the company supersizing these lil darlings, the crib shoe collection is a shrunken version of Cole Haan's classic shoes. So the originals are available in mommy sizes.

Babies can be wiggly lil ones, can't they? Feeding a babe is never a simple task and when they start sliding down the chair, you are facing an uphill battle to keep them propped up. A New Jersey couple developed a line of baby clothes called Stickee Buns. The soft cotton onesie and pant sets ($40) come with built-in traction in the form of little Cinnabons on the tush and back. The buns are designed to keep your lil one in place - be it in a high chair, a swing or a car seat. What's your opinion of this invention?

I don't like giving my three and four-year-old daughters candy. We've never gone trick-or-treating for this reason. But, this year all the families in our cul-de-sac are throwing an outdoor party since the holiday lands on a Friday. There will be food, games, face painting and to my chagrin, each house will be handing out candy. My husband is all for the festivities and thinks I'm taking the fun out of everything. Should I let my girls trick-or-treat and confiscate the candy or not allow them to participate at all?
