Don’t you just love when you can throw on one fabulous accessory that really makes a statement? Something that draws the oohs, ahhs & questions about its origin {as in, “Where did you get that necklace? I simply must have one!”} like no other. And when that special something is practical too, well friends, life doesn’t get a whole lot better than that! That is exactly how I feel about my gorgeous new necklace from Momma’s Jewels ! I was very lucky to receive a sample of their gorgeous one-ring sterling silver necklace , for review. As you know by now, we here at BabyElan {especially myself} are real suckers for practical baby products! But after testing out products and writing for nearly 3 years, we’ve also become slightly partial to what we do and don’t find to be practical AND luxurious! Well, Momma’s Jewels certainly fits the bill in our book! Wear it to look gorgeous while letting your sweet little cherub suck on it for soothing teething relief! This is no flimsy plastic necklace ladies. This is a real “push present” if I have ever seen one! The benefits of a Momma’s Jewels necklace are great. Because it is made from 100% sterling silver, it is safe for baby to suck on and play with, and it is easy to clean. The cool silver soothes baby’s gums while teething. It has an endless chain, so there are no loose pieces for baby to accidentally get a hold of. The rings are hollow, which makes wearing the necklace that much more enjoyable; it’s light and refreshing! So there you go, it’s completely obvious that a lot of care and attention to detail went into the design of this collection

Courtesy Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves There were no last-minute lists and baby name books lying around the hospital when Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves welcomed their daughter Vida in January — the couple had already chosen a moniker long before they discovered they were expecting. “It was the only name that we had for a girl even before [we had our son] Levi . We had many male names but we only had Vida,” Matthew tells Jay Leno of their choice, which means life in both Portuguese and Spanish

We cannot, cannot decide on a name and the baby (boy) will be here in less than a month. At first we enjoyed coming up with ideas and looking at name books , but now that it’s so close, all of the names just feel wrong or weird. What am I going to do

I have never seen a more unique and cool concept as this, my friends! There is a lot of jewelry out there for moms; jewelry that represents our family. And of course – we all love donning symbols of our children! Womily brings us something utterly different and unbelievably “touching”! Introducing Womily’s signature product, the “Touch” line. This lovely pendant is the fingerprints of two children. It is made from a wax mold of childrens’ fingerprints. It totally puts a new spin on your children leaving their fingerprints everywhere! These are prints that can be worn close to your heart for all eternity. Single Print When my kit arrived in the mail, included was a plastic egg inside a brown box, which contained a small piece of wax, a brass tool (in which to put the wax) and very simple, detailed instructions (the packaging of the kit is so great, I had to mention it). I gathered my girls and got to work! I was able to very easily create prints in the wax, ensure it was cooled and send it back. Within a short time, I had my beautiful necklace.

Name recognition is everything when you’re a celebrity, and it’s something many celebrity parents appear to be mindful of when it comes to naming their babies. Perhaps it’s because they’re so at ease in the spotlight or perhaps it’s because they’re eager to set their child apart — but no matter what the motivation, celebrities are clearly on board with unique names. Pamela Redmond-Satran , co-founder of nameberry.com , concedes that “unique celebrity baby names are more normal in Hollywood and New York than they may be in the rest of the country.” She goes on to note, however, “When your friends are named Shiloh and Suri and Kingston, it’s unlikely that having a unique name will make you stand out in anything but a positive way.” INF; Ramey; KCSPresse/Splash News Online Click below to read the column! There are an unlimited ways in which a celebrity mom or dad can arrive at an unusual baby name, and Pamela says that exotic sources are a popular place to start
