I don’t know who to be more scared for–the deer or the girl. Kacee Larson of Iowa has hit 5 deer in the last 12 months. Perhaps she needs to read Ulrike’s blog post on how to react when encountering deer. I do like the part in the article where the police use the phrase [...]
The Graco Nautilus is one of the most popular models for our readers, based on referrals from search engine phrases and sales at our affiliate websites. While we never had a formal review of the original, it is one of our recommended models. Soon, we will be reviewing the updated Nautilus Elite model (currently exclusive to [...]
On our long drive to Lake Minnewaska, my mom said something about DS (5) in his carseat that I initially dismissed. After all, she never used carseats for her kids and I think the extent of her experience driving our kids in her car was a Britax Laptop and a backless booster. A while later, after reflecting upon it, [...]

So you’ve planned the big trip: the luggage is picked out, you know what outfits the kids will be wearing, you know what snacks everyone will be eating on the plane, but you don’t know what to do about carseats. Traveling with kids isn’t easy. So many things can go wrong. But with a little [...]
As I unloaded all the training seats that I took to class in Kingston last week – I got the bright idea to share my collection with our blog readers. I had no intention of turning it into a giveaway but when I noticed the bag of Lifesavers freebies that has been sitting next to my desk [...]

While I was at the Lexus Family Safety Camp, the professional drivers gave us pointers to be better, safer drivers. Here are some tips on how to adjust your seating position as a driver.

The last few days have been really hot here in NY. Like sweltering, broiling hot. But the Marathon 70 wasn’t even breaking a sweat. In fact, she looked pretty fantabulous in her red bikini.
