HP Photosmart A630 Compact Photo Printer Review
July 17, 2008
The HP Photosmart A630 Compact Photo Printer is one of the best gadgets our family has come across in a long time. It’s really small, lightweight and with it’s built in handle, it’s designed to be portable enough to carry along with you on vacations, at parties or any kind of gathering where you’ll be snapping pics.
The setup on this printer took about 2 minutes. Just unpack it from the box, plug it in, install the print cartridge, put paper in the back and you’re ready to go.
I have to admit that it took me a few minutes to figure out how to access the paper input tray. It turns out you have to lift the handle to see the little place where you can grab the back cover with your finger. Read more
My Baby Nest Baby Sling
July 12, 2008
As a new babywearer, I was excited when my friend Katie asked me to test the My Baby Nest baby sling. My four month old and I are still experimenting – trying to find the right carrier for us – so when this soft, cuddly, baby blue sling/wrap arrived, I was anxious to try it out. The Baby Nest is marketed as a cross between a wrap and a pouch – a wrap with no wrapping, if you can imagine that.
It took me longer than I had hoped to get the hang of wearing my baby in this carrier. However, the only carrier I had previously used was a front pack with straps and buckles, which may have added to my problems. The carrier is worn by slipping your shoulders through two loops, sliding baby in, and then hooking a belt type piece around him. I had some difficulty with this process, and by the time I was ready to move, he was fussy. As with any new carrier, practice putting this one on before you have a fussy baby, and you should be fine.
