    I was thinking that a while back you wrote a post about baby stuff recommendations, here’s one. It’s called ITZBEEN and has a buttons for diapers, feedings, sleep and a spare and you press the buttons anytime you perform one of those so you know how long it has been since the prior time. Comes with a nightlight. Need 3 AAAs but is the damn handiest thing ever. I’ve seen it at buy buy baby.

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
