Hi Alan & Denise!
First, thanks for providing a wonderful service with your book. It was my "bible" while planning for my daughter's arrival and based on the number of people I saw toting it around with them in the stores, it was theirs as well!
I would like to suggest a source for the "What's on the Web" section of your next edition. There isn't much mention of hats in your book, but they are so important for babies -- for warmth in cold weather and for sun & wind protection all year-round. I have been searching the retail chains in vain for cute, everyday hats for my daughter. It seems all I could find were the white lacy christening bonnets or the floppy "fishing hat" style. Then I found a fabulous site on-line called The Baby Bee Hat Co.
What a find! This site is very user-friendly with pictures of the many styles available. They have both girl and boy styles, styles by season, and even custom sewing available. Regular prices are reasonable enough ($10-15), but there's a "Clearance Corner" with deals up to 50% off! The quality of the hats I bought is excellent -- very well-sewn -- and I received them less than one week after ordering. The best thing is the variety to choose from; it beats anything I've seen in the stores. I know I will be buying more not only for my daughter but for gifts too.
I highly recommend this site! Check it out -- www.babybeehats.com
