Shopping Bargains: Flap Happy Outlet Store

At a friend's suggestion, I'm finally posting about one of Lauren's favorite stores.  The Flap Happy Outlet has moved to Culver City.  It's an actual outlet with the factory in the back.  It's a great place to find deals on their cute boys' & girls' clothes.  (I have gotten hats for $6, T-shirts for $3, etc.) You may know them for their flap hats but they also have bathing suits, T-shirts & cotton pants, dresses, and headbands.  Lots of cotton clothes with bright colors, very much Lauren's style!

Location:
5830 W Jefferson Blvd, Ste 200. Los Angeles, CA
Outlet Store Hours: Tuesday - Friday 12 noon - 4 pm

If you are not local, you can often find their line on Zulily.

Shopping Find: Organic Baby Food

Found this organic baby food at the 99 cent store in Mar Vista, at 49 cents each.  Seems to be a great deal, except it was a waste of a few dollars for me.  I picked up some in peach and a few in apple, but William does the "yuck face" at both.  Maybe it will help some of you, though!

Last week William reached past me and grabbed some steamed kale from my "voluptuous veggie pizza" at Native Foods and when I mentioned it to his pediatrician, she told me that in her experience, second babies often don't like baby food.  She said it's fine to feed him pretty much anything we eat, except to avoid nuts until about 10 months, and no milk until 1 year.  Cheese is fine and "he'll probably really like it".   With his sister's love of sharp cheddars, feta, etc., I have no doubt he will follow in her footsteps.
