I am a big fan of baby-friendly places and places that cater to kids (and their parents).
One way that restaurants can do that is to offer free meals to kids. If you head on over to the Kids Eat Free website, you can find a listing of restaurants that do just that. The results are a bit skimpy at present, but you can submit your favorite restaurants so that other parents can learn from your experiences.
Thanks also for the compliments on my new blog look! I really like it as well. If you are ever looking for a new look check out Rebecca at Just a Little Something Extra Creations. She didn't charge much at all and was very reasonable.
Thanks for the Kudos on Little Lady's birthday book and wish list! I came up with the idea because we have a lot of family and friends living out of province and this makes it easier for them to send gifts/etc. for her birthday. I mostly registered for small things that I know she would be interested in or that wouldn't annoy me like crazy!
