School lunch packing made easy

Something new in baby bibs? Believe it or not, yes.

I know, organic cotton is cool, plastic is not. But cotton gets ... wet. With the drool. And the spit-up. And the yams. I'm grossing myself out just thinking about it. Never fear, though -- Wow Baby has a new line of US made, double-line…
