I feel pretty cool for landing Kristina Sauerwein of BabyCenter.com’s MOMformation blog for a Guest Drive interview.  I think I have a small girl-crush on her.  How can you not crush on someone who’s not afraid to touch on everything from the recession’s impact on children to the perils of diaper-clad children in your car?

BurpieBlocker Is for Moms Who Want it All

Jun 02 2009

The BurpieBlocker is basically a burp cloth with an elastic neck strap designed to hold it in place while you’re carrying a baby over your shoulder. I attached it to my car’s rearview mirror, like the modern mom’s version of fuzzy dice. It lets everyone know you’re a mom, and it’s always there for cleaning up messes in the car.
