The countdown to the unofficial start of Summer has begun! We're counting down the days until Memorial Day weekend, and in preparation for the start of beach season, we're giving our beach bag a bit of a makeover. Every year thousands of plastic shovels and beach buckets are swept into the sea, and sadly, it takes over 500 years for standard plastic to biodegrade. This Summer, make eco-friendly choices when it comes to your kids' beach toys. Check out eight of our favorite green finds — the beach, and your children, will thank you!

Mother's Day had celeb moms surrounded by their loved ones this week. We saw everyone from Jessica Alba to Pink wrapped up in their little ones' hugs on the actual holiday, while throughout the week parents like Joel Madden, Rachel Zoe, and Molly Sims enjoyed precious moments with their tots.

That baby ought to be in pictures — lots of pictures! Baby's first day will seem like a blur to everyone involved in the lil one's birth. For some moms, it takes looking back at photos of the day to actually recall some of the events. Before handing your camera over to a friend or relative who's promised to capture it all, make a list of the pictures you want to ensure they are recorded before everyone falls off to sleep. Here are our top 10 must-take photos on baby's first day.

Summer hasn't even started yet, but we've already got our eye on Fall after previewing The Land of Nod's upcoming collection of delectable room furnishings. The Fall 2013 collection, which will be in stores (and online) in July, is filled with new furniture pieces — many of which take a sharp and exciting turn from the retailer's usually eclectic fare.

Among the most exciting things to come out of the line is a new collaboration with NYC-based contemporary furniture designer Ducduc. The Ducduc for Nod collection will include custom cribs and case pieces designed just for the retailer (at a fraction of the brand's regular cost, natch!). Other key finds include a handwoven wicker headboard, a variety of nightstands, and lots of geometric shapes spread throughout the collection. Keep reading to see some Fall picks, and tell us: which are you craving?

If you're anything like me, the Photo Library on your iPhone is overflowing with images of your kids. Sure, you send a few of them to grandma and you vow to sync them with your computer so you can "do something with them," but chances are they pretty much just sit there.

In a matter of just a few minutes, your mobile images can do more than just sit as photos on your phone. They can create a storybook, fill a scrapbook, or become a journal that your tot will look back on for years to come. All it takes is a quick download of one of our favorite apps, and you're ready to go. Here, eight apps that help you do more with your photos than ever before!

The royal baby watch is officially kicking into high gear as Kate Middleton nears her reported July due date. But if the idea of waiting two more months to be surrounded by all things royal baby seems too long, then look to London's Grosvenor House. The hotel, along with Dragons of Walton Street, has transformed one of its Premium Park View Suites into the "Suite Dreams" nursery, a quintessentially British room filled with bespoke, handcrafted, and hand-painted nursery furnishings inspired by the hotel's rich history and idyllic views of Hyde Park.

Dragons of Walton Street is no stranger to royal nurseries. The Mayfair-based shop was the decorator of choice for Prince William's, Prince Harry's, and their cousins Princess Beatrice's and Princess Eugenie's nurseries. While in London for the Cybex by Jeremy Scott launch event, I visited the quaint store and saw its beautiful designs firsthand — including the exclusive license for Beatrix Potter. They're nothing short of exquisite. For this project, Dragons commissioned five different artists to create new artwork for the suite. The total price tag for all the furniture included in the suite would be a whopping $39,640!

Staying in the suite comes at a price too, as you can imagine. Of the three available packages, the Buckingham package is the most luxurious, featuring a three-night stay starting at $9,561 and including a full baby concierge service — pickup from the airport, an evening of child care, dinner for two at the hotel's steakhouse, a complimentary cut and blow dry at Sanrizz for moms, a shave at Alfred Dunhill for dads, a private consultation with Dragons of Walton Street, a private tour of Buckingham Palace, a personal shopping trip to Harrods, and use of a Balmoral Silver Cross Pram throughout your stay.

Your best friend's pregnant and you want to celebrate! While buying her a round of drinks at your favorite bar may be out of the question, there are a number of ways you can congratulate her — whether you live down the street or halfway around the world. From cheeky cards to tasty (yet nutritionally helpful) treats, check out our favorite ways to celebrate your newly pregnant friend's big news!

It's no secret that pregnant women easily put on a few pounds each month until their bundle of joy arrives —unfortunately getting rid of that weight is not so effortless. Along with eating right, exercise is a sure way to getting your body back to the way it was pre-baby. Our basic postpartum exercise time line helps you determine how and when to slowly add exercise so that you can watch the number on the scale drop as your baby grows.

It doesn't take much to make most moms happy on Mother's Day — just some heartfelt words and some time with their little loves. That appeared to be the case throughout Hollywood, as celebrity mamas took the day to celebrate with their kids. Lucky for us, many decided to capture their sweet moments and share the pictures via Twitter and Instagram. Click through to see which celeb moms spent the day on the beach with their tots, which ventured to restaurants, and which were able to snag a few hugs.

Our favorite celebrity tots were at play this week, and their parents shared all of their adorable candid moments via social media.
