Fun family products for your Whatcom County autumn

Quick change artist

Skip Hop Pronto Changing Station

There should be a separate Murphy’s Law for baby diapers. It doesn’t matter where you are — the fanciest restaurant or the most remote beach — your baby will manage to dirty that diaper. So it’s best to always be prepared with this handy traveling changing station that can store diapers and wipes and unroll into a handy changing pad whenever the doody strikes. $30 at Wild Blueberries, wildblueberries-kids.com.

Tiny 12

Cozy Wozy Seahawk Bib

Your baby can have team spirit even when they’re spitting up with these Seahawk-theme bibs from Bellingham company Cozy Wozy. The inside is just as fun as the outside, with a lime-green, super-soft plush lining. Now if only they made adult sizes for tailgate snacking. $9.99 at Bellingham Baby Company, bellinghambabycompany.com.

Comfy Crawler

Laces Out

Mud Pie football hat

They may be a little young to throw a spiral, and they might not fully know who they’re rooting for, but that doesn’t mean your little ones shouldn’t get in on the fun of football season. These adorable knitted football beanies will keep them cozy through the playoffs. $16.99 at Along Comes a Baby, alongcomesababy.com.

Nothing says, “Hooray, it’s the weekend!” like pancakes for breakfast. Take the joy of that special morning meal up a notch with these whale and pig pancake and egg shapers. Just pour in the batter and you’ve got an edible work of art, with syrup please. $4.95 at Greenhouse, greenhousehome.com.
