Buds are blooming on the trees, bunnies and birds are doing their crazy love dances on the front lawn (not with each other - but you know what I mean), the smell of rainy freshness is in the air, and saving a planet that looks so deliciously dewy this time of year is on our minds.
Well that, and it's Earth Day, so what better time than the present to renew ourselves with eco-friendly and more importantly, family-friendly products?
Generation Orange has it all covered with inspired lifestyle products like the super fabulous Natursutten Pacificer (shown at top left, $8), which is the only all organic binkie in the world.
It's biodegradable, too.
Made from pure natural rubber (harvested from the Hevea brasiliensi tree, in case you were wondering), each paci is softer than silicone (and possibly softer than baby's cute dimpled bum), and are so hygenic that neat nik parents bordering on OCD will rejoice at the lack of gunk buildup.
Its molded from one piece, which means there are no joints, cracks or crevices for bacteria to camp out in, and they're CE certified - to us Yanks, that means that the Natursutten lives up to the European Union (EU) directives that deal with safety, health and environmental protection.
What's more, Natursutten pacis are completely free of allergy-causing substances, have no artificial coloring (although they will change color with use a little bit), are free from any cancer-causing substances, don't contain any hormone-disrupting substances, are free from chemical softeners, and are free from parabens, PVC, BPA and phthalates.
That's quite a earth-friendly pedigree for something that's going to end up chilling in the drool in baby's mouth.
Cosmomama says there's more in the details:
It doesn't end with things like pacifiers either.
Generation Orange carries a complete collection of green goodies for everything from mealtime to playtime to bathtime, like the Born Free Bottle Gift Set (not shown, $55). 
Not only is it a great newborn starter kit, but since each piece is made from high-quality Swiss polyamide, Born Free products are completely free from hormone disrupting bisphenol A.
And as the parents of older tots will tell you, at some point what goes in, must come out and not necessarily into a diaper.
We're loving (or should I say, Wills is loving) the Boon Potty Bench from Generation Orange (shown at bottom left, $34.99).
The contemporary, multiple parenting magazine award-winning, brightly-colored training potty has two enclosed side storage spaces for organizing potty-training supplies like toilet paper, wipes and maybe a soft-sided bath book, and also has a handy-dandy pull out drawer for easy, sanitary clean-up time.
Its low-to-the-ground design makes it a cinch for little tushies to perch upon, and since it doesn't make any weird noises, beeps or whistles, it's also completely approachable and not at all intimidating for first timers.
The parents of boys will appreciate the included removable (soft) deflector shield, that'll keep the pee-pee in the potty where it belongs, instead of, um, on the opposite wall.
Once the lid is closed, kiddies can use it as a sturdy stool - that supports up to 300 lbs. - that's perfect for reaching the sink for a post-potty session hand scrubbing.
Our side drawers won't stay closed, which is a bummer, since it adds a bit of risk for our Wills if he missteps off the top of the lid.
