Christmas Gift Guide – Toddler Edition!
December is here 😬 Christmas is quickly approaching. This is Lulu’s second Christmas, I have a feeling Christmas will be a sensory overload for her this year 😅 That being said, I am going to make Christmas morning as visually pleasing as possible. Let’s be real, at 17 months she will be all about the colors, the paper, the ribbons, the music more than the actual toys. She is already all about the Christmas tree! Hanging the ornaments was so much fun with her this year 😍 Before I even went shopping for Lucy I looked for the prettiest paper and ribbons. Hallmark makes the best bulk wrapping paper. The…

Flannel Crib Sheets!
Winter is well on his way and the nights are so very cold in our house ❄️ One way we cozy up the nursery is using the Vornadobaby Tempa Nursery Space Heater we love it and use it everyday. Another way we keep Lulu warm at night is to switch her summer crib sheets for some snuggly flannel crib sheets. Amazon has the cutest patterns for flannel crib sheets. I just couldn’t resist this adorable pink Christmas pattern. They also have this pattern in blue for your little boy. Lulu loves to look at the animals and we talk about the snowmen and the reindeer, it’s a fun thing to…

New Baby – Bottles & Formula
Here comes the third post in my new baby series dedicated to my BFF Lola and her bundle of joy coming on New Years Eve! Lola asked me the question we all ask ourselves before giving birth, what if breastfeeding doesn’t work for me? Real talk, breastfeeding is HARD. I had very unrealistic expectations of breastfeeding as I’d known a few friends to breastfeed their kids with ease (or so I thought). Getting personal here, breastfeeding was very important to me, I knew the health benefits were essential to Lulu. I tried… but here is the thing, no one tells you beforehand how to breastfeed, how to pump, when your…

New Baby – Postpartum Items to Have at Home
Welcome to the second post in my New Baby series that I am putting together for my best friend, she is having her first baby on New Years Eve! Ok, so, your hospital bag is packed and ready to go, now it is time to think about what postpartum items you should have handy when you return home. The hospital provides many essential items for your stay, but your postpartum care continues long after you leave. If you are like me, you spent nine months preparing for baby and zero time preparing for your postpartum needs. I owe my survival of postpartum to my Mother and two Mama friends 🙏…

New Baby – The Hospital Bag
Let’s be real here, pregnancy is an all around overwhelming emotional process. From start to finish 🙃 especially your first. We brought Lulu into this world July of 2019 and it rocked our world, in a good way, of course but having your first child is life changing! That being said, my very best friend is due with her first, a little boy on New Years Eve, so I am dedicating this series of posts to her. I hope this helps other new or soon to be Mama’s out there! 💛 This post is all about the hospital bag 🙌 What to bring, what not to bring, what the…

What’s in Lulu’s nursery?!
Switching gears today, and discussing Lulu’s nursery! When I was pregnant I referenced so many blogs for the “must haves” in your nursery. After accumulating way too much stuff I thought it would be nice to put together a blog of the essentials we use everyday! Frida Baby Humidifier with Diffuser and Nightlight – This humidifier is the best! I can add an essential oil for those times Lulu needs some aromatherapy, I love that feature. It holds enough water to last through the night, and lastly the built in night light is such a bonus. I highly recommend! Hatch Baby Rest Sound Machine Night Light…
