Hope you all are having a great weekend! Sunday is our relax & reset day and I definitely love it! Hope you are enjoying your day maybe with a cup of coffee or two in my case 😉 You love my little throwback of Sutton at 8 months old (above) ? Gosh this feels like yesterday! Btw my wildbird sling is also on my must have baby list and makes a spectacular baby shower gift.  A few weeks back I shared about the Dockatot and how my sister is loving it for her new baby girl! Here is her review on the Dockatot. She has now given me her honest review on another must have from my baby registry list! I will give you a hint she loves to swaddle her babes 😉

My sister’s sweet little girl is two weeks old already! Very exciting to have another little girl in our GIRL SQUAD! She has been such a great & calming addition! I wanted to give you all a little review on how my sister is using the gift we gave her at her shower! In case you missed it I shared my Baby Shower Gift favorites here and what I gifted for my sister for her baby shower here. Either list works for both baby girl & baby boy!

I love that the weather is finally getting nicer and we are able to be outside all day long! The girls are absolutely loving it! Since the weather is getting warmer we are having fun styling cute summer looks! Harlow is in this stage of picking out her own clothes whether it matches or not! She has a style all her own and real eye for what she likes and thinks will look good together! I just let her express herself that way because I think she is having fun knowing she can wear something different every day! Matching her sister is a MUST so we decided on some super cute pieces you are sure to love!

Hello Loves!!! Hope you all had a great weekend! My sister had her baby shower last weekend and I scrambled to prep Easter & birthday party prep for this past weekend! I can’t believe Easter has come and gone and my baby girl turned 4 today! So last Saturday we celebrated my sisters sweet little baby! My sister is expecting another little girl in May. A few weeks back I shared Top Baby registry items with you on the blog and I actually gifted a few of the items off that list! Check what those items are below!

As a mama of two I have walked those store aisles making sure I have everything a baby needs! Researched items to find what others like and read a bajillion reviews. I did this with both because with Harlow I was pretty basic. When Sutton came I felt like I knew what I liked and what I didn’t and what to spend a little more money on if we could! Today I am bringing you the Top Baby Registry Items. My sister is due with a baby girl soon and even though it is her second baby there are always things to get and I say put together a registry because it really helps when you want to get a gift the mother actually wants or needs! Also, just a rule I always like to state having a baby is A LOT of work please be considerate when asking to visit. Always bring a little something for the baby and if there are siblings a little something for each of them! Anyways… below is a list of top baby registry items plus a few items I say need to be on your registry because they are tried and true from this mama of two!

    I was approached by Jenn Sanders from Baltic Wonder to write for you all! She is my guest writer and she is explaining how AMAZING amber teething necklaces are! Now I had never tried an amber necklace but I heard how people love them! Sutton has been very irritable and not taking her naps which I figured was teething. I was using my usual remedies I used on Harlow but it didn’t seem to help enough like it did for Harlow. So when I received my amber necklace I put it on Sutton instantly and waited for relief! Now I would never tell you guys to get something if I didn’t believe in it. I am completely blown away by the results. Sutton isn’t a drooler so I don’t know how it helps with drooling however, the irritable, cranky temperament and overall discomfort is gone when she is wearing this necklace. I never take it off of her except for nighttime I move it to her ankle so she won’t try and grab it. Jenn has written why this amber necklace works and it’s good! Read more below!

Bump boxes is a subscription service for expectant mothers and is curated around your due date. I thought this would be a great gift for my sister who is expecting her second baby girl in May. I had to peek into her box and I love all the items in the box! Below I show everything that my sister received in her box. This subscription box makes a great baby shower gift because who doesn’t like to receive a package. They would get one each month and each box has new goodies to enjoy and help to make pregnancy a little bit sweeter!

Happy Birthday Sutton! Can’t believe she is 1 years old! She is saying mama and dada. She smiles all the time and shows love all the time. She has become the balance to our crazy! Harlow is our wild won’t stop child and Sutton just evens us out and goes with the flow. I love watching her little personality shine through. Sutton is standing and taking steps. She officially started walking October 4th. Her actual birthday was Sunday, September 24th, we celebrated with a pumpkin party. I found great shops through Etsy and Instagram to make Sutton’s party perfect! I linked all my party decor & the pumpkin invites below along with her adorable birthday outfits, and yes that is plural! Couldn’t decide on just one. 

We had such a great time celebrating Sutton! Overjoyed and loved spending the day with our sweet smiley girl! My family spoiled her with love and toys! Sunday was Sutton’s birthday and we threw her a Lil’ Pumpkin party! Finding gifts for children can be hard or just overwhelming in a store. There is a gift company called Incredibundles that makes super cute baby gift bundles. This is perfect for everyone! On their website you are able to choose a bundle or create your own! Nick and I decided to create a bundle as a gift for Sutton’s first birthday! See below for what we chose!
