My Top 5 Favorites from February 2023
Sharing my top 5 favorites from February (in no particular order): 1. Piggy Paint Nail Polish– We’ve been using this nail polish for a while now & love it! It’s non toxic, odorless, & dries pretty quickly. Mackenzie loves when I paint her nails & there are so many fun colors. It does chip off easily, but she’s young enough & doesn’t seem to mind at all! 2. Bombas Slippers– These are great slippers that actually stay on! 3. Color Wonder Mess Free Coloring– If your little one loves to color, but sometimes the mess is just too much then this is perfect! The markers ONLY work on special paper…

Here’s My List of Everything We Need for Baby #2!
We plan to reuse most of the “big stuff” we already have, but there are some things we’ll have to buy new. Here’s my list of everything we plan to reuse: – halo bassinest (We really liked this when we used it with Mackenzie. It sat right next to my side of the bed & the arm went down so it was easy to get her in & out) – doona car seat/stroller (this was an investment, but probably one of my favorite baby items we used with Mackenzie) – nuna car seat (we also had this one so we could use it with our stroller base. once the Doona…

Breaking Down 2 Awesome Lightweight Strollers for Your Family
I was on the hunt to find the perfect lightweight stroller to use with Mackenzie because using my full size stroller for quick errands was becoming too difficult. Also, my husband is of the mindset of not wanting to own a million different strollers, so I really had to do a lot of research before buying one. I ended up buying two to try out and was planning on returning one, but my in-laws bought the other one instead! This post is in no way sponsored or affiliated with either company, just giving you my honest opinion on both! Let me share what was on my must have list before…

Brand Highlight: Why I Love Lovevery!
My brand highlight posts, where I share why I love a certain brand, continues this week with Lovevery! We started receiving Lovevery play kits when Mackenzie was 5 months old. Her grandparents gave it to her during the holidays last year and we are still getting them at 17 months old. We also have other products from them like the play gym and stroller. Let me tell you why I absolutely love this brand! The toys are super interactive for babies and kids, but without any lights or sounds. I know speaking from experience that kids love toys that light up or play music, but after a while it starts…

Overrated Baby Products
I asked on instagram a few weeks back for your most overrated baby item and I’m sharing them below! If you’re currently pregnant and looking at baby things you’ll need once baby arrives, check out this list for some things you may NOT need to get: *Before I go into why I think these products are overrated, I should note that some items that are unnecessary to some, may be “must haves” for others. Swing- Some babies love a swing and some babies absolutely hate it. This is definitely a hit-or-miss baby product for sure. Boudreaux’s Butt Paste- I so wanted to love this diaper cream, but it’s so greasy…
