How I Tame My Toddler’s Curly Hair
Do you have a toddler with curly, frizzy, hard to tame hair? It’s taken a few months, but I’ve finally figured out how to somewhat manage her curls. Below is everything I’ve been using on her hair for the last few months: SoCozy Kids Curl Leave in Conditioner– this stuff is great! Doesn’t leave her hair hard or crunchy & has a nice (not overwhelming) scent. Spray bottle for water– I filled this with water to use when her hair is dry Comb– This comes with a brush & comb.

Travel Guide: Family Trip to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina
Where We Stayed I will be the first to admit I did very little research before this trip. I looked into a few hotels & let my husbands family take the reigns on the rest of the planning and pick what they wanted to once we were there.

We didn’t have a separate room to put Mackenzie’s crib in like we did when we stayed at the JW Marriot in Orlando, but the room was PLENTY big for…

My Favorite Straw Cups for Toddlers
We have all of these cups & have been using them for a while now so I feel like I can give my honest opinion on all of them. We began using straw cups when we started solids so that we could provide water while she ate. I also found that since she was using them so often we had ZERO issues when it came time at 12 months to completely drop bottles! This was one of our first straw cups Mackenzie used! We’ve only ever used it for water & it’s worked out great. I’ve never had any issues with it leaking and she can drop it without it…
