These little cutie gel packs that can either be warmed up or frozen are so perfect for soothing boo-boos, but our physician recently reminded me that using warm compresses on the sinus cavities can help loosen things up when littles are sick. These are a GREAT way to accomplish that! (And how adorable are their designs?!) Had to share just in case you / your kiddos are in the thick of a cold and looking for some relief! #LTKKids #LTKBaby
These baby-safe bath bombs really help boost those steamy baths when your littles are sick. We love these for opening up those tiny nostrils and helping to loosen up all the crud. And they have such soothing scent… it’s almost like a spa day if your babes weren’t under-the-weather. 🧖🏻‍♀️ #LTKBaby #LTKKids
It’s Germ Season just time for #LTKBacktoSchool 🤧🤒🦠 and since Sophie started preschool this year, I stocked up on the supplies in our “feel better” bin. I’ve linked everything we have and love for both our #LTKToddler and baby below: *Humidifier, barf bags, and hand sanitizer not pictured, but used often / kept at-the-ready in our house. #LTKBaby #LTKKids

My Heatless Summer Hair Essentials My hair is insanely long these days and it takes an eternity to dry so it’s well worth looking like Queen Amidala for a few hours to get some soft waves (the curls relax after a little while). #LTKBeauty
I’m really excited to try this new-to-me self tanner! 🤎 #LTKBeauty
My #Sephora sale haul! I took the opportunity to replenish my beloved facial cleanser (+ a mini for travel!), and also got some items I’ve been wanting to try: a new-to-me concealer, highly rated lengthening mascara and an aerosol-free dry shampoo! #LTKBeauty

This container was so useful for feeding Chloe on the go! I was able to comfortably fit four scoops of formula (probably with room for one more scoop) in each container; Chloe is drinking 4oz at a time right now so each little container holds two bottles’ worth. I bought two sets to extend my stack for our recent trip and I used one container to keep my formula whisks for helping to blend up each bottle on the go. The stack also fit so easily into my travel bag! I’ve also linked my favorite baby bottles, travel containers (you can bring just the silicone insert pieces and use just one shell while travelling!), and travel bottle cleaning / drying rack. #LTKTravel #LTKBaby
This activity pouch was perfect for our recent October travels! I plan to utilize this setup for screen-free entertainment going forward, but adjusting the theme for the destination or season / holiday. A few items not visible: autumn-themed coloring pages printed on special Color Wonder paper (the markers are designed to only color on the paper) as well as Halloween-themed dot sticker pages with some sheets of dot stickers. 🖍️📘 #LTKKids #LTKTravel
I’m not super keen on our #LTKToddler sleeping in a “real bed” when we travel so we bought this incredibly easy self-inflatable mattress to use for trips and WOW! Such a brilliant design — the manual pump couldn’t be easier to use and took me less than a minute to inflate. Sophie loved using it and it gave us peace of mind that she wouldn’t roll off of an elevated bed in the middle of the night (and if she did, there wasn’t far to go to reach the floor from this little mattress 😉). *You don’t NEED to use a fitted sheet with this travel mattress, but we bought some cot sized ones to use (which are admittedly a bit too long, but this mattress is longer than a standard crib so crib sheets don’t fit). I’ve linked those here as well. #LTKKids #LTKTravel

I was so excited when I saw these cloches at Target! I have a cloche that I love for decor, but never have options to share / link — these are great and I had to get a pair for myself. #LTKHome
Another little sneak peek of our #LTKToddler’s bedroom 🪻 #LTKKids #LTKHome
These battery powered sconces were such perfect additions to the girls’ rooms. Super easy to install, I think the quality is pretty great (given the price), the dim setting is excellent for nighttime feeds and diaper changes in our nursery, and we love having non-overhead lighting that isn’t a standing lamp (with a dangerous power cord). *Note: I will say that the bulbs that come with the light fixtures have a history for being flimsy and are notorious for the piece that holds the charging cable in place breaking off and getting lost inside inside, but we ordered replacement rechargeable bulbs and have been happy with them so far! #LTKHome #LTKBaby #LTKKids

Instead of the viral hand fan I opted for this “stroller” fan which is more suitable for our family and lifestyle. It’s amazing and we already love it! I know it will be in heavy rotation this summer and for warm climate travel destinations. #LTKKids #LTKBaby #LTKSeasonal
Our beloved block set is available at a discount for Prime Day! 🧸📚 #LTKKids #LTKBaby

We love our Bose Smart Speaker for listening to music, audio books and podcasts! It’s also great for ambient music when we have guests. 🎶 It would definitely make great gift! #LTKhome #LTKGiftGuide
A great gift for everyday life, but especially for the traveler! #LTKGiftGuide #LTKFathersDay #LTKmens

Chloe has been getting purées as part of her diet for a few months now, but always spoon-fed. Lately she’s been showing interest in eating directly from the pouches so we pulled out our pouch holder (in an effort to minimize messes) and it’s been a big hit! I had forgotten how useful this thing is. #LTKBaby
Chloe’s #FirstBirthday gifts (+ a set of blocks) to share with big sister. 🎀 #LTKBaby
For Chloe’s #FirstBirthday we created this custom board book that features all of her family members! It was super easy to design and we loved putting it together for her 🎀 Such a perfect gift for a one year old. #LTKBaby

Sophie has been LOVING the art easel that she received for her fourth birthday — the roll of paper is super convenient, the little clamps that hold the paper in place are sooo clutch, the tray is excellent for storage, and the height of the whole easel is so easy to adjust. #LTKKids
Sophie’s “Sugarplum Fairy” tutu dress for her ballerina-themed Fourth #BirthdayParty 💫🩰🎀 #LTKParties #LTKKids
Sophie’s main birthday gift! There are a lot of scooters available and I really don’t think you can go wrong, you just want to find the one that works best for your child + your preferences. We chose this one because it has: - Three Wheels - Foldable Functionality - Lean to Steer - Adjustable Height - Light-up Wheels (for visibility) Thankfully, Sophie’s helmet still fits from last year, but I’ve linked a few other scooter AND helmet options that we heavily considered. #LTKKids #LTKParties

A little dino play to start our day! 🦕🦖🌋 Our dinosaurs are actually light up bath toys 🤭 our set is so old that I can’t link the exact one, but I found some similar (and even better, imo) sets. All resin pieces (volcano, leaf dish and pebbles) are by @sileenie #LTKKids
This is the block set of my dreams! Our girls have had so much fun playing with these blocks already — I don’t know what took me so long to order them. They’re so beautifully made and I love the multi-purpose box that everything fits in! I will warn that the pieces have to be put away EXACTLY as they are packed if you want to store them in the box so be sure to take photos to reference (which I happened to do for content purposes, but I would have been ABSOLUTELY lost otherwise). That said, the set does come with a beautiful fabric pouch as a storage alternative. #LTKBaby #LTKKids
We’re going to be doing a week on dinosaurs with my preschooler during our At-Home Camp this summer and I found this adorable dino fossil kit for some sensory play! 🦖🦴 #LTKKids

I’ve wanted to buy one of these for our #LTKPreschooler for years now and I finally pulled the trigger on my purchase! I love the material — it’s so easy to wipe off and it compresses quickly for ease of storage. Excellent for indoor play when the weather is inclement! #LTKKids
There isn’t a day that goes by that we don’t use this little kitchen set in some capacity. It is certainly a centerpiece of our playroom! #LTKGiftGuide #LTKKids
I have been wanting this play tray for our #LTKPreschooler for a while and this week I finally went for it! We still use our IKEA Flisat table for the majority of our activities, but sometimes I wish we had a slightly different setup and I think this will be perfect! I’ve also linked some great play accessories by the same brand (we own a few already and now I’m eyeing a few more). #LTKGiftGuide #LTKKids #LTKBaby

These salad kits from Taylor Farms have been my recent hyperfixation meals! I have loved the flavors of every kit I've tried so far (my two favorites are the Everything & the Mexican Street Corn), but there's such variety of options! I am impressed by the quality of the ingredients, I think the way that the toppings are packaged inside with the salad mix is so smart for freshness' sake, and lastly, I really appreciate the bite sized chunks — it's so frustrating when chopped lettuce is cut in large sizes that I can barely fit into my mouth. I have nothing but great things to say about these salads! 🥗 I’ve been able to find a pretty wide variety of these at my local grocery store and a few at Target, but I’ve also found a lot on Amazon Fresh! They’re perfect quick [healthy-ish] meals at home. #LTKHome
Normally, I’m a year-round iced beverage lover, but I’m currently feeling under the weather (preschool germs 🤧) and that means hot tea + honey. I wanted to keep my tea and a hot temperature while playing outdoors with my toddler and I was so happy to have my YETI to do that for me. The 20oz Rambler is the perfect “middle” size, in my opinion. It’s not mega, but it also holds a good amount of beverages and the mag slider cover helps retain the temperature + makes it easy to clean.
This is one of my favorite mid-priced white wines and when I’m missing Paris I like to pour myself a glass in one of my little bistro glasses. I use the glasses for every beverage under the sun: water, coffee, wine, cocktails… I find them to be the perfect sized glasses for our #LTKKitchen and I love their weight / durability (perfect for parenthood 🥴). #LTKHome

My first pair of Reeboks, but it won’t be my last! 👟 I love this classic style and they’re super comfortable. #LTKActive #LTKShoeCrush
I *LOVE* my Loeffler Randall Penny Bow Heels and think that they’re completely worth the investment. However, I know that pricepoint isn’t in everyone’s budget — this pair by Lulu’s is a pretty solid alternative. The quality isn’t the same, but the look is very similar and will complement any event outfit! ✨ If you’d like even more detail I have an in-depth comparison available on my blog. #LTKShoeCrush #LTKWedding
I never thought I’d be a Birks girlie, but here we are! They are so easy to slip on and were especially supportive for my feet / posture while pregnant and I am continuing to love them into postpartum life. The Arizona Big Buckle sandals in Sandcastle Nubuck are the perfect addition to my wardrobe because they’re not *too* hippie with the neutral color and fancier gold hardware. I will say that while the cork sole is supportive, it’s quite firm so if you prefer a softer footbed these may not be the best option for you. #LTKShoeCrush
