Bentgo® Kids Chill Lunch Box - … curated on LTK

natalieriendeau

We’ve been working with our LTKToddler to practice opening (and closing!) her lunchbox before school starts and while she was enjoying her lunch today I felt like I should share it just in case anyone else is shopping last minute for their LTKPreschooler. 🫣 LTKKids LTKBacktoSchool

The one thing our #LTKToddler requested for her birthday this year was a *pink* bicycle. We don’t think she’s quite ready for a proper bike yet, so we opted for the balance bike option until she gets comfortable with the functionality and concept of bike-riding. This was the perfect #BirthdayGift for our three year old!

We also got her the appropriate safety gear (helmet + elbow and knee pads) and a little basket for the front of her bike for keeping all of her little treasures in. 🚴🏼‍♀️🎀 Mom and Dad got the carrying strap because we all know how toddlers can be… 😉

A little pocket of autumn in our #LTKKitchen 🕯️

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

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

Obsessed with this new iteration of The Magic Playbook — these reusable pouches are perfect for bringing activities (and snacks!) on-the-go for kiddos. There are multiple pouch colors to choose from and you receive a new playbook in the mail each month to use as you please (with digital pages also available to download for re-prints!).

This is going to be so helpful for packing full of fun for dinners out, days spent with the grandparents, or even for entertainment on flights! I truly couldn’t be more excited about this!

#LTKTravel #LTKKids

Who says exercise equipment can’t be pretty?? 😉 I love these padded dumbbells and my yoga mat that resembles a vintage rug! They’re perfect for me when I’m working on [re]building my strength (particularly on poor weather days when stroller walks aren’t happening).

#LTKActive #LTKFitness

I’m SO happy that Pottery Barn Kids brought this little festive Christmas tree back this year! I know it’s REALLY early to be thinking about #LTKHoliday , but these sell out so fast and I just had to share with you before they’re all gone. Sophie LOVED having this festive tree in her bedroom last year so I knew I had to buy another for Chloe! 🎄✨🎀💫🩰🌙

#LTKBaby #LTKKids

I spotted this adorable plush bonfire set in Bullseye’s Playground on a recent trip to Target — it was only $3 so I couldn’t resist snagging it for our #LTKtoddler to use for some camping dramatic play.

I will note that the construction of the toy is extremely poor, but for $3 you get what you pay for. If Sophie ends up playing with it a lot we will invest in a more deluxe set, but for now this is a very cute option!

#LTKKids

I love walking past this little autumnal scene in our entryway — it really sets the whole vibe of our home each season.

(I REALLY need to get some frames for our printed family photos though 🫣)

#LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

I love walking past this little autumnal scene in our entryway — the subtle nod to fall in this space really sets the whole vibe of our home.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

All of the things we have and use for our #LTKPreschooler ‘s lunch! Everything is both secure against leaks, but also easy for our three year old to manage.

#LTKKids

Sophie is entering her second year of dance class and we couldn’t be more excited! With one year under our belts, these are the current favorites for our #LTKtoddler ‘s weekly classes! 🩰 I linked everything we ordered for Sophie this year (many are repeats from last year, just in her current sizes).

This bag is quite large for what we need to keep in it at this stage, but it will continue to grow with her… especially if she continues with dance! 🩰 I love that it’s water resistant (PNW life!), can be carried like a backpack OR a tote, and there’s tons of storage both in the interior and exterior of the bag. Lastly, I loved its simplicity; so many dance bags have embellishments, but I prefer a cleaner look.

#LTKKids #LTKBaby

Trying to work on adding some cardio back into my life by taking the girls for some wagon / stroller walks on fair weather days. For a little extra oomph I strap these ankle weights on and I can absolutely tell a difference by the end of my walk! They create the perfect additional resistance.

#LTKFitness #LTKActive

I really love this sign for our beginning and the end of the school year photos! I know it will be fun to have these details to look back on over the years. Not only is this board beautiful, but I love the function of the removable first and last day magnetic strips! #LTKBacktoSchool

#LTKKids

Oh my goodness, I had forgotten how much fun it is for baby to kick around under a play gym and make some noise with the dangling pieces! Chloe has been having a ball sitting in her little bouncer seat kicking at the Lovevery Sensory Strands addition to her play gym while I do tasks like fold laundry. I highly recommend this sensory play for baby (and for a few minutes hands-free for mama! 😅).

#LTKBaby

This is our extra set of clothes for Sophie’s preschool backpack. Everything is labeled and ready to go in the event that she needs to change at school. #LTKBacktoSchool

Most of her clothes are from Jamie Kay (in this pouch: the sweater and leggings), but I’ll link the other items that I can!

#LTKKids

We have some travel quickly approaching and I’m trying to come up with screen-free things that I can pack to entertain our #LTKToddler — I was so excited to find this travel sized set of magnetic tiles that come in an aluminum box that can also serve as a base for any of her creations!

#LTKTravel #LTKKids

I’m starting to pull out all of my autumn decor and my front door wreath is the first thing that I swap out (just in case the neighbors need to know what kind of household we are — we’re the kind that embraces autumn on Sept 1st, no matter the temperature outside 😜).
This indoor / outdoor wreath is perfect for our front door, which is under a portico, so it’s not fully exposed to the elements. 🍂🍁 I adore the size of the wreath and the color of the leaves — it sets a neutral, minimalist tone.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

I think this lighter is such a brilliant idea. You never run out of lighter fluid, since it’s reusable (just charge it!) it minimizes waste from discarding spent lighters, the arc is super effective at lighting candle wicks, and, now that we have two little ones, the safety features are my favorite part.

#LTKHome

I’m doing a LOT more baby-wearing with my second baby because I need to be hands-free while I chase my toddler around. 🤪 Chloe is a big fan (and I have to say, I don’t mind the constant cuddles 🥹)!

I love the light, neutral color that will “work with” any outfit, the nubby texture of the fabric, the comfort of the fit, AND the fact that it’s machine washable!

#LTKBump #LTKBaby

I love this slimmer athletic band for my Apple Watch! I find that the wider band overwhelms my wrist and I appreciate that the design of this clasp is even more secure. ⌚️

#LTKActive #LTKFitness

Since it’s September now and the start of #CozySzn I thought I’d share our beloved tea kettle for all of your cozy drink needs! The best part is that it’s so pretty we just leave it out on the stovetop in our #LTKKitchen year-round. 🫖

#LTKHome

We’re in the throes of potty training our #LTKtoddler — this little entertainment basket that we put together has been really useful at keeping her focus while on the potty!

*I found this exact basket at Homegoods, but I’ve linked a variety of similar options

#LTKKids

This is the best kept secret for non-screen entertainment on the go! We aren’t opposed to screen time, but it’s nice to have an alternative and it’s especially perfect for any #LTKToddler when away from home. 🎶

#LTKKids #LTKTravel #LTKFamily

When it comes to glassware for champagne, I personally prefer a coupé to a flute, and I love the simple elegance of this one. The construction is dainty, yet sturdy and it holds a surprising amount of liquid. They work well for sipping cocktails too!

#LTKHome

I almost forgot to capture this little bean in our little heirloom bow swaddle before she outgrows it! 💕🎀 Such a sweet way to wrap your babe and it’s especially perfect for newborn photos. There are many different ribbon shades and a few ribbon fabrics to choose from (plus, they’re monogrammable!) — we have the “Southern Blush Silk” option.

#LTKBaby #LTKBump

We love these little silicone dish sets for our #LTKToddler — they’re unbreakable, easy to clean and are the perfect size for preschooler sized portions.

#LTKKids #LTKBaby

I wish I had known about these footie pajamas with my first baby! The magnetic closure makes them a dream product for newborn parents — I LOVE a double zipper, but this design is my new favorite, especially for those middle-of-the-night diaper changes!
They offer a variety of fabrics, colors and prints, but this pointelle fabric in color “tofu” is my favorite. I even bought a few spares for the inevitable blowouts so I always have a clean one. 😂

*New Parent Note: these are also -perfect- for doctor appointments so you don’t have to deal with fussier outfits.

#LTKBump #LTKBaby

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

Having so many emotions about our #LTKtoddler starting preschool this fall!

I found this adorable backpack for her to carry all of her necessities to / from school and it’s a nice size that’s not *too* big, but it can grow with her!

I liked this bag in particular because the material will make it easy to wipe clean (knowing preschoolers, I think we’ll probably have to clean it often 😜).

#LTKBacktoSchool

#LTKKids

Sophie loves that these popsicle holders help me feel better about giving her a frozen treat indoors! The straw is also perfect for drinking any melted popsicle that’s leftover.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKKids

Oh my god — this is our favorite baby-related item that we’ve ever treated ourselves to! This bottle maker has honestly been a game changer for mixing bottles (ESPECIALLY in the wee hours of the night!!). 🍼

#LTKBump #LTKBaby

I am SO behind the curve on Back to School shopping for our #LTKtoddler and so many of the classic white *Velcro strap* sneakers are sold out in her size. 😪 I panic-ordered these and they’re SO cute! I like that they’re faux leather so they should be easy to just wipe clean and the Velcro straps mean that Sophie can put them on / take them off by herself!

#LTKBacktoSchool

#LTKKids #LTKShoeCrush

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

I don’t know how I ever lived without tubing mascara! If you’ve been here for a while you know that mascara is my FAVORITE beauty product, but I’m always sad when I lose eyelashes when removing the product from my eyes. Tubing mascara basically eliminates this element and I’m crazy about it for that reason alone! Plus, it’s a thin formula (great for layering) and the wand brush is pretty nice too for even product distribution.
