Time is seriously flying! Wilder will be 4 months old this weekend. Howwww? It’s so strange that he’s no longer considered a newborn. I wanted to share our experience with the bassinet we’ve used since he came home from the hospital. For those not familiar with the SNOO, it’s a smart sleeper that was created by Dr. Harvey Karp who wrote “Happiest Baby on the Block” and created the 5S’s: swaddle, side-stomach position, shush, swing and suck. We swore by the 5S’s with Crosby and were so excited to implement them with Wilder and use this bassinet.

How To Survive Travel With a Toddler & Baby
Last week we took our first trip as a family of four. I’m still exhausted and think I need a vacation to recover. 😉 I got so many questions about traveling with two kids. I am by no means an expert, but there were a few things that were very helpful. I want to share my must haves when traveling with a toddler and an infant.

Cute/Not Cheesy Baby Boy Clothes
One of the questions I’ve been asked the most lately is where I find Wilder’s clothes. The answer is literally everywhere! I did this post a few months ago about my favorite places to buy clothes for baby boys, but thought I should update it with more favs.

Favorite Places To Buy Baby Boy Clothes
my dress: Love Shack Fancy (old // similar)
Wilder’s outfit: Gymboree (RIP // similar)
Crosby’s dress: Burberry (similar)
I’m pretty picky when it comes to baby clothing. I typically gravitate towards things that are cute but also look like an adult might wear them. Now that I’m a boy mom I feel like I can really talk about the struggle to find cute (not cheesy) baby boy clothes.

Postpartum Must Haves
Hello! Happy Thursday! I’m slowly emerging from the newborn fog over here and wanted to do a post today sharing what’s been getting me through the last few weeks. The newborn phase is challenging and it’s one you somehow forget about as soon as it ends. Your body re-adjusts to functioning on little sleep and it takes some time to recover and get back into normal clothes. There have been a few things I’ve found to be lifesavers that I wanted to share.

Freshly Picked Half Yearly Sale
If you’ve been following me since I had Crosby it’s probably obvious that Freshly Picked moccasins are my favorite shoes for her. She’s been wearing them since she could fit into their newborn sized moccs and hasn’t stopped. They were the only shoes that would actually stay on her feet when she was a baby… even socks would fall off! Now that’s she’s bigger, she can even fit into their sneakers, sandals and mini sole moccs. We love them all!

Comforts™ Brand Baby Formula
Life with Crosby is non-stop fun, but also just non-stop. The girl has so much energy and doesn’t know how to sit still. She definitely keeps me on my toes. But as far as I’ve …
Beauty Items Every New Mom Should Bring To The Hospital
When I think back to how I packed my hospital bag for Crosby’s birth 7 months ago, I laugh. I actually planned to shoot a post on what I packed the day she was born …
