A FEW FAVORITES

Anything that makes my life easier as a mom is worth buying. And worth telling others about. So here goes! Hope these things help you too!

1. The Snot Sucker. Kai got sick with a bad cough and runny nose, and I tried my best to keep him far away from Presley, but 3 days later she got it too :( Turns out it was RSV!  She's been so congested and this snot sucker has been a life saver. It works WAY better than those bulb syringes that get so gross so fast. Trust me, you'll want one of these. Get it here from amazon. She got over her RSV within a week, and I credit some of that to this awesome snot sucker :)

2. Baby Bjorn food catcher bib. Kai is now practicing feeding himself most meals, and when he's finished it looks like a tornado of food has hit him. These bibs  catch all the food he drops, which saves lots of cleaning up. They also rinse off  SO easily, which is so much easier than cleaning cloth bibs! Its $14 for a 2-pack. Buy them here on amazon.

3. This organic healing balm is THE best stuff I've ever discovered. I've used it on a million diaper rashes with Kai and Presley, and it always clears it up within a day. I also get extremely dry cracked hands (gross) and this is the only cream  that has ever helped. They look ten times better after just one night of having it on. Seriously, it's probably the only product I'm willing to spend $12 on. IT'S WORTH IT! You can get it here or in store at Target.

4. I have searched high and low for bows that are not gonna break the bank. One night I spent 3 hours surfing through Etsy shops, and it was just so frustrating to see people charging $8-$15 for one simple bow. These end up being only $2-$3 each and are so cute, as you can see on my sweet little Presley. They have lots of different colors and designs to choose from. Thanks amazon! Get em here.

5. And last but not least, the Nuby snack holder. Kai is a hungry little toddler and always wanting snacks, so here's the perfect thing for him to tote his snacks around. Why do kids love goldfish so much? I don't know, but this is the perfect thing to hold them. He carries it everywhere...at the grocery store, park, around the house...it sure gets lots of use. It also helps minimize messes and spills :) We lost ours the other day and I had to just hand Kai his goldfish, and he made such a mess dropping them all over the floor. This snack container really is a MUST! You can buy it here on amazon, where a 2-pack is only $6.50. Check out Nuby's instagram @nubyusa for more awesome products.

(I took these pics right before his haircut, and yikes! He definitely needed a trim.)
