Tried & True
Manning Contracting and Home Design
If you’ve been following me on Instagram, you may have seen some sneak peeks of our basement remodel with Manning Contracting and Home Design. When I say that I’m obsessed with their team, I truly mean it. I actually miss them now that they are done with our project....
Tide Cleaners, Oakley – Moms Love it!
I recently got to visit the new Tide Cleaners in Oakley and I was truly blown away with how they are running their business and operations behind the scenes. There is not another cleaner doing what they do in the industry and I believe every Mom can appreciate the...
Fun with KiwiCo!
I have been searching for a great subscription box for the kids, and I’ve found one! My little ones like to keep busy and with staying home, I am on the hunt for new activities all the time. We were generously sent a KiwiCo crate for JP and Brooke last month and they...
Letter Recognition at Home – Recommended by YOU!
One of the reasons I love this job so much is that I get to connect with so many amazing Moms in our community, even if it’s behind the phone on social media. Everyone is so willing to help and give recommendations! Last week I asked you for help with Letter...
Mom Hack: Daily Harvest Smoothies
I’m usually not one for frozen meal packages, and they typically get thrown out after I don’t touch them for a whole year... until I tried Daily Harvest smoothies. Like many of you, you’ve probably seen them along the way and wondered if you’d like them, or if they...
Our Experience with Melatonin and Toddlers
Just like many of you, my toddler was struggling to fall asleep and would wake up multiple times during the night wanting Mommy to lay down and stay in her bed. She would only fall asleep if I was next to her laying in her bed. She seemed anxious about falling asleep...
Skin Care & Beauty Favorites of 2018
There is so much out there for skin care and it can be overwhelming. One thing I think I got right in 2018 is a tried-and-true skin care routine with non-toxic products. ALL of these products are toxin-free! I made a huge...
Essential Oils and Motherhood
I’ve always put an emphasis on health in my life (Fun Fact: I used to have a blog with one of my best friends called Two Clean Girls - ha!) and it’s no different now that I have two little ones running the show. Like you, my kids are always coming home with a...
Tired & True Etsy Shop – Holly Slay Handmade (Plus a Giveaway!)
I’ve wanted to share this Etsy Shop that I’ve used for gifts and for my own kids over the last couple of year. The shop is Holly Slay Handmade and she specializes in handmade tea sets, but there are a ton of other options she can personalize - birthday plates,...
The Cold Weather Top you Need
I will be living in this outfit. And let’s get this out of the way - I am NOT a fashion blogger (although, why not pretend) and my husband was having a fit over taking these pics for me (we were LOLing pretty hard in the bottom pic)! This Dudley Stephens fleece is so...
THE Fall Shoe
Ok, I found it. This is the shoe you need this Fall. The Linea Paola Wedge Sneaker is BEYOND comfortable. The wedge makes it comfy, but also pulls any look into an outfit. I got mine from Nordstrom and they come in many different colors. I promise daily compliments on...
Self Care: Skin Care with Impress
It’s no secret, Moms. We tend to put ourselves last in order to make sure our tribe is taken care of and happy. Especially in the new mom season, we start to lose (who else went through an “oops. It’s 2pm and I haven’t brushed my teeth” phase? ME! Recenlty I’ve been...

Taco Tuesday Recipe
It’s taco Tuesday and I’m a sucker for Mexican cuisine! Have you all been to El Toro in Hyde Park Plaza - such a hidden gem. Also love me some Mazunte. When we can’t go out, I make this go-to taco recipe. It would be perfect for Cinco De Mayo coming up! Whip out your...
The Best Water Bottle
I've searched high and low for a water bottle that works for me and makes me excited to drink water. I'm TERRIBLE at drinking water, but this Hydro Flask water bottle has been my game changer. I've had the exact one below in white for a week now and I feel like a new...
Lanolips Lip Treatment
This stuff is gold. It's the only lip treatment and gloss that has worked on my lips (and mine aren't messin' around) this frigid winter. Not to mention, it smells and tastes devine. Pro tip - keep away from toddlers! They'll think it's candy and might squeeze half...

Two Ways to Get in Touch with Santa
