my monthly faves: august edition
1 / nemah stretch mark cream
this body cream from nemah has been the BEST for soothing my postpartum skin! they say that stretch marks are somewhat genetic, but even if you don’t get stretch marks easily, your stomach has still been stretched sooo much to hold a baby, & this cream works wonders in helping it keep elasticity & stay smooth!
2 / glow in the dark pacifier
our first baby was nottt a pacifier girl - she could only ever be soothed with feeding :) but our sweet Ziggy Rose loves a pacifier! i recently started buying these ‘nighttime’ pacis, & it’s a game changer! not only do we love that they’re BPA-free (& cute!), but the front part glows in the dark, which is amazing because now we can find a lost paci in the middle of the night
3 / free people quinn pants
another pair of perfect free people pants! honestly these are super affordable too. i love how flowy they are - an amazing choice for this end of summer/beginning of fall weather change :)
4 / travel pill organizer
the days of being able to use a tiny cute pill organizer for a trip are overrrrr, haha! this one is the perfect size for all the supplements i take daily - i tested it & i’m pretty sure it fits around 2 weeks of my supplements!
5 / hatch mini sound machine
we are a biiig hatch family! we have 4 hatch sound machines in different bedrooms :) sooo when they released this mini version i had to try it! it is sooo nice to be able to use this when we’re rocking Ziggy to sleep in the living room, or need a nap in the car, or really anywhere - not having to use my phone as a sound machine is the move.
6 / lovevery play kit
i’ve talked about them before - basically the only toys we own for Foster are from lovevery! they make play kits that are customized by your child’s age & development, aka she loves every toy that she pulls out of the box! we just got The Helper kit, & we’ve loved the Block Set forever!
7 / my fave starbucks order
if you’ve been around my instagram for any amount of time, you know i love to hack my starbucks orders! this one is a spin on a pumpkin spice latte - but a regular psl iced latte with cold foam costs $3+ more than this dupe! tag me in your insta stories if you try it ;)
8 / beige car seat bag
we traveled to florida last month, the first long trip with both girls! since we had to bring two carseats along, i found this car seat bag which ended up being perfect (& neutral!). it was roomy enough to tuck some extra clothes & beach things in around the carseats (gotta take advantage of xtra space!), & so far has been so durable!
9 / walli case
walli cases are amazing because it’s not just a phone case, but it also has a card holder & finger loop on the back! i like a finger loop so much more than a pop socket (it’s way easier for me to hold onto?!), & i despise carrying a wallet around so this makes it so easy. my case is ‘picnic plaid’, but there are so many fun designs!
10 / wildbird sleep sack + pjs
my girls have been LIVING in wildbird these days! their sleep sacks are SO cozy, i truly wish there was an adult version because i would seriously wear it. so soft & breathable! Ziggy has a few of their sleep sacks (pay attention to the TOG rating for warmth!), & Foster has both their short sleeve & long sleeve pajama sets.
in case you missed it, i make a highlight for each month’s links on insta - here’s the august links one! see ya next month for the next round of my monthly faves ツ
