Bloom + Kind Baby Wipes

Happy Friday, everyone! Can someone please tell me where October has gone? I cannot believe my favorite month of the year is almost over. We have some exciting things going on this weekend: tickets to Taste of Atlanta on Sunday and a Halloween parade on Saturday. It’s is going to be filled with a ton of candy, hayrides, farm animals, etc. My kids are going to get filthy so I will be bringing my must have item that I can’t leave home without, baby wipes. I usually always forget diapers, but never baby wipes. Today I am sharing my love for a new brand of wipes which I know you will equally love.

 

Bloom & Kind Co. creates products in the USA that are safe for baby and easy on the planet. Their wipes are made from natural fibers, are produced using wind energy, biodegradable, and are never tested on animals. Their facility is also nut, wheat, and gluten free. The soft packaging comes in handy when fitting into a diaper bag and the opening easily opens and closes while keeping the wipes fresh. They are effective for diaper changes and extremely durable for wiping my kids’ hands and face. They have an excellent coverage area and don’t rip like other brands. buy lipitor online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/lipitor.html no prescription

 

 

Like most mothers, I am a stickler for what products I use on my kids.  Babies skin is more delicate and prone to dryness, so I love products that are moisturizing. I appreciate that Bloom + Kind wipes contain no perfumes and are safe for rash and eczema prone skin. They also last forever! I have been using this box 640 wipes for over 2 months now. Since the wipes are so large, I really only need 1 or 2 per diaper change, which is amazing since no one wants to spend a ton of money on something that goes in the trash. buy nexium online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/nexium.html no prescription
Conveniently, you can purchase these at your local Target or on Amazon (genius move, since us moms live for Prime and Target).

Newborn Must Haves

I am so excited to share all these must-haves for a new baby today. They make me almost want to have another one. ALMOST. I am giving away some of my favorite items that are essential to those first few newborn months. Everything is gender neutral so they will work for anyone who enters. Without further delay, let’s get to it!

Finn + Emma make the sweetest and softest clothes. They use only the finest 100% organic cotton and eco-friendly dyes. Everything is produced in fair trade settings that focus on economic independence, especially for women, so that they can provide for their families in a safe and fair environment.  They offer a wide range of gender neutral options and all their toys are made with natural wood. buy abilify online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/abilify-no-prescription.html no prescription

 

Milestone Baby Cards – Oh how I wish these were around when my babies were small! This set of 30 unique cards can be used to capture your babies first year in memorable moments. The cards are printed on thick card stock and can be framed or placed in a baby book after the first year is up. This is currently my go-to gift for all new moms!

DockATot was created to mimic the womb and its comforting environment has helped many babies suffering from reflux or colic. It has a breathable mattress pad with air flow, in addition to all parts being 100% breathable, making it safe for when babies start to move around. The DockATot is wonderful for safe co-sleeping, play time, supervised naps or tummy time, or just a comfortable spot for your baby to relax in. All parts are fully washable and have exchangeable covers that you can order to suit your style. buy amoxicillin online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/amoxicillin-no-prescription.html no prescription

 

All Lovely Made wooden teether with silicone beads. Around 4 months, babies start doing more with their hands. They will grab anything within their reach (including your hair. OUCH) This small elephant is the perfect size for tiny hands and it’s safe enough for them to chew on. It doubles as a toy and teether once they start getting teeth. The silicone beads are 100% food grade and free of BPA.

Itzy Ritzy Car Seat Canopy – When you take your newborn out into the big world for the first time, you want them to feel safe and protected. Since Evelyn was born in the winter, having a car seat canopy was perfect for blocking wind and germs from her tiny face. This canopy has a universal fit for all infant carriers, is machine washable, and comes with two toy loops to hang your baby’s favorite toys.

Binxy Baby Shopping Cart Hammock – I discovered this when Evelyn was a little over 3 months old and I wish this brand was around when Henry was a baby. It makes shopping a breeze especially if you have multiple kids. The carrier easily attaches to the shopping cart and holds babies up to 6 months (or 50 pounds) and can even hold an infant carrier. The hammock easily folds up and takes little room in a purse or diaper bag. This is a game changer when it comes to “Why didn’t I think of that?” products. PS: how cute does my baby look and when did she get so big? buy amoxil online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/amoxil-no-prescription.html no prescription

Halloween Books for Toddlers

It’s no secret that having kids really lets you enjoy the holidays more. I love decorating and doing as many festive things as possible with our kids during September-December. Halloween is by far my favorite holiday so I really love embracing all the fun traditions. When Henry was 16 months old I started collecting Halloween books for him to read throughout the month of October (similar to the 25 books of Christmas). It’s so fun to add more to our collection each year and now that Evelyn is old enough for books, they have really enjoyed reading them together. Unlike the Christmas books in our collection, the Halloween books are mostly short reads so they hold the kids’ attention span (even it that means I have to read each one five times in a row).
Here is my toddler approved Halloween book list!

What are some of your kids favorite books for Halloween? Let me know in the comments below!

October Favorites

October is undoubtedly my favorite month of the year, mostly because Halloween is my favorite Holiday. I decorate the last night of September so that I can enjoy the Halloween decor all month long. My house is currently decked out in all things black, white, purple, and orange. The weather in Atlanta is finally cooling off so it’s been nice being able to enjoy the outdoors again. With a new month comes new favorites, and I’m excited to share some things I’ve been loving lately.

 

You know how much I obsess over June & January basics. They make the most amazing pieces so that your kids can coordinate without being too matchy {see more here and here}. Their black and white pieces are perfect for October.
I really look forward to transitioning from my bright summer bag into a fall bag with a softer color. This peach hobo goes great with all the neutral colors I wear during the cooler months.
Fall baking and eating is a must in my house. Give me anything apple or pumpkin flavored and I’ll be happy. I am dying to make this donut milkshake and these pumpkin cinnamon rolls. We visited an apple farm last weekend and came back with over 40 apples. I’ve been making a ton of yummy  recipes this week. buy elavil online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/elavil-no-prescription.html no prescription
I’m loving an Earth tone lip color. I have several friends who swear by LipSense so I finally gave them a shot. They have a vast selection of colors to choose from and my favorite so far has been the Pink Champagne. It goes nicely with my skin tone without being too overpowering. Just like the brand claims, it really does last all day long. I can eat, drink, kiss my husband, etc and it doesn’t fade or rub off and it is waterproof. I love that you can create your own color pallet by combining shades. buy flomax online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/flomax-no-prescription.html no prescription
This pumpkin candle has been burning non-stop in my house. The smell is not too strong and these candles last forever. They have the best fall scents and the Halloween packaging is so cute.
I know you have all seen the adorable Cat & Jack line at Target for kids and I cannot rave enough about the pieces. The prints and patterns are so unique and fun and I love that the clothes have a 1-year warranty. This pom pom skirt is so fun and I cannot wait to style it on Evelyn. buy fluoxetine online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/fluoxetine-no-prescription.html no prescription

 

On Henry: tee // shorts {sold out, similar pants}
On Evelyn: bat headband // dress // socks
This weekend we are finally hitting up the pumpkin patch which we visit every year and I cannot wait to get my hands on some white and pink pumpkins. I’ve been spending way too much time on Pinterest lately and I am finally going to tackle my “Fall front porch” goal so send some Pinterest-win magic my way! Happy Wednesday, everyone!

Dear Grace & Parker Bows

My love for cute bows and headbands is no secret. Evelyn practically came out of the womb with a headband on. I think that is why she doesn’t mind wearing them, she probably thinks they are just another extremity. I love finding bows that are comfortable, affordable and that coordinate with a variety of outfits. Accessorizing Evelyn’s outfits with cute headbands is one of my favorite things about having a girl.

 

 

 

Instagram and Etsy are my go to for finding unique headbands and accessories. A few weeks ago I stumbled upon Dear Grace and Parker, they make the cutest and most beautiful bows. The nylon headbands and clips are so well constructed and sturdy. When Evelyn throws a tantrum, she always pulls her bows and headbands off to really let me know she’s angry (ha!) and they have held up wonderfully. buy lexapro online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/lexapro-no-prescription.html no prescription

 

Dear Grace & Parker has a vast assortment of fabric options and styles. I love this mini party hat, so perfect for New Years Eve, and once Evelyn has more hair you can be sure I’m getting these bitty glitter clips. What I love most about Dear Grace & Parker is that there is something for everyone. Whether you are shopping for a friend’s newborn or have young daughters, there is something for all ages. buy lipitor online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/lipitor-no-prescription.html no prescription

 

I love to include little bow sets when I attend a baby shower or birthday, and these make the perfect additions. The attention to detail will not go unnoticed. Do you have a bow or headband shop that you love? Let me know in the comments!
*Dear Grace & Parker provided me with these headbands free of charge. As always, all opinions expressed are my own* buy paxil online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/paxil-no-prescription.html no prescription

The Best Kids Scooter

Now that the weather is finally cooling down, we have been spending more time outside and really taking advantage of the cool mornings. Both of my kids love to be outdoors but our Atlanta summers can be so brutal, making it almost impossible to spend the day doing fun activities outside. We love going to our neighborhood park because there is hardly anyone there and my kids can act like lunatics and no one will judge me for being on my phone. #momlife
Henry has been obsessed with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for several months now. He even chose that theme for his 4th birthday, so when Pulse Safe Start sent him this TMNT scooter, he was ecstatic. It was very easy to assemble and took less than 5 minutes. It comes with a charger and holds a charge for a long time. Henry could not wait to try it out and since it was raining that day, we let him ride it in the house on our hardwoods. The wheels are so smooth and he mastered turning and zipping around corners in no time.
There is only one push button accelerator on the scooter which makes it so easy to use. Evelyn loves to ride it whenever her brother isn’t looking (however the recommended age is 3+). The extra-wide foot bed features a non-slip surface and is low to the ground to help prevent falls. Unlike most scooters, The Pulse Safe Start has 3 wheels to aid in balance and support. The scooter maintains a safe speed of 1.75mph so parents can feel comfortable knowing their child isn’t on their way to becoming a speed demon. buy priligy online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/priligy-no-prescription.html no prescription
With the holiday season approaching, this would make an excellent gift sitting under the tree with a shiny red bow. There are several different characters to select from including Disney Princesses, Minnie Mouse, Frozen, Cars, Spiderman, Paw Patrol, Dora and more. It’s super lightweight and easy to move and store. We load it up in our van all the time and let Henry ride around on our neighborhood basketball court so that he is away from cars and I don’t have a heart attack. buy remeron online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/remeron-no-prescription.html no prescription

 

You can find the Pulse Safe Start scooter on Amazon, Target, and Walmart. I’ve linked them all so you can find the best one for your kids. buy sinequan online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/sinequan-no-prescription.html no prescription
Thank you so much to Pulse Safe Start for providing us with the scooter. As always, all opinions are my own. If you’re looking for a rundown of some other great options, take a look at this list by Best Products Pro.

Chemical Free Baby Products

Becoming a mother instantly makes you a fierce protector of your children. From what they eat, to who is allowed to drive them in a car and especially the products that go on their skin. I have always wanted only natural and chemical free washes and shampoos for both my kiddos. Luckily there is no shortage of brands out there and ample options. Today I am sharing some of my favorite companies including  Good Bubble!
Tubby Todd Bath Co. 
This company has the best smelling bubble baths. The cranberry and mandarin wash smells like Christmas and my son even noticed how sweet the scent is. Usually, he is too busy playing or splashing water in his sister’s face to notice yummy smells. They have seasonal scents and I always stock up on the Fall & Winter bundles since those are my favorite months with the best smells.

 

 

The Honest Co. 
I don’t think there is a mother out there who hasn’t heard of Honest products, but just because they’ve been around for a while doesn’t mean I can’t include them. Their face + body lotion is a household staple. There is no scent, it’s lightweight, non-greasy and absorbs fast. I love the new pump packaging for their shampoo and body wash and their breath easy rub definitely helps when my kids start to get the sniffles, plus it smells incredible. I also keep their spray sunscreen in the car, which I highly recommend doing no matter what brand you use. Sunscreen is key for little one’s delicate skin and your own! buy valtrex online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/valtrex-no-prescription.html no prescription

 

Burt’s Bees Baby
Burt’s Bees was the first organic brand I started using when Henry was born, over four years ago. Their products have never let me down and I’ve used them for years on myself. I always add a few drops of their baby oil to the kids’ bath and it makes their skin so soft and moisturized. A few other favorites: Wash & Shampoo, Baby Wipes, and Bubble Bath.

 

I was introduced to this brand while pregnant with Henry. I use their fragrance-free bubble bath the most with the kids and love that it’s made with plant-based, certified organic ingredients and is free of perfumes, dyes, parabens, sulfates, etc. Babyganics make a wide range of products that extend outside of skincare. There is dish soap, toy & high chair cleaner, laundry detergent, etc. I’ve never been disappointed with any of their products. buy wellbutrin online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/wellbutrin-no-prescription.html no prescription

 

A few weeks ago I highlighted a newer company, Grace Mabel, and their range or products. They are also another favorite of mine. Head here to read more about them. I love finding out about new brands, what are some of your favorites? Happy last Monday of September! buy zithromax online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/zithromax-no-prescription.html no prescription
