Brushing Baby/Toddler Teeth

You GUYS – this stresses me out!! I’m posting about it in case you feel the same way. My babies got their first teeth SO early – I think their first bottom teeth poked through when they were only 4 months old, which for them adjusted is less that 2 months. How crazy is that? And after that they all came so fast, so that now at 18 months they have all but their two…

The California Super Bloom with Romy and Piper

This last weekend, both my little brother and sister ended up in town visiting. She lives in D.C. and he goes to school at the University of Utah, so having them here together was so special for me. We joked about how different their visits are now than they used to be – I feel self conscious about the fact that we move a lot slower with the babies. But I also take pride in…

Our Favorite High Chairs from Micuna

This is one of my most asked about pieces of baby gear, so I’m finally throwing up a post about it! Even before the babies were born I picked out these high chairs – the Ovo from Micuna – because they’re just so beautiful. Even the packaging they show up in is chic ;). I’ve had a lot of questions from people concerned about the smaller, round tray that the high chair comes with. Honestly,…

Romy + Piper’s First Ski Day

Romy and PIper Skiing | Roxy Baby Snow Suit
We’ve been dying to get to the mountains with Romy and Piper this winter, and we finally made it. Blake’s been joking about how he wanted to ski with the girls – one in front and one on his back – and he got to make it happen! Saturday we took them up to Sundance Resort (if you’ve been a reader for a while you know this is one of our very favorite places –…

Food Ideas for Babies and Toddlers

Baby Food | Food ideas for Babies and Toddlers
I’ve been hesitant to post about this for multiple reasons. One main reason is that I don’t feed my babies perfectly, and I don’t want you to think I pretend to! I have to admit there are days I’d be a little embarrassed if someone knew what my babies had eaten ;). Another reason is that it’s tough to open yourself up for criticism, and I know there’s a lot people could say about this…

Battling a Baby Cold

One of my biggest fears since bringing the girls home from the hospital is that they’d get sick, particularly Piper. What could be a normal cold for someone else can be much more serious for her with her lung issues. Both girls are still at risk for RSV this year, but don’t qualify for the shot that would give them the antibodies to help them fight it. I’ve been a crazy person trying to keep…

Weekly FAQ | High Chairs, Baby Monitor, White Henley, Milk vs. Formula, etc.

micuna ovo high chair
I said I was going to make this a weekly thing back in May, and then I only did it once (insert eye roll here). Someone tell me HOW is it already October?!?! Here’s another attempt at doing this weekly, starting today! I’m going to answer the most frequent that I get in emails, comments, and direct messages throughout the week in hopes that it helps others who might have the same questions! These might…

Little Things that Make Me Feel Like My Own Human ;)

DSTLD Black Silk Blouse | Womens Destructed Mid Rise Skinny Jeans In Medium Vintage | Palms to Pines
Since having the babies, my world revolves around them. Sometimes I’m just happy that way, and it really can be easier to lose myself in that than to snap out of it and do something for ME. I’ve found a few little things that help me stay sane and present, and make me feel good and human (and therefore better as a mama!) This might sound pathetic to some of you, but to someone chasing…

Some Favorite Diaper Bags from MZ Wallace

I don’t know why I think it’s so funny that I find myself out (without the babies) but still carrying the “diaper bag”! I’ve just found some bags that I really like, so I love to throw my stuff in them as a carry-all, too. I think I’ve forgotten what it’s like to have a normal (smaller) bag that’s just mine ;). Since I get lots of questions about the diaper bags I love for…

Cute (Not Cheesy) Disney Outfits

Cute Disney Outfits
A lot of readers were asking about where we got our Disney apparel, so I decided to throw up a post to share some of my favorites. While you can find some really cute stuff in the park, it can be pricey and the fits usually aren’t great. There’s so much good Disney stuff to be found at places I love to shop normally, and if you’re wanting to wear Disney stuff to the park…
