Tutu cute! Our baby girl at 1 month old on her Topponcino that we all love!

This tutu cute dress was one of my absolute favorite 0-3 months outfits! Plus, this headband was a favorite for her first 12 months, and we have it in many colors.

Topponcinos are great for a safe place to put a baby while in view (while doing laundry, dishes, cooking, working, etc.), for siblings and visitors to hold the baby on, and for the baby to lay on while watching a mobile or playing with a toy.

40% Off Toniebox! This has been one of our baby girl’s favorite toys for the last 10 months! We got it for Christmas at 8 months old and she’s now 18 months old! Here our baby girl is crawling to the Toniebox at 9 months old!

She loves this Laurie Berkner Tonie! We only use Tonies with our baby under adult supervision.

Tonieboxes and Tonies are recommended for ages 3+ due to size, magnets, and more so use under your discretion and under adult supervision.

Currently both our kids, ages 18 months old and 7 years old, love the Toniebox!

The acrylic bin works great for organizing Tonies! We put the Toniebox and bin with Tonies on the bookshelf we have in our living room, and it works great!

Our 7-year-old son can reach the shelf easily but our baby cannot reach it.

I love this pretty rose gold suitcase!

Also, these packing cubes (I linked the newer version) make packing and staying organized while traveling so much easier! You can put the packing cubes directly into drawers when you arrive at your destination.

It makes packing and unpacking quick and easy for the entire family! My 7 year old son has been unpacking his items from the suitcase for a long time now and these help him.

This rotating wooden art supply organizer is awesome! It works so well for organizing pencils, markers, colored pencils, highlighters, dry erase markers, school supplies, and other art supplies for kids or adults.

My 7-year-old son loves it and carries to the kitchen table and back to the cabinet easily!

It’s a high quality, attractive, and organizes a large amount of art supplies while keeping it quick and easy to find.

I also am absolutely in love with this reclining glider, and it’s on sale! It’s so comfortable for breastfeeding, cuddling, and rocking our baby girl to sleep.

This breastfeeding pillow has been my go-to and favorite with both of my babies! It’s works the best for tall breastfeeding moms out of the many breastfeeding pillows I’ve tried. I’m 5’8” for reference.

Before & After LEGO Organization! So happy with how this organization project turned out. I did this organization project a couple of years ago and it has continued to work well.

Caleb is super-excited and keeps thanking me for getting it and organizing this LEGO with him! These Target storage bins are affordable, easy-to-use, and look great.

This is not our son’s only LEGO. He has some mixed-up colors for open-ended play in a LEGO box on his shelf.

The LEGO shown was actually my husband’s LEGO from when he grew up. It arrived from England in the large brown box. So, we thought it would be fun for Caleb to have LEGO organized by color to use as well.

Caleb also has LEGO kits that we keep in his toy rotation shelf for when he wants to build a kit.

We are obsessed (and our baby is, too!) with this super-soft and beautiful baby blanket!

We had this blanket in blue for our first baby and we knew we had to get it for our second baby in pink!

This headband is so pretty and it seems comfortable. It fit Arabella since day 1 and it fit great until 12 months old when Arabella started pulling headbands off her head.

Our 18-month-old loves this set of 20 baby books! She has loved them since 8 months old when we bought them! They are Montessori-friendly and each page has a picture of the item and the word or words saying what the item is (for example, the books of fruits has picture of an apple and the word “apple” below the picture).

Each book is a small size but has quite a few pages. The small physical size is appealing to babies.

I currently am not using the IT Cosmetics CC as I stopped using it before trying to get pregnant with our second baby whom I am still breastfeeding. In the IT Cosmetics CC I wear the color fair and light. I wear fair when I’m not tan with a fake tan.

The foundation I wear at the moment is the Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 in the color Formosa.

Topponcinos are so great for older siblings to help hold their new baby sibling! Our Topponcino worked great for Caleb to hold his sister for the first time and holding her at home after especially as a newborn baby!

Topponcinos are also good for any visitors as it’s less startling for the baby to be transferred when on a Topponcino.

This Topponcino is actually one we had from our first baby but I linked the organic cotton Topponcino we ended up getting for our second baby so we had additional Topponcinos! They get used so much in the first few months especially from holding the baby to placing the baby on the Topponcino.

This little miracle of ours! We are all so in love with precious Baby Arabella! 💗

If you’re debating whether or not to do a newborn hospital photoshoot, I definitely recommend it if it’s offered. You can check with the hospital ahead of time and see if they have a photographer or service that takes photos when you’re in the hospital after having a baby. The photography service that takes photos at our hospital in San Diego typically takes the photos on the first full day after a vaginal birth and two days after a c-section. Also, some photographers will come into the hospital to take photos, but you would have to book it ahead of time, and then let them know when you’ve had your baby.

I loved having a matching mommy robe and baby swaddle that I bought ahead of time (I also linked the maternity nightgown I wore under the robe). I also got our 6 year old son a best bro t-shirt. Tom packed a shirt he had and liked in the hospital bag.

In addition, I’m so glad I brought so many swaddles, bows, and hats in our hospital bag for the newborn hospital photoshoot! I thought I had really overpacked but they all got used, and I love how they look in the photos! Plus, they’ve been used since we’ve been home. Swaddles can be used for swaddling, blankets, nursing covers, and more as well.

We got lucky that the photographer we were given took tons of photos with all the different hats/bows, swaddles/blankets, and props! This wouldn’t always be the case during a professional photoshoot because they often have a limited amount of time and photos they take. Even if you only get a few photos, I think it’s worth it to have some special photos of your baby.
