I picked up a few summer workbooks for my kids to help bridge the gap between school years, and apparently I wasn't the only one excited about them because they found them and started working in them before school even ended. 😂 My plan is to incorporate a worksheet or two into our mornings this summer as part of our "Mom School" routine—a little bit of learning, a little bit of structure, and hopefully a little less screen time.

These beautiful striped Vans were a Mother's Day gift, and I've been wearing them constantly. They're neutral enough to pair with jeans, shorts, dresses, and skirts, making them one of the easiest shoes to grab on busy mornings. They're comfortable, timeless, and have quickly become one of my favorite pairs.

I finally tried The Pink Stuff after seeing so many people rave about it, and now I understand why. It completely transformed the old brass door knocker on our front door, and I also love using it to clean baked-on stains from pots and pans. It's one of those products that's surprisingly satisfying to use.

One of my goals this summer is to make my daily walks feel a little more intentional. I picked up this weighted vest while it was on sale and have been enjoying adding it to walks with the dog. I chose the 12-pound version, which feels challenging enough to notice but not so heavy that I avoid using it. As I enter my 40s, I'm focusing more on feeling strong, healthy, and confident—and this has been a fun addition to that journey.

Art projects are so much more enjoyable when cleanup is easy. These silicone painting mats protect our table, roll up for simple storage, and include a magnetic collapsible water cup that's surprisingly spill-resistant. Since we don't have room for easels, they've been the perfect solution for creative afternoons at home.

Dog owners know that one of the least glamorous parts of pet ownership is cleaning up the yard before mowing day. This magnetic poop bag dispenser has been attached to our rain spout for years, and I finally got around to installing it properly this month. It holds multiple rolls of bags and makes cleanup quick and convenient. Sometimes it's the simplest solutions that make everyday life easier.

We've been trying these mood support gummies with our kids, and I've honestly been impressed. I originally started giving them to my oldest to help support focus and emotional regulation throughout the day, and I've noticed a positive difference in those tougher afternoon hours. They're now a regular part of our morning routine.

I've been reaching for these Summer Fridays products every day lately. The gel cleanser is incredibly gentle, the peptide eye cream feels so nourishing, and the Butter Balm gives my lips the prettiest hint of color. I also love the lip oil when I want a little extra shine and longer-lasting color. They're simple products that make my everyday routine feel a little more luxurious.

#LTKgrwm #LTKBeauty #LTKmorningroutine

I grabbed this giant coloring roll for summer break and already know it's going to be a hit. It's a simple, inexpensive way to keep the kids entertained without screens, and I love that multiple kids can color together at the same time. For around $5, this one feels like a major win for summer boredom busters.

If you've been following along on Instagram, you probably saw the reel of me and the kids mixing up my daily greens this month. I genuinely didn't expect to love these as much as I do. As someone who is very picky about greens powders (if it tastes too healthy, I'm out 😂), the Pineapple & Lime flavor mixed into orange juice has been surprisingly easy to drink. I've been adding it to my breakfast or lunch routine and have noticed feeling more energized and clear-headed. Whether it's perimenopause, mom life, or just life in general, I'll take all the support I can get for brain fog and low energy these days!

This apple slicer continues to earn its place in my kitchen. Unlike most apple slicers that create large wedges, this one cuts apples into 16 smaller slices that are perfect for kids. The built-in bottom cover makes removing the slices so easy, and it handles even large apples without any issues. We use it constantly for snack time.

These flexible cutting mats are one of those kitchen tools I reach for almost every day. The non-slip backing keeps them securely in place while chopping, and I love that I can easily bend them to transfer ingredients directly into a pan or bowl. They come in a set of four and take up almost no storage space.

These water shoe sneakers completely changed my opinion of water shoes. They're lightweight, breathable, and comfortable enough to wear all day without giving me blisters. I've worn them at the beach, water parks, and while creek-stomping over rocky terrain, and the drainage holes keep water from pooling inside. If you're spending lots of time near the water this summer, these are absolutely worth packing.

Girl moms, gather around because this little tool is life-changing. If you've ever struggled to remove those tiny rubber hair elastics without pulling hair, this is the answer. It safely slices through the band without damaging hair, which means no more tears, tangles, or wrestling matches at bedtime. One of those tiny purchases that makes a huge difference.

One of my favorite ways to slow down during the summer is spending an afternoon in this hammock. We originally bought it for camping, but it's become a backyard favorite, too. The included stand makes it easy to set up almost anywhere, and I love that I can take it down just as quickly when I'm finished. I have the beige striped version with lace trim, and it's such a pretty addition to our outdoor space.

#LTKdayinmylife #LTKmomlife #LTKHome

If you're a dress-and-skirt girl in the summer, this is your sign to grab one of these. The Megababe Thigh Rescue stick has been a staple for me for years. It glides on easily like deodorant and helps prevent uncomfortable chafing on hot days. It's one of those products that isn't glamorous, but once you try it, you'll wonder how you lived without it.

Okayyyy... this little gadget is way more fun than it has any right to be. 😂 This electric wine opener effortlessly removes corks with the push of a button and honestly makes me feel fancy every time I use it. No struggling, no broken corks, no awkward twisting. Just press a button and let it do the work. For under $16, it's also a fantastic gift idea for anyone who enjoys hosting or unwinding with a glass of wine after a long day.

I've been trying to be more intentional about skincare this month, and these Pixi products have made it feel easy and approachable. I also appreciate that Pixi includes videos showing exactly how to use their products because as someone who isn't naturally a skincare expert, that extra guidance is incredibly helpful.

These freeze pop holders make such a difference for little hands! We used them a ton this month while the kids were under the weather and wanted something cold and soothing. I love that they cover more of the freeze pop than most holders, which means fewer cold fingers and fewer sticky hands. We have both colorful and patterned versions, and they've held up really well.

Not exactly the most glamorous favorite find, but one of the most practical. Every family should have designated sick bins. When the stomach bug hits, no one wants to be searching for a bowl or sacrificing a popcorn bucket from the kitchen. These colorful bins have saved us more than once and are one of those products I'm always thankful to have tucked away when we need them.

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids #LTKHome

This machine was purchased during a middle-of-the-night stomach bug emergency, and honestly? Zero regrets. It cleaned stains and odors better than I expected and has already earned its place in our house. I especially love the self-cleaning hose feature, and it even helped remove an old stain from my office chair that I had completely given up on. If you have kids, pets, or carpets, this one is worth considering.

POV: you're a robot vacuum trying to survive two kids, a dog, and snack time. 😂 This vacmop has quickly become one of my favorite home upgrades. It vacuums and mops while I focus on literally anything else, and it's been amazing for staying ahead of crumbs, dust, dog hair, and all the mysterious floor debris that appears in a house with kids. It's definitely a splurge, but after using it for a few weeks, I completely understand why people rave about robot vacuums.

This little crossbody has been such a cute go-to for spring. It’s perfect for Sunday outfits or quick errands and fits all the essentials—phone, keys, sunglasses, lip balm, and still a little room for extra odds and ends.

These have been such a meaningful Easter tradition for us already. The kids love opening each egg and discovering the little symbol inside while hearing a part of the Easter story.

One of my most-used little tools around the house. It opens boxes so easily, stays on my magnetic board by the entryway, and it’s under $10.
