✨ Want more tips for realistic WFH mom life? Hi! I’m your girl. Glad you’re here.

A simple activity I can set up once, pull out when I need, and keeps him occupied and learning while I sip my coffee…yes, please! 🙌🏻

I share our Book Basket regularly in stories, because it’s my little guys favorite way to start the day…and mine too. 😏

He’ll sit at my feet and pull each one out of the basket, flip through the pages, and point and repeat words and sounds. It’s been a total game changer.

Now that our little guy is teething, we’ve added a few things to our bedtime routine that help him sleep peacefully and comfortably…including sleeping with his Sophie giraffe teether and rocket ship teether. 🥰

We’re getting ready to start solids. Here’s a few of the things we’ve got prepared and are definitely must haves...

#LTKBaby #LTKKids #LTKFamily

These animal tails crinkle books are my baby’s new favorite. With so many textures and bright colors, they’re a great learning tool. And they can be attached to a play gym, car seat, stroller, etc.

Baby slept almost 8 hours straight last night at 11 weeks old! 🙌🏻 I feel like a new mama! 💃🏻

Here’s some of our bedtime favorites including our bassinet, sleep sacks, sound machine, & more! And the diapers that don’t leak and held what felt like 20 pounds of pee overnight. 😂😅

#LTKKids #LTKBump #LTKBaby

Read this book at bedtime tonight for the first time and it’s certainly a new favorite. The story and the artwork are beautiful. I’ve linked a few of our other favorite kids books as well. 🥰

Now that our little guy is 10 weeks old, we’ve had plenty of time now to practice and refine our evening routine for what works for us…and it makes the evenings so much more enjoyable. ⬇️

Here’s generally what we do in the evenings and our must-have products…

Last wake time for baby: we do a bottle, bath, massage, diaper change, pjs and sleep sack/swaddle, and a little playtime before he goes to sleep while being held. We’ll read books and once he’s out I trim his nails. 💅🏻

We’ll snuggle on the couch as a family and watch tv during his first sleep stretch…usually from 7ish-10ish. This gives us time together and time to enjoy our favorite shows…which on this night were St Denis Medical and Ghosts. 😂😂

Closing Shift-
Then in between feedings, playtime, and sleeping for baby, I’ll do the following which I swear keeps the house afloat….
Load the dishwasher, run the machine
Wash and sterilize nipples and pump parts
Restock feeding station and prep next bottle & gripe water/clean and refill the Baby Brezza
Clean up the kitchen/change out the trash
Pack the diaper bag for next day if needed
Restock the nursery (diapers, wipes, etc)
Prep bedside nursery- set humidifier, place heating pad in bassinet to warm it baby 🥰, restock diaper and wipes, etc
And just a general declutter around the house

10 p.m. bottle- change diaper in the dark, feed, burp, and back to sleep (no playtime)

Around 1 am- final bottle in our room while we listen to stories on the Hatch before it switches over to brown noise for bedtime. Little one gets snuggles and then laid down in his bassinet to sleep.

If we’re lucky ☘️, he’ll skip his 4 am feeding and sleep until 7am. But, this is a new development as of 8 or 9 weeks of age.

Keep practicing and refining your routine, baby will learn what to expect (which is great cause they thrive on routine), you’ll be able to complete your tasks with your eyes closed (which may be a good thing 🙃), and it will get easier. 🙌🏻

Hang in there! You’ve got this.
