Hi, I’m Brittany 👋

If you’re new here, welcome! I’m a Charleston mom of two boys who loves sharing affordable finds, press-on nails, family adventures, and little ways to make everyday life a little easier (and a little more fun).

Around here you’ll find budget-friendly recommendations, real-life mom moments, local adventures, and plenty of reminders that you don’t need a perfect life to enjoy it.

I’d love to get to know you too! Tell me something about yourself in the comments—where you’re from, how you found my page, or your favorite thing to do on the weekends. ❤️

✨ 2025 was full of growth, gratitude, and incredible partnerships ✨

I finally leaned into my LTK this year and it led to opportunities I’m so proud of.

Thank you to the brands I worked with — and to YOU for supporting me every step of the way 🤍
Here’s to what’s next!

Officially entered our homemade baby food era. 🥔🧡

Yesterday was Philip’s first homemade sweet potato purée, and I’d call it a success! I had so much fun using my baby food maker, and the best part was watching Aiden jump in to help feed his little brother.

Now I need ideas… what purée should we make next? 👇

I tossed this into my cart on a whim during my last e.l.f. order, and now I’m kicking myself for only buying one. 😂

This new e.l.f. Thirst Burst PlumpTide Lip Treatment is SO good. It gives my lips the perfect hydrated feel without being sticky, and the scent/flavor is honestly delicious. My lips have stayed soft for hours, and it’s already earned a permanent spot in my bag.

If you’re placing an e.l.f. order, add this to your cart—you’ll thank me later. 🤍

One of my favorite milestones so far. 🥹
Today I made Philip’s very first homemade purée—sweet potato! 🍠

I’ve been so excited to use my Momcozy Baby Food Maker because it steams and blends all in one machine, making homemade baby food quick and easy (which is exactly what this busy mom needs!).
If you’ve been thinking about making your own baby food, this has made the process so simple.

I’ve linked it in my LTK! 🤍#MomLife #BabyEssentials #HomemadeBabyFood #Momcozy

Part 2 of the stair transformation! 🪚

The carpet is officially gone, thanks to David jumping in to help speed things up. 🙌 Aiden also stopped by a couple of times to make sure we were doing everything to his standards… every project needs a general contractor. 😂

Now that I can finally see the original stairs, it’s time for the tedious part: pulling what feels like a million nails.

Slow progress is still progress. Part 3 is coming soon! 🤎

This is a great little upgrade if your car already has wired Apple CarPlay. 🙌

I found the hidden USB inside my Tahoe’s secret compartment and plugged in a wireless CarPlay adapter (after a suggestion on my last post).

Now my phone connects automatically every time I start the car—no more digging for a cable or plugging it in before every drive.

Such a small change, but it makes the whole car feel so much more convenient.
If you have a vehicle with wired CarPlay, this is definitely worth looking into!

Do you use wireless CarPlay already, or are you plugging your phone in every trip? 👇

POV: Your toddler thinks every bag is for him. 😂🥐

This was our first pastry pickup from Mercantile and Mash, and it definitely won’t be our last! We grabbed 2 surprise pastry bags through the new app we’ve been trying, and everything looked so good.

One thing I loved? If you’re local, they have a huge parking lot, which makes picking up downtown so much easier.

Now for the fun part… 👀

Can you guess how much each bag was worth before I reveal it? Drop your guess below! ⬇️

I finally stopped talking about it and started ripping up the carpet. 😂

Yes, there were what felt like a million nails and staples hiding underneath… but seeing the original stairs in such great condition has me even more excited to keep going.

This is definitely going to be a process, so consider this Part 1 of our stair makeover.

Follow along and let’s see how these old stairs turn out! 🏡✨

Confession: I thought my car was already pretty clean. 😅

Then they started detailing it…

It’s amazing how much of a difference someone makes when they actually have the time (and tools) to get into all the little spots you normally skip. The windows, cup holders, door pockets, pet fur… all the tiny details added up.

As a mom, the biggest win was that they came to me. I stayed inside with the boys while they worked, and Aiden had the best time watching them clean what he calls the “TV Car.” 😂

Now I’m curious… what’s the one spot in your car that somehow gets dirty no matter how often you clean it? 👇

I thought we were having a nice little story time… apparently he thought it was snack time. 📚😂

Every page made it approximately two seconds before it ended up in his mouth. I guess this is one way to become a book lover early. 🤍

Anyone else’s baby convinced that books are edible?

I’ve only had my Tahoe for a few months, and I’m somehow still discovering hidden features. 😂 I had no idea this compartment was there until today.

Did you already know about it, or am I not alone?

Middle school me would have thought this was the coolest thing I could ever own. 😂

One of my favorite parts of being an adult is buying the things that make you happy—even if they don’t make sense to anyone else.

This shirt was 100% worth it. 😅

Now I need to know… what’s your favorite “unnecessary” adult purchase? 👇

📚 Prime Day Kindle Deal!

If you’ve been thinking about getting a Kindle, this is one of the best prices I’ve seen! 🤍 As a busy mom, being able to read one-handed during naps, nursing sessions, or while my little one plays has helped me get back into reading.

I’ve been using mine constantly, and it’s easily one of my favorite purchases this year. If it’s been on your wishlist, Prime Day is a great time to grab one!

✨ Mermaid vibes without the salon price.

These are the Sanded press-on nails, and I don’t think the photos even do them justice. The soft velvet nude finish, pearl shimmer, and tiny gold seashell details make them perfect for summer, beach trips, or just adding a little something extra to everyday outfits.

I’ve been so impressed with how comfortable these are, and they give you a salon-quality look in just a few minutes. If you love neutral nails with a fun coastal twist, these are definitely worth grabbing.

🤍 Short almond shape
🐚 Velvet finish with pearl & gold shell details
💅 Waterproof, vegan & cruelty-free
✨ Up to 2 weeks of wear with proper application

I had no idea what would be inside, but I love a good surprise—especially when it involves pastries. 🥐✨

This was my first mystery bakery pickup, and I can’t wait to try everything that was inside. It all looked so good! 🤍

Would you let a bakery choose your order, or do you have to pick everything yourself?

If you’ve been curious about trying these surprise pickups, let me know! I have a link that gets you a discount on your first one.

Some of my favorite moments aren’t the big milestones—they’re the random dances in the kitchen, the smiles, and the way he looks at me like I’m his whole world. 💙

I know these days won’t last forever, so I’m soaking up every cuddle, every giggle, and every dance while I can.

What’s a little moment with your kids that you never want to forget? ✨

#MomLife #BoyMom #MotherhoodMoments #BabyBoy #MakingMemories

#LTKootd #LTKmomlife #LTKBaby

For less than $8, I’d say this mystery pickup was definitely worth it. 👏

This box came with savory pies, quiche, and cupcakes, and somehow it didn’t even make it 24 hours in our house. 😂

One of my favorite things about these surprise food pickups is that you never know exactly what you’re going to get, but we’ve found some really good local spots because of them.

Would you try a mystery food box, or do you need to know exactly what you’re getting first? 👇

P.S. If you’ve been curious about the app I use to find these surprise pickups, send me a message and I’ll send you my link!

If you’ve been thinking about getting a robot vacuum, Prime Day is one of the best times to buy one. 🤖✨

These are the three robot vacuums I’ve been watching because they can do so much more than just vacuum. From self-emptying stations to mopping features and smart mapping, they’re designed to save time and keep your floors cleaner with less effort.

Whether you’re dealing with kids, pets, everyday messes, or just want one less thing on your to-do list, these are worth checking out while they’re on sale.

🛒 I’ve linked all three options in my LTK so you can compare features and see which one fits your home best!

#LTKdayinmylife #LTKHome #LTKmomlife

Prime Day is one of my favorite times to grab baby gear at a discount, especially items I already use, have on my wishlist, or recommend to other moms.

I rounded up some of my top baby finds, including feeding essentials, travel must-haves, nursery favorites, and products that made life easier during the baby and toddler stages.

If you’re shopping for your own little one, building a registry, or looking ahead to future needs, these are the deals I’d be watching. 🩵

Everything is linked in my LTK so you can easily browse the sales before they’re gone!

Welcome to postpartum summer.

The drinks aren’t always finished.
The naps are unpredictable.
The to-do list can wait.

I’m soaking up the stroller walks, baby snuggles, and the little moments that I know I’ll miss someday. 💙

Meanwhile, I'm over here planning outings and making lists, and his highlight was riding the same merry-go-round horse over and over. 😂

My sisters have heard every bad decision, every overreaction, every random thought, and every story at least three times. 😂

They may not have degrees, but they’ve spent a lifetime listening, giving advice, and keeping me humble. Love them or hate them, sisters really are built-in best friends.

Tag your sister if she doubles as your therapist. 🤍

Well… this one is on me. 😂

I wanted to try DIVI’s Root Touch Up on a few of my thinning spots, but I accidentally ordered a shade that was way too light for my hair color.

The result? Let’s just say it wasn’t giving what I hoped it would give. 🤦🏼‍♀️

This isn’t a bad review of the product at all—I just picked the wrong shade.
If anything, this is your reminder to double-check the color before you order!

Have you ever bought the wrong shade of something and immediately regretted it?

When your baby asks what the plan is for the day… and the answer is a DIY project. 😂

I decided it was finally time to say goodbye to Agreeable Gray and give the kitchen a fresh new look with Peppercorn. Between the music, the paint roller, and a baby supervisor in the jumper, it turned into a pretty productive day.

Now tell me… are you team light walls or team dark and moody? 👇

Tuesday morning, I donated 1,000 ounces of breast milk to help NICU babies through the Mother’s Milk Bank. 💛 @milkbankco

And before anyone asks—no, my breastfeeding journey isn’t over! Philip still primarily nurses. I’ve just been incredibly blessed to be an overproducer, so this was all extra milk.

The sweetest part of the morning was getting to see Susanna. She was my lactation consultant for both Aiden and Philip when they were born, and we absolutely love her. It felt like such a full-circle moment having her there to receive this donation.

Breastfeeding and pumping haven’t always been easy, but being able to feed my baby and help other babies at the same time is something I’ll never take for granted.

Knowing this milk will help NICU families makes every pumping session worth it.
1,000 ounces donated and still going. 💙

The older I get, the more I appreciate places like this.

Some of my favorite childhood memories were made exploring the mountains, and now I get to bring my own kids to these same beautiful places and watch them experience it all for the first time.

No rush. No schedule. Just fresh mountain air, incredible views, and moments worth remembering.

Sometimes slowing down is exactly what we need.

🐾 A fun surprise showed up on our doorstep today for Holly! 💙

Chewy sent over a wellness box filled with products to support calm behavior, digestion, skin, coat, and joint health.
I always love discovering new pet products, especially ones that help keep our golden girl happy and healthy.

Linking everything from the box in case you’re curious about what Holly will be trying! 🐶✨

Aiden and I picked up another bakery surprise bag today and this one did not disappoint. 🥐✨

For less than $8, we brought home muffins, pastries, & cookies that would’ve cost so much more at full price. It’s quickly becoming one of our favorite little mom-and-son adventures.

If you love finding local food deals and helping reduce food waste, send me a message and I’ll share the link I use. 💛

Birthday plans at 34?

Give me cats, my siblings, my best friend, and a little bit of chaos. 🐈🤍

Spent my birthday at Pounce Cat Cafe soaking up all the kitty cuddles, making memories with some of my favorite people, and convincing myself that I definitely don’t need to bring a cat home. 😅

The older I get, the more I appreciate simple days filled with people I love. And apparently, a few furry friends too. 🐾

We used a few printable cards/tags from @the.lettervee and I honestly loved how easy they made everything feel. Aiden had the best time “helping” put everything together 😂
