Screen-free summer meets Danny Go! with these amazing Tonies sets from Walmart. We’ve been using them for several months already and the kids LOVE THEM! So affordable and they have some of their favorite Danny Go songs. Each Tonie has about 40 minutes of songs!

I found THE mom short of the summer! I was so close to snagging the viral target agolde dupes, but I just have such bad luck with denim shorts that have a split seam. Anyone else get SO tired of the seams curling after washing?

Enter THESE denim shorts for only $18! They are the perfect medium wash (this post has no filter or color editing) and have a good amount of stretch. Even better is that the waist is more fitted for the perfect curvy look, no gaping waistband 🙌🏽 and the ideal 5" length. The rise is right at my belly button, so I'd say it is medium-high.

I kept my true size (5'8.5" and 145-150 lbs and got the size 8) Snag them now!!!

Easter basket for sister!

I am LOVING finding cute girly gifts!!! Snagged this sweet seersucker set to keep diaper changes easy (and I love that it doesn't have a ruffle butt!!) and some little flower sunnies. Also had to grab our favorite towel in pink! This thing is the REAL DEAL-- We have the 40x72 for the adults and 24x48 for the kids.

Easter baskets for the boys!

Adding in some extras for our boy starting T-Ball, our creative buddy, and our book worm who just wants to keep up with his brothers!

These toddler sunglasses are the BEST and they think they look just like daddy, and I love the muted colors of sunglass straps with a shorter length.

A must-have for stomach bugs! We spray this on anything and everything. It's as effective at killing germs as bleach (EPA certified to kill 99.9% of viruses, bacteria, mold, and mildew). Even better is that it's completely nontoxic and safe to spray directly on things we use for babies and kids-- just spray and let it sit and dry! Truly, this is the best disinfectant spray for sickness and I also use it to sanitize nearly every single day. We've kept it stocked since 2021 and will never go without it!!!

Each capsule is just mixed with water and lasts 2 weeks in the bottle. The capsules are also 15% off with amazon subscription, making it less than $1.50 per bottle!

These portable sand boxes take one of the top spots for best present this year! All of the construction toy fun with less mess and less sibling fighting! Each brother has their own box with identical trucks and they stay occupied for so long. Also so amazing for our sensory seekers!

#LTKKids #LTKmomlife #LTKHome

Some of my favorite gifts!!

Presents that teach about the outdoors and wildlife, give practice for lifelong skills, and foster a love for the woods. There is nothing better!

the most incredible, affordable, realistic Christmas tree!

we're on Christmas #5 with this tree and are absolutely still loving it. the tips of the needles taper and there is almost no shedding when we pull it out and put it up year after year. I make sure to take my time fluffing and it ends up looking absolutely incredible-- super full and still so easy to decorate! we have the 7.5 ft tree for our 9 ft ceiling height.

currently on sale for the lowest price it will typically go during the year! use the toilet paper roll hack and it will look AND smell like the real thing, with less maintenance and mess ☺️

Found our new go-to shorts! These shorts come in size xs-xl (fits true to size-- I'd say xs definitely fits like a size 6 but don't swallow our 4 year old, so definitely will be what he wears next year) and FOURTEEN colors! They remind me so much of the prepletic sheffield shorts and properly tied court shorts but have an additional inner drawstring for extra waist adjustment 🎉 They're also slightly longer with a 5 inch inseam, so perfect for tall kiddos or even school uniform! Best of all? Less than a quarter of the price of the others!!!! Perfect for boys getting dirty everywhere they go!

Family photo looks!

The earth tones we picked would complement nearly any shoot location and will look so good framed in our home! We went for a base of neutrals and added greens and blues, but wanted to make sure it wasn't tooooo matchy-matchy!

Jack's sweet green Sophie and Lucas market bubble was purchased from a local boutique.

Walker's button-down is from Kevin's, a local men's store and has the same tri-color plaid as the boys' shirts.

The sweetest boy pjs from target!

Carters pajamas (already such a great deal) are currently BOGO 50% off at target, so you can get two pairs for $15! I love these muted colors that can be worn year round and will be putting the Christmas Tree ones in our Christmas Eve gift!

For sizing reference, my boys wear 5T, 3T, and 18m and will fit them from now well into summer!

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKHoliday #LTKKids

BOO!

surprised some friends and neighbors with boo baskets and everything is from target! best part is that the rest can be used for snacks, trick or treat baskets, or a halloween party!!

New FAVORITE for boys everyday shorts!

The quality is so amazing and there are so many options to choose from! Timeless seersucker and gingham patterns and classic color combinations (including navy and orange for Auburn gameday!!). We ordered these-- plus a beautiful kelly green gingham check-- in a 4T and the size chart is super helpful!

Can't wait to upgrade for little brothers and continue to get bigger sizes as our oldest grows. This will be a repeat purchase for sure!!

Prime Day 2024 picks for the book shelf!

We've been doing a book shelf overhaul in preparation for homeschooling, and a lot of trial and error has led to a pretty solid list of favorites! Linking one per "series" so I can include more authors, but just know that we have most books in every set I'm recommending and LOVE them!

kids manners book, toddler airplane book, educational books, christian toddler books, classic read alouds, timeless kids books

#LTKHome #LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKKids

Prime Day 2024 picks for the playroom!

these are all items we've used and love (except this wooden play gym, which we just ordered!)

we try to keep things minimal but boys are also SO physical, so they have to be able to get their energy out. we keep a mix of toys to help with gross and fine motor as well as their interests!

indoor wooden play gym, toddler fireman outfit role play, realistic truck and trailer toy, functional music toys, fisher price little people, toddler cleaning toys, educational toys, durable toys, boy playroom

#LTKKids #LTKHome #LTKSaleAlert

Our favorite books over the past few months have been the Training Young Hearts series by Abbey Wedgeworth. They make the gospel so approachable for kids and they are just adorable! They also talk about common not-so-kind behaviors we all encounter with our toddlers. I find myself repeating the truths from these books all day and my boys are starting to understand the WHY behind their choices. All around a GREAT choice for the playroom bookshelf!!

#LTKFamily #LTKKids

Timeless heirloom portraits with an iPhone??

This first-of-its-kind lightroom preset has been artfully crafted to enhance and transform a photo taken with an iPhone into a print-ready heirloom portrait. Over the years, this product can save a family so much money and preserve little ones' precious features in photo form. It also comes with super detailed instructions to get the best portraits possible and my top recommendations for heirloom outfits at varying price points and both quality AND look-for-less frames.

The best way to make your new construction home have more personality? Change out the porch fixtures and add to your flower beds! Instant upgrade to the curb appeal and it just makes for an inviting space!

We've slowly been adding outdoor items to give the timeless southern look we love. All of these classic pieces are from Amazon!!

Now to find the perfect haint blue for the ceiling 😍

#LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKStyleTip #LTKHome

Southern front porch MUSTS!

Living in a new-construction home, we are constantly looking for ways to add our style and character. We live in a smart home community and gas is a no-go, but I adore the look of gas lanterns on the front porch!! These led bulbs fit normal candelabra fixtures and look incredible up close and even better from the sidewalk! They should last decades and cost nearly nothing to leave running!

I am loving how our front porch feels having these flickering led bulbs paired with patriotic bunting for the fourth!

#LTKVideo #LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKHome

Our FAVORITE swimsuits (and one of our favorite stores!!) are BOGO FREE!

Oaks Apparel is having a buy one get one free sale SITEWIDE! Use code BOGO24 at checkout.
