Been wearing these swimsuits on repeat allll summer long! They’re comfy, flattering, and true to size

Bebe’s first Easter 🥲 London will be ONE next month, so shopping for her little Easter basket has been fun! I can’t wait to spend a lot of time outside as it warms up ☀️ here’s a bunch of cutie, but practical, items to fill your babe’s Easter basket up with!

#LTKKids #LTKSpringSale #LTKBaby

Easter Basket time 😍 I LOVE making my kids Easter baskets— I think because I try to stick with a spring/summer theme and it gets me looking forward to when we can spend more time outside together!! Here’s some ideas for your “big kids” aka little kids aka early elementary school age lol

Bebe baskets coming next!!

#LTKSpringSale #LTKKids #LTKSeasonal

Babe wake up spring at Target is cute af 👀 I’m here for all the blues. Tons of discounts too!! 25% off sandals, clothing, accessories, and swim

#LTKMidsize #LTKSpringSale #LTKSeasonal

It was time to get London some new clothes for the end of winter into spring and summer 🥲 can’t believe my baby is already almost one. I don’t want to talk about it.

But I did find the CUTEST outfits on Old Navy for her. It’s been one of my favorite places to shop for all the kids because they’re always having a sale, there’s really cute designs most of the time, and the quality/textures are 👌🏼

#LTKBaby #LTKSaleAlert #LTKKids

I LOVE these craft kits for our kiddos! Honestly the price is CRAZY cheap for how high quality the product always is. Grabbed a couple for little Valentines basket cuties and I can’t decide if I want this dragon for my bookshelf or if I’ll give it to my son 😂🧐☠️

#LTKFamily #LTKGiftGuide #LTKKids

Valentine’s Day is for the girlies 💕 Target knows what they’re doing… but when do they not tbh 🤤

#LTKSeasonal #LTKMidsize #LTKParties

Prioritizing protein has been a huge part of my weight loss and muscle gain. I’m getting 100-150g/day and it’s helped with recovery as I push it, fueled my body, and kept me fuller for longer.

Do I prefer to get my protein organically from natural sources? Yes (as I’m literally shoving grass fed beef from a local farmer into my mouth) but my priority right now is choosing protein over reaching for something that won’t fuel my body or its recovery and convenience is of the essence 👌🏼 also I’ve always had a sweet tooth and it might as well benefit me in some sort of capacity 😂

Stocking up on some of my favorite grab and go high protein snacks while they’re BOGO 25%!

Also. Popcorn? Not on sale. But one of my fav low calorie snacks

#LTKActive #LTKSaleAlert #LTKMidsize

Did I find the most incredible and affordable reading chair? Yes.

Did I realize as I was assembling it I was missing two boxes? Also yes.

BUT I’m going to go out on a limb and say this isn’t normal and we can blame strikes and bad weather on the wonky delivery.

Still highly recommend this cozy chair! I searched far and wide for a chair that was large, comfortable, and also less than $600. Seemed IMPOSSIBLE honestly. But here we are!

Also tagged are some of my fav items to take cozy reading to the next level.

#LTKHome #LTKSeasonal #LTKFamily

Baby’s first Valentine’s Day ♥️ any reason to celebrate really. But valentines aesthetic has always been *chefs kiss* to me and Target knows what they’re doing. If that makes me basic… call me that girl.

#LTKKids #LTKSeasonal #LTKBaby

Gifts for the kindle girly in your life 💖

Alt caption: the kindle girly starter pack— set your bookish babe up for success.

Really though, I’ve always been a physical book reader… but because we travel so much I (reluctantly) gave the kindle a go and now I’m HOOKED. You can’t beat the convenience and ease!

#LTKHome #LTKTravel #LTKGiftGuide

My all time fav tanks are on sale!! They’re spendy for a basic tank— but truly worth it because they’re SO flattering, don’t stretch out but are super comfortable. Stocking up on my fav colors and grabbing a couple more 👀 they have a regular and a cropped version

#LTKMidsize #LTKCyberWeek #LTKSaleAlert

My personal fav sale of the year is happening— Target’s Buy Two Get One Free Book Sale!! I have a million more suggestions on top of these… but here’s my Romantic Fantasy Starter Kit 😋 I highly recommend any of these series to get started on your fantasy reading addiction! 📚

#LTKGiftGuide #LTKSaleAlert #LTKxPrimeDay

Recent Amazon purchases I 10/10 recommend 👌🏼 we have quite the random hodgepodge of stuff in here, but these are all recent purchases that have made…

1. Me happy or

2. My life easier this past month.

Enjoy!

#LTKBaby #LTKHome #LTKMidsize

I promise you, there’s no better gift for a Kindle owner than a holder and page turner. Bonus points for the cutest + most functional water bottle

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome #LTKFindsUnder50

I did it. I found the best tank top. I am OBSESSED with the fit of this plus it comes in TONS of colors! A little pricy for a tank, but well worth it. I’ve never found a more flattering fit! This is the shorter crop, but I also have the longer ones too.

Linking some of my other recent Amazon favs too!

#LTKStyleTip #LTKMidsize #LTKFindsUnder50

I’m aging myself by this admission but this shoe organizer is sparking JOY. We keep our shoes in the garage because we’re team no shoes inside the house but I was tired of my less worn shoes getting dusty so I was on the hunt for a shoe organizer with a door that wasn’t one million dollars 🫠 and I FOUND HER. Would it survive outside? Absolutely not. But this is perfect for in the garage or a closet!

#LTKBacktoSchool #LTKShoeCrush #LTKHome

When I say I’m OBSESSED with this dress 😮‍💨 sooo flattering! Obviously comfortable + such pretty color options. I’m off to buy more! Heads up: it took weeks to get 😑 100% worth it though!

Linking some other items I grabbed recently! I’ve been struggling to dress my body postpartum but these have all been 👌🏼

#LTKFamily #LTKMidsize #LTKFindsUnder50

The pool is DONE 😍 we’ve been practically living in it + having friends over nonstop to enjoy it with us. Linking some of my fav things we’ve bought so far! (Also this swimsuit is legit SOO flattering! It’s making me feel a lot more put together postpartum)

#LTKFamily #LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

How I’m keeping my kids busy while they’re inside this summer: gem art 😍 I mean sparkles + their fav characters… say less. These are challenging but doable!

#LTKKids #LTKFamily #LTKSeasonal

After having kids my lashes all but disappeared + became so stumpy?! I never had eyelash goals but they turned nonexistent. I’ve tried many lash serums over the years + wanted to invest in a good one postpartum knowing I wouldn’t be able to keep up eyelash extensions. I can’t believe the difference from using it consistently this the past month! My lashes are sooo much thicker and they’re definitely getting longer. I’m shook.

I went to buy another tube + saw the smaller size is $18 off right now!! I’m def stocking up

#LTKSummerSales #LTKSaleAlert #LTKBeauty

This tiny tent is a must for summer!! Super lightweight and easy to fold up flat into a zipper bag— we’ll be taking ours back and forth between the river and our pool! There is a netted window in the back, but as I would pop my head in there I thought it was hot so I had the portable fan going too (the babies seemed unbothered, but on hotter days I could see the fan being a must)

The portable fan is another summer baby fav though! I’ve been taking it EVERYWHERE and even got a second one to have on my nightstand to point directly on me 😂

#LTKBaby #LTKBump #LTKKids

OBSESSED with this cutie tiny tutu outfit! The material is nice + light and soooo perfect for summer 🩰 and that price 👌🏼 also I’ve had this changing mat for all three kids + I love it! The germaphobe in me loves how it folds up too

#LTKKids #LTKBump #LTKBaby

Throwing together this teacher gift was so fun! Gift giving + receiving is my love language so shopping for the people who pour into our kids is my fav. I think most people are out of school now (today’s my daughter’s last day!) but this would be such a cute gift for summer camps or any thank you really

#LTKParties #LTKKids #LTKSeasonal

I couldn’t believe the price on this 😱 going to keep it by the pool so baby can sit in the shade while mama gets some sun 😎 also going to be perfect to bring to the lake!

Also there's mesh netting in the back for airflow 👌🏼

#LTKKids #LTKBump #LTKBaby

I get stopped multiple times everyone I’m grocery shopping and I don’t blame them because this is hands down one of the most brilliant baby accessories I’ve ever seen. No more trying to stuff everything in the bottom of the stroller or the carseat taking up 75% of the cart.

The price had me hesitant at first but it’s worth every penny!! The quality is top notch and I love how sturdy but soft the hammock is. This will def be a gift I get all my mama friends!

#LTKKids #LTKBaby #LTKBump

Baby’s first Ren Faire ⚔️ I am OBSESSED with this dress + I need to find every excuse in the book to wear it. I was going for pirate vibes but then I quickly felt like Poppy from the Blood and Ash series. But you could totally wear this for anything renaissance or fae! It’s so comfortable, flattering, and breastfeeding friendly.

I added some other cuties I was eyeing as well! Happy shopping, fellow fantasy freaks 🤓

#LTKSeasonal #LTKMidsize #LTKFindsUnder50

The suns back in the PNW 😍 which got me searching Amazon for some cutie baby clothes (my motto this summer will be suns out, rolls out)

If you just grab one thing, I highly recommend these bows!! They’re lightweight and the nylon is nice + stretchy/not tight whatsoever.

#LTKBump #LTKBaby #LTKKids

Scouts honor, I found THE BEST nursing bra. It’s so hard to find one that’s *very* supportive, functional, and yet comfortable. This one hits all three and the price is RIGHT 💰 Also a huge bonus is all of the hooks in the back— very easy to size up and down as your weight fluctuates PP. So many colors too! Basically I’m in love

#LTKBaby #LTKBump #LTKMidsize

Sparkly lip gloss that isn’t sticky + has a fresh minty finish? Enough said.

The 90s kid in me needs ALL the colors now 😍 but this one is perfectly neutral and works for all looks. Shade: soft pink shimmer

#LTKBeauty #LTKVideo #LTKMidsize

ELF Cosmetics is real good at making high quality products available at a low price 👌🏼 I’ve slowly added more and more products to my make up bag over the last couple of years + to my surprise have some favorites that I’ll never run out of! Especially the contour/blush sticks and the glitter eyeshadow ✨

#LTKxelfCosmetics #LTKBeauty #LTKFindsUnder50

Before we got it, I thought the Doona would be a “nice to have”, but now that we’ve had it for three weeks I can say with confidence it’s a NEED. This stroller folds into a car seat with a single step… AND it’s ridiculously light.

We needed a new bucket car seat anyway + the Doona was the same price so we said, “why not”

It’s made getting out of the house with a newborn soooo much easier!! Collapsing is a breeze and it’s nice to not have to click a car seat into a stroller/take apart a stroller for quick outings.

10/10 recommend and I can’t wait to take it on airplanes (it’s approved to sit on the seat!!)

We have all of the accessories linked + they’ve made the whole system that much better 👌🏼

#LTKFamily #LTKBaby #LTKBump

Summer is almost here! Which means, you need to stock your bookshelves for all the reading by the pool you’re going to do 😉 some books at Target are discounted right now! Here are some my all time FAVORITE reads. Note: they’re all romantasy 💖 meaning romance plus all things fantasy. If you were a Twilight girly back in the day, I think you’re going to love these picks for your adult self!

If diving into the Sarah J Maas series, I highly recommend starting with A Court of Thorns and Roses, then diving into Throne of Glass, and then Crescent City. Trust me!
