The school year is starting back up in just a few short weeks — If there is one thing that last year taught me (that will make the mornings go so much smoother), it was having Jack’s lunches already planned out and ready to go. Jack only went twice a week last year and will now be going 4 days a week, so I really want to try to have his meals already prepped to save the time (and stress). Below are a bunch of different school lunch ideas —

FALL FASHION
My favorite season of the year is finally here. I love everything about fall; the cooler temps, pumpkin spice everything, the leaves changing colors + fall fashion. I have already started looking online for fall pieces + scoping out the sales and there are already so many cute styles available. Below I have rounded up a few pieces I own, have purchased, and/or have my eye on this season. Click on the photo to be directed to the retailer’s site.

TODDLER + BABY BOY FAVES
Babies are constantly growing and changing, and as soon as you buy any item in their current size, they immediately grow out of it in weeks. When buying anything for Jack, I always buy a few sizes up to make sure it’ll fit by the time it arrives, if not a couple more months. Some say baby boys are so hard to shop for or that they can’t find anything cute, but I disagree; I love all of the fun boy outfits + it’s so easy to dress them up with a little jacket, sneakers and a beanie, especially in the fall (which will be here before we know it).…

BOOKS I’M LOVING
One of my goals this year was to read more. I have always enjoyed reading, but would get easily distracted or lose focus and not get back into it for months. I started out strong this year and slightly fell off track, but I’ve learned to try and always have 1-2 back up books. I recommend making a list of a few books you’re interested in and purchase or rent them all at once; this personally helps in holding me accountable and gives me something to look forward to after finishing a current read. Below are books I have read and loved –

RECENT TODDLER PURCHASES
Jack has outgrown so many pieces from last year and a few of his everyday shoes, so I decided to order a few new summer pieces for him. The white vans below are probably my favorite shoes of his and the easiest ones to take off and on, so I re-ordered them in a bigger size, along with his sleep sack that he outgrew. I also ordered him a bigger car seat, a few swimsuits, more bibs + a few other things. All products are linked below – I also ordered him a new hat and romper (pictured below) from GOUMI KIDS – one of my favorite baby brands.…

AMAZON FAVORITES
If you shop on amazon, you know the reviews are everything. If it is a new purchase, I will spend hours reading through to see how people rated the product, is it true to size, how is the quality, etc. While I have had my fair share of returned products, there are others I absolutely loved and have continued to purchase over the years. Below are my amazon favorites, including home decor, active wear, accessories + more.

SPRING FASHION FAVORITES
While fall is my favorite season, I am so ready for these spring + summer months. Due to the pandemic and my pregnancy the year before, it’s been a little while since I have shopped for or styled any spring pieces. I decided to do a little refresh on my wardrobe and I loved so many of the pieces that came in. Flowy, oversized + anything linen is my go to during the warmer months, and while I usually stick to neutrals, I am slowly trying to incorporate more color into my wardrobe this year. Below are items I currently own and love, including my go denim, fun spring tops…
