Ladies, I am sooo excited for this post, #ThisIs30. But seriously, over the past year I have begun a love affair with Dr. Bronner’s castile soap, white vinegar (sister post to this one coming soon) and essential oils (also coming soon). I have become obsessed with DIY-ing my own products for my family and our […]

Everyday Household Items That Your Toddler Will Love More Than Toys
By mariapelletier on March 25, 2019Mommas, It’s been six weeks of being back East in snow and freezing cold conditions which means we’ve had several days of having to stay indoors. This is a foreign and unpopular concept for Evelyn. As the terror of occupying a toddler for several hours indoors each day mounted, I’ve spent several hours scouring pinterest […]
Hi Mommas, Today I’m sharing all the cute items I have planned for Evelyn’s Easter Basket! I’m trying to keep it simple this year and on a budget, while still splurging on a few items I’ve been wanting for a while! I’m so excited! Mini Wood Rainbow Stacker – Grimm’s Toys – I’m planning to […]
Favorite Affordable Play Friendly Clothing Brands for Toddlers
By mariapelletier on March 4, 2019Hi Mommas, I don’t know about you but I am SO READY for spring. Evelyn and I have cabin fever and are desperate to get outside to play and explore. Now that she’s fully mobil, and with a newfound love of splashing in puddles, spending money on boutique priced baby clothes no longer makes sense. […]
Must Have Products for Babies 0-6 Months That No One Tells You About
By mariapelletier on February 22, 2018Hi Mommas & MTB, I can’t believe how quickly Evelyn is growing! These past few weekends i’ve been cleaning out her closet, packing up her 0-3 & 0-6mo clothing to make room for her new 6-12mo pieces, packing up and giving away or donating what used to be her essential baby items that she’d now […]
Hi Mommas & Mommas-To-Be, Thank you to everyone for the kind words and support as I transitioned back to work. I surprisingly haven’t cried at the office. I’ve been able to FaceTime Evelyn a few times during the day and since she isn’t sleep trained yet I still had several hours to cuddle her once […]
Hi Gals! Today I wanted to share some of my favorite gifts Tim & I got as new parents – or wish we had gotten! It’s always hard to know what to get new parents – would they like this? Do they already have this item? So I put together a quick list of some […]
Hi Mommas and Mommas-to-be! Today I wanted to share my tips & tricks for traveling with a baby. Evelyn is almost 3 months and so far we’ve already done three trips with her! Two traveling by car, once to Big Bear and once to Solvang (which are both about a 2.5 hour drive each way). […]
I’m finally starting to settle into life with a newborn. The fog has lifted a little bit, i’ve started figuring out her fussy noises – what’s gas, what means she’s hungry, what means she’s about to have a huge blowout in her diaper. We’ve gotten into a night time eating routine and cluster feeding between […]
It’s countdown time with 3 weeks to go so i’ve been feverishly working on getting my hospital bag together. I’ve watched a ton of YouTube videos over the past few weeks on what other moms have packed, gotten advice in our birthing class and also the hospital tour; and from that have come up with […]
