As a prior substitute teacher I always thrive and love to swap out activities, books, toys, etc. for my kiddos seasonally. These are some of the current fall / Thanksgiving pieces around our home that we love and use!

After my first pregnancy I had to go dairy and soy free to feed my baby boy. Now, I have to again for my baby girl. Both kiddos seem to have had an intolerance in the beginning of life that the one has outgrown, but I pray my 2nd does too! But these are my favorite go-to snacks. Granted, not all are as healthy as I’d love for them to be, but I’m doing what I can how and where I can. Besides whole foods - this is the best I’ve got.

No one likes the sicknesses that commonly arise in the colder season. We’re cooped up inside, so less natural vitamin D (eh hem looking at you sunlight). We tend to eat more poorly (holiday sweets and treats). All of which can negatively impact our immune system. BUT… here are some of my favorite ways to prevent illness or boost my and my family’s immune system when I’m sick to recover quicker! What works for us may not for you, but these are what we use and like.

Our home isn’t 100% free of all toxins, but little by little we’ve tried to decrease our toxic exposures.

Cooking and baking is something I’ve always enjoyed doing, but being a mama of two littles makes the task of prep and clean up a bit more daunting. However, when you find a recipe and it is delicious the first time you make it - you keep it and share it with others!

Here are some of my absolute favorite products that are nontoxic based and super helpful as a mom!

I have always been an avid fan of live plants. I have upwards of 100 plants in my home and it brings a little sense of “making my oasis” within my home. Along the way I’ve found these products to be my favorites.
