Here’s what’s in my “Oh, I’ve Got That” Bag If you’ve ever sat through a kids’ sporting event, you’ve likely heard a frantic, “Does anyone have…?” from a player or parent. Whether it’s ibuprofen, a bandage, a hair tie, or a safety pin, there’s always one mom who chimes in: “Oh, I’ve got that!” That mom is me. And if I don’t have it this time? You can bet it’ll be in the bag next time.
As a mother of 2.5, these are the things I’ve found essential.

As a mom of 5 kids, I have had my fair share of sick kids and sleepless nights. I have learned to much over the years and wanted to share my favorite products for sick kids/babies. It's my hope that this list will help somebody else find good, quality products for when their kids are sick. I'm not a medical professional, so please consult your pediatrician before giving any medication or treatment.
As a new mom I have some things I could absolutely not live without. These are my hands down non-negotiable items
I had so many items on my registry that I didn’t use or had to find an alternative product once our baby actually arrived because they did not work as expected or at all for our baby. After working with an IBCLC I learned so much about bottles, nipples, and pacifiers. I am also a little crunchy so glass bottles were a must for me as were herbal remedies to combat all the toxicity in the world.
I hope you love these things as much as we do!
Flying with a little one can be overwhelming for sure but here are things that I used and tested on multiple flights that helped me and mine along our travels!
Our Tonie wall is always growing. I have been very lucky and found lots of clearance deals on Tonies so we have tried tons of them out. This is a list of some of our favorites we have on repeat. 🎶📚
Cloth diapering favorites we actually use and love 🤍 I prioritize natural fibers like organic cotton, but I also use microfiber inserts when they make sense for our routine. And on days when cloth just isn’t doable, we reach for eco-conscious disposables like Hiro — designed to break down with fungi instead of sitting in landfills for decades.I’ve used cloth diapers daily and tested what actually works (and what doesn’t). If you’re overwhelmed, this is the exact setup I use that made cloth diapering simple and doable. No fluff — just real products that held up through daily use, leaks, and laundry routines.
I’m a mom of 5 so I’m found a lot of things that either work or don’t work along the way I’ll share all the things that work for us and why I love them!
I have breast-fed all three of my babies, and I have only gotten more successful each time, and a lot of of that has come from just knowing what products are essential and what products work!

There are so many products on the market for new mums, it can be hard to know what you actually need. I've curated this list of my newborn essentials - those things that I used endlessly in the first few months and would buy again. All of the items make life as a new mum so much easier and would recommend for anyone going into parenting for the first time!
As a first-time mum, I quickly learned how important the right chair is when it comes to nursing. You spend so many hours feeding and soothing your baby, so finding a chair that’s comfortable and supportive is key. For me, armrests are a must—they give your arms a break during those long feeds. I also love the ability to rock or glide, which helps settle the baby (and me!) when we’re both trying to relax. While reclining is ideal for those late-night sessions, not all chairs have that feature, but a good footstool can do wonders in those cases. Here are my top picks for nursing chairs that tick all the boxes, ensuring both you and your little one are comfortable.
These are some healthy snacks that I buy for my kids - they look like “treats” but are made with clean ingredients and are easy to find on Amazon or in Whole Foods! It’s not always simple to find snacks for picky kids, but the flavors these brands use are appealing to kids and adults alike

They encourage creativity, problem-solving, and hands-on fun, perfect for curious little minds. Whether indoors or outdoors, these are the best kids toys that bring endless joy to our home!

I officially started my homeschooling journey this past year with my oldest. I am SO passionate about being a homeschooling mama that I want to share some of the things that work really well for us.
