I’m a seasoned mom of 2 (one of which had colic.. iykyk) and these are products that i found very useful! I was on a budget (and still am) but I’ve also found some great products that I’ve heard good things about, that are a little out of my price range, but soooo worth it if you can splurge!
As a mom who's been through the baby product maze, I’ve curated my top picks that made life easier and more enjoyable.

Instead of getting confused about what items you need for your newborn, you should first check out my recommendations here! This can help minimize unnecessary expenses.
I love toys that stimulate brain development. Nothing is better to me than a toy that is STEM approved or serves a dual purpose for our kiddos. I also adore toys that keep their attention with minimal stimulation in the ways of lights and music… it’s what keeps my sanity in tact.

So much of the baby clothes on the market these days just is not the best quality. You may even find they don’t last more than a few washes.
These items inevitably wind up in landfills.
I’ve created this category to help you source out small businesses who make incredibly beautiful pieces that will withstand the test of time. They may cost a little more but you know your money is well spent on the quality!
Imagine being able to save a wardrobe’s worth of beautiful pieces of clothing to pass down to the next generation. The thought of my daughter’s daughter wearing the baby clothes she has worn truly is worth it all.
LOVE. EVERY. ITEM. ON. THIS. LIST. I can’t stress enough how amazing each of these items are. We have used every single one time and time again with both of our kiddos.

I am rarely lost for words, but in this description I am. I think it’s because I really view my motherhood experience with a new set of eyes each week (the benefits of therapy I guess). I was a young mom the first time around - pregnant at 21 and gave birth at 22 - we had our second just three weeks after our first turned 3 (I 25 if you’re keeping track). Then at 27 I was surprised to learn I was pregnant for the last time. We had been on the fence about another baby and my primary thought about having more children was that we needed to be done before I was 30. Any who, short story long these are my recs as a mom who feels like they’ve been a totally different parent with each new baby.

A top gift list for 5th-grade boys, based on my 10-year-old son's favorites. These are all items he and his friends and classmates love right now. Think 10-year-olds through 13-year-olds. Toys are a bit less interesting at this age, but some of them still spark interest! Mr. Beast items have been a huge hit for my 5th grade boy and his friends. Anything that their favorite streamers are using or promoting? Yep, high up on their wishlists!
