Items I’m considering buying or have bought for my kids’ baskets. Toddler girl + elementary boy. 🌷 I really try to keep the “junk” out. I think about if something will truly spark their imagination or create play time; if it is something I was going to buy anyway for the season; is it truly useful.

Our family is complete, but my youngest is barely potty trained. I feel like I’m still near enough to the baby stage I can remember what’s been essential and/or I’M still using! My oldest is almost 7 for reference.

We have all of these toys. These are the toys that my children come back to. Many started with my first child and are continuing to live well through play with my second. Check these out if you're tired of buying stuff they don't ever look at again after opening.

These are the items my son has asked for this 2025 Christmas. My 6 year old is into sports, video games, and Pokemon and Minecraft characters. If that rings true to your child, you may get some inspo here.

My daughter turns 3 on Black Friday! These are items she marked in the Amazon wish list book or items I thought would be useful for her. I'm always thinking long term play for the most part. She has a great imagination and loves princesses and pink. If your child matches that, you'll find what you're looking for.

So random - but gifts I’ve bought for parents, uncles, siblings, etc. Maybe there’s something that sparks an idea for these hard to buy for people. 🤗

These are the books I have read to my kids over and over. I’ll keep these forever.

These are games me and my kids love to play! You will not find mouse trap on here - I cannot stand that game or setting it up!!!!! Hot take?

These are makeup items which are actually in my caboodle (yes, caboodle like 1993), and I actually use them on the reg. I have light, mature skin. My skin is also normal to dry. My biggest problem area are my eye bags because I'm tired and was born in the 80's 😜 So I always want to deter from those.

These items are what I buy on repeat and must have in my home! They’re useful favorites that help me not have to think about what I ned

I'm 5' 11" and have trauma from ill fitting clothes in middle school. My upper half is fairly average with longer arms, and I have a 35.5" - 36" inseam for flares to hit the floor. These are items I'm interested in or have for my build. I'm for sure an inverted triangle, so busty girls unite!

These are shows I’ve attended, and they’re listed starting with favorite to least favorite. I have more I’ll be adding, and some of these I wish I could out all in the same high spot, but for right now this is the order. I use to go to shows alll year long. But now with kids it’s just hard to make it. We’ve had a couple shows like the Raconteurs and Tom Segura (TWICE) where we last minute couldn’t go. So this has hindered us from buying tix more often in this current stage. But my love for music never wavers, and I’m glad for a place to have this list and record some thoughts. 🎶🎼🎶🎼🎶 I added a comedy section as well because I also love comedy shows! Who doesn’t love to laugh! This is a running list I will continue to update as I remember shows or hopefully go to new ones! Feel free to comment if you’ve been to one of these shows or want to go.

My daughter is a Thanksgiving baby, and is turning 3. My husband's birthday is 2 days before hers. To beat the hectic season, we threw her a birthday 2 weeks early. All she asked for was an Elsa birthday. I needed to keep it easy and festive, so we chose cupcakes at the park. I also served juice, uncrustables, applesauce packets, and an array of cracker/chip options. All the kids had a good time. Here you can find the items I purchased to make sure this simple celebration still had sparkle!

My favorite picks in the midlands of South Carolina. I spend most of my time in Lexington, but there are too many places I love in Columbia that need to be added!
