Avery turned one month old yesterday and she’s doing great! Breastfeeding is going well (I’m so glad she’s a better eater than Grace was) and she’s really porking up quite nicely :)
There are a few things I’ve been especially loving lately, so I thought I’d take a second to share them with you!
I don’t think I have to say much about why I’m loving these since it’s pretty obvious that no one wants me to inadvertently shoot them in the eye with breast milk when I get {ahem} full. Nuff said.
eos Lip Balm (Strawberry Sorbet)
I’m a lip balm ADDICT. Despite the fact that I drink lots of water everyday and have generally oily skin, I cannot seem to keep my lips from being dry so I make sure I have lip balm on hand at all times. This stuff comes in a fun little “egg” shape, smells great and has wholesome ingredients (no petroleum here!). I recently picked this up at Target and it’s a keeper :)
This was one of my Christmas gifts from Andy this year and I LOVE IT SO MUCH! I’m a big fan of Tervis because they’re BPA-free, double layered to prevent “sweating” and they are just plain cute. We are huge fans of the state of South Carolina (which happens to be our annual vacation spot) so when I saw this water bottle in a gift shop last year I should have snatched it up, but I didn’t. When I opened it on Christmas morning I squealed. Literally. This thing has been my regular companion ever since. One of my favorite features is the “loop” at the top. I didn’t give it any thought originally, but when my hands are full with the baby and any number of other things, I can loop this bottle around my pinky finger to take it to my next location without having to set down whatever is in my hands. That my friends is a game changer.
This is a snap-on breastfeeding pillow that makes the whole process so much more comfortable. Sometimes I’m too lazy to grab it before feeding Avery, but then I find myself constantly adjusting to keep us both comfortable and in a good position. This thing makes all of that unnecessary. I just snap it around my waist, get her into position and we are both comfy for the duration of the feeding. Thanks to my sister for getting this for me when I had Grace :)
Monogrammed Tuff Stuff iPhone Case
Also a Christmas gift from Andy, this iPhone case is one of my very favorite things! As I’ve mentioned probably a gazillion times before, I love my iPhone and I’m also a sucker for anything monogrammed. This case is durable and super cute and makes me smile every time I look at my phone :) It’s not cheap, but as a person who drops my phone multiple times EACH DAY, I can say that this case is durable and keeps my phone safe.
So that’s what I’m into lately. What about you?? Any products you’re loving lately?

I was just thinking today how much i love my new ipad.. Seriously, I can do anything I can think of without having something bulky on my lap and cords wrapped all around my body.. and I LOVE the photos it takes.. It makes me feel like an awesome photographer then I snap out of it and just remember it is the ipad :) LOVE LOVE LOVE>. I am sure down the road I am going to have to get an i phone but for now I will be satisfied with what I have :)
YES! iPads and iPhones rock! I’m glad you love yours and I’m sure you have a new appreciation for it now that you’re stuck on the couch most of the time :)
Eek! I love my Tervis cups too! I have some of the big ones…great for when you’re nursing and dying of thirst ;)
My current obsession is chocolate from Aldi. It’s the Choceur brand from Switzerland…It’s less than $2 for a giant bar of dark chocolate. I eat a piece (or two or three) each day and it makes me so happy!
I’m SO going to try this! I have had a major sweet tooth these days and justify it by how many calories I’m burning with nursing :)
