Two of these things were actually on my registry and two I actually picked out.  (Thanks mom and Nana! 😉 )

1 – Cutie Pie Socks – These are soooo cute!  I had never even heard of this company before.  I tried googling the brand to see if I could find them for y’all.  There are some options on Amazon but that is really all I found!

I think these are the perfect gift idea for little baby boys!  Also they are very stretchy!  The doc has told me it looks like Milo, my son, is going to have a big foot.  So fingers crossed these fit.  😉

2 – Precious Moments Jesus Loves Me Musical Water Globe.  I believe this was purchased from Lifeway Christian Bookstore.  This was such a thoughtful gift!  Hopefully it helps soothe Milo to sleep.

5- Milk Barn Organics burp cloths – I love to try to keep things as natural as possible, and the hedgehogs just went with my woodland animal theme.

6- Monogrammed Onesie – A onesie with his name on it is absolutely adorable.  I imagine lots of Instagrams to come soon with this outfit!  One of my favorite places to shop for this type of gift is Etsy, the app.

7 – Get BIGGER sizes!!  A friend asked my mom if it was okay to buy 18-24 months outfits.  OF COURSE!  Milo is going to grow like a little weed and having some outfits in a few sizes up is a great idea to help the momma save money in the future!

8- Sports Team Logos – My family bleeds blue for the University of Kentucky.  Old Navy was having some of their sports team shirts on clearance.  Score!  😉

9- Onesies from Target – Woodland Animals – this was on my registry.  I just thought it was too cute not to share!  All of these onesie colors will be adorable when it’s fall!

So I hope these 9 favorites can help inspire you to think outside the box and put some thought into your gift.  I am so thankful for all my friends and family who took time to come, spend time, and share their love with me.

I hope to make another video or blog post from my next shower!  Follow me on Instagram or subscribe to my Youtube for updates!

Have a wonderful Friyay!

5 Essential for a Perfect Sunday Morning!

Perfect Sunday Morning

So I really think Sunday Mornings are my favorite time of the week. Usually it is when I am least busy and honestly can just be kind of lazy and enjoy it.

Even though I said it was time to be lazy, I actually don’t like sleeping in too late on Sundays. I feel like if I do, I’m wasting my lazy time on sleep and not being lazy. Weird right?!

So I like waking up around 8 am on Sundays. That way it gives me the whole morning to spend time on myself.

First I like to take a warm shower. I would prefer a bubble bath, but I have to work with what I got. I use to hate morning showers but now I love feeling clean first thing in the morning.

Second I love to take time and cover myself in lotion. My three favorites so far are the Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion (this really helps my skin in the winter), Olay Quench Body Lotion, and Bath and Body Works Winter Candy Apple Body Cream. I usually rotate between these three. Once I slather up, I put on my robe and let my skin enjoy the moisture!

 

Clarisonic Detoxifying Clay Mask

 

Third I enjoy putting on a mask whenever I am trying to pamper myself. This one here is a favorite and I have repurchased it twice now. Highly recommend! I love how clean it makes my face feel.

 

White Chocolate Mocha

 

Fourth – coffee! Do I really need to say anymore? 😉 My favorite so far has been this limited edition white chocolate mocha from Meijer. Seriously y’all, I could drink this whole thing in one sitting if I let myself.

Lastly, after I have my shower done, my skin all moisturized, face mask on, and coffee, I go curl up on the couch with my ipad. Sometimes I shop, sometimes I play around on pinterest, and sometimes I catch up on some youtube videos.

 

But this is my perfect Sunday morning. Now this isn’t always a weekly ritual ( I wish it was!). Today actually, I am busy all day long. But it is still important to try and make sometime whenever you can fit it in. Maybe for you it’s a Tuesday afternoon, or a Thursday night. But takes some time for yourself. BE LAZY! It’s okay to be lazy every now and then. 😉
