This is a weird year. In some cases, I’m closer to my neighbors right now than members of my family or my closest friends! As we reflect on a year that was anything but ordinary, I’m sharing a few of my favorite things that have made it into my shopping cart lately—from bigger gifts to stocking stuffers, from baby to grandma!
Self-Care
A few fun items for the amazing women in your life—from the Bachelor-obsessed to the wine lover.
For the Littlest Ones
These are all items I used and loved with my youngest! In fact, that dome saved my life at the pool the first summer he was here, and I only ended up with the Sit-Me-Up seat because they gave it to me for free when I returned an old Rock and Play that was recalled! Win! The bath toys below are currently in our tub right now. My son is 19 months and we’ve been using them for at least the last 3-6 months!
For my Home Edit obsessed friends
Y’all. I am obsessed. My house is a total disaster, but I am taking one small area at a time and finding peace in it. I started with my closet, then tackled the garage, and now I’m onto the kitchen pantry and fridge. It’s a lot. But so pretty! And all of these items are ones I now have in my house.
Finally, some stocking stuffers and other fun items
I hope you found some good ideas for yourself and others, and you kick off this month of holiday JOY with exactly that. It’s a time to reflect on all that we have and all we’ve been given—and all we can give. Be a light. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, and allllll the time off you can get!
As a reminder, I do receive a few pennies when you click on the Amazon links above. I’ve never actually earned enough for them to cut me a check, but maybe one day 😉
