From time to time I like to fill you in on good finds and things that I just like in general, and here’s a few more things to add to the list. :)
1. L’Oreal Colour Riche Lip Balm
I saw a commercial for this lip balm the other day and had to try it. I bought that pink color and the nude and love them both. It adds just a sheer tint on my lips and makes them really soft. Love.
2. Yes to Cucumbers Hypoallergenic Facial Towelettes
These make my face feel SO good and they clean it well too. And the smell is yummy!
3. Aden + Anais Swaddle Blankets
These are perfect for the new baby and are 100% cotton muslin and are so light, soft and comfy. They swaddle GREAT too and I’m not a good swaddler…but I’m getting better. :)
4. Mudpuppy Wooden Magnetic Alphabet Magnets (playful patterns)
I’ve been wanting to get Emma some of those alphabet magnets for the fridge for a while now, but wanted something a little more “stylish” than the regular plastic primary colored ones. And then a quick Google search for “pretty alphabet magnets” led me to these on Amazon and I snagged them up. They are super adorable in person too, and they also come in numbers etc.
5. KidKraft Magestic Dollhouse
I mentioned it was Emma’s 3rd birthday the other day and this was her gift! We ordered it on Amazon and it’s almost got a 5 star review. I did a lot of research on dollhouses before purchasing and went with this one for several reasons. It’s HUGE, made of wood, will last forever, and there’s plenty of room for both girls to play now when Ellie is older. And the furniture is all wood too and super cute. Just a warning though if you do buy this, it will take several hours to put together. My sweet husband stayed up till 4:30am the other night putting it together so Emma would have it the morning on her birthday. That’s love. :)
That’s what I’m loving. Now what are you loving lately? Fill me in on things I’m missing out on!
xxoo,

Thanks for the tip on the lip balm! I don’t like a lot of color on my lips, but they do need a little something. The swaddling blankets are the best!!! I got them as a shower gift and didn’t think much of them, but they are the best swaddling blankets ever (I never could swaddle my boys). My cousin who gave them to me let me know that even though her girls are almost 2, she still uses them. Her twins had serious runny noses and their nanny used the blanket to wipe their noses and there was no irritation. Something to remember later on!
haha good to know!

That lip balm is my favorite. It was out before the baby lips, but baby lips got so much hoopla I was curious enough to buy one. Turns out I prefer the L’Oreal!
Wow, LOVE that doll house — so fun!! I am loving the Sonia Kashuk beauty line at Target! Everything is awesome! :-)
My step niece has the magnetic dollhouse and she loves it- my sister bought it for her birthday. Would recommend it for little princesses!
