We just got back from our first family trip to the beach and I wanted put together a quick list of what we packed. I know many of you had questions on packing for littles, so hopefully this is helps. Our families have spent many summers traveling to 30A, but this is the first time Austin and I have been with the boys. It was so sweet to see them at the beach and it was a great week full of family memories. But, we are definitely exhausted. ...
We took the boys to Disneyland over the holidays, which included a flight from Dallas to Orange County. Since I got a lot of travel-related questions, mainly pertaining to doing it with toddlers, I wanted to write everything out. Honestly, I'm always interested in how other parents do it with little kids because it stresses me out - so I hope you find something useful here! ...

Charlie is "o-fishally" one and we had the best time celebrating this boy. We joked that it was basically a party for George, at least he thought so anyway, but it was really sweet to see our friends and family as we wished Charlie a happy birthday. You always hear the first year flies by, and it really does. ...
I put in a recent winter order for the boys and found some really cute stuff. I know a lot of y'all have boys of your own or littles in your family, so I figured I'd share what I got. Lots of cozy neutrals...but what's new? ...

When I found out I was having another boy, I knew right away I wanted to dress them in coordinating outfits while they were little. Especially during the holidays! Everyone always talks about how girls are so much fun to dress, and while that's probably true (I mean, they really do have so many more options) I absolutely love dressing my boys. Carter's has plenty of festive options if you're looking for matching outfits for the family or siblings. I found this Green Vest for George and this 2-piece Sweater + Corduroy Pant Set for Charlie and it was perfect for some holiday photos. ...
I've been buying a few new things for myself for fall so of course I also had to do some shopping for George and Charlie. Honestly, these days I think I have more fun shopping for them than I do for myself! Everything is just so cute — like this babe sweatshirt. Does it get any cuter? I know there are other boy moms doing some fall shopping so thought I'd share the latest haul. ...
One of the most requested posts as of late has been my baby essentials or to link certain things I'm sharing for Charlie. I know it's taken me some time to get around to it, but I wanted to make sure I could recommend and use some of these items on Charlie before publishing this. Between George and Charlie, there have been certain things that I didn't end up loving, but what you see below are things I can confidently recommend as my baby essentials. I hope it's helpful, and let me know if I left anything out. I'll share what we keep in the rolling cart soon, as I know that's another popular topic in my DMs. ...
Since we're having another boy, I'm trying not to go crazy on the baby clothes this time around. I also know that for the most part, babies live in basics, at least George did. At the same time, I can't resist a good baby haul here and there - and the new baby should at least have a few things that are just his...right? For any expecting mamas or friends who are looking for baby clothes for a friend, I'm sharing my recent Baby Haul today. A lot of this stuff is actually gender-neutral so most should work for boys or girls.
Let me know if y'all are into the baby hauls or if baby stuff is totally boring. You won't offend me!

One of my favorite things about George now attending school is feeling like he actually needs "outfits" to leave the house in. We obviously left the house before that, but there's something about school that makes me want to shop for him even more than before. I need to do a better job at sharing his items since I know there are a lot of mamas out there, so I'm starting with this post. Consider this a simple Faul Haul for the boys. So much cute stuff for the season! ...
