Gym Time

Saturday mornings are dedicated to My Gym. Its similar to a Little Gym class and is the only type of class like this in my area. Baby Z loves it.

My Favorite Kind of Sparkle...

I was poking around on Pinterest this afternoon while sitting tiredly at my work desk and found this picture. You know how sometimes a certain photo will just resonate with you? Thats this photo for me. I love the sparkle that the ocean gives off when you look at it in the right sunlight. Its my favorite kind of sparkle.

Come poke around with me on Pinterest..

Happy 4th of July!

We spent our 4th doing some shopping, some relaxing and some strawberry shortcake cooking!

Hope you all had a terrific day!

Pinteresting Picks: 4th of July Edition

My Fourth of July Pinteresting Picks most certainly has to include this cute and classic patriotic inspired outfit from the one and only Atlantic-Pacific. Im absolutely loving the polka-dots and the DIY clutch. Wish I was this put together!

Yes please. I'll take a heaping serving of salty sweetness that is almost prettier than fourth of July fireworks. This visual delight comes from Cupcakes and Cashmere. 

And I thought I was Martha Stewart by simply knowing how to create chocolate dipped strawberries. Occasionally Crafty

Etsy Pick Of The Day: Ruffle Birdy Pants

These super adorable and ultra girly ruffle bottomed pants are from Chasing Mermaids. I recently discovered this Etsy shop and fell in love with its whimisical little girls clothing items. The shop currently has up some 4th of July petal neck dresses that I have my eye on as well. This is my Etsy Pick of the Day and of course I could not help but choose it from something under kids items.

Whats In Our Pantry: Baby Snacks

We try to only give Baby Z fresh fruits and veggies for snacks but of course this isn't always feasible. Its also not always practical. We have found some yummy snack items that she loves and that are not too bad for her little self either. She absolutely loves these Plum Organics fruit and veggie pouches. She loves their sweet flavors and I love the fact that I am getting some more fruits and veggies in her palate. I mean when else is she going to eat pumpkin or sweet potato mixed with corn? I know they are sometimes aimed at younger babies but honestly they are great for 1 year olds like Baby Z when we are on the go or she needs something pronto.

These Plum Organics for tots Fiddlesticks are also a super easy and nutritious snack to grab for Baby Z.  They are a semi-soft fruit and grain stick that fits easily into tiny hands and satisfy their snack cravings. We have tried out the banana flavor but I know they come in multiple other flavors as well.

Baby Mum-Mums are pretty plain but Baby Z has liked them for as long as I can remember. They are like a plain rice rusk and are excellent for babies with or without teeth. Baby Z has only liked them in the vegetable flavor.

Thats whats in our pantry as far as baby snacks go with a 1 year old. As it changes and as I find other products that we like I will update you all!
