friday favorites | august 2019

August 23, 2019

Happy Friday! I cannot believe it’s almost fall – thank goodness! The best time of the year fo sho! As always, I’m sharing some things we have been loving this August….

ONE: We have been enjoying going to the library weekly lately! Harper and Mason LOVE being read a book before nap time and bedtime. We’ve quickly went through our personal collection many many times. So, we go to the library and pick out new books for the week. I love doing themed book shelves for holidays and such… so if you can’t afford to buy all the fun holiday books for that (why are children’s books so expensive!?), you could decorate with library books!

Also, the kids play for an hour or so and I sip my coffee and read a book peacefully!

TWO: We are currently remodeling McKenzie and Kasey’s downstairs bathroom. Of course I was scouring Pinterest for inspiration! Then I came across the cutest “peach” theme from Urban Outfitters. I thought it would be PERFECT for them because we’ve always called them Peaches since they were babies. However, the Urban Outfitters shower curtain was a little out of my price range. I found this one on Amazon for $20! It’s still really good quality and adorable! I can’t wait to get it hung up.

I couldn’t find a good dupe for the bath mat though.. so I will be splurging on that! It’s a must for a peach theme bathroom 😉

THREE: Shameless plug? I don’t know but I LOVE these new pouches that just hit my Etsy shop. I had a vision and my friend over at Braylee Danee’s brought it to life for me. These bags can hold quite a few peg dolls but make traveling with your child’s favorite toys easier! You can buy your own in my shop – HERE!

FOUR: When we went school shopping last week, McKenzie picked out this adorable pom headband! She wore it for school pictures and looked soooo cute. The girls are over the “bow stage” so I was excited when she wanted this!

FIVE: I’m always looking for new snacks to eat while on Weight Watchers. Most protein bars are SO high in points and a ton of calories. I discovered Built Bars (not sponsored!) and took a chance by ordering some. Omgosh.. they are delicious! They are only 110 calories, filling and only 3 Weight Watchers points. Cody loves them too! I just ordered a new box too. Our favorite flavor is Strawberry but you can order a variety pack if you aren’t sure what flavor you’ll like.

SIX: I know I already shared a blog post about this a few weeks ago but you guys.. this stuff is the bomb. That post was sponsored but what I’m writing now is 100% not sponsored. I have really bad insomnia and usually take ZQuil to help me fall asleep – not the healthiest I know. Ever since I started using the adult melatonin gummies I’ve ditched the ZQuil. These work so good! Last night I was asleep by 11pm (I took them at 10:30) and that is RARE. I’ve heard they can be found at Target!

That’s it! Not a huge list today but still some goodies! See you in the BER months!!!

Which honestly seems weird since we were all stuck at home? I’m sure you guys know what books stole the show for me though... 😏🖤♾ #hessa #bookhaul
