What children's spring and summer trends are you exited about?

Product Love: aden + anais crib sheets

I'm a huge aden + anais fan and when I heard that they recently launched a crib sheet line, I was absolutely static! I particularly love their muslin swaddlers and their sleeping bags, Jack practically lived in them for the first couple of months after he was born.

Available in single packs, each cotton muslin fitted crib sheet features A+A signature styles and their trademark open weave and soft texture. These fitted sheet are ideal for keeping babies warm in winter and cool in the summer. In addition to their new classic line, A+A also launched an eco friendly certified organic collection made from socially responsibly grown cotton.

What I'm wearing today...

Yesterday we had the most amazing weather - 72º and sunny. I decided to take Jack Attack to the park and this is way he wore...

Bob Marley t-shirt // Skinny Jeans // Keep Shoes

Jack wore his first (of many, trust me!) Bob Marley tee. I was afraid a 2T was going to be too big on him but it fit him perfectly.

No more bottles...

Since we transitioned from bottles to sippy cups the only way that Jack will drink his milk is if he's sitting on his Fisher Price Music Parade Ride On.

Our favorite sippy cup is hands down is the Munchkin Mighty Grip Straw Cup. Unlike other regular spout cups, the soft silicone straw made the transition effortless. It's simple contoured design is easy to hold and the straw valve makes it practically mess and spill proof. Since they are available in a variety of colors, we have designated specific ones for milk and water only.

Whatever position the straw is in, you will never see a leak or have to wipe up a mess.

Bradaddy - Being Jack's Dad

Today I'm introducing a new feature on the blog and I'm super excited about it - Bradaddy: What they never told me about being a dad.  Once a month, Brad will be sharing an inside look at what's it's like to be a first time father. He will be talking about all those things that no one ever told you... From finding out he was going to be a dad and holding Jack for the first time to smelly diapers and projective vomiting, there is nothing he won't walk about!

I hope you enjoy Brad's first post below...

Being Jack's Dad: I don't think anyone is ever truly ready to be a father, at least not until you hold your child for the first time.  The second you feel that jump from being a child yourself, to being an actual father will forever change you.  I was told by many people "you will never know love like the love for your child". Well, that is very true, but what no one really explained to me is how that love actually grows larger every single day. Jacks continues to impress me all the time.  I went from watching the simple miracle of him blinking his eyes as a slimy newborn to quickly figuring out how to open doors in just 13 months! Explain that?!  I have a fantastic new partner in life.  He is my perfect boy.

Jack's Playroom: IV Part

Jack is enjoying his new table + chairs from IKEA in his playroom. I can't believe how much of a big boy my little baby looks like in this picture - time flies! 

He's playroom is coming along nicely.  Check this post on Layers of Meaning for another great score that will go in his playroom.

This week, we are mounting the new TV on the wall, adding some shelves and  hopefully ordering + making some art for the walls.
