We have hit the single digit countdown and it’s about all we can do to get ourselves geared up for dinner out. It feels reminiscent of the first trimester tiredness, except we know how limited our time is just the two of us–so we have really tried to get out and enjoy this weather!

FINALLY found some time and energy to get my hair done and let me tell you, it was a total game-changer.

The boots I mentioned here arrived and I really haven’t worn anything since. They are absolutely the best.

So much to do–find a pediatrician, daycare provider, put together the baby room, pay bills, prepare meals, thank you notes, BUT Hocus Pocus was beaconing. FYI–all of these things are still not done.

The babe and I survived our 30 week check up and I was actually down a pound so I decided we need a smoothie and an asiago cheese bagel!

Speaking of smoothies, I am obsessed with them right now. Particularly the green passion power smoothie from Panera. Delicious.

I actually have today off work and I have BIG plans to get things done! What are some things you recommend in the last few weeks?
Hope you all have an amazing weekend!

Well happy Wednesday, friends!! Phew–things are getting real around the Johnson household. We are finding that every minute is consumed with baby to-dos. Then about halfway through accomplishing a baby related task, I usually cry because I realize we only have NINE more weeks of just Matt and I after TEN years of just us. This baby is such a blessing and we are finding ourselves more and more excited for their arrival each day, but we also know how much is going to change–and that is just a tad scary! It also didn’t help that when we mentioned to our doctor’s office that we were traveling this weekend, they suggested we go ahead and pack our carseat, hospital bags, and copy of medical records just in case. Insert wide-eyed emoji here.

Ok, so let’s get to the nitty gritty. Baby stuff is on the brain so prepare yourself for overload the next 2 months. Sorry in advance.

Teething necklace. Functional and cute. Yep!
Halloween Cards. The best holiday is upon us!! Wouldn’t miss a chance to send a little spooky mail!
Sugar Paper Signature Pen.
These gold earrings are to die for and they are only $12. Score.
Floral Power Trip Cord. I feel like I am always on the go these days, a backup charger and this car charger are essentials.
Essie ‘After School Boy Blazer’.
Kai Body Lotion.
So, June and January just launched their fall line and it includes dozens of new pieces that are gender neutral like this bib. Swoon.
This basket is just begging to be filled with cute baby toys.
Ok, so this reptile pillow is a little boyish. We can’t help it. We are 99% sure that’s what we are having so it couldn’t hurt just to get this and then worst case scenario, girls like dinosaurs too?

What all are you guys loving this week? Any baby goods I am missing???

Hope you have a great rest of the week–2 more days!

A few weekends ago, I traveled up to Indiana for a bridal shower for my sweet cousin Amber and got to see this pretty lady, my dad, grandma, and all of my aunts, uncles, and cousins. It was so fun getting to be with them and for them to get to feel the baby move! It’s been hard being away from family and not being able to share all of the little milestones!

Got this sweet tee from Jean and June and started getting all kinds of teary. Can’t believe we get to meet this little nugget in less than 3 months!

FALL!!!!

We settled on this stroller and car seat set. We got it all set up and things got REAL.

The babe and I at 28 weeks! We have officially hit the 3rd trimester!

AND finally….October is here, my friends!! Ah, sweet, sweet October.
Plus, my baby brother turns 24 today…what?! Hope you have a happy day Nicky poo!
So that’s it for me, what have you all been up to?

Good morning!! I am going to make this short and sweet. This mama is so ready for the weekend. It has been a busy week! This weekend is looking so, so good. Here’s what I am loving this week!

This pumpkin is calling my name!

2. Nars Audacious Lipstick.

3. Opal Studs.

4. The very best things about fall.

5. Pretzel Rattle.

6. Reversible Tote. The inside of this bag is so good. Pretty reasonable price for say, a baby bag?

7. Mommy Bodysuit. The kid can’t have too many of these, simply because we will all know he or she will most definitely prefer daddy.

8. At a mere $7, I feel like these adorable little booties are a must.

So, that’s it for me! What have you been loving this week? Hope you all have some snazzy plans for the weekend!

Good morning! Today I wanted to share with you a line of products I am super excited about. With baby peanut’s arrival in just a short three months, I am firing on all cylinders to pick the perfect products for them to use. I have always been a product junkie, but I have never truly thought about the effect of the product on my overall health. Now that I am responsible for making the decisions that affect the health of our little one, I have become pickier than ever. So, when I stumbled upon an opportunity to host a Seventh Generation Healthy Baby Home party through their Generation Good Community, I immediately signed up. Below are some snaps from the party I hosted for a few of my mommy friends!

Thanks to Seventh Generation, I was able to share some goodies with friends and stock up the house with quality products for a happy, healthy home!

And, I just discovered that you can save 30% instead of the normal 5% on Made to Matter subscriptions at Target (links above!). Plus, I think you might be able to save an additional 10% if you opt for in-store pick up! Score!

What are your must have healthy baby products? This mama is all ears!!
Have a great day!

Erin
