5 Favorite Instagram Shops

If you’ve never used Instagram to purchase things, you are missing out! Or maybe not, seeing as how I spend way too much buying things … but how could I resist the cuteness??

These are my top five favorite shops – I’ve purchased from all of these (except one – which will be my next purchase!) and I’ve had great experiences with all of them!

One} Twinkle Twinkle lil Jar – I bought a mug around Christmas that says “Wifey & Mama” and I LOVE it. Then again, I love anything that is sparkly :) She takes custom orders too! These are a great gift idea for a new mom, or anyone really!

Instagram handle is @twinkletwinkleliljar I love the photos she posts!

 

Two} Shelby Chic Boutique: I LOVE these sparkly headbands! Recently she has started branching out and selling leg warmers and bloomers, all with her signature “sparkle” bow. I purchased a matching mama+mini set when Grace was first born :)

Three} Little Miss Athena – this is BY FAR, my favorite shop to purchase Gracie’s headbands from! Chances are, any bow on my child’s head came from this shop. Her prices are reasonable, shipping is fast and the quality is superb.

Four} Jennifer Ann Style – the original personalized name blankets! I purchased two of these for Gracie to come home from the hospital with – I love how soft and pretty they are. These also make a great gift, but plan ahead! Shipping takes one month exactly.

Five} Loved by Hannah and Eli – this is the shop that I have not yet purchased from, but my gosh, I am dying for a “Mama Bear” shirt!! They also have different variations of baby “bear” shirts; Auntie Bear, Papa Bear, ect. These styles sell out fast, but she is constantly restocking.

{Pinspired} Yogurt Melts

One of Gracie’s favorite snacks is yogurt snacks – but at $3-4/bag, it gets pricey. And, there are a ton of ingredients – half of which I have no idea what they are.

Gerber Yogurt Melts

While home with her on Monday I decided to try making some myself, and they were surprisingly very easy! I followed these easy steps.

DIY Yogurt Melts!  Once they were on the tray, I popped them in the freezer for a couple hours, and then transferred them to a ziploc baggie! I keep them in the freezer so they don’t melt, and Gracie LOVES these. I tried a couple, and I have to say – they are pretty yummy!

I can’t wait to try them with fruit and veggies mixed in, and I think these would be perfect on a hot summer day :)

Linking up with Annie and Natalie for Thoughts for Thursday!

Tuesday Talk

Can I just start out by saying how much I love having Monday’s off!!! I’m officially dubbing them #mamagracieday

We started our day with an ear check at her pediatrician (clean bill of health and perfect ears – yes!) and then a visit to her chiropractor for her weekly adjustment. I truly credit her adjustments with what has cured her ear infections.

I meal prepped for the week, made Gracie “yogurt melts” (thank you Pinterest!), cleaned and did laundry.

We picked up some Annie Sloane Chalk Paint in “Duck Egg Blue” for the new buffet I bought on Sunday! I love home DIY projects, and know this one will be a fun one :)

We then stopped by our neighbor’s house and spent a couple hours – us moms got to chat and the babes played. I love that our two babies will grow up together and go to school together.

Our weekend was filled with lots of family and play time. Play group with the class of 2032; lunch with the inlaws and Gracie’s Easter photos!

I am now completely exhausted and crossing my crossables that Gracie sleeps allllll night.

All Kinds of Things

Happy Tuesday friends!!
