Fall Amazon Purchases / Glitter & Gingham

Happy Monday y’all! I hope everyone had an amazing weekend. We spent ours with family & it was just lovely. I was so excited to share Baby B’s name with y’all last night on Instagram, so it’s only fitting to share here too! This name train was such a fun Amazon find & the perfect way to share Baby B’s name! Baby Vaughn, we can’t wait to meet you!!

Let’s get into the good stuff, shall we?!

Fall Amazon Purchases:

Velvet Ribbon: I love adding a velvet bow to Christmas presents, and by the time I wanted some last holiday season everywhere was sold out! So I jumped on this early & scooped up a few different colors to use this holiday season.
Living Proof Dry Shampoo: My new go to dry shampoo! I just snagged a back up bottle to have on hand when I run out. This does a really good job refreshing my hair & actually eliminating oil.
Fuzzy Non Slip Socks: These are going in my hospital bag! They’re super cozy & I love the grippers on the bottom.
Wooden Name Train: Okay y’all, this is the CUTEST thing! Got one for baby Vaughn, and I love how it turned out. It’s priced depending on the letters in a name, & the colors are somewhat customizable. We went with the pastel colorway, and it arrived surprisingly quick! Would make a darling gift for any babies or toddlers you’re shopping for this season.
Leather Valet Train: This $10 scalloped tray is so darn cute! The quality is great, and for $10 I couldn’t resist. Would make a great stocking stuffer or affordable gift for the holidays.
Night Sleep Support Wrist Brace: My pregnancy has brought on carpal tunnel, and it really flares up in the middle of the night! This wrist brace has been a game changer & is fairly comfortable to sleep in.
High Waisted Undies: Prepping for postpartum, and these are about as glamorous as it gets.
Shower Shoes: Shower shoes were a hospital bag recommendation, so a cheap pair I could toss were a must.
Nursing Bras: Another hospital bag, postpartum buy. This pack of 5 is actually super comfy! So much so I’ve been wearing them already.
Button Up Sleep Shirt: Sleep shirts have been my favorite thing to sleep in during my pregnancy, but I don’t have any nursing friendly options so I snagged this one to pack in my hospital bag.
Long Sleeve Sleep Shirt: Another button front sleep shirt option that I’m sure I’ll be living with soon enough.
Winnie the Pooh Book: I had a deep love for Winnie the Pooh when I was little, so I couldn’t resist this sweet book to put in her nursery. I thought the yellow cover was so sweet.
Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides: Getting ample protein when I’ve been pregnant has been a struggle for time to time, so I’ve been adding a scoop or two to my coffee in the am. I’m not going to say it has zero taste, but I find if I add some cinnamon powder to my coffee it kind of masks the taste.
Veggie Chopper: This is a GAME CHANGER in the kitchen! My chopping skills aren’t great, and this is so helpful & saves so much time.
Exercise Ball: My Dr. recommended sitting on an exercise ball at home to help with some back pain. I honestly don’t sit on it very often, so I can’t speak to the benefits yet..
Crib Mattress Sheet: I was eyeing some beautiful crib sheets that I just couldn’t justify the price for. I was impressed with the color selections of these & scooped up a few to have on hand.
Silicone Baking Mats: Ours were getting a little worn out, so these were an affordable replacement.
Dreft Baby Detergent: Let the baby laundry begin! We’re been washing the little lady’s laundry with this detergent to prep for her arrival.
Maternity Faux Leather Leggings: I knew I’d be missing my faux leather leggings when pregnant, so I was on the hunt for a maternity pair. I think I’m the only person that doesn’t like the Spanx pair, so I ordered a few to try from Amazon. I was really impressed with this pair! They’re under $30, so I don’t think they’re the best quality, but for what they are I approve!
Bulldog Swaddle Blanket: I mean I couldn’t resist adding this swaddle blanket to my cart. The little bulldog looks so much like Calvin!
Handheld Portable Fan: Everyone recommends packing a portable fan for the hospital, & since I’ve found myself running HOT lately I can see why! I love that this one can wrap onto things & think it would work to use on her stoller in the warmer months too.
Long Charging Cords: Another item everyoneeeee recommends for the hospital. I ordered two to have for Tyler & myself just in case!
Edamame & Mung Bean Fettuccine: Tyler has been trying to do low carb, and this is the best tasting “pasta” for the net carbs. When I used to carb cycle I ate this quite a bit. The texture is pretty close to regular pasta too.
Fuzzy Sandal Slippers: I didn’t need a new pair of slippers, but these were too cute & I love the hard sole.
Drawer Organizers: We needed some organizational help with the little lady’s dresser, so I ordered these & they’ve come in handy getting all of her stuff put away.
Baby Hangers: Another must have for the nursery! I just can’t get over how little they are!
Wrapping Paper Storage Bin: I always want to keep our extra gift wrapping, & it ends up in random places in the basement. I either can never find it or it gets dusty & I end up throwing out anyway! Hopefully this will keep all of that more organized as we go into the holiday season.
