When you are pregnant with your first baby, and you need to make a registry, it can be extremely overwhelming. I decided to make a list of my 10 newborn must haves. I’m not including diapers, wipes, and onesies. Those three are obvious. All of these items are the exact (or as close to as possible) to what I have used with my little ones when they were newborns.

Diaper Bag Essentials
My Diaper Bag Essentials My diaper bag essentials has changed since DJ was first born. My diaper bag is no longer for one newborn, it is for 2 toddlers (1 year old girl & 2 year old boy). Surpringly, I am convinced I have the same amount or less than I had when I had just had one newborn. This list is suitable for all ages, just adjust according to age and the amount of children. I try to have one diaper per hour I think I’ll be out. Since DJ is potty training I don’t need as many for him. Diapers & Wipes These are the most obvious items…

Two Under Two Is A Good Thing.
I know there is a lot of stigma around having 2 under 2. I remember finding out I was pregnant with Brooklyn when DJ was only 8 months old, and I panicked. He was only 16 months old when she was born. Now that I’m out of the 2 under 2 club, I truly believe two under two is a good thing. I know, you probably think I’m crazy. How is having two under two a good thing? You’ll have to trust me on this one. Now maybe it’s just that it was a good thing for me. Every child is different, as is every family. For my family though,…

Little Boys Have Long Hair Too
“She’s so cute!” “I love her hair!” These are two of the many statements I hear from strangers about my son DJ. My husband, David, and I always reply that DJ is in fact a boy. We are usually met with shock and a comment about his long hair. I’m not sure why even today long hair on boy is surprising. News flash boys have long hair too. Megan Fox recently shared a picture of her two boys on Instagram. She was shamed by people in the comments for letting her sons have long hair. They claimed she was encouraging them to act like little girls, and that she was a…

What Do Stay At Home Moms (SAHM) Do All Day?
What do SAHMs (stay at hom moms) really do all day? I mean it must be nice to sit around all day in your pajamas and do nothing except binge watch your favorite TV shows. That must be the life. I hear these comments far too many times a week… sometimes even in a single day. What I do all day is pretty simple: I make sure my children are happy and healthy, I try to keep the house as clean as possible while keeping an eye on a 2 year old & 1 year old, and I make 3 meals a day for my family (and supply my kids…
