Amazon Lately

I love learning what other people buy on Amazon! So since it’s been a while since I’ve shared my favorite finds, here’s a peek into what I’ve bought lately!

This pill organizer has changed my life! Ha! Mom brain is real…..which means I always forget to give the kids their vitamins. Or I give them to two of them, and forget the third. This organizer is a total game changer. I love that you can pull out a single day and organize them by morning/afternoon/evening….or in my case child 1/2/3.

 

This skirted dance leo is so darling and such a steal! Sadie did three different dance camps this summer and she also had a growth spurt….so we had to stock up on leos! She loves this one the most and I love the price.

Another thing I didn’t know I couldn’t live without is my Scrub Daddy! This sponge/scrubber looks silly, but it’s awesome! Tough yet gentle, plus it doesn’t hold on to all the yucky bacteria. Yay!

Okay, this one may be a little gross. But it is a lifesaver! My bathroom sink was draining really slow and since we have a septic tank, I can’t use any chemicals to clean out a clog. I found this tool and you basically just stick the orange thing down your drain and move it around…..and then it pulls out all the gunk. It was SO nasty. But it worked! Plus there are multiple in each pack so you can toss it when you are done. I was so proud of myself for un-clogging the drain all by myself!

Another blogger (Andrea from Momfessionals) recommended this caddy for kid’s art supplies and I love it so much! I love how rustic it looks and how it holds so many things! It’s so cute!

Hudson’s teacher asked for these Erasable Highlighters and I thought they were so cool! I donated a few packs to his class but now I’m thinking we might need some at home too!

 

Finding cute boy pajamas that coordinate in big kid sizes has been a struggle. On a whim I ordered this pj set for Hudson and they are SO soft. They come in a ton of colors and they have a cute girly option too. Size up, they run small.

I have a feeling this next thing is something all women need, haha! These little razors are so cool….they say they are for eyebrows but they can be used anywhere on your face. All the moms know what I’m talking about. Perfect for your upper lip/chin area. Ahem.

This sleep sack is seriously the best! It comes in extended sizes (Belle wears the 18-24 month size with room to grow) and is soft and sweet. Plus it comes in a ton of different patterns. I like this one for warmer months.

This aqua mat is so fun! It comes with water pens so the kids can draw and create. Then once it dries it disappears and they can start all over again. Perfect for a rainy day!
