I like hearing about new products that are fun or that make life a little easier. I thought I would share a few of my favorite things with you as we head into the weekend. (No worries – I was not in any way compensated to write about these products. These are just my honest opinions.)
- I love my Aerolatte milk frother. Coffee at home is a little more special with frothed milk. Yum! I hoped I would get my $20 use out of this and definitely have. You can froth any kind of “milk”(cow’s, almond, soy, etc.) and get great results. I bought mine at Crate and Barrel but it is available in a couple of different stores.frother
- I know nursing mommies often have a love/hate relationship with a breast pump. I can’t imagine what I would have done without this beauty. I would consider this a fitness “must” for any mom. Early on this pump enabled me the freedom to go for a run before Jack woke up. No way to attempt a run whilst full of milk. (sorry if that is TMI) And now that I am back at work I am so thankful that I can still provide milk for Jack during the work day and that we can resume our normal routine when I’m home with him. This double pump is efficient and really easy to use. Full disclosure: Some of you may remember that I interned with Medela in college. Because of my experience there in seeing the wonderful innovation and hearing product reviews I knew I had to have this pump on my baby registry. Off topic, imagine having “breast pump” on your engineering resume…and think about the typical engineer demographic. Sometimes those conversations started a little awkwardly.
- Bobbi Brown Beauty Balm. I go through phases were I am really into beauty products and times where that area takes back seat. I (strangely) have longer mornings now but am not really willing to cut into my giggle, singing and picture time with my little ham. I love that this product is a moisturizer, sunscreen, and foundation all in one. I love the result AND it saves valuable time for my mornings. (For reference I use the “fair.”)
- And my favorite baby (not available in stores)
Any products you’re loving lately? Have a great weekend!
I love the last product the best and can’t wait to meet him!! However, your breast pump made me giggle as I remember your internship along with stories and just the other day Candice asked if you were using that pump. 🙂
Can’t wait for you to meet Jack! And, yes, that pump is a life saver.
