Happy New Year! As my first blog post of 2021, I’d like to share some of the items that the twins and I are enjoying for the new year! Today’s post ranges from bath time to working out and a pillowcase that I just purchased!

This week’s theme of the week is Sweaters and I’m sharing my daily looks in Stories on Instagram. If you didn’t catch last week’s theme, it was all things leopard. You can view the post here.

1. New Bath Time Toys

The twins got these ADORABLE hooded bath towels for Christmas and I absolutely love them. Every night after bath time, we play this little game…..I bounce them around a little and we sing “Nannacorn” or “Bubbasaur.” Yes, my children have give each other the nicknames of Bubba and Nanna 🙂 So, Bubbasaur because Sullivan’s towel is a dinosaur and Nannacorn because Savannah’s is a unicorn. The pic is a little blurry – I blame it on the bouncing!

I also upgraded some of their bathroom accessories – like this fun mat, a new scoop, foam animal puzzles for the sides of the tub, and light up toys! The scooper is for their new toys and is awesome because it hangs on the side of the tub and all the water drains out!

2. Bubbles & Joy Co

And keeping with the bath theme……how fun is this? Bubbles & Joy is a monthly subscription box that contains new fizzy and foamy bath products, premium toys, and activities (like waterproof books!) Monthly subscriptions start at $39 a month or you can choose the “Original Box” as a one time purchase, also at $39.

3. SWEAT Challenge

Today is Day 1 of The Sweat Challenge! I am following the PWR at Home program by Kelsey Wells. The challenge is full of exclusive work outs only found in the SWEAT app (found in the app store.) There are 10 different programs you can choose from, with 9 being “at home” and 1 program for in the gym. When it comes to working out, I always perform better when I follow a set program. Last year in the fall, I was following the PWR at Home program pretty consistently and really saw results and was so proud of myself. Then, life got extremely hectic, the holidays hit, and I totally lost sight of how I was eating and working out. I am really hoping this challenge will get me back on track (I mean, bathing suit season is really just around the corner!)

4. Pillowcase

I will be moving out of this house at some point this summer (or so I think…..) so am really limiting the amount of money I am spending, especially on “home decor;” however, when I saw this pillowcase from Amazon, I couldn’t pass it up. I think it is absolutely gorgeous and will be the most beautiful accent pillow for the spring and summer! Click here to shop it!

5. Old Navy Active

Old Navy is doing up to 50% off of Activewear! From what I could find, most of the items are 30% off when you add to cart. So, for example, in the items below, once you add them to your cart, 30% will be taken off automatically without a code. This is a great time to stock up on active wear – especially with all of those new year goals (and as mentioned before, bathing suit season is quickly approaching!) I don’t buy work out clothes that often but LOVE when I do. There’s a 99.9% chance I am going to order these $12 leggings!
