Baby Kevin 11 Months

Well, it’s official, every month just flies by and the next time I will be writing this, I will have a one year old. That is so crazy to think about! It feels like yesterday I was put on bed rest with this little man in my belly. This month was full of playing catch up with work and spending time with our family on the weekends. We went to a lot of Kevin’s basketball games (he’s coaching) and we celebrated my mom’s birthday. We also sadly had two funerals this month, but are blessed that our grandparents are now in heaven.

Baby Kevin still is NOT crawling!! We are working with him every day and we see a ton of progress. He is trying to pull up on things and really wants to go! He loves playing with toys, and when you talk to him. He likes interaction and loves music + basketball (really any ball that bounces). He can clap, wave, give high fives and play catch. He is in size 3 diapers and size 9-12 month clothes. He can say “DaDa” and loves to babble. He is getting more and more expressive which is so fun to watch.

Brooke still adores him and they LOVE playing together. They will play in Brooke’s room for so long together and love reading books. He basically wants to do everything she does. Brooke loves giving him kisses and hugs. We started saying prayers with him before bed and Brooke likes to hold his hand. It’s so adorable! I love how much they love each other. Although, this month, she did put “lotion” (aka Desitin) in his hair. It was terrible (lol) – it took over 40 minutes to wash it all out! #parentingjoys

Our favorite baby product of the month is our new Beema Baby Bath towel and wash cloths (& blanket!!). I seriously LOVE this brand, they are a gem. I know there a ton of different baby brands on the market, and thankfully, I was introduced to Beema Baby through Instagram. They have the softest material and I quickly fell in love with their bath towels. Most bath towels are rougher and honestly, small. This hooded bath towel is incredibly soft, absorbent and HUGE!! It is perfect for Baby Kevin and Brooke. We were using it at my moms house the other night and she even commented on how its her favorite! The size is just great and you can wrap up your babies to keep them warm. I highly recommend them – check it out! Plus, head to my Instagram and enter to WIN $100 to Beema Baby!!!!!! & use promo code SIMPLY20 for 20% off your order.

I can’t tell you how many plates we’ve gone through over the years… and I finally made the switch to @ahimsahomeusa stainless steel sets and haven’t looked back.

No Stains. No breaking. No replacing. So much easier.

If you’ve been thinking about it — this is your sign 👀

  • #BISSELLPartner I really thought my floors were clean… until I turned this on 😳

The headlights showed EVERYTHING—dust, crumbs, all the stuff you don’t normally see—and honestly, I don’t have time to go over the same spot again and again, so this is a lifesaver.

Lately, I’ve been using the BISSELL PowerClean DualBrush™ and what I love most is that it handles real-life messes in ONE PASS.

From breakfast crumbs on hardwood to dirt in the entryway to debris in rugs, it just moves right through it. The dual brush rolls grab both big and small messes, and the AutoAdapt technology automatically boosts suction when it hits dirtier areas, so you’re not doing extra work.

& The FurFinder™ Upholstery Tool targets stubborn, pet hair and removes it so well! 

✨COMMENT “shop” for the link ✨ It’s also $100 off right now ($359.99 → $259.99) from 4/5–5/30! Do yourself a favor, add this to your cart!
