What I fed my toddler for lunch this week
One of the most surprising aspects of motherhood for me has been how hard it is to feed a toddler. Luckily my little guy is a pretty good eater, but for some reason, thinking of easy toddler lunch ideas is SO hard for me! I tend to resort to the same few meals over and over. I want him to be exposed to and learn to like lots of new foods so I’m trying to break this cycle ASAP!

Baby’s First Easter Basket Ideas
I’ve been looking forward to putting together Henry’s first Easter basket since before he was born! He arrived just days after Easter last year, so even though he will be over a year old this year, this will actually be his first Easter! This post will share what is going in Henry’s first Easter basket as well as some ideas for younger babies that I have found! You will notice that most of the items on this list are not specifically “Easter” toys, books, etc. I instead chose items that would be able to be used all year round. I also don’t want to spend a lot of money on…
