Smoothies for the win

One is such a fun age, from Elcies personality enhancing to the endless possibilities in food! I don't know if it's just me but I have thoroughly enjoyed discovering new meals with the excuse of feeding Elcie ;) one thing I've been looking forward to is smoothies for Elcie this summer! I loved smoothies as a kid and I couldn't wait to introduce Elcie to them! I decided to start a little early considering its in the 70s today so that's an excuse for a smoothie! 

She LOVES bananas and blueberries so I decided to use those two ingredients as an intro to smoothies (she is a picky little girl). 

For my recipe I made enough for her and me: 

•One ripe banana 

•one cup frozen blueberries

•1/4 cup milk (your choice)

•1 cup yogurt (your choice) we used vanilla 

Blend all ingredients and serve ;)

We ended up using her Insulated Stainless Steel No-Spill Flip-it w/360 Weighted Straw Cup. The awesome part about this cup is its insulated so she is able to take her time with her smoothie. She spent about a two hour span drinking out of her cup and it was still cold!

This cup is perfect for those hot sunny days when you're out an about. We also have the Insulated Stainless Steel No-Spill Flip-it cup which is basically the same cup just more room for more liquids ;) This cup I have used to store her cold food items instead of drinks! It has worked perfectly for the times that I drop Elcie off at someone's home and if they forget to throw it in the fridge it won't go bad! The cups are perfect for being thrown around as they are heavy duty and won't crack and are BPA free...plus they are adorable! 

I received these products for a review, all thoughts and opinions about this product are my own. Thank you for joining along my journey of parenthood.

The Vintage Honey Shop

If you've been around me in the last year you would definitely know that I am a mom ;) being a momma is seriously a huge blessing. Being able to watch your little grow into their personality and discovering the world is something I cannot put into words.

This last week Elcie turned one! I still cannot believe my little babe is one years old. She is so active, climbing on anything possible. She is 29 inches tall but louder than anyone I know. When she is being mischievous she always knows how to make me bust up laughing instead of being mad. 

That all said she does not like sitting still for hardly a minute at a time! I had the wonderful opportunity to team up with  The Vintage Honey Shop and try out their beautiful necklace with my little girl.

I love everything about this necklace. The fabric for one is me, I am obsessed with floral anything if haven't noticed already ;) but I love this necklace because it is the best thing to distract Elcie and to get her to just sit and be still. It pairs perfectly with my outfits so that I can wear it anywhere we go and then hand it to her if she needs a toy!  We are no longer bottle feeding due to baby girl becoming a toddler, but this necklace is absolutely perfect for you breast feeding or bottle feeding mommas. I know I personally hated my hair getting pulled in the midst of feedings! This necklace is perfect as well for older teething babies. It's easy for them to grab and chew on!

I got to say which to some this does not matter... But I loved the way this package arrived. I am into eye candy and this company personally wraps each necklace and it just made the product feel cared for!
