I hate teething. It is SERIOUSLY the worse. I joke that teething is nature’s birth control. It’s awful for the baby (they are in such pain and completely confused about what’s happening), it’s awful for you (you can’t get them to stop screaming), and it’s awful for anything located within 4″ of the baby (everything will end up in their mouth and gnawed on). But you know one thing that doesn’t have to be awful when it comes to teething? The tools you use to help sooth it. From teething necklaces to teething toys, I’ve found 12 totally cool and unique teething necklaces and toys for you and your baby to enjoy.
“Merry Everything” Graphic T-shirt and Onesie Featuring Cricut
Every other year, my little family and I spend the Christmas holidays in Texas with The Boy’s family. Those years are super fun because we’re not stressing about travel and my mother-in-law throws one FABULOUS Christmas Eve party. Tons of people show up and there’s always lots of food, music, and talking. The dress code is nice but casual so this year, I thought I’d toss the littles in some cute jeans and make adorable graphic tops for them with my Cricut Explore Air. Check out this “Merry Everything” graphic T-shirt and onesie (featuring Cricut)!

24 Completely Unique and Original Halloween Costumes For Kids
Okay, full confession, I’ve never been a big Halloween person. I don’t do scary, I hate the idea of knocking on strange doors, and I didn’t grow up in a house that allowed pranks. I did love dressing up when I was younger though – but I always picked really random and weird things. Like, a purple alien or a bunch of grapes. No princesses or fairies for me! If your kid is like me and likes to have a little inventive fun then be sure to check out these 24 completely unique and original Halloween costumes for kids!
