Amazon Home Finds – Part 2

Amazon Hauls· Home

One of my most dangerous habits I’ve developed since having my son is Amazon shopping at 3 am while breastfeeding 🙂 I just happen to stumble upon awesome finds at that hour and also ending up ordering (too much) stuff that I think we need/would be helpful/look good in the house!

Some of these items I have ordered myself already, and some are currently sitting in my cart waiting for another 3 am breastfeeding session for me to pull the trigger and click “order” 😉

I’ve done an Amazon Home Finds like this before just to share some things that I found that I think are super cute and people really liked it, so I thought I would do it again!

Small Rattan Lamp

Bought this and love it! Whenever I feed Theo in the night, I use an Elvie Curve (similar to a Haakaa, but more convenient in my opinion) to collect some extra breast milk, so I end up needing to go downstairs to the kitchen in the night to store it and put it in the fridge. Because the overhead lights are so harsh and I plan on going back to sleep, I wanted a small lamp in our kitchen to act as a nightlight. I’m not sure where I found this lamp originally, but it was over $100, and I was able to find this similar one on Amazon for under $40! Also found this one for under $70.

Glass Dome Cloche

Currently in the process of refreshing our bookshelves and I want to get a nice pretty candle to go in a cloche and thinking I will buy this one!

Rattan & Cane Boxes

I also think these would look great on bookshelves and want to get them! I think they would add nice texture to bookshelves. A little bit pricier, but the originals that I saw from McGee & Co were much more! They also look similar to these from Ashley Furniture for $87 and these from Wayfair for over $135.

Cane and Upholstered Barstools

I clearly like cane recently! We have been looking at getting new bar-stools for our island because ours are SO old and just plain white and are starting to show their age!

Glass Essential Oil Diffuser

So I really like the look of the Young Living essential oil diffuser but its like over $300 on Amazon :/ This one I think I actually like more! I like the texture on the glass, I think it makes it look ever better! And it doesn’t cost nearly close to $300!

Artificial Olive Tree

We have a space in our bedroom that desperately needs something, and while I really want to put a plant there, I don’t think it would get enough light, so I’m about to buy this artificial olive tree since:

a. I can’t kill it

b. It has AMAZING reviews

Checkered Fuzzy Blanket

I really love green lately and this blanket has been recommended to me so many times lately because it’s so soft!

4 Piece Cheese Knives Set

Although I’m not doing any entertaining currently, these cheese knives are so cute and come in gold and silver. They look exactly like the silver ones I have from Crate and Barrel!

Colored Wine Glass Set

Again, I’m not doing any entertaining currently, but I LOVE these wine glasses! They are so colorful and fun! Would be great to help people know which glass is theirs without tacky looking wine charms. I also like these colorful glasses for cocktails.

5 Piece Wooden Spoon Set

I have to replace my wooden utensils because mine are SUPER old, and these are beautiful teak wood!

I made these carb-balanced/blood sugar friendly/hi I made these carb-balanced/blood sugar friendly/high protein breakfast muffins often in my first pregnancy and honestly have enjoyed them well beyond pregnancy! They’re only 5 ingredients and give the bready texture I was missing when I had gestational diabetes. It’s kind of similar to a sausage ball! I normally eat 2-3 muffins for breakfast as each muffin has about 7 grams of carbs and 12 grams of protein!

5-INGREDIENT SAVORY BREAKFAST MUFFINS
* 1 pound of turkey sausage (or whatever type you like)
* 4 eggs
* 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
* 1 cup Kodiak cake baking mix
* 1/3 cup cottage cheese

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350℉ and spray a 12-cup muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray
2. In a pan over medium heat, add the sausage and crumble while cooking. Cook until no longer pink. Remove from heat and allow to cool briefly.
3. In a bowl, crack the eggs and lightly beat. Add shredded cheese, kodiak mix, cooked sausage, and cottage cheese and mix well (mixture will be thick)
4. Fill the 12 prepared muffin cups evenly with the mixture.
5. Bake for about 22-25 minutes or until golden brown on top

Recipe Notes
If meal prepping for the week, store leftovers in a container in the fridge. You can heat by microwaving for about 1 minute. I prefer to reheat them by microwaving a couple for 15-30 seconds and then pop them in the air fryer at 350 for 3-5 minutes.

When I had my first child, I underestimated the po When I had my first child, I underestimated the power of a peaceful bedroom to recover postpartum and exist in the newborn bubble. It might sound kind of silly, but I want to create a peaceful haven in my bedroom for postpartum because the newborn trenches are tough! 

I’m going for neutral in here, but more layered, earthy, textured and elevated (without feeling formal). Next up is styling my bed, giving my nightstands and dressers and makeover, and lots more decor and styling! #homediy #pregnancy #bedroommakeover #bedroomdecor
#SecretDeoPartner On days when I don’t initially f #SecretDeoPartner On days when I don’t initially feel my best, I try to be intentional about doing simple acts to turn that feeling around: putting on a cute outfit just to wear around the house; decorating for fall (arguably) a little early; or wearing an amazing scent. The Secret Cocoa Butter Invisible Solid is my FAVORITE, and its all day freshness gives me a boost of confidence throughout the day. #RomanticizingLife #ToddlerMom @secretdeodorant

Sometimes, boys have childhoods that are centered Sometimes, boys have childhoods that are centered around traditionally boy-ish things like trucks and sports, and while my son LOVES those things, I think boys don’t always get all the whimsy that girls get. Whimsy is for girls AND boys!! Every childhood deserves to be whimsical 🥰 #toddlermom #toddleractivities #whimsy #whimsicalhome
