I spent some time this quarantine scrutinizing our gift lists for the children for fairness and diversity and ended up buying a few additional pieces and some smaller items for stocking stuffers (lots of ideas along those lines here) for them and some other littles in our life. Some of the finds I picked up:
PLAY FOOD -- FELT THIS SET WENT WELL WITH BOTH MINI'S KITCHEN AND MICRO'S GRILL...I PLAN ON SPLITTING IT UP AND INDIVIDUALLY WRAPPING A LOT OF THEM IN TISSUE TO FILL THEIR STOCKINGS AND DRAW OUT THE SURPRISE!
BOUGHT MICRO THIS JELLYCAT...MINI HAS ABOUT 3,000 STUFFED ANIMALS AND MICRO HAS ABOUT FIVE AND LOVES HIS THREADBARE LITTLE ELMO. WE HAD TO OFFER AN UPGRADE
A BUNCH OF THESE TOOBS TO GIVE OUT TO OUR LITTLE FRIENDS
NEW BOOKS! FOR MINI: THIS CYNTHIA RYLANT, CARMELA FULL OF WISHES (HER DECEASED COUSIN WAS NAMED CARM) AND TWO BOOKS (THIS ONE AND THIS ONE) FROM JON AGEE, WHOSE BOOKS ARE SO FUNNY AND CLEVER AND MINI ABSOLUTELY LOVES EVERYTHING HE DOES
CAMERA FOR MINI -- THERE ARE CUTER STYLES OUT THERE BUT THIS GOT GOOD REVIEWS AND I WANT IT TO BE FUNCTIONAL/EASY TO USE FOR HER
We decided to sit on this gift until mini's birthday, but I did buy her one of these Tonies boxes -- it's a screen-free storytelling device young children can use on their own, and they have lots of Disney stories. So cute.

FOR THE THIRD OR FOURTH WEEK RUNNING, THIS HELLY HENSEN PUFFER FOR LITTLES
Thank you for the encouraging notes, emails, comments, DMs, etc on my post yesterday -- so many of us have been in the same boat during this period and it was spiriting to remember that we are never alone in our challenges. Amidst the many incredibly kind acts of generosity from friends and family this week (I truly feel spoiled), one of my girlfriends wrote me a text that said:
"I hope you are giving yourself lots of grace during this quarantine time.
...And that Uber Eats and Amazon toys are coming in hot."
Ha! Amen!
But truly -- a reminder to give yourself some grace with whatever you are facing at the moment.
Post-Scripts.
+For those of you who missed out on the tartan nap dress launch: these are very similar in style and only $88! Contemplating the black plaid...would work as a Christmas dress with a bump or if nursing, too!
+Ann Taylor is killing it in the festive wear department. This is a fab sweater.
+Striking dress...love it in all three colors actually, including emerald green (<<more fab green finds here)!
+Gorgeous coated makeup pouches! Honestly, makeup/cosmetics pouches are such a great gift. I already have many but would always welcome more. I always find ways to use them or just find them convenient for stowing in separate tote bags so I'm always ready to go. I really love the ones from White Elephant, too. They are very similar to Cuyana but maybe a little bigger in their sizing and I like that you can buy them separately versus as a set.
