Little Nurslings – a review!

Little Nurslings has been one of my favorite shops for awhile now.  Offering natural, high quality products, it is a shop you need to visit!

Being a nursing mom, I was loving  all of the nursing necklaces from Little Nurslings.  Especially because my little girl likes to pull my hair!  She’s getting big enough now that she immediately finds my hair and plays with it while she nurses.  Fun for her, not for me!

So, Sarah sent me this nursing necklace:

“This simple little necklace works great for keeping little hands occupied while nursing, bottle feeding, during diaper change or when being held/carried.. ♥

Natural, non toxic, high quality wooden beads are smooth and calming for babies/toddlers to touch and admire... at the same time being functional and beautiful for mama to wear everyday!

Beads are secured at the ends to keep them in place, please do not allow your little one to chew on the beads, this necklace is meant to be enjoyed through tactile and visual stimulation..

The satin cord is adjustable so you can wear it shorter when needed... I can make this necklace with either black or brown satin cord... please comment in notes to seller which one you prefer.. :)

Your necklace will come in a lovely organza bag for gift giving and storage.... “

I LOVE this!  Such a great idea and wonderful gift for new mommas!  With an adjustable cord, you can make it long enough for baby to easily grab onto.  Eliana certainly enjoys having something to hold onto!  What I love most about this necklace is that it is stylish enough to wear out.  So, while we are out and about Eliana can entertain herself with this instead of my hair!  Even when I’m not wearing it, Eliana likes to hold onto the beads. 

Here are a few other options from Little Nurslings:

Something for everyone! Visit Little Nurslings!  You won’t be disappointed!

Thank you, Sarah for allowing me to review this necklace!

Camping!

We went camping with some friends a couple weeks ago and had so much fun!  Eliana was so good, just loving the outdoors!  It always seems to rain when I’m camping, and this time was no exception.  We woke up in the morning to a down pour.  We were supposed to rent a boat and go out on a lake for the day, but the rain delayed us a few hours.  When it stopped it was beautiful!  We had lots of fun being on the water!

Family time is the best!  What does your family do for fun?

Busy, Busy, Busy!

Life is busy.  SO busy!  Having a baby really does make you feel like there is not enough time in the day.  Eliana is 4 months old already and it is unbelievable how much she is changing every day!

At 4 months:

-Eliana loves to stand!  I swear if she had the balance she would be walking, she is so strong!

-She still refuses to roll over – it scares her, her arms fly out to the sides.

-She smiles all of the time!  All I have to do is make eye contact with her.  She smiles at strangers in the store.

-Sleeping on average 5 hours through the night, although sometimes 7.

-Can sit up on her own for a couple of minutes, after a few minutes she is leaning so far over her face is almost on the floor.  She’ll be there soon!

-Everyone thinks she is 6 months old…she loves to nurse!

-Takes on average 4 naps a day.

-Talks and talks and talks!  All of the time!

-Chews and sucks on anything she can, but still no teeth.

We laugh so much during the day at the little personality that she is developing.   This is such a fun age.  I am so thankful to be able to stay home with her!
