10 Lunch Box Posts

Updated: Jun 23, 2019



Yup, it's that time. Lunch packing & praying it's something they eat. Because we all know what HANGRY toddlers are like!

I am going to start a little highlight on Instagram and share our daily lunch but for ideas I have been scouring this book! And here are 15 posts from around the web to get the ideas flowing.






And below are some of our must have's for packing lunch!

// Lunch Box //

Ours is Pottery Barn (thank you Mimi) but I love this Bee one and this Unicorn one!

Perfect for leftovers, you heat up in the morning and it stays warm till lunch time.

Ice water in the AM in hopes that she continues to drink just as much water. I just ordered two to have just for school, so I am not scrambling for a clean one every morning (just read this on another mom's instagram and it's genius!)

// Bento Box // (I am waiting on a sale for these!) Love being able to feed them a variety of things, like we do at home. We have had this for a bit, I love that it's spill proof! /

// Silicone Muffin Liners // love these for keeping things separate in the sections, Zoe is at the different foods don't touch stage.

Love these, probably not great for the littles ones but it makes lunch fun. Anything so they both eat their meals!

self explanatory with littles ones and germsssss. I am keeping this in her bag, but also will be bringing the teacher a large one for her desk in attempt to keep Ami healthy!

love these for the stroller (snacks and milk), lunch boxes and even for traveling!

I like refilling this, instead of buying the travel ones. Perfect for smaller diaper bags, and I put one into goes lunch bag for after eating!

I like to write all my notes for the week on Sunday or Monday morning, and I like to include a joke for her to ask her teach to read.

All the labels for all the things. Better than sharpies.

For extra clothes, sweaters, jackets and later for winter gear.

Hope this help's!!

Back to School Favorites



Hey hey Happy Wednesday!

Can you believe that it took me since Friday to share this roundup? Goodness gracious. The whole my kid is starting Kindergarten next week is getting to me. I mean not sleeping well + major anxiety. And the fact that all of this transition has been hard for all of us also has me feeling like I am not doing ANYTHING 100%. And that my friends is just bleh.

One thing I am doing this weekend to ease the anxiety is get the rest of Zoe's back to school stuff in order, I'v ordered some new kicks (few different ones and sizes for her to try), going to wash all of her new clothes and have her put some outfits together. And also printed out a list of lunch ideas.

I think what is helping is knowing the routine will be great for all of us, one on one time with Ami too but more than anything I know she is going to do so well there. So onward we go!

But here goes in case you are still on the hunt for back to school clothes, some favorites from around the web.




Stretchy Denim Leggings

Velour Sweatshirt & Pants

Enjoy the rest of the week!!

8 Back to School Closet Updates



Happy Wednesday!!

I thought I 'd start my post blogging hiatus with a little back to school roundup.

Amazon is one of my favorite places to shop maybe because you can pretty much search anything, organic kids leggings, CHECK. But also, 2 day PRIME is a procrastinators dream. Since I have been unpacking and trying to find a place for all the crap we brought with us to New York City I've realized we have like 2 weeks till school starts for Zoe. Let's not even go to the fact that she is of Kindergarten age here. Let's just not go there. (we will be testing school in a classroom out again this year and seeing how we manage the germs, see how Amani handles it, see the post on her diagnosis here).


1. Love this line for leggings and tees. I mean look at these!! And loved Colored organics brand too.

2. Socks! knee highs (Zoe has these, Ami has these, love these for little boys and don't forget some white low ones for gym day!)

3. Fall Jacket. something light, that can be layered but still cute!

Denim jacket: Love this lacey denim one! And this dark denim one for girls, this Levi's one for boys and this baby one is just too cute.

Cargo jacket is always great in my book and lets not forget the moto jacket!

4. Athleisure for littles is my absolute favorite, I mean a track suit! Or these cute yoga pants, Nike shorts and tee for him. This yoga top is under $9!

5. Fall shoe! We usually stick to a cute dressy pair (these for him), a sneaker, or chucks and some boots (love these for a boy). Natives and Crocs still fit her so we'll clean these up for the warmer Fall days. This year I may also add some Uggs later this season.

6. New Pjs!

Love these organic ones, I love the neutral but Zoe would prefer everything to be pink and red... She is also super into pj dresses because that is what a queen wears to bed, of course. I also love how long Burts & Bees PJ's last!

7. Undies & Undie Shirts

I love love love these 3 packs of VNecks by Burts & Bees. These cami's. These muscle tanks. And for undies (girls or boys) I try to also stick with organic cotton but you know sometimes the princess wins.

8. A knitted Sweater.

I feel like this is a major Fall piece. This poncho is fridge adorable, (love this organic whole line!) This navy Boys sweater is so cute, and this yellow sweater may be a gamble but it is so cute and decent reviews, so I ordered.

So much more on this and maybe even a shopping haul on what I have ordered for Zoe (she'd like to model all her favorite outfits!
