I recently posted over on my Instagram about some new bottles I'm loving by Twistshake. Their bottles are anti-colic and great for mixing formula or infusing fruit in your baby's water. They also come with a formula or snack container for easy on-the-go access. 

Here's the fun part... you have a chance to win one today! All you need to do is check out their bottles here and comment below with which color you would like to win (and leave your email address so I can contact you if you win). For those of you who cannot wait to see if you won you can use the code "natyouraveragegirl20" for a 20% off coupon. giveaway ends Tuesday evening. Good luck! 

I thought I would update this since having Blair (it's about time!). Having a baby can be so overwhelming so I thought that making a list of my favorite registry must-haves could help alleviate some of the stress of trying to figure out what the best products are. These are things that have helped us. Some items are worth the extra money in my opinion. Some items aren't chic (ahem, that ugly baby swing) but they really get the job done better than their expensive/attractive rival (the Mamaroo). I hope you find this helpful!

Are you recovered from your candy coma? Peeps or no peeps? Blair is a big fan and I secretly don't hate them either although the older I get the fewer I can stomach. We split our holiday over the weekend to keep things manageable. The Easter bunny arrived a day early and we had my family over for brunch. That evening we went to church and the following morning we had brunch with M's family. Annnnnd my diet starts tomorrow. ;)

No idea what this face is but it made me laugh. 

Cousins! Blair's romper by ThirtyFive and Lime

Of course the holidays are so much more fun with the kiddos. I can't wait till they are all running around picking up eggs and stuffing chocolate into their mouths. For now Blair is in charge of that. ;)

The Bible verse my mom chose for me is Psalm 37:4 "Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart." I love when I see it at random times...on coffee mugs, in a sermon, on a postcard etc. It brings me peace and reminds me to delight in Him first and that my desires will shift to be more like His.

Matt and I chose life verses for each of our kids and I thought it would be fun to share them here with you.

Blair: Romans 15:13 May the God of hope fill you with all peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. When Blair was born we struggled with having peace while she was in the NICU. This verse brought us so much comfort in a time of uncertainty and I hope it does the same for her.

Everly: Romans 12:12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, and faithful in prayer. Everly's verse is a daily reminder of how I want to be...joyful, patient, and faithful. I pray she leans on this when she experiences a season of waiting like I did. This verse encouraged me to turn from my anger, doubt, and fear and to instead rest in him who loves me.

Calvin: Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. We chose this verse specifically because of what it took to bring him into this world. We had to be confident in the Lord and turst in him even when things seemed hopeless. We want Cal to always remember that his hope remains in Jesus. We pray that he remains faithful even when his circumstances are hard. God always has a plan for us even though we don't always understand it. He is good all the time and cares for his children so much! 

Ever since the twins were born it seems like the holidays creep up on me so fast! I'm always scrambling to get things together last minute. Below are some items that I picked out for my kiddos' Easter baskets this year. The twins won't care but Blair has some super cute and fun items. :)

hand puppets: meri meri, swim shorts: cotton on, shark hat: gap, bunny: blabla dolls, shoes: gap, bunny jumper: cat and jack

felt bunny clips: meri meri, swim suit: jcrew, bunny: blabla kids, necklace: meri meri, egg decorating family: meri meri 

We ventured out and took the babies to my parents beach house for the last few days and it went surprisingly well! Blair is on spring break so we decided to give it a whirl and we didn't regret it. It took a lot of work but it actually did feel like a vacation. We had lots of helpful hands and staring at the ocean all day long has a way of relaxing you. ;)

It was a lot of firsts for the babies...including their first swim! Poor Cal jumped so much he got blisters on the bottom of his toes. :( My suit: JCrew

Evie was lovin' life with her Lala in the hot tub! Laid back...

Blair was the cutest mermaid at the pool! Suit by Cat and Jack.

Babies first time seeing the ocean. Clearly I didn't think we would be taking a picture ha ha. PJs and workout clothes for the win! 

Our favorite coffee shop in San Clemente...Bear Coast! A picture of my triplets ;) 

This is becoming a regular expression of Cal's and I freaking love it. 

We're rounding out our spring break by hitting up Disneyland today. Corn dogs for all! ;)

It's spring break! And we're attempting a beach trip...wish us luck! In the meantime check out these lightweight blankets by Swaddle Designs that are perfect for spring. You can grab yours at Target today!
