Welcome to my first gift guide of the season!  I have a bunch of fun ones planned, and I can’t wait to share this one today.  Thanks for all the sweet encouragement about my gift guides.  If you’d like to be the first to shop them, and more content, please subscribe to the gift guide newsletter here.

One of the gift related requests I get the most in my DM’s on instagram is what to get a new mom.  When I say “new mom” I really mean any mom with a new baby!  Maybe it’s their first and you are looking to show the mom some love (always a great idea), or the second of the same gender so the baby doesn’t need more clothes, or its their fourth child and the mama needs some pampering.  These are those kinda gifts (:  Or maybe you are a new mom, and some of these pique your interest (send this to your husband!).

Three gift ideas that will give you more time for snuggling that baby, or a little time to yourself!

1.  A crockpot.  This one is super cute!  and this one is the mac daddy one.  and how cute is that super mom tea towel?  would be cute as a gift to go together!
2. a robot vacuum!  I love ours.
3. shipt grocery delivery!  this would make a great gift for a new mom.  This link gets you half off the membership price.

Some cute wardrobe update:

1.  I love this mamacita sweatshirt from Parker Thatch.
2. Barrington Bags have so many pockets, perfect for organizing a diaper bag.  You can customize patterns, colors, monogram, etc.
3. That cute Mama necklace is adorable, whether you’ve just had your first or you’ve had your fourth.

Hydrate, or Caffeinate:

1. This is the water bottle I use for my workout.  it holds 32 ounces, and has a spicket, which I prefer!  cheaper than a hydroflask, and I have been impressed with how cold it keeps my water.  Great for any mom, but if they are breastfeeding a good water bottle can be helpful in getting in the water you need.
2. For Coffee or Wine, I love my White Heather Monogram tumbler.  Perfect for gift giving! Maybe pair it with some Ava Grace wine (the packaging is beautiful, but the wine is good too!).  Heathers monograms are always so cute.  Reach out to her via instagram.

Three of my must have beauty items for tired skin and bags under my eyes:

1.  Shape Tape.  Y’all have heard me sing its praises for years.  It’s often the only thing I wear during the week.
2. The new Summer Fridays CC Me serum is SO Good.   definitely takes my skin from dull to bright.
3. Patchology restoring night eye gels – takes five minutes and your eyes will look less puffy – I pinky promise.  I’ve also loved these ones from amazon (way cheaper!).

Become hands free with these items:

1.  A backpack.
2. Or if you want something smaller (dads got the diaper bag) – a belt bag (i.e. fanny pack as most of us know it as!) is amazing.  I LOVEEEE mine.
3. Oventure key rings.  These are genius!  It’s so nice to be able to carry my keys and things OR someone, at the same time.  You can get 15% off with code SARAH15 
4. airpods – listen to whatever you want without waking the babe.

A couple things to get cozy:

1.  Lake Pajamas are on every gift guide for a good reason.  They’re amazing!  I love the look of these, and while I prefer the pima cotton ones, this set would be perfect for a nursing mom.
2. I had a mug similar to this one when Wes was first born – it says – “Britney survived 2007, you can handle today”.  Puts things in perspective (:
3. Birdies slippers.  Not only are they cuuuuuute, but they are so comfy.
4. cute eye mask 
5. Listen to relaxing music with this waterproof bluetooth speaker while you shower (showers were so precious when my kids were babies) or a podcast if you want to be productive like that.
