Rachel’s picks:

Amazon sweater // I wear this basically everyday and already have 3 colors. So affordable and good price point for seasonal sweater.
Bucket bag // I bought this for myself last year and anytime we are running errands or I have an appointment or back in the day when we’d go for dinner, this is one of my faves.
Ugg fur sneakers // I can confidently say this is the best purchase of winter 2020 for me! I have the tan and black.
Fanny pack/belt bag // YES fanny packs are back baby. This is great for walking around city, hiking, anything!
Metro backpack // I use this as a diaper bag too now but before Ez this was my backpack for everything and it fits SO much.
Amazon sunglasses // best $15 ever and they look so cute and trendy. You’d never know they are so inexpensive.
Ankle weights // I splurged on these in October and have no regrets. I use them a few times a week for my quick 15 min work outs ha!
Moc clogs // don’t have these yet but they are on my list for holidays!
Denim jacket // another piece I LIVE in
Best sneakers // I have ordered these every year for 5 years. Soooo yes I am on my 5th pair and they’re the best sneakers ever and so comfy.

Mama’s to be:

Belly butter + belly oil // mama’s to be NEED lots of belly oil and butter. It’s one of my favorite parts of being pregnant. I rub this all over my stomach and thighs before bed and it’s great for postpartum with breast-feeding too.
Perform legging + align legging + power luxe legging // I literally live in leggings or sweats. I love all of these 3 and they’re so comfy. I usually size up except the maternity ones are true to size for me.
Knit pajamas // pajamas with buttons are a must for any new mama and if they are nursing, it makes whipping out your boob 10x easier. Plus you are home 24/7 with a newborn so might as well splurge on some comfy and cute pajamas.
Nursing bras // I have worn my nursing bras for 2 years now. So comfy and they wear well. I usually size up – these run small!
Compression socks // one of the not so glamorous parts of pregnancy – swollen ankles. I swear by wearing these socks when I am on my feet all day in kitchen and for photos.
Nesting robe // robes are a must have. So cozy and too comfy!
Nursing pillow // this is great for both nursing and Ez used to lay on it too.
Relaxing candle // any form of zen sounds magical to a new mom. This is my fave candle – it’s a splurge but it is magical.

Homebody’s faves:

Electric tea kettle // Jordan asked for this 2 years ago and it is my favorite addition to the kitchen. Perfect for tea lovers and boiling all the water when you are home cozy in the winter.
Cozy slippers // I am on my 3rd pair of these. SO comfy and they are cute to wear around the house.

Play table and chairs // the most aesthetically pleasing play table in the world if you ask me. And it matches Ezra’s highchair
Learning tower // we got this a few months ago and Ez eats his breakfast and lunch from it. He feels more included at the kitchen I am confused because he is at the same height as us ha!
Rain boots // Ezra’s nanny has him outside in rain or snow, anything and he loves splashing in the puddles so these are a must!
Winter sneakers // winter coming doesn’t mean Ez isn’t going to the park that’s for sure. These are extra warm for him!

Scooter // we got this for Ez a few months ago and even though he doesn’t actually “scoot scoot” he pushes it around and loves it.
Golf set // making Jordan’s dreams come true over here for Ez. Gotta start him young as he says..
Grocery cart // another cute foodie gift for Ez. He loves pushing strollers and his scooter around so I think this is awesome for him too!
Serenity Kids pouches // one of Ezra’s favorite favorite snacks ever! Ez eats these every single day and they are filled with organic meats, avocado oil and veggies. NO added sugars or fruits, making these an awesome snack to give to your little ones. Plus they just launched new bone broth ones too and they are one of the only ways to get veggies into some kids. Ez has them before his nap, when we are out and about, whenever!! He has been having them since he was 5 months old too. code RACHL for 20% off ALL orders over black friday!!

The McJordo’s:

Slipper boots // Ez and Jord both have these!! Great for the men in your life and they are so cozy and warm.
Running vest // Jordan’s pride and joy.. Kidding but not really. Jord runs 3x a week for long distances and he literally is obsessed with this running backpack.

Must-have Baby Things:

Playmat // I am obsessed with this play mat. We have had it since Ez was born and it is in such good condition still.

Baby bar soap / baby balm and oils // Ezra still uses this soap. It is super gentle and moisturizing and great for sensitive skin.

Bottle sterilizer // I used this for my pumping supplies too. I loved it and helped clean everything a bit more.
Sound machine + light // Ez still uses this as a nightlight every night. And it can also be a sound machine. Plus you control it from your phone.
Baby wrap // the best inside carrier!!
Diaper pale // not so glamorous but so needed
