favorite newborn accessory here’s my little secr favorite newborn accessory 

here’s my little secret to getting things done around the house with a newborn. I love the Wildbird baby carrier! It’s easy to put on and comfy for both of us. My baby boy always falls asleep and I’m able to have productive days. Homeschooling and checking off my daily household tasks is so much easier with this baby carrier. Also my baby boy is 12 pounds so I’m basically wearing a weighted vest and getting my daily workout in! 

I’ve linked this baby carrier on my LTK 🤎 #newborn #babywearingmom #wildbird #babycarrier #babywrap

I found the cutest summer reading chart at Target. This chart is a fun way to encourage reading throughout the summer. We love going to the library a couple times a week to pick out books. Here are two free summer reading programs that I love

📚Barnes & Noble: get a free book when you read 8 books & complete a reading log.

📚The Good and the Beautiful: free summer reading packets that includes a book, sticker sheet, bookmark, and reading log.

homeschool activities ♟️ So Maddie and little Ra homeschool activities ♟️ 

So Maddie and little Ray learned how to play chess and they’re so good at it now. They started taking lessons with the free @duolingo app and it’s been so helping in teaching them! Chess is a game of strategy that helps kids learn to evaluate positions, recognize patterns, and analyze “if-then” scenarios. Now it’s time for me to learn lol. 

Do you and your kids know how to play chess? I highly recommend Duolingo (it’s free) if your kids want to learn a new language or learn how to play chess! #homeschoolactivities #homeschoolmom #homeschoolcurriculum https://liketk.it/6dpfI

I also love having a seasonal capsule wardrobe which makes it easy to pick outfits that I love daily. 

These eyelet harem pants are so comfy and they are 100% cotton. Such good quality. I’ve linked this outfit on my LTK #walmartfinds #springoutfits https://liketk.it/6eG4M

Back to School Cleaning with Clorox

This post is sponsored by Clorox. The opinions and text are all mine.

Back-to-school time is here and this is one of my favorite times during the year! I always feel the need to organize, declutter, and clean to prepare for back-to-school time. I also love that with back-to-school time, there is more of a structured schedule with my day. I thrive best on a structured schedule. I always feel refreshed when I have a clean home. With the fall and cooler months approaching, it’s a top priority that I keep my home disinfected from viruses and bacteria. I love using Clorox Disinfecting Wipes! I feel a peace-of-mind when using the Clorox Disinfecting Wipes because I know my home is clean and disinfected.

Clorox at Publix

During the back to school season, I love to stock up on the Clorox Disinfecting Wipes at Publix. I typically do my grocery shopping every Sunday to prepare for the week. I always add a couple of canisters of Clorox Disinfecting Wipes to my cart along with all my groceries for the week. Publix has been one of my favorite grocery stores because they have so many great savings and their customer service is top notch. This makes going grocery shopping so much better, especially when I have my kids along with me. When I’m stocking up on Clorox Wipes, I love buying the different scents. My favorite is the Clorox Scentiva Disinfecting Wipes Pacific Breeze & Coconut 6 pack 75ct. I also love the Clorox Disinfecting Wipes Crisp Lemon 6 pack 75ct.

Weekly Cleaning Routine

During the back-to-school season, I love to establish a good weekly cleaning routine. During the fall and winter season, It’s important for me to make sure I disinfect my home. I’m a busy work-from-home mom, so I like to dedicate 1-2 rooms per day for cleaning. This also helps me so I’m not overwhelmed with trying to clean the whole house in a day. Clorox Disinfecting Wipes are so convenient when I’m cleaning my bathroom, countertops, doorknobs, etc. I love that these all-purpose cleaners disinfect multi surfaces, killing 99.9% of viruses and bacteria, when used as directed. Here is my weekly cleaning schedule below:

Monday: Bathrooms

Tuesday: Garage & Patio

Wednesday: Bedrooms

Thursday: Sunroom

Friday: Living room

Saturday: Kitchen/Dining Room

Sunday: Laundry Room

Gift Clorox Wipes to Teachers

It’s so important to show we appreciate teachers. They go above and beyond to make sure our children are learning. Teachers have been working extra hard within the last year with the transition of some students doing virtual learning and then going back to in-person learning. A great gift idea would be Clorox Wipes. I’m a former teacher and I would always love when my students would give me any type of cleaning supplies. With a classroom full of students, teachers are always disinfecting and cleaning their class. Clorox Disinfecting Wipes are Teacher’s #1 Wipe (based on TeacherLists, the leading platform for K-12 school supply lists in the US). As a way to show you appreciate your child’s teacher, you can also add a nice note along with the Clorox Disinfectant Wipes. I also love to give my children’s teacher gifts periodically throughout the school year.


I hope this blog post was helpful as we enter the back to school season! Also, be sure to check out my blog post on Back to School Guide: How to Prepare for the School Year

XO,

Ashley
