The Baby Bird Boutique - Friday Drop Shopping Tricks & Tips!


This isn't news to you, but we're huge The Baby Bird Boutique fans.

D has been promoting the brand and wearing precious rompers, peplums, and dresses since she was tiny and  we will be lifelong supporters of the mama bird behind this shop who has been with us through so many milestones. She inspires so many and I'm just lucky enough to have had the chance to learn a little under her wing.

I've recently shared a few posts involving our favorite brand and dishing out the deets on mama bird, but you know what I've failed to do... TEACH you how to shop the brand.

Wait... what? I know you're thinking you know how to shop... but if you're new to this small shop, you should probably pay attention. The cuteness factor makes these babies sell like hotcakes... and I'm also going to share how you can snag some epic discounts.

First, let's chat about how to navigate the website - TheBabyBirdBoutique.com is where the magic happens. You'll want to be present at 10:00am central time, refreshing the website, and be ready to cart! If you want to get something, don't hesitate... I've had items PULLED out of my cart while checking out so be quick!

Navigating the site quickly is a little tricky though, only because Dorie has so graciously sorted the collections in a multitude of ways and when you're in a scramble to cart. This is fabulous if you are leisurely shopping, but on drop day, it's nice to have a clear path mapped out to get what you are wanting. The quickest way I've found to access the Friday "Drop" is to click on the "Drop" tab under the shop tab. That's where all the newbs will be hiding out and they are always AMAZING and often fly out of the store.

With that said, if you need a solid for an upcoming event or you're in a hurry to complete the perfect #ootd, then check out the other tabs and see what is in store. But, be mindful of the season and order accordingly, solids are only available in certain shades to coordinate with the season, so don't expect to snag your red white and blue during the fall. As for right now, you can get your hands on some of our favorites - including coral and turquoise and this weeks blue floral drop is TDF... so I suggest you go ahead and cart your solids before Friday's drop and have them ready & waiting for you to check out with the new blue floral!

Which leads me to my next BBB bit of advice - always spend $50+, then you save on shipping! I'm a firm believer on spending more on clothing than spending anything on shipping. I'm a goof like that... but surely I can't be the only one who feels this way? With that said, I know you're probably a huge fan of coupons as well... so don't forget you can  score an epic discount with the code DELAINEY!

Speaking of discounts, if you happen to be a member of The Baby Bird Boutique VIP page or following The Baby Bird Boutique page, you probably have noticed mama bird HOOKS US UP on the regular with discount codes... including flash sales and access to epic coupons regularly! If you aren't on the bandwagon yet, I suggest you "like the page" and join the group... these discounts are amazing and you'll often catch special sneak peeks of upcoming collections!

So tell me, what kind of Baby Bird Boutique posts would you like to see here on the blog in the future?

Also... this isn't necessarily related to carting your next The Baby Bird Boutique items, but if you're a fellow die hard BBB fan - it's time you consider repping for the best team ever. The Baby Bird Boutique is seeking new members for their rep team and your babe could be the next one. Check out the BBB instagram before 6/25 for all the details and follow the directions to a TEE to be entered for the chance to be a member of this epic team!

Save on Potty Training Essentials

This post is sponsored by Huggies, Pull-Ups, GoodNites but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.



As you probably already know... I pretty much have the best husband ever and frankly, I think D agrees most days.

https://ooh.li/1a68544


He does so much for D and I, it amazes me each time I see him do something thoughtful and helpful for our family. I don't know he does it, but on a daily basis I wonder how I got so lucky... and while I hope he feels the same way, I'm really hoping he'll like his little father's day present I decided to get him.

https://ooh.li/1a68544


After sending him on weekly trips to the supermarket to get diapers since D was a newborn, I decided to take it upon myself this month, in honor of Father's day... I'm stepping up and taking on the responsibility of grabbing the diapers and it's been so much easier than I could have imagined.

https://ooh.li/1a68544


I mean, don't get me wrong, I love buying from the local markets but buying from Amazon and having pull ups and diapers delivered next day (or at least with a couple of days) is so easy. The best part is you can save $3 by clipping the coupons on the site AND if you subscribe and save you'll snag another 20% off...


https://ooh.li/1a68544


So if you're a fellow toddler mama, grab your kiddos and get ready to save on their potty training essentials now!

Girl's Night Essentials!

This post is sponsored by Poise® but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.

Let's get super awkward and real here...


https://ooh.li/578f8a1

 Mom life is tough... and so rewarding. It's the best thing I've ever experienced and also the most challenging, from staying up late at night soothing tummies to the wild mornings chasing her around, it never stops.... but she's so worth it.

I wouldn't trade her for the world, don't get me wrong. She's my everything... but I also wouldn't mind having a mom's night here or there or planning a girls weekend some day. 

While I'm over here daydreaming about my next adventure, I'm also being realistic and planning what I'm going to bring on this little vacation from parenthood. Funny thing is, the ticket isn't booked for our girls weekend yet and a mom's night is something I desperately need but also haven't scheduled yet.


So you're probably wondering, what's in my mom bag for my plotted mom's night?

Here's the scoop, I plan to pack the essentials and that's it. So I'll have some jewelry, my favorite pair of heels, a fun simple game to play with my besties, a few of my favorite sundresses... and Poise Contour fit, for those moments when I or someone in our group laugh a little too hard at our inside jokes and our mom bladders show how incapable they can be. LOL.

https://ooh.li/578f8a1

It's not fun to talk about, but it's a reality. One that Poise has nearly eliminated.

Are you a fellow mom who could use a getaway.. or maybe you're also feeling like you need to try Poise? Be sure you check out this coupon to make sure you save when you stock up on your essentials and lucky for you, it's almost all available at Walmart!



How I get my EASY beachy look with Dove!

This post is sponsored by Dove Hair Care but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.


https://ooh.li/c5566fa



Having naturally wild curly hair, I've had to learn to pick my battles.  Some days, it's just not worth all the effort of blowdrying and styling the curl out... especially living in Florida. It's been a lifetime long battle of treatments, products, and gizmos to try and tame the frizz and keep it looking polished.

But, lately, I've been embracing the curl... there's just something so beautiful to simplicity... So I've been using less products and gadgets to try and tame my mane... and honestly, it's looking healthier  than normal thanks to Dov.

Wondering how I achieve my easy, beachy hair?


https://ooh.li/c5566fa


It's simple... I wash with Dove Thickening Ritual Shampoo and Conditioner, then I just towel dry, brush with my fingers, and apply a little leave in conditioner... Once it's almost dry, I spray a smidge of Dove Compressed Flexible Hold Hairspray in to help with the frizz and then I let it go.
My hair NEEDED some TLC after years of mistreating it, so finding this way to hydrate and let my hair rest, while also not having to deal with a handful of products is a huge bonus



Are you a fellow curly girly? Check out Dove.... and see how this line can help you restore and beautify your mane.
