The Perfect Christmas Gift for my Mom!

Shop

22 Nov


Toothbrush: Target | Tee: Madewell | Jeans: Rag and Bone | Sweater: Hinge

This post has been sponsored by Philips Sonicare™ and I have received free product to review. All thoughts and opinions are my own. This is brand that I love and use every day!

My mom is my best friend. She's the one who has always, always been there for me and she's someone I can turn to for solid advice. She has a good head on her shoulders and isn't too emotional which enables me to trust her with anything from what bathroom cleaner to use, to relationship advice with anyone. It's easy when I'm with her because we have zero expectations for each other and we are both so easy going that we really don't care what we are doing as long as we are together.

One of my favorite memories of my mom growing up is during Christmas-time because my mom always made it so special, no matter how much we had. I moved around a lot growing up, and some of my most poignant memories were in a little red brick house that we lived at in the small city of Springville, Utah for 3 years. No matter where we lived, she would get out the same Christmas stockings with our names on them that she had made and it always felt special. My stocking had big painted Christmas lights on a string that were all different colors and I always knew that it would be filled with treats on Christmas morning. She would always buy those cute Lifesaver storybooks. If you're not familiar with them, they appear to be a book, and when you open them, there are rows of lifesavers. I think my favorite part is that I didn't really love the taste of that particular candy very much, but I knew she gave them to us because those were her favorite things at Christmas growing up, so she thought it was the tastiest treat that she could give us. Her parents gave her candy only once a year, so when they gave her those books of Lifesavers for Christmas when she was a girl, she would crush them up and make them last for months and month by savoring each tiny piece. It makes me happy to think about. And is my inspiration to make sure to give her a gift that is just as rewarding and thoughtful.

For most of my life, my mom has been an office manager for either a dental office or an orthodontic office. When I live in the same state as her (which is now, yay!), I like to get my teeth cleaned from the dentist that she works for. She has worked in multiple offices and literally every single dentist has always recommended the Philips Sonicare 2 toothbrush for getting my teeth the most clean while brushing. I skipped using my Philips Sonicare 2 for a couple weeks and used my manual toothbrush, and I literally could feel a build-up start to happen on my teeth. Ew!!

For my mom's whole life, she has had a white Philips Sonicare toothbrush which is all good and great until...uh oh...make sure you don't mix it up with anyone else in the house! I LOVE these new Philips Sonicare 2 Series Electric Toothbrush's that come in 4 colors- (all exclusive to Target) pastel pink, blue, steel, and aqua varieties!! That way, everyone in the house can have a different color and there won't be any mix-ups. This is the perfect Christmas gift. I love the blush pastel pink and know that she will, too. I'm a firm believer that the small things build a life filled with the joy, and I know that when she sees her pretty pink toothbrush, it will make her smile! You can buy these toothbrushes at Target and to save yourself from the last minute holiday gift stress, be sure to take advantage of the no coupon necessary savings on Target.com during Black Friday.

  • After my Epstein-Barr health issues and fighting for my energy last year I am now HYPER conscious of what I put in my body. I am a HUGE cheerleader of brands who actually CARE what goes into our bodies and have developed foods that are GOOD for us. We apparently don’t smile with our eyes but I PROMISE you we are happy and smiling about @jojoschocolatebark now being offered at even more Costco locations! NEW locations: California, Texas, Louisiana, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Ohio, Oklahoma, Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Michigan, Kentucky, Kansas, Missouri & Wisconsin (200+ Total)! Why I LOVE Jojo’s
  • One of my favorite people on this planet had her 30th birthday today! She is an incredible mother, an incredible entrepreneur, an incredible friend and such a beautiful human both inside and out.

  • We went skiing today and when we got to the top of the mountain my job DROPPED! Like actually dropped This photo doesn’t even do it justice!! I didn’t go skiing last season for some reason and I’m SO glad we are making it happen this year. Where is your favorite place to ski? I learned how to ski about 8 years ago when I decided that I didn’t want to hate winter any more. It’s cold in Utah for almost HALF the year! I needed something fun to look forward to in the snow! ❄️❄️❄️ #skiing #skiutah #snowbird
  • We need each other!! This picture makes me think about when Tyler and I hadn’t told a lot of people about our infertility. We had done 3 IUI’s and 2 rounds of IVF without a baby and I was physically and emotionally sick. I just needed a break so we decided to stop trying and just have fun for a bit. I wrote out our journey up until that point while up at 2 am with jet lag after we returned back from a trip to China (I had a miscarriage on an airplane there!) It felt so therapeutic that
  • This is just your friendly reminder to schedule your dental cleaning! Check out this cutie’s teeth! We had the opportunity to travel to Egypt back in 2019 and it was really special. I learn so much when I travel, but especially gratitude. Where is the coolest place you have ever traveled and would recommend to others, and why? #travelegypt #egypttravel #pyramids
  • What time do you wake up at every morning and what is the first thing you focus your attention on? If it’s different than what you actually do, what do you want to focus on first thing in the morning? (Harris and I rode his and Goldie’s scooters in the parking lot for an hour while we waited for her to finish dance class ) #priorities #focus #2021goals
  • My word to remind me of my intention this year is FOCUS. I want to focus on the things that are important to me, and in doing so I need to save time where I can! The @walmart+ membership has saved me HOURS of time. Almost every single week, I use Walmart+ free shipping, no order minimum on items from walmart.com (excludes oversized/freight & Marketplace items). Head to today’s blog post to see the benefits available to you and how they can save you SO MUCH of time like they have for me! #ad #Walmartplus
  • Hi! Question for you friends who have experienced/are experiencing infertility OR who have watched loved ones experience it: What was the biggest pain point for you? Where do you feel stuck the most? What gave you hope? What made you feel unsure? Please answer any or all of the above questions. Thank you and I love you! #infertility
