This post is from our Ergobaby Brand Ambassador Clara Aquino: A little list of must haves for parents of newborns (click the image above to view all of the item sources!): 1) Swaddlers They help to recreate that feeling of being snug in mama's belly; while also eliminating the need for blankets, which can be a risk for suffocation. Ergobaby swaddles are designed with a pocket at the bottom so you can easily change diapers while your little babe is still asleep. Genius. 2) A nursing pillow If you will be nursing your newborn, you'll find that you will officially become a walking, talking, milk machine.. I'm serious. It's pretty crazy how often you could be nursing your babe, so it's nice to have something that can support you and keep you + baby comfy during those long nights. Ergobaby has designed an amazing, supportive, nursing pillow that is firm and allows parents to be hands free (you don't need to rest your arm under baby like with other pillows) while nursing. It is two

Our signature padded shoulder straps and comfortable waistband allow caregiver and baby to adventure safely and comfortably…and not to mention in style! We offer many colors and patterns, so you’reI wish I could say I have a recipe box filled with stained, crumpled up papers with delicious meals passed between generations, but the reality is I’m an avid “Pinner” and cooking magazine addict who likes to try new recipes! Family recipes all need to start with someone, right? I have a few staples I tend to bring out every year (sweet potatoes with cornflakes and marshmallows for my Brother, salted caramel cheesecake for my Grandmother, etc!) but a tried and true favorite that I make every Thanksgiving are Green Bean Haystacks. I was never a fan of green bean casserole, but still love green beans and like to incorporate them into this holiday. These also look like they took a lot more effort than they actually do, which I love. Few things make me happier than people thinking I slaved away in the kitchen when it’s really just a five-ingredient dish.

Hey y’all! Kaelah here! I’m going to share a recipe my husband, Mike, and I use every Autumn to make the most delicious apple pie. I promise it’s not just any old apple pie either. I’ll be the first to admit that I’m far from an expert in the kitchen, but pies are one thing we can usually pull off. Every Thanksgiving we bake the family pies for the after-dinner treat, and it’s so awesome to see something we created bring happiness to those we love. We never go to any Thanksgiving dinner without at least one apple pie in hand. The thing that really makes this apple pie go above and beyond your typical recipe is that we prepare the filling in a skillet on the stove before baking. It’s a small, extra step, but it makes all the difference in the world. You’ll be amazed at how flavorful your pie is if you take the few extra minutes to do this! (Don’t worry! I did some mixing and rolling while wearing Linden, but Mike did the heavy lifting when it came to slicing the apples and doing the
