Summer is the best, right? I feel like this is our best summer yet with the kids. It’s just easier this year with them getting older. Beach days are simpler, the pool is fun for all of us now (Fletch used to be iffy about it unless you were holding him), and we are no longer scheduling around naps. BUT there is a lot of time to fill. And while my family room has turned into the kids’ private movie theater, you can only let them watch so much tv. So I’m really excited about partnering with Seedling this summer.

Seedling creates really cool activity kits for kids. They have tons of unique activities spanning many different themes and age ranges that are perfect for your child’s imagination on long summer days. I ordered 4 kits that I knew my kids would love.

The Make Your Own Paper Doll Friends kit has been a big hit over here. It’s filled with approximately 30 paper dolls, so this is a project that Lilly & Fletch have been working on for awhile. And like all the kits, it comes with all the supplies you need, even glue.

Lilly was really excited about this PomPom Hair Accessories kit. She loved making headbands and new hair ties.

Easy enough for her to do, too. Each pompom has two strings attached that you just tie on.

This Beads Kit is a really fun one, too.

She did this completely on her own. I’m impressed.

Like mother like daughter, Lilly digs pom poms, too. Especially on breezy white tops that go with everything.

Edit: Please keep Charleston in your thoughts and prayers after last night’s tragic shooting at a downtown church. So senseless and sad. Praying for peace for the families.

 

Did you know that this Sunday June 21st is national Wear Your Lilly day? As in Lilly Pulitzer. You’re probably not surprised to learn that my Lilly loves Lilly, because duh. It’s even spelled the same. So this a holiday she’s especially pumped about.

Lilly also likes ice cream. Any other locals love Beardcat’s on Sullivan’s? The chocolate chip flavor is our favorite, as seen here :)

Isn’t her little LP blue shift dress adorable? She regularly comes downstairs in it. We’re heading on a family vacation soon and she’s already announced that it’s her best Florida dress, ha!

 

lll_streetstyle_lillyp-3

 

My yellow dress is Lilly Pulitzer, too. And it goes perfectly with my summer white La Mer wrap watch.

In honor of skin cancer awareness month, I want to share a brand that has been one of my favorite sources for my kids’ rashguards the past couple of years. Have y’all discovered Cabana Life? All of their suits, coverups, and rashguards feature 50+UPF protected fabrication.

Sun safety is super important to me. I’m a sunscreen freak (this sunscreen recommended by my dermatologist is my most favorite), and I try to sit in shade whenever possible. Obviously Lilly and Fletcher aren’t going to just sit under an umbrella, so protective swimwear and sunscreen are my best defense.

 

LLL_lillylikes_rashguards-3 LLL_lillylikes_rashguards-4 LLL_lillylikes_rashguards-6

 

And the designs are cute!

 

LLL_lillylikes_rashguards-5 LLL_lillylikes_rashguards-7 LLL_lillylikes_rashguards-8

Neighborhood strolls with the kids is one of my favorite things to do :) The weather is perfect right now here in Charleston so we’ve been trying to enjoy it before the humidity takes over the city.

Lilly is wearing her new favorite Old Navy dress. It’s the prettiest shade of blue and has pockets for collecting things. So easy for her to throw on and go.

And the Old Navy pink strappy sandals kill me. So adorable.

As much as we love precious things around here, we also appreciate adorable clothes that the kids can still get down and play in. Clothes that are great for exploring, running around with friends, picking flowers, and eating ice cream. That’s what Lilly’s outfit is all about today.

 

lll_lillylikes_whitefence-7

 

This embroidered stripe top from Old Navy is not only adorable and comfortable, but it’s also only $17 (and an additional 25% off right now).

 

lll_lillylikes_whitefence-10 lll_lillylikes_whitefence-13

lll_lillylikes_whitefence-16 lll_lillylikes_whitefence-18

 

And the sandals are what she’s regularly been grabbing to throw on this past month (I pay attention to those sort of things since she likes to dress herself). So we know they’re cute and comfy!

 

lll_lillylikes_whitefence-19

Lilly’s entire outfit is 25% off right now because Old Navy is currently offering 25% off everything! I also love this pompom cover-up and these glitter slip ons!
