OOTD Spiffykerms Style

 

If there’s any uniform that calls my name – it’s this one. I will always be wearing these prAna leggings, and a black tee. I have multiples of both. This time I’ve paired it with my new Foo Fighters hoodie that I bought at their concert back in August, and some new Sperry Walker Chelsea boots. I know it’s not the typical footwear that you would see in the fall. Rainy season here, isn’t until the spring. However, chasing after two young boys who would love dirt. I thought this was the best option for me at this time in my stage of motherhood… rubber boots for me! I love them, they’re cute right? They’re something I can slip on and off easily without bending down to put on a shoe or tie laces, especially with a baby in my arms. Mornings are often chaotic and I reach for the easy to put on shoes.

You’ve probably seen me post about Sperry for years. But the thing is is that I only work with brands that I would buy myself or just genuinely love the brand. I’ve also said this before but Sperry is a brand that my parents used to wear on my uncle’s boat for years and to years until the boat was sold (I’m no sailor myself lol…. I’m prone to see sickness and I don’t know if that is something easily overcome and I don’t really want to find out ha!) But I do love the look of a classic boat shoe canvas boat shoe.

Loving the Oribel PortaPlay

My baby is finally old enough to use his Oribel PortaPlay that was sent to us when he was a newborn. Watch me unbox it when we first got it:

@spiffykerms Unboxing and putting together the @loveoribel portaplay activity center for my 7week old (lol… He won’t be able to use it for a while but for now my older boys will enjoy patting at it and playing). It grows with kiddo so once he’s done sitting in it (legs can extend!) the seat can be covered and a table top can be added and it comes with two little stools/seats! #oribel #mamaof3 ? Eel Mountain – Goth Babe

It’s super handy to have at this stage (he’s 10 months old) because as a Mom of 3, as much as I want to hold my baby, I can’t all the time. He sits in this and his two older brothers race over to give him kisses and hugs, and play with him. It grows with kiddo so once he’s done sitting in it (legs can extend!) the seat can be covered and a table top can be added and it comes with two little stools/seats!

Harppa Baby bassinet

I filmed this while I was still pregnant, not knowing baby would come just a few weeks later (and 6 weeks early). Glad I set this up when I did because it was his only crib at home for a bit, after he had a long nearly 3 week NICU stay.

@spiffykerms Unboxing my 3rd babys bassinet. the @HARPPA baby bassinet has rolly wheels (!!!) a clip-on super sturdy change pad, a little net – and it also turns into a little rocker????! #gifted #pregnantlife #baby3 #30weekspregnant ? original sound – spiffykerms

 

I’ve mentioned this a handful of times but I got rid of *everything* 0-12 months so I was adamant about getting a bassinet with wheels again because the convenience of rolling little one around the house is great. This Harppababy one has a bunch of neat features:

  • A removable change table (!! Which we use as our primary change station).
  • A cover for pokey brother hands.
  • A pocket on the side where I store extra packs and diaper cream, storage underneath (that holds burp cloths, swaddles and diapers).
  • A side that zips down so you can wheel baby to your bedside for easy night time feeds.
  • And the wheels come off and you can change it into a cradle.

I filmed a video of my baby using the bassinet back in December when he was 3 weeks old, take a look!
