As you know, I love love love love love love LOVE Lands’ End.   And I always have Lands’ End on my bod at the pool during the summer, as does my little girl, Sophie.  She’s had nothing but Lands’ End suits the past two summers and they are phenomenal!  We go to the pool several times a week and her suits always look great – never faded!  They stay put and keep her comfy, too.  So when Lands’  End asked me if I wanted to review a spring kids’ item, I was thrilled that the girls’ ruffle suits were available!  Here’s Sophie in her new suit!  Even though it’s FREEZING here today, I can’t get it off of her!  She’s been wearing it for a couple of hours now.

I’m a big fan of the tankini for myself and also for Sophie. This two-piece is very easy to get on and off, yet it’s modest AND adorable. And I know, because I’m a Lands’ End loyal customer, that this suit will look as good at the end of the summer as it did at the beginning.

I tried to get Sophie to tell me why she likes her swimsuit, but she was more interested in seeing herself on video! But, I promise you, her favorite part is the ruffles! And she’s been dancing around in it all afternoon so I guess it makes her feel good!

If you’re looking for the perfect suit for your kids this summer, I HIGHLY recommend you shop Lands’ End! You won’t regret it, and your kids will love their suits!

I received a Lands’ End girls’ bathing suit for my daughter for review.  All opinions about the product are mine and Sophie’s.

Sometime during my pregnancy with Jonah, I decided I was going to try something new with this baby – nursing clothes.  I’d never had a nursing top before, even though I nursed Joshua for over a year and Sophie for twenty-three looong months!  This time I really wanted to find some cute and functional nursing tops.   I bought one that I really like – the style is really cute and it’s very functional, but the fabric hasn’t proven to be the best quality. Fortunately, Milk Nursingwear sent me a top to review and the quality is great!  I had first heard of Milk over a year ago when I got a couple of items from them for a pregnant friend, and I was so glad to try one of their tops myself!  I chose this knot-front top:

I really love this top!  You just pull the fabric over to nurse, it’s so easy!

I also love the way this top flows out at the bottom.  Perfect for covering up that post-baby belly.  Which is another great thing about a nursing top – not having to lift my shirt and expose my flab!  It’s discreet in more ways than one.

I couldn’t be happier with my Milk Nursingwear top, and I’m definitely going to order a summer style or two.  They have cute dresses, too!  I think that’s especially great since it’s so difficult to find dress styles that you can nurse in. You can check Milk out at their website where you can also get some  of your favorite nursing bras, tanks, and accessories!

As I may have mentioned a few times, I’ve been working with Mom Central Consulting as a Ralph Lauren Mom Ambassador for the past few months.  To wrap up this program, I’m reviewing and giving away one of their Create-Your-Own kids’ polo shirts!

The polo is of course, an iconic Ralph Lauren item, and with the create-your-own option, you can add monogramming to make it even more special! Ralph Lauren allowed me to create one for review, and I had one monogrammed for Emily’s daughter, Kate. It is adorable! It’s the perfect combination of classic yet unique style.

Would you like to create your own polo for your little one?  You can enter here to win!  Simply leave me a comment on this post telling me who you’d create your polo for.  One winner will be chosen at random on Friday, March 5th at 6 pm.

Good luck!
