What’s Hot Wednesday: Rocking Our World

I’ve been blogging for a long time and I’m always learning. One thing you’ll find here is products we are actually using! Some of the links in this post are known as affiliate links. This means if you do buy something, I may earn a couple dollars at no extra cost to you. That’s it; there’s no catch!

I used to write three personal posts every week! I only had two kids and I wasn’t working, so it wasn’t a far stretch, but I didn’t ever post on weekends, for the most part, or on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It was Monday, Wednesday, Friday like clockwork! I know some people got annoyed when I started doing sponsored stuff, although only one troll was ever vocal about it. That was so long ago I hadn’t thought about it in ages. I was so happy to be working from home with my young children and I said yes to nearly everything. I’m not saying I did everything with integrity and heart, but I do now. It’s all a learning experience and I’ve grown to really love working from home, even with all of the stressors, and I don’t think I could ever go back to working outside the home or having a boss. No, not for me! One thing I’ve put off for years is getting into affiliate marketing. I just always think I won’t be good at it, and maybe I won’t, but why NOT tell you about the things we’re using over here? I mean, how could I not? So on Wednesdays, we’ll share a what’s hot list of 10 hot deals, steals, and just plain what gives us the feels right now. That’s it!

What’s Hot Wednesday: Rocking Our World:

1 – THE Baby Playmat:

I’ve had a lot of baby playmats in my days, but there is NOTHING like The Play Gym by Lovevery. For me, it’s a cushy place to put Sawyer, where he learned to roll over, where he watches himself in the mirror, where he plays with toys, and where he will eventually love it as a little fort, when he’s a little bigger. It is PERFECT.

From the brand:

Give your child the best possible start with our Parent’s Choice award-winning Play Gym. Designed to grow with your child from newborn to toddler, this play mat provides stage-based activities that engage them throughout their first year.

Key Features:

Grows with your child from age 0+ months for playtime with purpose
5 Developmental Zones with activities that foster exploration and growth
4 detachable activity toys, 4 sets of cards
Play Guide with stage-based tips and activities developed by experts
Play Space Cover transforms the baby play mat into a cozy fort for toddlers

2 – THE Cutest Hat Ever:

You KNOW I love Shop HoneyBug, so I had to grab a Winter Blue Forest Knit Beanie Hat for Sawyer! It matches his eyes, after all. Plus, you can use code: FALLBUG to 10% off your first order!

3 – THE Yummiest Subscription Box:

I shared about Wildgrain earlier this week, but it bears repeating. Monthly boxes of yummy and festive breads, pastries, and pastas. Simple as that. Wildgrain boxes make the best gifts ever, and are also good just for you! And, good for you!

4 – THE Fire Pit:

If you’ve been looking for a fire pit, this is actually the best time of year to get one! You’ll find great deals, and those cold nights are wonderfully warmed by a fire pit and some s’mores. We just got one from Sunjoy Group: an AmberCove Outdoor 38 in. Brown Wicker Propane Gas Fire Pit Table with Lid. Sunjoy has wonderful discount codes. Get 13% off and free shipping with the Sunjoy Group promo code: TAMARACAMERA13

5 – THE Robot Vaccum:

We’ve actually tried a few robot vacuums and there is nothing like the Neato D10! We call her Bessie. She deals with a lot of pet and human messes, so she deserves all the applause. Neato Robot Vacuums are perpetually on sale. Right now she’s on sale for 40% off so you can save $200. The time you will save is priceless! What are you waiting for??

6 – THE Chocolate:

Gatsby Chocolate is just.. amazing. It’s the lowest calorie chocolate around, has a variety of amazing flavors, and they just make me happy. I mean, I always say that chocolate is good for the soul, and “healthier” chocolate is often disappointing. This. Isn’t. Just try it. And tell me what you think, please!

7 – THE Coffee:

You have to have coffee with chocolate, right? And Death Wish Coffee is what you need to handle four kids, work, four works, one kid, whatever! Some say it’s the world’s strongest coffee, and all I know is that it’s roasted to perfection. It’s bold and never bitter!

8 – THE Bedding:

We decorated half of our house with Lush Decor! I love, love, love their textures and patterns. Just the best. They have a heartwarming partnership with Make-A-Wish Foundation that you HAVE to check out. And right now you can save BIG! Save 35% Off Stylish Home Decor At LushDecor.com with promo code OCT35.

Specifically, Sunnydaze Letters to Santa Indoor/Outdoor Mailbox Decor! LOVE this! It’s so magical and we have one on our way. So good for a public setting, or a school, post office, home, neighborhood, whatever! Magic!

10 – THE Coffee Maker:

The Tribest Automatic Pour Over Coffee Machine is the coolest! Get started making gourmet pour over coffee in your own kitchen without any training. In under 6 minutes, you can extract a full-flavored cup of coffee with hot water heated up from the Raw Tea Kettle^® and Lifeboost Medium Roast Organic Coffee. It’s so easy and flavorful!
