Maternity Monday: Sahel Maternity Twill Smock Pants

My feed is trying to convince me that this is the summer of the pull-on-pant. This comfy style is perfect if you’re expecting. You can probably size up in a non-maternity version or try this one designed with pregnancy in mind.
These relaxed maternity pants have a soft twill texture, eco-responsible fabric, and stretchy waistband. The modern wide-leg silhouette is an obvious choice for the weekend, but it also works in a more casual office with a polished top.
Cache Coeur’s Sahel maternity pants are $115-$135 at Nordstrom and come in anis (pictured), copper, and beige. They’re available in sizes XS-L.

Did everyone have a nice 4th weekend? Despite the heat ours was incredibly fun but it was lots of late nights and pool time and I feel like we are all dragging starting off the week.
I’m sure somebody has a solution for this… my feral raccoon of a third child is necessitating me to lock up snacks… how do I do this in a way that doesn’t give my older kids a complex?
Longer version – we keep packaged snacks in the house because of a combination of convenience and really strict school allergy protocols. My older kids know the packaged snacks are only for when we’re out of the house and like – might grab a granola bar or bag of goldfish but it’s not a big issue. The four year old though… he has developed this fun habit where he ransacks the pantry specifically between 6-7am on weekends or when adults are doing crazy things like cooking dinner and will open multiple packages. It’s at the point where I am considering like a bike lock here.
Any good solutions? Like is there a combo lock that doesn’t make me look like a 90’s mom who put her 11 year old on weight watchers?
