Fall is my favorite season! I especially love all things pumpkin (yes, including pumpkin spice everything!). These cute pumpkin pillows are just what my living room needs for Halloween and beyond.
These festive pillows are made from cozy teddy bear-style fabric and have a twine-wrapped stem. Add them to your couch or even your bedroom for a seasonal update.
These pillows are $35.50 (for the smaller ivory one) and $49.50 (for the larger tobacco one).
Note: The pillows are low in stock and may sell out, so here’s another option from Pottery Barn: an indoor/outdoor pumpkin pillow that’s on clearance for $54.99.

Where do I look for first trimester / postpartum dress pants? I’m striking out at the usual suspects (Target, Old Navy, Gap, Loft, Macys). I’m looking for straight or bootcut or wide leg (not skinny) low or side belly band in simple black pants, and I am short. Old Navy has some options but they stopped carrying short length in maternity from what I can tell. I’m at a point where my normal pants are just not comfortable in the belly without unzipping them but definitely not ready for the full panel (I’m super short waisted). Any suggestions?
Dal is my favorite season too! On that note, I’m headed to Vermont this week with my almost 5 year old. Any tips for things to do with little kids? We’re flying into and out of Burlington and staying in Woodstock but we’ll have a car so anything in the general region of those two cities or in between is of interest.
Has anyone dealt with eczema past the baby stage? My 4-year-old son’s legs and crotch are constantly red, splotchy, and yucky even after he’s potty trained.
