TODDLER IN VAIL ALERT: WHAT TO BRING

 

We had our second annual family ski trip with Kyle’s fam! This time around, we went to Vail, Colorado. If you want to read up about our first ski trip ever with Ollie to Aspen, how it went & what we brought: click here.

A lot of you messaged me about your own upcoming ski trips! It’s so exciting! Below I have gathered links of what we took with us for this Vail trip. Without Ollie’s nana, I would’ve never known what to take or where to find…I hope this helps some of you! Also, if you want to read up about how to travel with your baby/toddler: click here.

One thing I planned in my suitcase were extra pairs of everything in case he gets wet or dirty and extra warm pants and sweaters (but also thinner ones to layer).

#1: COATS

I was extra worried about the whole coat game! This coat is great, super good quality. If you’re looking for an affordable, legit coat – this is top of the list. Waterproof, layered, warm, windproof aka Vail proof… It was a size 2T which was a little big, but Oliver is also a shrimp. So we ended up switching from his Gap furry coat and this one. His Gap one is out of stock, but here’s different options for you guys! Click on the image for the link.

#2: SNOWBOOTS

These were great! Oliver got one size up…we thought that maybe they would be too big but the boots worked great with socks, snowsuit and layers.

#3: LONG UNDERWEAR

We didn’t bring any and I wish we had! These are from the same website as the coat. They also have some for girls!

#4: NECK GAITER

So, so glad we got one of these for the days up in the mountains, but you wouldn’t believe how hard it is to find! Here’s an adorable one from a trusted brand: The North Face. I couldn’t find ours to link here – it was a genius present from Ollie’s nana and personalized! If I ever do, I will update this. For now, Click here!

#5: SNOWSUIT

Here’s the light weight, waterproof snowsuit that Ollie was wearing! Super great and affordable. Also, here’s some options from Patagonia for younger girls or babies. The website where Ollie’s suit comes from has great options but not a lot of sizes left…

 



#6: FLEECE

Brought this one with us everywhere that has a little colder temp! Love this thing and will always have this in his closet. The blue Patagonia one he has was a gift from Kyle’s cousin at Ollie’s baby shower!!!!



#7: SOCKS & MITTENS & HAT

#8: SUNGLASSES OR GOGGLES

We didn’t have anything to protect his eyes against the snow or wind and if you have some weather it can a little brutal! Thank goodness his auntie saved the day with a genius idea, baby sunglasses! If your kid is going to ski, you’ll also need goggles and a helmet. We haven’t gotten to that point and I’m not sure what to recommend for that…but getting someone to guide you and help you try on helmets to make sure your kid is safe would be my step #1.

That’s it, friends! Those are the main things I was relieved to have with me and put to good use! Other than that, of course, sweaters and long sleeves and all that good stuff. I also recommend bringing sunscreen for you and your LO!!

Hi, I’m Julie.

Here are three things I wish someone told me to prepare before coming home from the hospital with my newborn. I learned this all through lived experiences. ⁠
⁠
👉🏼 Set up a postpartum shelf on wheels with all my healing needs- most is provided by the hospital. Having everything on deck and reachable when needed, especially during exhausting times is very helpful.⁠
⁠
👉🏼 If breastfeeding, the first thing I did is contact a lactation consultant. Every breastfeeding journey is different with each baby and sometimes can be too daunting with do’s and don’t. This gave me direction and a following game plan.⁠
⁠
👉🏼 Take really good care of my nipples and have prepped meals- healthy meals that I froze prior and coconut oil for nipples and nipple shield cups were everything while my skin got used to feeding.
⁠
Do you have anything to add to this list?⁠

I can't look at my rainbow baby ⁠
without thinking of my angel baby. ⁠
⁠
I can't think of my angel baby⁠
without thanking for our rainbow baby. ⁠
⁠
There isn't a world or heaven where a child is replaceable. 💔⁠
⁠
The more I care for Zoë, the more my heart breaks for what happened to my little Blake. Grief of a child is the most awful thing I’ve ever had to go through and that has forever changed me. Holding him, kissing his little nose, birthing him for hours and having to let him go is my biggest heartbreak that keeps on hurting. 

While I get to hold my beautiful rainbow baby, my beautiful miracle, while I observe all of her…her eyes, her nose, life through her expressions and smile…I take it all in but my heart and body can constantly feel the hole of these moments that I’ll never get to have with him. 

To anyone who’s survived such a devastating loss…my heart knows how you feel at night when you close your eyes. My arms are wrapped around you.
