I am really excited to share @thelocalmomsnetwork

I am really excited to share @thelocalmomsnetwork new partner and Meet-a-Dad feature this week, Arthur Lih, III, the Inventor and CEO of @life_vac ! I was so intrigued by this interview and by this product..I was sucked in watching all of the tutorial videos and reading testimonies of how this product has saved lives!

@life_vac is a non-powered, non-invasive, portable suction device used to clear an upper airway obstruction that can save someone from choking to death (like one-year-old Killian, pictured). We spoke to Arthur, dad to Jackie (15), about what spurred him to launch this life-saving product, how it works, and why he wants every family to have access to one.

Ok, where are my pouch-loving mamas at??🙋🏼‍♀️ Pouches can be game-changing when it comes to quickly and easily getting fruits and vegetables into your babies. But did you know that @eatcerebelly also includes superfoods like chlorella, squash seeds, algal oil, kelp and maitake mushrooms in their pouches??🤯

I am a stickler when it comes to nutrition for Sailor and I am OBSESSED with Cerebelly. Seriously, I encourage you to read the article on the blog today and check out their site, because you will probably become just as big of a fan as I am!

Teresa, the founder, is a brain surgeon and therefore an expert on brain development. She is also a busy working mom so she just gets it. @thelocalmomsnetwork spoke to Teresa about why the first few years of a child’s life is the perfect time to focus on their nutrition, her nutrition criteria for Cerebelly, and more. Link in bio!

Cerebelly is available at Whole Foods, Target, Wegmans and Kroger stores nationwide, as well as online at cerebelly.com (use code LOCALMOMS35 for 35% off!)

With trick-or-treating being up in the air this ye

With trick-or-treating being up in the air this year, we are all looking for fun festive activities to do with our kids to celebrate the Halloween season🎃

Up on the blog today is a list of Pumpkin Patches throughout (and outside of) LA. Get the details on each at the link in my bio and decide which one will suit your family the best✨

A heads up! From the research I did for this post, it seems that if you are going to visit on the weekend (especially the last two weekends of the month), it would be best to either choose a farm that requires an advanced reservation, or go early in the morning right when they open. Otherwise, it sounds like the lines could be pretty brutal given Covid restrictions. If you can make a trip during the week it sounds like it should be pretty easy no matter which farm you choose.

Happy pumpkin picking!🧡

My antidote to the relentless SoCal fall heat wave

My antidote to the relentless SoCal fall heat waves: pumpkin pie popsicles! Take a pumpkin pie smoothie (recipe below), pour into popsicles molds and freeze!

If you want to be a little extra💁🏼‍♀️ add the “crust” to the top of each mold (a handful of pecans or walnuts pulsed with a few pitted dates in the food processor)

Pumpkin Pie Smoothie:
1 frozen banana
2 spoonfuls canned pumpkin
2 pitted dates
sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice (or cinnamon)
spoonful of almond butter
handful of ice
almond milk
