Laundry! We're grown ups!
We moved into our new apartment about two weeks ago (I'd love to share more photos once we finish unpacking and painting), and the new place has two things we've never had before: outdoor space (a small balcony off the living room) and...a WASHER AND DRYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's the first washer and dryer Alex and I have had in our adult lives (and we're old), and I cannot tell you how happy we are that our dragging-bags-to-the-laundromat days are over.
We turned to (you guessed it)
The Honest Company, one of my beloved long-term sponsors, to try their natural, non-toxic laundry supplies, including
laundry detergent,
non-chlorine bleach,
stain remover and
dryer cloths.
For lingerie and delicates, I washed everything by hand in the sink with
baby shampoo (have you heard that trick?). It's gentle and smells like sweet orange vanilla—
so good.
The laundry scents are very subtle, light and fresh, and the ingredients are all-natural and safe for babies and sensitive skin.
Four-year-old Toby helped me sort the laundry into colors vs. whites; we've been giving him chores lately and he takes them very seriously.
And one-year-old Anton helped by rolling around on the blanket. :)
If you'd like to try Honest, you can see their
cleaning supplies here. We've loved and trusted all of their natural baby, beauty and cleaning products for years and highly recommend them. (Especially their adorable
patterned diapers.) Looking forward to sharing more apartment photos soon. xo

Everlane just came out with three chunky knit sweaters, and the wool is super soft—not itchy the way some wools can be. (I have the crewneck and have been wearing it non-stop!) Inspired by fall, we've paired each of the three styles with a romantic braid...Read More >
