Top 10 from 2015

Today I'm so excited share with you my 10 most popular blog posts from 2015. Looking back at this past year, it's easy to see a theme in my most popular posts: BABIES and ORGANIZATION! What a coincidence. Two of my favorite things in the whole world. . . 

Ready to get started? Here we go!

NUMBER 10: Mix it up with printable kitchen wall art

These funky, easy printables still make me smile every time I look at them. My guests always comment on them, too. 

NUMBER 9: Breast Milk Freezer Storage from a Soda Can Box

This project was inexpensive and easy. It's still in great shape a year later, and I love seeing that bright pop of color when I open the freezer door. 

NUMBER 8: Brilliant gift ideas for a toddler: Part 1 of 3

This series isn't finished, but everyone loved part 1! If you've ever bought a present for a one-year-old, and wished you could come up with something more creative than a toy, then you definitely want to check this one out. 

NUMBER 7: Reorganizing Emma’s Nursery after 7 months: 15 Nursery Organization Tips I’ve Learned From Experience

I remember the day well. We had just returned home from vacation, where Emma had just started crawling around a little bit. I was supposed to be unpacking her suitcase. and I looked around her nursery and thought to myself, "This doesn't really work anymore." So instead of unpacking, I rearranged and reorganized everything. . . and then I shared my insights on the blog.  

NUMBER 6: What I Keep in my Organized Diaper Caddy

A little basket with adorable little pockets for tiny little baby things? Of course I love it! Here's how I keep my diaper caddy organized for an efficient diaper-changing process, day or night. 

NUMBER 5: Organizing a Schedule and Routine for your Baby

A schedule for a baby? Tricky, tricky business! Here's one tool I use to try to organize something that's really, really hard to organize. :) 

NUMBER 4: How to make inexpensive, customized thank you cards (plus a free printable)

If you have a camera and a printer, then you can make adorable thank you cards "from" your baby. Emma got a lot of Christmas presents, so I think I'll revisit this strategy this week. Especially for the people who didn't actually get to see her opening their presents, a picture of her playing with the gift can be really special. 

NUMBER 3: A perfectly packed daycare bag

{Spoiler alert} My 3 most popular posts of 2015 were all from my perfectly packed series. Basically, I dumped out the contents of the bags that I send with Emma to daycare, photographed the contents, and created a free printable checklist of everything to include in each bag. Because if you're a busy mama like I am, you don't have time to worry about whether you're forgetting something as you rush out the door in the morning. 

NUMBER 2. A perfectly packed pumping bag

If you pump at work, first of all: you rock. Keep up the good work! In this post, I shared the contents of my pumping bag, as well as a printable checklist of pumping necessities. 

And the most popular post of 2015 was:

NUMBER 1. A perfectly packed diaper bag

This one was tricky, I'll admit. There are approximately 700 things you could pack in your diaper bag. But a few months ago, I narrowed it down to the basics, photographed the contents of my own bag, and of course, created a printable checklist for mamas on-the-go.

And there you have it: the 10 most popular posts of 2015. I have lots more in store for 2016, and I can't wait to share it all with you. Happy New Year!!
