New mamas need all the help they can get, am I right? Whether you're looking for a gift for a "seasoned" mama or one who is welcoming a little one for the first time, I'm here to share with you what I like to call the "unsung hero gift ideas" for new mamas and their babies!

These are gifts that a new mama really needs - or at the very least a gift that she won't get a million of (I'm lookin' at you, baby socks)!

Bunny Baskets for The Little Babes

---

Easter is just a few days away and in true Noelle fashion I *ahem* just finished getting the kid's baskets together. It's Sienna's first Easter so I may have went overboard with all the cute girly things and for the boys, I really wanted to get things they'll need/want for the warm weather! 

I know I'm sharing this a smidge late but I'm 99.9% sure everything listed in still available either on Amazon or drive-up through Target.

Saturday Morning Bunny Breakfast

---

This morning, Ant had to work so I decided to live out all my Pinterest dreams and create a (super simple) bunny breakfast for the little babes. I say super simple because besides the bacon, I didn't cook anything else. The pancakes? Pre-made and warmed in the microwave! You can do the same with frozen waffles or even french toast. Follow me for more recipes! 😆

Seriously, though, this is genius. I'm going to do this way more often, especially for holidays. The boys got so excited for the plates and the food cut into a bunny's butt. Honestly, it's what they normally would eat but just presented in a fun way. Usually, the boys will have a pancake or two each and call it a morning. Which, when you think about it, makes sense!

BUNNY BREAKFAST MUST-HAVES:

• cute bunny plates + napkins (these were each a $1 a pack in Target's dollar area)
• bacon (okay, I lied. I microwaved these too but it's because they taste better like that 😂)
• pancakes, waffles, french toast, toast, eggs
• raspberries, bananas, strawberries, blueberries, kiwi

And that's it! Easy-peasy. Basically, you're taking what you make for breakfast already and just popping it on a cute plate. #easyparentingwin (and I'll take what I can get)!

How To Make a Leprechaun Trap

---

T-minus two days until St. Patrick's Day! Guys, we've had some weird stuff going on in the house. Shamrocks are showing up everywhere. Toilets are green. The boys are convinced a leprechaun has been pranking us this past week and we need to make a trap to catch it!

Here I am, thinking we can Pinterest this thang up - but the boys had other plans. In fact, they had complete creative control over the whole thing! Although, I did try to jazz it up...just a smidge...but they veto'd just about everything:

"The pom poms need gold in them."

"Wait. That's way too many pom poms." 

"We don't need decorations on it." 

😭

The Yummiest Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins You've Ever Had!

---

Banana muffins are always a crowd pleaser over here - even for my oldest and he doesn't even like bananas! We always seem to have a few bananas hanging around that are getting a little too ripe but don't toss them just yet. Those are the best kind for a killer banana muffin. In fact, the riper (is that a word?), the better (and sweeter). These are also awesome in a mini version for BLW!
