Ok, so maybe your work isn't quite as glamorous as actress Rachel McAdams. But, if you are a new mom returning to work after maternity leave, you know well that the commitment to breastfeeding comes with numerous daily challenges. Thanks to one working mother's own need to provide her babies with her own liquid gold breast milk — that is no longer one of them.

Kate Torgersen created Milk Stork, the first and only breast milk travel solution for working moms. Milk Stork was inspired by all the breastfeeding super moms who work, travel, and love their babies like crazy.

We loved this shop's collection of art prints o much we included them in our holiday pop-up shop last Christmas. If you missed it then let me introduce you to the Kisco Print Shop. What we love is that there's something pretty much for everyone and every room.

In fact she has various pieces in her collection that have become for sale exclusively on another one of our favorite places for wall art, Minted.

We chatted with the mama and founder Colleen Williamson about her start, favorite places she's spotted her prints and asked her some tough questions like, "Is a gallery wall still a thing?". Inquiring minds.

Darling. This was my first thought when I saw the Love Found birth stat prints. They are simply charming and perfection in their minimalist design. The muted neutrals are universal, but with a twist. With the hot trend of black and white not being overlooked so there is a bold black version for those rooms too.

My second thought was, YASS! Now other mom's like me won't have to dig out their baby book to find their child's birth stats. I know so many moms that remember things like time of birth and birth weight clear as day and will NEVER forget – and then there's me. #momfail.

When it comes to nursery room design this is the new "it" décor piece to include as the perfect way to add a very, very personal touch. Watch for it to pop-up all over those WOW-worthy baby rooms on Instagram.

Part blankie part BFF the super plush creatures that make up the Slumberkins crew can be described in one word, irresistible. Their cozy fur bodies and friendly faces say, “pick me up and never let me go.” But there’s more to them than just their charming good looks.

As part of the co-founders desire to bring comfort to babies and little ones all over the world, they also wanted to encourage reading. Reading with a focused on helping parents broach sometimes sensitive discussions or emotional topics for little ones. Which makes them just the perfect baby gift.

We recently caught up with the co-founders Callie and Kelly on all things Slumberkins.

One of the top trends for nursery and kids' rooms over the past couple years has been statement wallpaper and wall murals. If you've been looking for just the right look, chances are you've come across Anewall's rich and inspiring designs. If you haven't... oooh girl, you're in for a treat!

The decidedly vintage and travel inspired prints in the Anewall collection are so stunning that if you weren't considering incorporating wallpaper in your baby or kid's room, you probably will be after seeing them. The Anewall wall covering's endearing designs feature animals, nature, landscapes, florals and even some modern graphic patterns – while they may exude a hint of vintage, they are anything but antiquated.  And if you aren't completely enamored with one of their luxe designs as-is, you can customize a design's color and measurements.

We caught up with the two ladies behind Anewall (pronounced a–new-wall), to learn about their  inspiration for inspiring others.

As parents we look to keep our kiddos healthy. We are concerned about the food that goes in their bodies; the clothes they wear on their back; the shampoos that wash their hair. So don't forget the place where their entire bodies rest for 8-14 hours – their mattress.

We are super fans of investing in a quality mattress for both the crib and their big kid bed. Not only do you need to select the proper firmness for each stage there is also the decision to make about the functionality in terms of bed wetting. And finally lets talk about the health and safety benefits of that mattress.

To do this topic justice we catch up with our friends at Naturepedic, producers of luxury organic mattress for the entire family. Learn what safe, healthy sleeping really means.

Opposites attract it is!

Personally, I initially gravitate towards neutrals, tone-on-tone and muted colors. I also tend to design nurseries and kids' rooms with soothing, sophisticated palettes and styles. So when someone introduced me to Julie Howard's work and her company Shop Leo Designs, I surprised myself when I fell in love with the her handcrafted, wall decor goodies. (Seriously, there were some audible gushes from my lips as I was looked through her cheerful color combos.) Julie's whimsical decor pieces are created in bursts of brights and even neon colors, possibly with a few neutrals thrown in for good measure.

Take a look at some of her most popular works below and then start following her on Instagram for a dose of happy in your everyday. Just remember we're her newest, biggest fans!
