Still not over this bright liner. The color combo is giving subtle Barney vibes with a side of Hulk and Reptar. 👾🦖

Creativity for me is like this little feeling inside that bubbles up until I am eventually able to let it out. “if time stood still” was my first solo creative outpouring since I became a mother and it filled my heart in such a unique way. That creative feeling is coming back to me again and watching this video reminds me that I have so much more to explore and create. I’m thankful that this beautiful moment was captured on camera and I can’t wait to do it again soon. ✨

Now that Xyla is close to walking, we’re always looking for more ways to keep her active while learning. I love that the Laugh & Learn 3-in-1 Smart Car can grow with her as she gets older. Plus, it interacts with her Laugh & Learn Smart Learning Home. Check out our playtime featuring two of her new Fisher-Price toys!

My daughter Xyla will be a toddler soon (so crazy!) and I’ve been looking around for new and nutritious options to help support her learning and development. Not only will Toddler Nutritional Drinks from the maker of Enfamil be a great complement to Xyla’s balanced diet when she becomes a toddler, it also has Omega-3 DHA and iron to help support brain development - nutrients which regular cow’s milk doesn’t have. I’m excited for Xyla to give this a try when she turns 1!
