Summer is our time to slow down and try new things. The new thing this year—life with our fourth boy! More than ever, I am on the hunt for little time savers and ways to simplify. It starts by giving each of the boys as much responsibility as they will take, while having fun too. Making lunch for camp means it is that much tastier. Dressing themselves is liberating. Time and space are precious, so I am extra-focused on buying smartly. I want tried and tested products and am willing to spend a bit more. I turn more than ever to brands that I love, like Peek…word tees, Crewcuts shorts, Bella Bliss layette. I am trying to rid our house of anything too small, broken or simply adding to clutter. Stocking up where it makes sense helps; sunscreen is ready to go in the pool bag, kids bathroom and kitchen. Its about terrific products and little efficiencies to make time for all that we love about summer. SHOP HOLLY'S PICKS >
