Tanner was sleeping on the world's most uncomfortable couch and I felt so bad hahah. bring them a blanket and a pillow and some snacks too. they're going through it with you ❤️ my bag is from BEIS weekender! make sure to use code LOBEESTON15 for 15% off :,) ## More from Lo Beeston [ ![My Hospital Bag Essentials: What I'm Packing for Baby Cherry's Arrival (and What I Learned from Stella & Ozzy!)](https://d2xsxph8kpxj0f.cloudfront.net/310519663356698318/Z2xfZkR73D94no7hEnVkEW/instagram/lobeeston/1771518585857-rcb0o3.jpg) Self Care ### My Hospital Bag Essentials: What I'm Packing for Baby Cherry's Arrival (and What I Learned from Stella & Ozzy!) Okay, you guys, it's almost time!! Baby Cherry is gonna be here any day now and I'm officially in full nesting mode, which means the hospital bag is PACKED.

Okay, you guys know I keep it real, and today I just HAD to spill the beans on something that's been a total game-changer for my crazy mom life. We're talking about shoes here, but not just any shoes – these are the ones that are saving my sanity and making getting out the door just a little bit easier. No more wrestling with laces or trying to balance a baby while putting on my shoes, thank goodness! :,) Lo Beeston · February 15, 2026 ](/article/skechers-hands-free-slip-ins-mom-life-secret-weapon)[ ![Our Sweet Cherry's First Big Adventure: Hawaii with a Newborn!](https://d2xsxph8kpxj0f.cloudfront.net/310519663356698318/Z2xfZkR73D94no7hEnVkEW/instagram/lobeeston/1771518584877-8783be.jpg) Travel ### Our Sweet Cherry's First Big Adventure: Hawaii with a Newborn! Okay you guys, Cherry's first trip to Hawaii was everything and more. I was a little nervous traveling with a newborn, ngl, but seeing her little face light up (or just sleep peacefully, hahah) made it all worth it. It felt like a dream, and I'm still pinching myself.
