Creating a Comfortable Sleep Environment with Aden + Anais Crib Sheets


Since my children were young we've used Aden + Anais muslin blankets for just about every thing you could think of; swaddling, shade, nursing cover, blanket, changing mat, burp cloth, play mat,etc. The lightweight and soft, smooth fabric is something that my children fell in love with. They took to their Aden + Anais blankets as one would a lovey (which Aden + Anais carries now!).
So when we started to look for bedding for my daughter's new toddler bed, I was excited to see that Aden + Anais also had a line of crib sheets as well, including an organic option. And they fit our criteria of breathable, cotton, and cute!


Not only are the Aden + Anais line of crib sheets comfortable, they are cute to! With patterns and styles to match their other products, there is sure to be a crib sheet that matches your nursery or toddler room.

We enjoy showing off my daughter's love of pink and nature and went with a cute owl pattern with the For the Birds crib sheet.

Since it's been so hot lately we've simply stripped her bed down to the sheet and a muslin blanket for nap and night time. Makes for a much more comfortable night when she's not going to bed with a heavy mattress and thick cotton sheets.


She loves snuggling up with her "burrs" and stuffed animals. And they go perfectly with our Forest Friends wall decals.

By creating a comfortable sleep environment, we've had much better luck in keeping our daughter in her bed as opposed to waking up multiple times a night. She's so comfy that we hardly hear a peep! And with the heat we've had, it's amazing that she isn't waking up more often. Our daughter is quite the little heater and sweats a LOT when she sleeps!

And since she chose the pattern on her sheets, she loves sleeping on them even more! 


If you are looking for the perfect shower gift other than the perfect crib sheet, I highly suggest checking out the amazing selection of products Aden + Anais offers. Some of our favorites include:

You cannot go wrong gifting an Aden + Anais product to your favorite mum- or dad-to-be!


There are many places to purchase Aden + Anais products, including on their website. You can also find a local store that carries their products by using the website's store locator.

Your little one is sure to fall in love with Aden + Anais just as mine have!

Dreaming in Style with @Wayfair


Isn't this a sign that all is right with the world?

My adorable toddler spending her first nap in her new toddler bed from Wayfair. When we first started talking about putting my son and daughter in the same room together there was much discussion about if we should purchase another twin bed or go with a toddler bed.

We purchased a twin with my son but there was also only one bed in the room. And when we weighed all of our options we decided that a toddler bed would be best for our daughter and the space we had. Adding another twin bed into the room would be too crowding. Plus my husband has had his heart set on a bunk bed for when they are old enough.


When shopping for beds we came across a great home goods site called Wayfair. They seriously have just about anything you'd need for your home and more. They even have a whole home improvement session that we will be taking full advantage of soon!

As I perused the site I looked for beds that were similar in style to my son's twin bed. I found the perfect one, a Dream on Me Contemporary Design bed.Within two days of ordering our bed it arrived and we were ready to get started!


Silly me thought I would be able to build the bed myself but once I got all of the pieces out I realized that some of the holes were not pre-drilled so I laid everything out and waited for my dear husband to get home. I didn't want to be responsible for breaking the bed before my daughter even got to use it.


Father and daughter put the bed together side by side. I'm always in awe when I watch my husband interact with my kids. He is so kind and patient when teaching them. Just as he did when my son's bed came home, he let her screw in a few screws, hold his tools, and play with the various parts.


She's now quite handy with an allen wrench. I'm so glad my children are picking up on all of these great skills! Maybe she'll be able to change a tire and the oil the next time my husband's out of town.

The bed was very easy for him to put together. And while I would have loved for it to come pre-drilled for the screws, we were able to assemble it in less than 1/2 an hour. 


After some complaining from my husband about the fact that the long part of the bed was two pieces that had to be screwed together and that the bed didn't seem as sturdy as he thought it should, we were done. And he realized that the bed was perfect. It not only upholds well to my daughter and son playing on it but I can even fit on it too (but not very comfortably!).


I absolutely love how it looks in the room and cannot wait to show off the final toddler bedroom makeover pictures when we're done putting the finishing touches on the room. We still have to buy some replacement blinds for the ones our kids painted, and find some good window treatments, but I can happily say that we are almost done with this project!


Wayfair has been great to work with. Their selection is expansive, shipping was quick, and their prices are very competitive.  I'm already making a list of everything I want to order from them for Christmas! How easy will it be if I can just purchase everything from one site and have it shipped to the recipients?

Definitely check out their Facebook page to keep up with new products, specials, discounts and more! 

And that's not all!


Wayfair has been kind enough to offer one lucky winner a Dream on Me toddler bed of their own (the very same one we have!) in the Noise Girls' Around The House giveaway event.

The giveaway event will be held from June 25th to July 16th and will include multiple packages valued at over $3,500! Make sure to head back and enter to WIN one of these amazing prize packages.
