Oh man. I'm in trouble. This summer has been one of anything BUT a consistent schedule. Bedtimes have ranged from 8pm to almost 10pm for the kids. Random play dates and visits to Costco. Unscheduled meet-ups with friends and...
This is one of my favorite times of the year! Pumpkin patch visiting, hot or frozen cider sipping, leaves falling... all the fall fun! This is a season where I generally do a ton of activities with the kiddos...
Rain, rain, go away... and well you know the rest of that song. We are in the "April showers bring May flowers" weather.
Having kids during the rainy weather can be a pain but maybe we can put a positive...
Someone in your house finishes using the last of the toilet paper and they actually remember to put a new roll out; you are thrilled they didn’t just set it on top. Yeah, it’s great if my husband remembers...
Do you feel like there are SO many ways to do things, SO many things coming at you, SO many expectations internal and external, SO many ways to manage your life, SO many strategies about parenting that you just get...

It never fails, you finally get enough clothes for your child in the appropriate size for the season, and boom - they grow 3 inches overnight and nothing fits....
If you asked any of my close friends to describe me in five words or less, crafty would likely make the top of the list. I make my girls' clothes, headbands, vinyl t-shirts and the majority of our wall decor. I'm...
Your baby only turns one once. That’s what I kept telling myself as I planned and perfected my son’s first birthday bash last November, while my husband kept telling me to rein the party in. His rationale? That our...
It seems like babies eating solid foods should be one of those things that comes easy and naturally, right?
After all, at some point, most of us learn to neatly consume regular food that doesn't come in a puree form....
Are you working from home?
There is a high probability that you are either working from home or doing some form of online communication and/or work. Prior to covid, many of us were already struggling to set boundaries with...
Here it comes, the dry, cold, and boring month of January; cue the January Blues. Unless you have a birthday in January, what is there to look forward to? The yucky white film on the side of your car?...
If you’re like me, you can’t get enough of your friends’ posts that show the month by month growth of their babies. I have seen so many cute blankets and stickers made just for this too. I’m all...
