It’s hard to believe that this time last year I was extremely pregnant, waiting on our loft to be turned into Sage’s room, and at the start of what I thought would be a week of social distancing. If only I knew then what I know now. I still remember putting the kids’ baskets together […]

I am that mom that gets very into valentines every year. It’s a tad bit ridiculous, but I can’t help it. I still remember my excitement making my valentine’s day box as a kid. My thrill for this holiday has lasted, and as an adult, I love getting creative with all of the puns and […]

It’s strange not seeing anyone and barely going anywhere besides the doctor’s office and the Target parking lot […]

Happy March, friends!! I’ve never been big on celebrating St. Patrick’s Day, but I do enjoy having corned beef and cabbage the day of and of course, a handful or two of Lucky Charms. But with the kids, it’s been fun to do special things for each holiday. Last year, we made these Lucky Charm […]

My kids seem to have the love bug (hehe!) for crafting, especially this winter. We’ve been getting kind of bored with our toys, so it’s nice to get a creative break a few times a week. We got a lot of crafty things for Christmas, so we’ve been using some of that and Peyton has […]

This February will mark Peyton’s second year participating in a cute Valentine’s Day exchange at her preschool. I still have fond memories of looking forward to my elementary school valentine exchange – filling out cards and giving my best friends and secret crush the best cards in the box. I love that for now all […]
