A few weeks ago, our kids got some awesome sensory kits as a favor at a friend's birthday party - and our kids quickly grew obsessed with them!

Home Updates: Living + Dining Room

Harper and I spent some mommy/daughter time together on ...

Sunday we put up curtains in Harper's room and Candice came over and we went and had our nails done which was much-needed as I hadn't had a pedicure since before Christmas (insert alarmed-face emoji here). Here's what else we're up to...O N E We are in ...

The holidays are a perfect time to try something new that can be enjoyed for years to come! One thing we're doing during the month of December is to have a special holiday breakfast once every weekend through Christmas. Harper ...
Fun (DIY) Toddler Halloween Activities
If I'm being honest, my favorite thing about Halloween is candy. Everywhere. In massive bulk packages and in bowls on people's desks for the entire month of October. And don't even get me started on Pumpkin Spice Lattes. Yes. Yes to all of that goodness.Since I don't want my toddler as hopped up on sugar as I am the entire month, I try to ...
DIY Easter Egg Bunnies
Easter is just around the corner and I'm getting Harper's Easter basket all ready to go! This year, I thought I would get a little crafty and make some of the "eggs" in her basket little bunnies!I saw some similar crafts on Pinterest and decided to adapt it based on the crafting supplies I already had at home. I ended up creating a bunny hiding ...
