I love living where we have 4 seasons, but I’m not always ready for them to go and change on me! I feel like we got no where near enough snow this Winter. Luckily, towards the end we had a nice storm and the kids got ttheir sledding in. I think one of the most [...]
He may be a big pain but he is a very handsome old pain and he looks good on the brown couches!
John just bought us a new camera lens and he used it to get the best pictures we have of our dog Reuben! I am excited to see if I can get some nice [...]
Vat 19 was kind enough to send us a slush mug to review AND one to give away! I had high hopes for the slush mug and luckily I wasn’t disappointed at all. We have been enjoying frozen treats for over a week now with no complaints. The inner core goes in the freezer for [...]
We finally got our BIG SNOW, the first real satisfying storm of the season! YAY! Ethan was the first one out there, he rushed to get his gear on and go. He was very smiley and kept scooping up armfuls tossing it into the air above him.
Ben was the last one to come in, he [...]
I can’t help but rub the “teddy bellies” when my girls wear their Chipoupine sweaters, they are so super soft and irresistible! I like so much about these sweaters that I made a list:
They are soooo soft and thick that you have to snuggle your kids extra when they wear them.
The fleece is high quality [...]
“Who us?” Here are Reuben and Casey looking oh so innocent after I tried to sneak up on them and snap a picture of their nap! I woke them up and then Jamie moved in for a snuggle with Casey. I’m not a fan of blog rants so I’ll keep this short. Yes they bark [...]
The girls and I got to go to both the boys’ Valentine’s parties on Friday (we lucked out and they were one after the other so we didn’t have to be at 2 places at once!). It was really nice, all the kids were good and cute and the chaos wasn’t too much. I love [...]
Jamie is very into projects lately and SCISSORS! Here are some hearts she has made by cutting out and coloring hearts I traced for her. She also worked with “her boys” to make a collage with some doily hearts and papers that they painted and glued together.
The last project she did was to decorate [...]
I like to save all the broken crayons to make new swirly ones and I have been wanting to make heart ones for the kids for Valentine’s Day (Ethan is going to give them out in his class too). Unfortunately the mold I just bought is meant for heart ice cubes and I don’t think [...]
I have nothing against characters being on Valentines but I don’t like the cheapo little character Valentines from the store and I also don’t like the stress of having my kids do an assembly line of homemade Valentines either. This year I am saving $ and sanity by making my own Valentine’s for our 3 [...]
