It’s definitely an odd time to be in your 3rd trimester of pregnancy, living through a pandemic and quarantine at home. After working on the nursery over the weekend, figuring out some baby names I love and scouring Amazon for baby clothes, I have to admit I finally just got really excited about giving birth. […]

I’ve been making these muffins just about every week for a year now. My daughter, Flora has severe food allergies and we’ve been de-sensitizing her to milk so she has to have it in a baked form as much as possible. This recipe was one of the first things we started baking for her and […]

Day #2345345 of cooking quarantine diner for the family and I am in a major rut. So I sat down and spent a solid hour browsing Pinterest and my cookbooks for ideas over the weekend and I came up with a big list of meals I can make that will feed my family. I also […]

I know I’m not the only one with a ton of plastic Easter eggs hanging around right now! I’ve gathered up all the toddler activities we’ve tried with plastic Easter eggs so far along with some new ones. I plan on keeping a basket of these eggs out after Easter to use over the next […]

Times are tough right now. Maybe you never scooped up your Easter basket fillers before being quarantined or you’re trying to limit your spending right now. I fall into both boats and when putting together my girl’s baskets realized I needed a few more items but decided to challenge myself to make them with what […]

Navigating postpartum is tricky, I will say it’s easier the second time around but it still presents both physical and mental challenges along with exhaustion. There’s nothing quite like going through it the first time though and I found having some supplies on hand made the experience easier for me. I’ve updated my list to […]

I made these on a whim the other day when the girls were resistant to wanting to go for a stroller ride – and this pregnant mama needs her daily steps outside. Piper (4.5) and Flora (2) both had a lot of fun with this! I used a clipboard for each girl which they love. […]

We are really getting into a long-term routine this week, it will be our first week with Piper’s distance learning program in place. We will be meeting with her class 2x and basically be doing her assignments combined with the meetings from 9:30-12pm every day. I’m learning how to adjust my work expectations and figure […]

Both of my toddlers (ages 2 and 4.5) are really into using scissors and cutting right now, the younger one more so because it’s a newer skill she’s developed. I’ve been running out of creative ideas for practicing but came up with this a few weeks ago and it was a big it! I will […]

Last weekend I finally started getting out all of our baby gear to prep and clean for baby #3! Luckily we saved so much of it that I don’t have too much to purchase and I wanted to share it all with you in one place. There are a few new items on my wish […]

I’ve been feeling overwhelmed as my due date becomes closer and closer — not to mention everything I want to accomplish before the holidays begin (shopping, decorating etc.)! The other night I took a few minutes to write out a big, long to-do list and felt so much better after doing so.
