Holiday

This is probably my favorite age group to put gift guides together for — most likely because Piper is now almost 3 1/2 and so fun to shop for! You can check out gifts for babies 0-12 months here and for kids 12-24 months here! The only thing missing from this guide is BOOKS!! I […]

Continuing our holiday gift guide with fun options for the pre- toddler phase! Those little babies aren’t so little anymore but they aren’t quite in full-on toddler mode just yet! Here are some of our favorites — and you can check out gifts for babies 0-12 months here and kids 2-4 here! And all our […]

Gift guide season is HERE! I live for putting together these gift guides. While it takes many hours and lots of cups of coffee they are so fun for me to work on….and to kick things off we are starting with the little babies! And you can click right on over here for Gifts for […]

  Ready or not, holiday shopping season is upon us. And I’m definietly not one that is organized when it comes to checking gifts off my list – I’m usually in a last minute scramble to get everything done. So this year I polled the Mama Notes Community for some tips on how to be […]

Easy, fun and cute holiday recipes to try with your toddlers this holiday!

My final official gift guide is more like a personal wish list :) Gifts perfect for a new or expecting mama this holiday season! I’ll be back with stocking stuffers + last minute Amazon gifts a little closer to Christmas. Happy weekend and Happy December! 

When given the option I’ll always opt to shop by myself — but with our schedule I often don’t have a choice and have to get shopping and errands done with Piper. In the past two years I’ve learned a lot of tricks and ways to make it as less stressful as possible.

If you follow me on Instagram you’ve seen me slowly working away on our DIY advent calendar the past month — and it’s finally done, the bags are stuffed and ready for Piper!

This may be my favorite gift guide yet, girlfriends are just fun to shop for, really because it’s like shopping for yourself!

And… here’s my final kid & baby gift guide! This one was particularly fun since it’s for Piper’s age group :) You can see all of the other kid & baby gift guides for 2017 here and don’t forget to check the Holiday Shop as it’s updated nearly every day

This holiday season since Piper is a little older and more aware of things we’ve started a few new holiday traditions that I hope to carry on each year and I’m really excited about the new traditions I’m making for Austin & I too!

I can’t believe Thanksgiving is THIS week! For many of you next weekend means breaking out the holiday decor and when I asked on Instagram what kind of holiday content you wanted to see this year so many people said affordable decor. So, I’ve searched high & low and am sharing my favorite picks today. […]
