Ready, Set…. Almost…

Dishwasher replaced! Socks finished! House clean! Clothes for kids and hubby purchased! Hair and nails done. Really everything around here could not be more ready. Our new plates just came in on our car even.
I have been miserable and grumpy and all over the place since last week, but really even worse this weekend. [...]

A Busy Little Nest

I finished the Nursery! The curtains are hung, and embellished with the owls I cut at Bethany’s, and sewed together to hang. The quilt came from Etsy seller and is beautifully hand made. Bethany made the cutest triple canvas set with owls, and Tim has installed a shelf, where the home made owl stuffie sits [...]

Progress

I finished making the owls for my little mobile…They look a little awkward here, but when they are hanging they look so cute. I have to now attach them to the mobile, and will post another pic then. I am loving this little theme.

The Hunt Continues

I still don’t have a name. Some new ones we are considering are Cullen, Carson, Griffin, and My Husband’s Favorite Maximilian. Problem with that one is my Best Friend just had a baby a few months ago, and named him Maxwell. 2 max’s is just a little too copy cat for me, so I nixed [...]

That’s it, it’s time to super nanny on their hineys

Problem: Aiden has gone off schedule, at night. putting him down for bed, he wouldn’t stay in bed. He kept getting up and turning on the light and playing with toys.
Solution: Room switch. His old room (biggest room) now playroom. His new room is the old playroom. No toys, just bed, dresser, monkeys, blankets and [...]

Easter

Easter is one of those holidays for me, that I get confused on what to give the kids. I don’t want to focus too much on the gifts, and I certainly don’t want candy monsters. We decided the safest bet (besides the candy and traditional eggs) is books. We usually do an outfit, but that [...]
