finding beauty, confidence, and rest in motherhood
First, would you look at that fence?!? Dominic is making so much headway! This week, I suspect, I’ll be able to open the back door and let the kids run free without worry that they’ll take off on a too far away adventure :) Now, on to this fabulous little number from Old Navy! I […]
I told these sweet little goons that my greatest wish for Mother’s Day was to have them give me real smiles in a photo of just them and I. And they did just that!!! I love how their personalities shine through. Jemma with her endless joy, Max’s surprise silliness, followed by Reid mimicking his own […]
With little ones it’s not always easy to have a relaxing Mother’s Day, so, instead of longing for a spa day or time alone, I’ve given up the idea of peace and quiet and most years opt for fun and adventure! This year, we’re taking the ferry to the San Juan Islands and I can’t […]
Today’s post is sponsored by Prana Brush. All thoughts and opinions are my own. You know me, I’m always on the lookout for the latest and greatest. And, when I find something new that I love, I’m here to share about it! Sooooo, have you heard about dry brushing? Probably a year ago, Jem and […]
Holler friends! Happy spring! We have six weeks left of our school year and I confess, I’m counting down the days. We have so much fun coming this summer and I’m ready for the SUNSHINE. We’ve got some major house projects in the works too. I know, I know … the never-ending story around here. […]
Easter is just a week or so away which means us mamas need to pull together treasures and treats for Easter baskets! I’ve been collecting things over the last while and recently locked myself in my closet to sort it all out. Do you do this too? I mocked up each basket to make sure […]
I recently stumbled upon a fabulous “challenge” of sorts on Instagram — the 150 Hours Outside Project. This sort of thing is totally up my alley and I immediately clicked through the hashtag to learn more. #150hoursoutside was started by Leah McDermott of Your Natural Learner. All the details are here <<< read it :) Bottom line though, get outside more with your kids this […]
Today’s post is in partnership with American Girl, one of our very favorite brands! Friends, the end of January has arrived! How?!? Thirty one days checked off and us all well into 2019! So much about January makes it one of my very favorite months of the year and Jemma agrees … especially because the new year always means a […]
Reid turned three recently and for awhile now, I’ve thought he has been ready to make the transition from diapers to handsome little boy unders. But, he hasn’t really asked. And, on my end, I haven’t really felt much worry about pressing it. All over the internet you’ll find articles about the best time to […]
Doing — some work on toilets. Well, at least I thought it was going to take some work. But it didn’t. I decided to forgo my normal natural cleaning method and put this Scrubbing Bubbles stuff to work. Ya’ll I didn’t even have to scrub! Literally squirted, left it, and flushed 30 minutes later … […]
Ah. The new year. I love it. This time of year is just the best! One of my favorite traditions each January is to choose a word of the year. For 2019 I actually chose two. But they go together, so, in my mind, it’s one thought. One theme for the coming months. Dominic and I recently […]
