A Zero Plans Weekend

January 25, 2016January 28, 2016 - Sarah 5 Comments
Coloring like artists on a zero plans weekend.

Don’t get me wrong, I love having plans and fun things lined up to do on the weekend, but I absolutely cherish a plan-free weekend when it comes around. That is exactly what happened this past weekend… zero plans. My husband played in a hockey tournament in town so Evelyn and I got to hang out,Read more

Christmas Madness & Magic

Christmas Eve ended up being pretty rough for Evelyn. We were traveling and hoped she’d fall asleep in the car, but of course that did not happen. By the time we got to the party, she was already a bit cranky and it didn’t help that she was fighting a cold and teething! She ended up gettingRead more

18 Months of Evelyn

December 18, 2015January 8, 2016 - Sarah 1 Comment

“Time flies.” “They grow up so fast.” “They’ll be off to college before you know it.” These are all typical sayings you hear as a new mom and while they are totally cliché, they are 100% true! While Evelyn is not quite ready for college at 18 months old, she is growing fast and IRead more

Dear Santa: Toddler Toy List

December 8, 2015December 13, 2018 - Sarah 8 Comments

Last year, was Evelyn’s first Christmas but she was only 6 months old, so opening gifts for her was really for mom and dad’s enjoyment and not so much for hers. This year, she’s 18 months old and I cannot wait to see her open her gifts as she is just old enough to get excitedRead more

Toddler Trick: Lock Features on your iPad

December 4, 2015January 8, 2016 - Sarah 4 Comments

If you have a toddler who uses your iPad you definitely need to know this trick! I have an iPad Mini with a few toddler apps and videos on it for Evelyn. She immediately fell in love with the Home button which would subsequently take her out of the app causing a temper tantrum because her gameRead more

And yes it’s true. These baking sheets are incredible. I’ve tested them side by side with other pans and the difference is real. Cookies bake more evenly, slide right off, and cleanup is effortless. I truly can’t say enough good things. I love my cookware and bakeware so much.

Next on my wish list the double burner griddle and round cake pan 👀

What’s on your list?

I bought two plain cakes and decided to trust the vision… and somehow a whole little fairy garden came to life 🧚✨

Nothing fancy, just sprinkles, shimmer, and a little imagination. Watching it all come together made it feel even more special than ordering one.

Would you ever try decorating your own birthday cake, or are you team “leave it to the pros”? 🌸

Happy birthday to my sweet Olivia Jay 🌈

Happy birthday to my sweet Olivia Jay 🌈

My rainbow baby, such a special part of our family. You love dancing, your baby doll Mandy (never forget Mandy 💕), and relaxing with your thumb and a little hair twirl. Your favorite color changes by the hour, but your love for French fries? That’s forever 🍟

You can craft with me for hours and never want to stop, and you are fearless in everything you try - swim, gymnastics, ballet… you jump right in with that brave little heart of yours.

Everywhere you go, you light up the room. You ask everyone their name, introduce yourself, and somehow leave every store with a new friend. You love your Disney princesses, baby dolls, Barbies, dresses, and all the fancy shoes.

You tell me you’re a big girl now… but sweet girl, you will always be my baby.

We love you more than words could ever hold. 💖

I thrifted this box before vacation… and I have ZERO memory of what’s inside 😅

All I remember is it felt heavy, breakable… and apparently I was already in a Christmas state of mind 🎄

Is it too early to thrift Christmas… or is this actually genius?? 😂

This could be the best haul or a full “what was I thinking” moment. Let’s find out together 👀

Don’t worry about the ones who aren’t happy for you…
some people are still searching for that within themselves. 🌊

For YEARS I’ve tried everything to keep birds from turning my patio into their personal bathroom… a fan running nonstop, fake snakes, dinosaurs (yes 😂), all the flashy things… NOTHING worked.

But I think I finally found the solution 🙌🏼

My dad used this owl all last summer and swears by it — no more mess on his black Adirondack chairs by the fire pit. So I’m giving it a shot! Right now she’s just sitting on my chair (temporary placement lol), but I’m adding a stake and moving her into the landscaping ASAP.

And let me tell you… I had JUST put my cushions out and they were already covered in poop 😩

I’m already planning to grab another one for the front yard because apparently my driveway + basketball hoop is also prime bird real estate 🫠

You don’t understand how excited I am about this 😂 If this works, it’s a GAME CHANGER.

Comment “BIRD” or “OWL” and I’ll send you the details 🦉✨
