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

“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 clichΓ©, 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

One of our favorite thrift stores moved, so come with us to check out the new space! πŸ›οΈ Some of the prices were AMAZING, and others had me wondering what happened there πŸ˜‚

Has anyone else noticed thrift stores raising their prices based on what things are selling for online? I’m curious if it’s just me or if you’ve noticed it too!

A little reading update πŸ“šβ˜•οΈ

⭐️ The Calamity Club by Kathryn Stockett was SO good on audio. Five stars from me!

πŸ’• I was reading Happy Place by Emily Henry, but I just wasn’t getting into it, so I set it aside.

πŸ“– Then I picked up The Night We Lost Him by Laura Dave and flew through it! I really enjoyed this one.

Now I need YOUR help deciding what to read next! πŸ‘€πŸ“š

✨ Option 1: A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas β€” fantasy/romantasy πŸ§šβ€β™€οΈ

✨ Option 2: Conform by Ariel Sullivan β€” dystopian πŸ“–

Thanks to @bradylockerby for putting Conform on my radar!

πŸ‘‡ HELP ME CHOOSE! If you could only pick ONE, which would you tell me to read next β€” A Court of Mist and Fury or Conform? And convince me in the comments WITHOUT spoilers! πŸ‘€ I want to know which one will have me staying up way too late turning pages!

Some nights, our family dinner table is the car! πŸ˜‚πŸ” Between hockey, ballet, gymnastics, swim and all the after-school activities, this time of year gets BUSY. I still love finding little moments for us to sit together, catch up and enjoy dinner, even if we’re squeezing it in between stops.

And tonight is extra special because our local @awrestaurants is giving back with a school fundraiser! ❀️ A good dinner, time together and supporting our community, too.
