Kid projects
Not really sure what’s going to happen with trick or treating this year, but the girls still really wanted to make our Teal Pumpkin Project pumpkins to help raise awareness about food allergies and how to include EVERYone during the holidays! We have two daughters with Celiac, and this is a project that is close […]

FINALLY got to see our family this weekend, and since it’s been so long, I thought I’d make it just a little bit extra. 😉 Grabbed some inexpensive sleeping bags [HERE], a princess tent under $40 [HERE] and some twinkle lights [HERE], and the cousin and sister slumber party was ready to go! Things are […]

We moved into this house when I was very pregnant with our third daughter, and one of the main reasons was to give each girl a room of her own. Fast forward to adding a fourth daughter to the family, and now all four would rather share a room for nightly sister sleepovers! While I […]

Since we are all staying home more and more these days, I’m trying to find creative ways to make our space interesting, fun and cozy for the kiddos. They currently share a bunk room, and I thought adding a simple reading nook for kids in one corner could be a sweet little spot for snuggles […]

My four little women love to look through Pinterest with me and choose crafts for us to do together. A few weeks ago, they chose a DIY felt flower mobile! The photo inspo they chose were a little advanced for little hands, so we simplified the DIY felt flower mobile to be a bit more […]

Have you been listening to “Into the Unknown” on repeat since November in your house, too? The girls are into it in a big way, and since two of them have winter birthdays and chose to have an experience over a gift/party this year, we thought it would be fun to do a sister slumber […]

When you have a kiddo with a food allergy, holidays big and small can be a bit tricky when it comes to the steady flow of treats and sweets that accompany the celebratory fun. Two of our girls have Celiac, so we have learned to think outside the sweet box when it comes to little […]

My girls love to scroll through Pinterest with me to get craft and DIY ideas, and you know what? For as long as they think it is the BEST THING EVER to do projects with Mom, I’m gonna make those projects happen! Love doing things with my girlies. Today they made the cutest heart “balloons” […]

One of my very favorite family traditions we’ve done over the years is my daughters’ Valentine’s Day date with their Daddy! It’s so special to me to see how Russell treats his girls with such love and tenderness, and he is most definitely their hero and favorite boy. ❤️ I also love that they’ve grown […]

It’s that time of year. The sunlight is gone before you know it, it’s freezing outside…and the children still have the energy level of a hamster in a wheel. 😳 I needed a few new ideas to help them get their winter wiggles out, so I polled my buddies on Instagram to help me get […]

So I’ve seen these salt dough ornaments for as long as I can remember, but I’ve never tried making them with the girls! Thought it would be fun to redecorate their playroom for fall just a little bit, so we tackled the project together today! Because two of my daughters have Celiac, even touching gluten […]

Confession: letting my kids “help” in the kitchen is NOT my favorite thing to do. Like, at all. The mess, the chaos, the questions…GAH! Mommy’s brains hurt afterward, but dadgum if their little hearts aren’t full, too. So. I’m trying to be better about saying yes when they ask to help me cook or bake, […]
