Kid projects
This is one of our favorite traditions. Every year around the first day of summer break, I swap out the backpacks and surprise them with some summer celebration mudroom decor! Out with the books and lunch boxes and in with some fresh (and inexpensive) summer toys. It’s always a surprise when I’m going to set […]

We are making progress on the shed-turned-playhouse for the girls, and today we made a few updates: the arrival of some fun cement tiles and vertical shiplap that will be painted pink! The girls wanted to pick the colors, so a few weeks ago I let them choose between a few black and white cement […]

Hi all, and happy almost-Easter! In our home, we try to keep focus on the main reason for certain holidays like Christmas and Easter, but it is also so much fun to participate in the celebratory traditions with our kiddos, too! We haven’t really done much with the Easter Bunny (although somehow Santa is alive […]

Thanks to you guys for sending in ideas over on my Instagram stories last week! I’m a little stumped on how to make over THIS old shed space for the girls to use as their playhouse, so I appreciated the help! I rounded up some of your playhouse design inspiration ideas along with some inspo […]

One of the things the girls were most excited about regarding the new house was this little shed out back. It’s already pink inside, so they thought it was meant to be, ha! Since our home has dedicated office space (and since I usually just sit on my bed to work anyway), we decided this […]

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 […]
