Lizzie’s favorite new phrase (or should I say phase) is, “I don’t want to.” A typical exchange goes something like this: Me: “Lizzie, please turn off the television. Your movie is over.” Lizzie: “I don’t want to.” Me: “I know you don’t want to, but you must obey me. Too much tv will make you [...]

When you look at this picture you see a preschooler that fell asleep watching Thomas the Train. Me? I see a toy room that took me all day to clean out so that my husband can shampoo the carpets and finally rid the house of the evil smell of cat urine! Now my living room [...]

My friend Kami just started a new photography business called “Orange Peel Photography” and she did our family photographs just recently. My favorite thing about her work is how has this amazing timing and captures emotions in nanoseconds. You can browse her blog to see what I mean! I am going to be posting soon [...]

The blame for this one goes to Josh. I could say “credit,” I mean after all we accomplished a large goal we had been struggling with for a few months. But he didn’t consult me (or the internet for that matter) before filling her little head with thoughts of owning this lovely (and very breakable!) [...]

She is wearing one of my multi-layered white skirts pinned to make a dress, using a vacuum attachment to clean the box and talking on the phone. I love my little girl! Leave a link in my linky! Thanks!

Just today I was sitting down to write another review and giveaway post, but I couldn’t get past how blessed I am. Nine years ago I was a senior in high school and living 35 minutes from home on 20 acres with 2 kids (one on the way) was not how I envisioned my life. [...]

For Lizzie’s party I made a princess castle cake. There were 4 towers – one on each corner – and I made them by dipping ice cream cones in white chocolate. Nothing better!

Honestly, the magical thing about this party was how much Lizzie enjoyed it and that friends and relatives that don’t see her very much were able to celebrate this fun day with her. Poor Lizzie does not like being the center of attention though, so as soon as people started to come and say with [...]

She woke up yesterday morning and first thing she said was, “Daddy, I want to go fishing with you.” It melted his heart and he came straight home from work at 6:30 pm, and they went fishing. They roasted marshmallows, she took things out of his tackle box, they just had fun making memories! She [...]
