Tonight, after dinner...and more quite possibly after the kidlets go to bed...we are having Toffee Crackers for dessert! This is my super easy recipe for a really yummy chocolatey dessert that looks as if you spent a lot of time in your kitchen making it. Especially when you mention the word "toffee". Here is what you … Continue Reading...
Natural Deodorant
I've been thinking I should do a post about what many of you have been asking me about lately, the natural deodorant I use and make. It's a super simple recipe that smells great and it really works too! You just need a few simple ingredients and this recipe should make enough for 1 person for about 3 months. If you … Continue Reading...
Sometimes Mistakes Are A Good Thing
So, after I made that rockin' sundress for me I just had to make one for little Miss P. I found a great yellow print with the cutest little bees on it and knew Penny had to have a little summer dress too. Even though summer is at it's end, I was thinking ahead and decided to make a really long dress...like down to the … Continue Reading...
Summer = Swings and Sandboxes
Our summer has been so fun! It's sad to think that summer is coming to a close. Here are some pictures of my littles on one of our recent trips to a neighborhood park. We actually were able to entice Noah into swinging in the baby swings with how much fun Penny was having since he usually forgoes them for the "big kid … Continue Reading...
Messy Mornings
I thought I would post some pictures of what our mornings have been looking like lately...well, Penelope's mornings to be exact! She absolutely loves her blueberries and I just had to snap some pictures of how blue this kid really gets. It's a good time, especially the clean up part. Man, I just love the sprayer hose on our … Continue Reading...
Sunny Day, Sweepin’ the Clouds Away…
Woo Hoo! I just put the finishing touches on my latest sewing project...a sundress! I had seen Heather Ross do the child's version on Martha and it seemed simple enough so I tried to make it in a bigger size since even I can't fit into a 2T. I went out and bought her totally rad book, Weekend Sewingandthere are tons of … Continue Reading...
The Fruits of Our Labor
I am just so excited today! The littles and I were out playing in our backyard this afternoon and I happened to take a peek at our garden which I rarely do because as you know gardens seem to take a long time to get the beginnings of their fruits and then an even longer time to ripen those said fruits. Well, I'll just say … Continue Reading...
Birthday Bash!
OK, I'm baaaccck! The party is over, the guests are all gone, my family has left for home (sniffle!) and the decorations are all taken down and put away...well, sort of! And now, I am finally getting to posting some pictures of that big bash we had for little Miss P. It was such a good time. We had lots of our … Continue Reading...
One Year Ago Today…
...at exactly 4:02 pm our little Miss Penelope Joyce was welcomed into this world! Can you believe it's been a whole year? I can't, I know everyone says this but it's just so true...time flies! She has been out of my belly for 365 crazy days...it's just amazing. Penny started walking 2 months ago so technically she has … Continue Reading...
Bean Bags and Ballerinas
My dear baby Penelope is turning ONE on the 12th...this means, Eeks, I need to get a move on with all her first birthday projects. So far, I have finished two of her gifts. The first is her tutu which I was planning on having her wear in her first birthday professional pictures that we'll have done sometime this week. … Continue Reading...
Drum Roll Please…
...Please? Pretty Please!? ...Ok, maybe after I show you the pictures you'll want to give me that drum roll. I saw on the Plum Pudding blog the idea for my latest project. Embroidered handprints of your child(ren)! It is such a great idea isn't it? Instead of the usual suspects, ink handprints or handprints in clay, this … Continue Reading...
Oh No!…We’ve Been Slimed!
Our Thursday art class has ended...boo hoo! So here is a project from a previous art class that I just never posted. Not sure why, I guess I was having mommy brain or something! In this class, we made slime and it was soooo much fun! This type of slime is incredibly fun to mess around with because it acts as a liquid if you … Continue Reading...
