Some friends and family have already been asking what Grace and Owen could use for their birthday. And yes-even though we have plenty of hand-me-downs from our older boys, I still think it’s fun to open presents and ask for practical, long-lasting gifts that I know they’ll use. So, these are a few of my favorite things to get and gift for…
Making Easter baskets for the kids is one of my favorite traditions. I like to get them something they want, something they need, and of course, some treats because well, it’s a holiday thing. I rounded up some of my favorite finds for this Easter and they already have me dreaming of spring…
So I’ll be honest, I don’t always buy fun cereals like Lucky Charms for my kids but when St. Patrick’s Day rolls around, I can’t help myself! I use it to make this yummy snack mix and my kids can’t get enough. There’s always some cereal left over, too so really, it’s a win-win for everyone…
Love baskets are prepped and ready! I like a mix of things that are fun, a little practical and OF COURSE taste good! So many cute finds this year and I can’t wait for the kids to see them…

Shout out to all the animated-mom readers out there because doing character voices is not my sweet spot…but hearing these narrators online is super fun and the boys are giggling the whole way through; five stars – four thumbs up – highly recommend. So, here are some fun and festive books to get you through the winter chill…
The holidays are almost here! I feel like toddlers are at the age when they just start to get into the fun of opening presents. For tots, they usually need a good balance of things that will get them learning but still be fun enough to hold their attention…always such a fine line! This year, these are my favorite gifts for the 2-4 (-ish) year olds that will keep them playing well into the new year…
I’m SO excited to celebrate the twins’ first Christmas this year and have some friends who also had pandemic babies; so needless to say, I have lots of littles to shop for this season and I’m NOT mad about it. Here’s a peek at some things I’ll be gifting to the wee ones this Christmas…
