After going through infertility, I became really cautious about chemicals in our home and those that we’re exposed to. I became even more cautious once my two kiddos entered the world. Even still, it was something that I never even thought about until looking up mattresses for Camden and Ella’s new rooms (those reveals will be coming soon) …standard mattresses are filled with chemical pesticides. Umm WHAT? Petrol based foams, polyurethanes, formaldehydes, and sprayed on chemical fire ...
Oversized Playroom Portraits
We are almost finished with the playroom; I can’t wait to share the entire reveal with you. However, before that happens…I’ve gotten many many messages asking about the oversized photos in the playroom so I thought I’d share the details. :) When we first walked through our new house, one of the things I fell in love with was the playroom. I could envision Camden and Ella playing in here and immediately saw oversized prints of them on the wall. I researched and researched how to do ...
How to Build a Gallery Wall
I LOVE looking at photos! Whether I’m in a good or a bad mood, looking at happy memories always puts a smile on my face! Every house that we’ve lived in had a gallery wall and every time they look a little different. The one we just completed in our current home is my favorite yet! I thought I’d share my easy and fun process for designing a gallery wall. Visualize what you want. Do you want uniformed or more of a collage of different sizes? 2. Plan the space. This means measuring ...
Our Preschool Plan
After everything that has gone on in the world in the past few months, we have decided to homeschool Camden and Ella for preschool! I was raised by a public-school teacher and my husband and I both went to the same public-school district, homeschooling is something I never saw us doing but I am really excited. I am determined to make this year fun for them! I know all parents are in the same boat this year, so I am thinking of you all and I know you will make the right decision for your ...
See Rome in 3 Days
We had about 15 trips planned for the spring and summer of 2020. Thanks to Covid-19, all of them have been cancelled and I don’t have any plans to travel within the next few months, way too nervous! I miss it and I miss sharing our adventures so I thought it would be fun to share about a trip we did for our first anniversary that I have never shared before…Italy, Greece, and Croatia! Still to do this day, this is one of my most favorite vacations EVER! Our first stop was Rome which I will share ...
Amazon Haul- Summer Dresses
Amazon Haul time, everybody! I love reading and watching peoples’ Amazon Hauls! I have no desire to be a fashion blogger but I do love a good summer dress, so I thought I’d share my favorite dresses that I’ve bought on Amazon. For every dress that I’ve found that I loved on Amazon, I’ve also found several that I didn’t like and I sent back (I won’t be sharing those). For size purposes in case you want to order one of these dresses from my Amazon haul, I’m 5’7 and weigh 120 pounds. If you click ...
