We are out of the “terrible twos” and we now have “threenagers”. Haha! I really didn’t think the terrible two’s were all that terrible, there were definitely some hard moments and learning moments for all of us. Now that we’ve entered three, my two really understand right from wrong and are great at helping with things around the house. However, I needed something to motivate them so I started doing some research and found these Chore/Responsibility Charts from Calendar Kids on Etsy! I ...
My Experience Potty Training Twins
Today’s post is all about potty training! I meant to post this a while ago but life has been busy! I can officially say my kids are potty trained and have been for a while! Please keep in mind, I am NOT a potty training expert and I am not in the medical field. I read a lot of books and made a system that I thought worked best for our family. I’m just sharing what we had success with! When is the right time to potty train? The first time we tried they weren’t even 2, a lot of people say this ...

Every Little Girls Dream Dollhouse
I’ve been getting a lot of questions about Ella’s dollhouse that she received for her 3rd birthday so I thought I’d share the information! We bought this dollhouse! I loved the inside and how it was made, it felt so much sturdier than the plastic dollhouses you see everywhere. However, I’m not a huge green fan and so I decided we needed to made one small change…the doors! After a little work (thanks, Judd!), it made a drastic difference and Ella and I are obsessed with her ...
A Letter to My Babies on Their 3rd Birthday
Every year I email Camden and Ella a letter on their birthday (plus other random ones throughout the year). I hope when they are older they login to the email account I created and read all of these letters. This year I decided to share their birthday letters with you. Dear Camden and Ella, Happy 3rdBirthday!! Every year we celebrate the greatest gifts that I’ve ever been given, you! It’s my favorite day of the year. I feel like I don’t get overly emotional except around your birthday ...
Selecting the Best Preschool for Your Child
Oh goodness, friends…it was a process picking a preschool for Camden and Ella! I thought I’d share about my experience in case it might help someone. If you’re local to Charleston, I’m sorry but I will not be naming the schools I toured or the school we selected. This is for my kids’ own safety and because it’s just my opinion and I don’t want to hurt another schools’ reputation. First things first, I toured 10 schools and they were all very different! My first tip is to have all your ...
