Soren’s Little Blue Truck First Birthday Party
I love party planning, especially themed parties! I don't go completely over the top, but I sure enjoy creating a special celebration for our kids and centering it around a theme.

Sophie’s Zoo-Themed 3rd Birthday Party
Sophie turned 3 on October 16! It's hard to believe she's been a 3-year-old for a month already. Where has the time gone? Like we do every year, we had an early birthday party for Sophie (her birthday falls right in the middle of our busy harvest season around here!). But it's still just as special - plus, I'm of the opinion that having your birthday party on a different day than your birthday just spreads the celebration out more! How fun! :) Celebrating a couple weeks later on her actual … [Read more...]
13 Habits + Rhythms That Make a Big Difference for Me:
I'm such a creature of habit. Are you like that, too? I suspect that most of us are - it's just human nature to gravitate towards what worked well for us last time!

Some of these rhythms have come and gone for me over the years, but as time … [Read more...]

DIY St. Patrick’s Day Sensory Bottle
This is our second sensory bottle post! Sophie and I have really gotten into sensory activities lately. It all started when I picked the date to officially begin potty training. With the method we were using, I knew we'd have to stay home for potentially days on end, so I wanted to have fun new activities and projects to do with my daughter! RELATED READING: DIY "Frozen" Themed Sensory Bottle We started out by making a "Frozen" movie themed sensory bottle, which was a big hit! (Sophie … [Read more...]
