I'm so excited about today's post! I've been looking forward to sharing this one with you! :) I'm one of three children, and while we were growing up, my mom kept a growth chart ruler hanging in our bathroom to mark down our heights. It is so neat to look back over the years and see how little we once were! It's such a precious keepsake to have around, especially after the kids grow up and move out! Ever since Sophie was born, I've been wanting a similar growth chart ruler in our home, so … [Read more...]
Sophie’s Book Box (+ a promo code!)
If you know my husband or me at all, then you know we love to read! We love books and we love to learn. One of our favorite things to do is peruse the aisles of Barnes & Noble together, and we find it really really hard to say no to adding a new book to our collection. ;) Bjorn has hundreds of books that he's collected over the years - needless to say, a beautiful home library will be a must in our future home! Even though she's just one, our daughter Sophie loves to read, too! Every … [Read more...]
Our 2018 Christmas Cards (+ a promo code for you!)
Can you believe it's that time of year already?! While I may not be a fan of the bitter wind and gray, snowy skies, I have to admit it - I'm excited for the holiday season. We already have our tree up because I wanted our daughter to get as much Christmas-y enjoyment out of the decor as possible! And we've already been dancing to our Christmas playlist this week as we make supper. :) After all, when the temperature is down in the 20s and teens here in Minnesota...I feel like the Christmas … [Read more...]
Sophie’s Woodland First Birthday Party
I'm so excited about today's post! There was a lot of thinking and dreaming involved in planning Sophie's first birthday party. I'm not one of those people who knew the theme immediately upon learning they're expecting (haha), but I watched Sophie grow and thought about her interests and likes in order to come up with this party theme! (After all, this may be the only birthday that she isn't requesting certain themes! Mama got to dream this one up!) RELATED: Sophie's 1 Year Update! I … [Read more...]
No-Mess Autumn Tree Painting
I loved art projects as a kid. You could often find me downstairs early in the morning, poring through craft books and determining which project I'd attempt that day! :) Sometimes, I followed the directions step by step; other times, I made up my own craft! Even though I'm an adult now, I still really enjoy doing art projects with kids. I've made fun crafts with my nanny kids over the years, and I experienced a lot of art projects as an elementary school teacher, too! But what I've been … [Read more...]
Sophie’s First Easter Basket
Some links in this post are affiliate links. As always, I only share products with you that I truly like. Thanks for supporting Just Bee! I actually debated about whether or not to give Sophie an Easter basket this year (and any year), since I don't want the holiday to become materialistic to her as she grows up. I've had to think about how we'll approach this holiday with intention. Easter excitement shouldn't only center around things like candy and treats and egg hunts, even though those … [Read more...]
Baby Footprint Valentine’s Day Craft
Happy February, friends! I'm excited to share Sophie's valentine craft with you today! You can bet that I'm taking advantage of major holidays when it comes to baby crafts around here! ;) There are just too many cute ideas. Since Valentine's Day is right around the corner, Sophie and I spent time making some valentines one morning this week! I wanted to do a craft that involved her footprints and the leftover acrylic paint from our Mistletoes Christmas craft, so using her feet to create … [Read more...]
DIY Custom Poem Canvas
I'm so excited about today's post, because I've honestly been wanting to share it with you for months now! Remember how I designed Sophie's nursery to be a "southern garden" theme? I had a very detailed mood board and everything! I wrote all about it in this post (and you can see the mood board here, too!). If you looked closely at the mood board for Sophie's room, then you probably saw that it included a type of poem written in small font. This wasn't just an example of any kind of poem … [Read more...]
