Let's talk smiles! I'm really grateful for the fact that I had braces as a kid. Sure, they're uncomfortable and annoying when you're in middle school, but they are a worthy investment in a future smile and I'm immensely thankful to my parents that we were able to make that happen! While I love having teeth that are functional and straight, I've wished they were whiter for years now. Not in a shallow way - "Barbie" shouldn't be the goal here - but I just always wondered if there was … [Read more...]
Greek Turkey Pitas with Yogurt Sauce: An Easy Supper Recipe
Looking for a new recipe to try? I recently shared this sentiment in my meal planning post, but I really love finding new meal ideas that I can incorporate into our recipe rotation! There's something comforting about already knowing you'll enjoy the meal you're making tonight, you know? (For instance, tonight I'm making Thai Red Curry and I know that it'll be delicious!) Well, I've made the recipe in this blog post for supper a couple times now, and it's an especially flavorful and yummy … [Read more...]
From the List to the Table: My Meal Planning Process
One of my favorite parts of the week is grocery shopping! Do you like shopping for meals, too? It's such a good feeling to have a well-stocked refrigerator ready to go for the week, isn't it? :) But having a full fridge and meals for the week doesn't start and end there with a big grocery trip. A good amount of planning and thought goes into the process, to make sure we're doing it wisely! I was determined to get into meal planning at the start of this year. Although I've definitely mapped … [Read more...]
Our Favorite Handmade Wooden Toys (+ a discount for you!)
Even before I was pregnant with Sophie, I was pretty adamant that my home wouldn't be filled with mounds of electronic toys. While I have calmed down a bit in regards to that idea (for instance, Sophie has a play gym with an owl that plays songs)...something in me still remains such a fan of the more handmade category of toys. Thank you to Bannor Toys for these toys! (I partnered with Bannor Toys on Instagram, but because I'm so impressed, I also wanted to share about the company here on the … [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...]
4 Stress Relief Strategies From My Husband (+ a $500 PayPal Cash giveaway!)
Even typing the title for this post had me smiling! It was definitely crucial for me to include the fact that these stress relief tips come from my wonderful husband, because I am not particularly qualified to offer stress relief advice at this point! Perhaps someday. ;) My husband Bjorn is such a "steady Eddy," something I am consistently noticing and am grateful for! To have someone like him in my life has been an incredible blessing. Bjorn doesn't stress the way that many people so often … [Read more...]

Our Daily Routine
Sophie is 4 and a half months old, and I am so in love with our little life we've built -- by now, I can read her needs really well, she knows her mama really well, and together we giggle and play and learn during the day...and wait for Daddy to come home so we can continue the fun and the snuggles with him! Remember how in past posts, I kept saying I was looking forward to getting into a routine? Well, I can now say we have one! (Hooray!) Sophie and I have settled into a nice daily rhythm, … [Read more...]
