How is it Wednesday already?! It's been a weird week around here, since we got back into town on Sunday night (Bjorn had had army training at Fort Knox for a week, and Sophie and I were in the Twin Cities that week, helping my mom after she broke her arm). And then Tuesday was a snow day (the 6th or 7th one this year?!) and we had a 2-hour late start this morning. Whew! Anyway, it's high time to get back into routines around here, and one of my favorite weekly things to do is to get our What's … [Read more...]
Valentine’s Day Bumblebee Footprint Craft
Sophie made two different Valentine's Day crafts this year! The first one was a handprint "blowing kisses" valentine, which I shared in this post, and today I'm sharing the second one we made! I love bumblebees and I think they're so cute in crafts. :) This is an easy craft you can do with your baby or toddler, and it fits the theme of Valentine's Day just perfectly when you add "Bee Mine" to the final product!

What’s For Dinner Wednesday (3 More Meal Ideas)
It's the third installment of our "What's For Dinner Wednesday" series! I've recently really gotten into finding quick or simple meals to make for supper. As much as I love an ambitious recipe (and enjoy cooking), I'm also a big fan of an easy supper that I can pull together with our busy 15-month-old daughter nearby! :) I'm also trying out a free month of Plan to Eat (an online account and app that stores recipes for you, helps you plan your meals out, and creates your whole shopping list! - … [Read more...]

What’s For Dinner Wednesday (5 More Meal Ideas)
Welcome to the second post in my "What's For Dinner Wednesday" series! In last week's post, I shared how I've recently really gotten into finding quick or simple meals to make for supper.

7 Simple Ways to Bring More Hygge Into Your Home
Have you heard about the concept of hygge yet? When I first learned of it, I remember turning to my husband and saying, That's it! THAT'S the word for what I love so much! I felt like I finally had come across the exact way to describe what I strive for in my mentality and my home. It was refreshing and comforting to finally have a term for it! In case you're new to the idea of hygge (pronounced more like hue-gah or sometimes hoo-gah), it's a Danish/Scandinavian term that means a sense of … [Read more...]
What’s For Dinner Wednesday (4 Simple Meal Ideas)
Lately I've gotten really into (or almost obsessed with, haha) finding quick or simple meals to make for supper. I think it all started with me seeing some moms share their go-to easy meals over on Instagram. It sparked my interest, because as much as I love an ambitious recipe, and as much as I do enjoy cooking...I also have a 15-month-old. And she is on. the. go! :) So I have a few options: I could spend her afternoon nap times prepping a more advanced meal for supper each night, I could risk … [Read more...]
My 25 Favorite Amazon Purchases in 2018
Ah, Amazon. It's one of my very favorite places to buy things! There are some items I just won't purchase from Amazon because they end up being overpriced or not top-notch quality, but for the most part, Amazon is where I turn to when I'm looking for something. We live over an hour's drive away from a Target and 35 minutes from a Walmart. Some days, I make the trek with my one-year-old in tow, but I have to plan for that kind of outing and have the energy for it, haha. :) Therefore, a lot of … [Read more...]
