It's time for another monthly update! Here's a peek at our past four weeks (plus a peek ahead at the month of July)! June Recap: We celebrated Signe's graduation! Bjorn's sister Signe graduated from college (a whole year early!) at the start of June. Her graduation ceremony was in Las Vegas, and we had been planning on going, but with how things were going with planting season this year, we ended up needing to be at home. However, we were able to watch her walk live online! We hooked it up … [Read more...]
Sophie’s 8 Month Update
Our sweet Sophie B is 8 months old! Here are the updates from this past month! Sophie's 8 Month Update Nicknames: Sophie B, Sophie Bean, BeeBee (probably the most often used one), Honey, Dolly, Bugaboo, BeeBee Brynn :) And the most recent nickname? Sophie-Saurus! Haha. She's been making dinosaur noises as she climbs all over us! Size: I took Sophie in for her next vaccine (we do one at a time) on May 30 (at 7.5 months old), and she weighed in at exactly 15 pounds!! She's definitely … [Read more...]
May Recap + What I’m Looking Forward to in June
These past 4 weeks have flown by! Here's a recap of the month of May, plus a peek ahead at June! May Recap: Planting season is in full swing! Basically, scheduling anything on the calendar in May or June is usually hard for a farming family, haha. Because you never know when the weather will be good and you'll have to be in the field!! By the time this blog post goes live, we'll have a good amount of our soybeans planted. I heard on the radio the other day that Minnesota's soybeans are about … [Read more...]
55 Must-Have Books For Your Child’s Library
Friends, I am so, SO excited about this post! I've been thinking about it for a long time now, but I just had to collect all the information and double-check things first before sharing it all with you! If you don't know already, Bjorn and I are HUGE fans of books and reading. I always thought I loved to read a lot, until I met my husband. Bjorn is probably the most busy person I know, but also the most productive lifelong learner I know. He's always intentional with his time and despite all … [Read more...]
Our Best Baby Sleep Tips and Strategies (Age 4-6 Months)
I've mentioned in Sophie's recent updates that we've been extra intentional about her sleep routines these past few months. I know that things change as babies get older, but we've experienced some awesome success with her (read: sleep for everybody!) so I wanted to write a blog post about our strategies before things change again, haha. Sophie was a great flexible napper earlier on in her life, and would be fine napping anywhere and near anyone (like many little babies are!). But we … [Read more...]
Sophie’s 7 Month Update
Solveig Brynn is 7 months old!! Can you believe it? I feel like we literally just celebrated her 6 month birthday. It's crazy how quickly these months are flying by! Sophie's 7 Month Update Nicknames: Sophie B, BB, BeeBee Bonnet, Dolly, Baby, BeeBee Brynn...and we like to call her Sophie Brynn or Solveig Brynn a lot, too! Size: I honestly haven't weighed her since her 6 month doctor's appointment. She was 13 lbs 7 oz at that appointment and in the 6th percentile for weight, and … [Read more...]
Summer Bucket List (+ a printable template for you!)
I just love this time of year, friends! Let's see if you resonate with this, too. I really like the sense of anticipation you get riiiight before summer officially hits. To be honest, sometimes I think I get just as much of a kick out of the anticipation of summer adventures as summer itself! Isn't that funny? Do you get filled with this sense of anticipation as the weather warms, too? It's almost like the feeling you'd get as a kid in the springtime, knowing that school would be out soon and … [Read more...]
April Recap + What I’m Looking Forward to in May
I'd say spring is officially here! Here's what we've been up to this past month, plus a peek ahead at May. April Recap: The month of April wasn't as busy as our month of March was! (See our March recap for proof of that!) But I'm okay with seasons of busyness intermixed with seasons of calmer times. So much of life works that way, you know? And things will pick up again in busyness for us in May, but the month of April has been a nice in-between season. :) ^^ Sophie at her 6 month … [Read more...]
