As Hazel gets older I think more and more about the different milestones each age brings. There’s crawling, walking, talking, and then soon there after all these we reach potty training. It seems to be the bane of all the milestones and I hear it can be either really difficult or really easy, all depending on how your little one responds. So to prepare myself (and you as well) for the coming months -because you can never really be too early to start- I’ve come up with a list of things that will help make… Read More

a condensed version of my weekend
Last week around here was a little rough to say the least. Hazel was quite angry most of the time -new teeth coming in- and she wasn’t sleeping very well for naps or at night. So the moral of the story is that we were both sleep deprived and in pain. HA! Her more than I was obviously.

Hazel fell asleep to Bob Ross again… on Friday… And if… Read More

Sometimes it’s tricky finding the perfect snack for toddlers, especially since they are often times really picky eaters. With Gerber snacks on hand it’s almost become second nature to grab these when I head to the pantry. And a major pro to these lil’… Read More
what I’m liking, Friday
this For months I’ve been meaning to finish my gallery wall and it’s just not happening. One of those things where you need to print pictures, buy the frames and all that jaz. I guess you could say it’s a project that will take time, or something that I just can’t figure out yet. But, to encourage my eye, I’ve found some pretty gallery walls that I’m dying over. Love the colors in this one, and the cactus is probably the best part. These pictures are big and pretty. Practically the whole wall. Incorporating kids… Read More
