Taking Care of Monkey Business

Olivia Gwen {Birth Story}

It’s been a while, huh? Well, I realized I never wrote the story of how my newest little monkey, Olivia, was born. Now that she’s over a year old, I figured it was time to document it (oops). This was my 4th pregnancy, and not as bad as some of the others. I was nauseous…

Monthly Calendar {FREE Printable}

Hey friends! As you may know, I’ve moved on from my blogging days and haven’t posted in a while. But guess what? I miss it! So I may sneak back on here every once in a while to share something I’ve come up with. I just can’t resist 🙂 I made this printable calendar a…

Updated Last Day of School Signs {FREE Printables}

Can I start this post off with an apology?? I know you all have been wanting these signs, and it took me way longer to get them to you than expected. We’ve been hit with a nasty sick bug 🙁 And when your little monkeys ask for sicky snuggles, you drop what you’re doing and…

Last Day of School Signs {FREE Printables}

Holy moly! I feel like I JUST posted my first day of school signs, and somehow, it’s already time for the last day of school. It kind of snuck up on me, to be honest. Luckily, I have all of you to keep me on track. I’ve had emails pouring in the last week or two, asking…

6 Fun Nerf Gun Contests

About 2 years ago, I took a rare trip to the store without my kiddos. I was sick of the same old “watch a movie after the kids go to bed” date night Jonny and I had been having every. single. weekend. So I decided to be a little silly, and bought ourselves some Nerf guns….

Avocado Chicken Burritos

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser, Colgate-Palmolive. All opinions are mine alone. #FusionClean #CollectiveBias Once upon a time (just over 7 years ago), a 19-year-old version of myself married the man of my dreams. Right from the start, I gladly volunteered to be in charge of cooking. Especially because that meant…

FHE Assignment Board

I love pretty much everything about being a mom, but the one thing that I hate more than anything? My kids getting hurt. I am a total wimp when it comes to blood and injuries, and I do NOT handle it well. I knew it was just a matter of time before Owen ended up in…

Nutella Fruit Pizza

If you follow me on Instagram, you know that I went to my very first blog conference a few weeks ago. It was SO much fun, and I learned a lot! For some reason I have a hard time admitting that I’m a blogger. I guess I don’t feel very legitimate, and am a bit intimidated…

Toothbrush Bracelets

I don’t think I’ve ever been to Chicago (at least not that I can remember), but I don’t see how the “windy city” could be any windier than Kansas City. We’ve lived here over a month now, and the wind is relentless! And that means… so are my allergies. Holy moly, it’s down right crazy. I’ve…
