I can’t believe it’s almost Valentine’s Day! Seriously, where does the time go?? To be honest, I’ve always hated Valentine’s Day. I assumed it was just me being bitter about not having a boyfriend (ha!) but even now that I’m married, I hate it just as much. I’m sorry, but buying an overpriced bouquet of…
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…
DIY Princess Costume
Sophie may look more like her dad (according to others… I still don’t see it), but she certainly shares a lot of similar qualities with her mama. Confession: I’m not the most efficient decision maker. I’m kind of known as the most indecisive person ever. So it’s no surprise that my little girl took about 2…
DIY Superhero Snack
This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #MARVELSnackBar #CollectiveBias As much as I hate to admit it, my little boy is growing up. In my mind, Owen’s still a baby, so it’s strange to see him act like a big boy! He’s so independent, and…
Leaf Rubbings {Kids Craft}
This might be the most simple art project in existence, but is still so much fun! I was surprised at how much Sophie got into it. When we started on the first leaf, she was squealing like it was magic. So cute. And yes, if you’re wondering, she had chocolate on her face in these pictures…
DIY Monster Wreath
I honestly wished I had filmed my 2-year-old’s reaction to this monster wreath. It was priceless. He got this shocked look on his face, and kept giggling and saying “woah!” Then he went into dino-mode and started growling at it and pretending to bite it. He’s a bit on the crazy side… but we love him…

DIY Sock Puppets
Ever have one of those projects you have every intention of doing, but just… don’t? This was mine. I’ve wanted to make sock puppets for months but never got around to it! I finally did, and can’t believe it took me so long. They were so easy to put together, and the kids LOVE them….
More Than Markers: A List of over 75 different art supplies for kids!
I am such a creature of habit… just ask my family. I can listen to the same song 100 times in a row, eat the same sandwich for lunch everyday for a month, and wear the same outfit everyday for a week (I’d wash it, of course. I’m weird, but I’m not gross). My poor…
Paper Plate Tambourine
Story time, folks. Today, we made these paper tambourines. It was a fun craft, and the kids had a blast putting them together – we ended up making 5 of them! Owen even got into the artsy fartsy stuff, which he normally isn’t a huge fan of. When I took the kiddos outside to take…
