*Sorry! This giveaway has ended. Check back every Monday for another great giveaway.* Have you heard of Scentsy? I hadn’t until a few friends starting selling their products. I don’t actually own a Scentsy product, but have heard wonderful things!!!…
I saw the idea for this little turkey here and thought it would be fun to make. The only problem was…I didn’t have any colored marshmallows. We had regular marshmallows, so we improvised by adding some gel food coloring. It made…
This simple activity turned into over 45-minutes of family fun yesterday evening! We took turns tossing the turkey ball back and forth and saying what we were thankful for. Big Brother L-O-V-E-D this! He was thankful for everything from his bed,…
This phrase is the only thing I remember from watching our high school’s production of Fiddler on the Roof ten years ago (and the fact that the male lead was my best friend’s boyfriend, but that’s not really relevant). Anytime I…
*For those of you who are new here, I am going to apologize in advance (as I always do) for my terrible singing voice as well as the fact that you can barely hear that voice (count it as a…
I feed on the approval of others. There I said it. It is one of my many weaknesses. In fact, the constant lack of affirmation was one of the single hardest parts of becoming a stay-at-home mother. I was used…
I love this idea from Flipflops and Applesauce… Head on over here to find out how to make one for your family!
I love how children’s crafts always take on a life of their own. So what if it doesn’t look all that much like it is supposed to…it is the process, not the product. :) Even though this Mayflower does not…
I’m always amazed how the most mundane things in our lives can be extremely exciting in the eyes of a child. Now, obviously I consider myself extremely blessed to be able to vote and choose the leaders for our country,…
Each year at Thanksgiving, my family has the tradition of going around the table and saying what we’re thankful for. Even though there are some eye rolls from certain members of the family, it is something I look forward to…
I shared this idea on my Facebook page a few days ago, but finally got a chance to visit a few stores today! Christmas is just around the corner…but that doesn’t mean we can’t take advantage of a few Halloween…
This activity was a HUGE hit at our house. Big Brother would have continued this all afternoon if Mean-Old Mommy didn’t make him take a nap. :)Â It’s also very open-ended and could be adapted for numbers and shapes as…
By the third month, your baby has emerged from a sleepy newborn to a cooing, alert infant! She has also discovered her appendages and will now flail them to her heart’s content! She is quickly becoming more interactive and loves to watch…
Today is supposed to be the scariest day of the year. People try their best to be spooky and frightening. This is actually why I am really not that big of a fan of Halloween. Why can’t we just let…
I usually post a cute craft or learning activity that I find on the web for my Show-and-Share Saturday posts. But today I feel like sharing something a bit deeper… I recently reconnected with a long, lost childhood friend via the…
About 7 months ago, I walked into the kitchen at our old house to find batteries strewn all over the floor. I had been changing Little Brother’s diaper and didn’t know that Big Brother could open the refrigerator (which is…
We carved a pumpkin last night…for the first time since Big Brother was born. As expected, he wanted nothing to do with sticking his hand inside the icky pumpkin. (Just a forewarning–I have been playing around with the manual setting on…
