I recently decided to do something for myself. Our “spare time” during the day usually consists of taking the kids to things they like to do such as the library, the children’s museum or the park. And when we go shopping, I bolt straight for the kiddie section. I just can’t help myself. But recently, I […]
I’m not one to shout to the world, “Look what my hubby did!” But seriously….. look what my hubby did!!!! For Valentines Day I had purchased all of the ingredients to make a romantic dinner at home for The Hubby and I since we would have the kids. I had everything ready to go, but […]
A super simple (and last minute, if needed!) Valentine (or just because!) gift idea found on Pinterest is this “I love you because…” frame. You probably have all of the materials already in your house and who wouldn’t love receiving little love notes “just because” daily/weekly/monthly or however often you’d like to dole them out?? […]
Ohhhhhhh yum. These brownies are moist, chocolaty, a little creamy due to that cream cheese layer and perfect for a delicious Valentines Day treat.

With two kids who need naps during the day it makes it hard to really “live it up” for the Super Bowl like we used to, so we stayed in for the big game. The babes and I may not be the most ideal Super Bowl watching buddies, but we sure did try. .. Well, […]
I have officially been blogging for just over a year now. I began this blog with the intention of just getting my thoughts out of my head and onto a space that I could revisit in the future. While this blog has definitely done that, it became more than I expected. It has become a […]

Height: Uhhhh…. Eye color: Blue Hair color: Strawberry blonde Favorite thing in the world? Stealing his sister’s toys. He wants everything […]
I am weird because… I pour extra salt on restaurant chips I enjoy getting the mail, especially when there’s a package, even if I know what it is. I often lounge with one bare foot and one foot with a sock on it. I like extremely hot showers. The kind that leave my body with […]
