The twins are 4!
We’ve had a whirlwind couple of weeks, and I have sooooo many pictures to go through (and corresponding blog posts to write)...but today? It’s important to share that: THE TWINS TURNED 4! Like, they had a birthday. And now they’re 4. And I’m a mother to four-year-olds. And soon they’ll be asking to wear deodorant. And then they’ll move out and I’m ugly-crying right now. Among a few other ... [ Read More ]

The sibling connection
Having twins, we had a unique parenting perspective of having siblings from the very beginning. Sibling love is probably one of the cutest things everrrr. But throwing a new baby in the mix is always a big question mark. Will they love her? Will there be jealousy issues? Will 3 be a crowd? Well, we have the next 17.5 years to figure all that out. But I’m happy to report that... so far so ... [ Read More ]
Custom Playhouse / Playground {Part 1}
Nick and I have always planned to build the girls a their own custom playground area. But when we found this plastic Little Tykes thingamajig a few years ago on our local ‘for sale’ page, it seemed like a good thing to tide the girls over until we had the time and funds to ‘do it right’. They’ve gotten sooooo much use out of that thing. But these precious toddler days are OVER (collective ... [ Read More ]

Wood Stain Art – Dahlia Dining Table
Doing wood stain art is soooo addicting for me. I wouldn’t call it ‘instant’ gratification, but the transformation happens over the course of a couple hours... and it’s so fun to watch it unfold!

Shortly after posting that video, I was already having the itch to stain again, and Nick and I fell upon this dining table at a ... [ Read More ]
Husbands and Hobbies
Top of the mornin’! How was your weekend?! The girls and I had so much fun making Nick feel special and loved this Father’s Day weekend. He loves that the girls share an interest in his model airplane hobby, and took ALL 3 GIRLS to the local air field. When I was a kid, they made bouncy seats for babies that had little canopies for shade... but I can’t find them anywhere these days! I always ... [ Read More ]
Rainbow Tie-Dye Cake
A few weeks ago, I posted a picture of Nick’s Rainbow Birthday Cake to Instagram. The girls are old enough to want to get involved in things like birthdays, so when they proclaimed that they wanted to make their daddy a rainbow tie-dye cake, I was happy to oblige! And he was just grateful to have cake. Since posting that pic, several of you have begged me to post a tutorial. And since I ... [ Read More ]
Being Present in my own Life
People are always telling me they can’t believe how productive I am, and all that I get done with 3 kids (3 and under). Well I could write a whole post about not watching TV, and enjoying my projects, etc. Blah blah blah...But the truth is, I find myself looking at my phone A LOT. I’ve been feeling really convicted about this lately... especially when my girls are around wishing I was paying ... [ Read More ]
