Happy Mother's Day!

This year, I got to spend Mother's Day with my mom, which is a rare treat as she lives across the country. But thanks to a hospital scare that had us waking our three girls in the middle of the night, we thought it'd be nice to have grandma come out earlier than expected (just in case we had any more preterm labor scares). My poor mom ended up taking the next red eye to be here for us and I just feel so blessed and so loved!

Open Ended Toys to Boost Imagination

A huge thanks to my friends at Hape Toys for sponsoring today's post and providing my youngest with hours of fun!

Children need imaginative play toys that meet their creative needs as they grow and learn. That's why today I'm sharing a list of open-ended toys to promote imaginative play in toddlers, preschoolers and elementary aged kids. 

Master Bedroom Reveal

It’s no secret that one of my passions is interior design and home decor. I always get so many questions about the decor throughout my home whether it’s my kitchen, bedroom or girl's rooms. 

Since moving into our new-build, I've realized that not all of our furniture and decor fits perfectly, like it did in our last home. Which has given me a fun opportunity to find new pieces to incorporate into our home. And while our house is still a work in progress, I do love the coziness of our master bedroom. 

Peanut Butter Ginger Snaps Recipe

These soft & chewy Peanut Butter Ginger Snaps are more commonly seen around Christmas, but let me assure you these are perfect for any gathering!

I was introduced to a version of these cookies by my darling friend nearly two years ago, but boy did these cookies resonate with my family! Over the weekend my kids were begging me to make them cookies- they suggested making Ginger Snaps or Peanut Butter cookies. Ultimately we couldn't decide on just one recipe so we decided to combine them. 

Which turned out to be a very tasty surprise. The cookies turned out amazing! 

If you love perfectly spiced and super soft cookies, then you're in for a treat with this Peanut Butter Ginger Snaps Recipe! 

Quiet Time in our Home

Today I'm sharing everything I've tried and learned about quiet time with our kiddos. This little break in the day keeps me (and my girls) sane and happy!

England Travels-pt. 2

Every time I look at our pictures from our England trip, I can't help but re-live all of our fun adventures there and become even more obsessed with England. I can't believe it's been eight months and I'm barely getting around to sharing them🤦 (you can thank school for that)!

3 Steps to Revamp a Faux Fireplace {in 10 Minutes}!

A huge thanks to Smart Tiles for sponsoring Today's post and helping me to transform our fireplace! As always all thoughts are all my own!

When we were in the planning phase of building our home we were told we couldn't choose the location of our great room fireplace and that it could only be in the corner (which I detest). So we, of course, opted to not get one installed by the builders. But I still longed for the look of a fireplace. 

New Home + New Must Have!

A special thanks to Rug Pad USA for sponsoring today's post! As always all thoughts are all my own!

We finally have a home, which feels AMAZING after living in an apartment for ten months. Now that we're here, I'm realizing that we need to add a little more comfort to our main-level because the wood floors don't pair well with my 8-month pregnancy 🤰 feet:D!

Happy Valentine's Day!

England Trip-Day 1

Our Trip to England felt like a dream! Kyle had to be in England for business for a few days, so we decided to make a week-long adventure out of it. My sweet mom was nice enough to fly out to be with our girls as Kyle and I went gallivanting through the UK. 

On our trip, we saw the most beautiful villages and countrysides Britain has to offer, rendezvoused with one of our best friends, and visited all the must-see tourist spots in London. It was a trip Kyle and I will always remember.
