I’ve partnered with Cath Kidston for this post and can’t wait to show you their beautiful clothes! It’s almost Christmas! I can’t even believe it. This month (and let’s be real, this whole year) flew by in a flash. I’m still pinching myself that these two little redheaded blue-eyed girls are mine. Belle’s first Christmas, and our first ...

Our Christmas cards have all been sent out so I can finally share them with all of you! Our first Christmas as a family of FIVE. I still can't believe it.  I LOVE getting Christmas cards in the mail every year. And my kids love it too! We hold on to all of them and go through them all daily. It's such a fun tradition and I love seeing ... Read More

Does your spouse fill your Christmas stocking for you? Or do you end up doing your own? I'm in charge of the kid's stockings and my husband's stocking....and he is supposed to fill mine. Except that time last year when he forgot. And I guarantee he will NEVER make that mistake again. This year he's totally taking matters in to his own hands...but ... Read More

I’ve partnered with Santa and American Dental Association for this post and I love working with the big man in red. Working with Santa to surprise the kids is one of my favorite parts of Christmas! ... Read More

I've forgotten how magical it is to have a baby at Christmas time. It's so fun to watch her little eyes light up with every ornament, Christmas light, and sparkling decoration. And then of course every single thing goes straight to her mouth. So that's been fun! We are keeping the Christmas gifts for Belle super simple this year. She ... Read More

My husband is hard to buy for. He has what he needs...and if there is something he wants he will usually just buy it. I guess you could say I'm the same....except I want everything. And he wants nothing. I think I'm super easy to shop for...but I'm sure he would disagree with me on that point. Thankfully I discovered the perfect gift for the person ... Read More

Picture this: I’ve just spent two hours getting all three kids fed, dressed, hair brushed, teeth brushed, bags packed….and THEN have struggle for an extra 15 minutes to get them to put on their shoes. Because I have to ask at least 8 times for it to happen. Some days it’s more like 20. But to make matters a little more complicated, let's throw in ... Read More

1. Dirty hair is the new black. Yep, I said it. Dirty hair is the way to go as a busy mom. In order to make this look work for you, you have to train your hair to go without washing.
