I recently took the kids on a spontaneous trip to the beach to kill some time while AJ played in a golf tournament. Luckily we are only a half hour from one of our favorite beaches and we love taking the kids out for a few hours whenever we can. Living in Northern California, you [...]

Activity: Toddler Dino Dig
My parents have been in the process of remodeling their backyard and the kids have had a lot of fun exploring and helping with all the demo. They have an old planter box under their office window that they plan on turning into a patio area. To keep the kids entertained and away from all [...]
Activities I Use to Entertain My Toddlers as a SAHM
Being a SAHM is exhausting. And trying to find ways to constantly keep these toddlers entertained and occupied instead of destroying the house or watching Daniel Tiger all day long is tough! I was recently talking with a friend who has decided to stay at home with her kids instead of going back to work. [...]

Relocating with Toddlers

A Shared Room for Siblings
I loved being able to have the kids share a bedroom. Not only was it easier on me to keep them together in one space and their toys in a separate room, but they loved being able to fall asleep together every night and being able to hear their little conversations was absolutely adorable. For [...]
Carrot Feet Art Project
Oliver has a weird thing about his feet. Anytime we have a sensory bin out he always tries to put his feet in it. When he's outside, he never keeps his shoes on. Puddles? He's splashing around in them barefoot. I'm not entirely sure why he loves it but he does! So when we started [...]
Cotton Ball Easter Bunny
This project is by far one of the cutest things I've ever seen for Easter. I saw a version of it a few years ago when Oliver was a few months old and I wanted to do a little something for AJ and the grandparents to celebrate Oliver's first Easter! With the kids being a [...]
