Keeping your fingernails clean in the garden!

IMG_8708

If you’re a gardener, it’s time to get that garden started! My husband and I recently planted a vegetable garden, and we are crossing our fingers we get a good turn out this year! It’s our first year. I don’t really mind gardening (though I don’t necessarily have a green thumb…), but one thing I [...]

Covering Up the Monogram…

IMG_8585

We were given a ton of hand-me-downs when we had Lilleigh. So many that between the hand-me-downs and gifts, we’ve had to buy very few clothes. But a few of the items we were given were monogrammed for their previous owner. Bummer! Especially because some of them are essentials and/or so stinkin cute that they [...]

Baby Scalloped Shorts!

IMG_8529

Lilleigh has this odd pair of pajama pants that for the longest time I couldn’t figure out if they were intended to, in fact, be pajama pants or just pants. The polka dots and flannel made me think pajama, but the pocket placement seemed odd… Anyway we didn’t wear them much this winter because she [...]

IMG_8498

We loooove our berries in the summer! But a major pet peeve of mine is when I buy berries, only to have them go bad within the week, or worse within a couple of days. There is one store with awesome sales near me that this seems to always happen with berries I buy from [...]

We were needing another bin to put near sliding door in the living room to hold our shoes,. {You always need them to go outside right? Why not keep them near the door?} Instead of buying a bin, I used a cardboard diapers box, a hot glue gun, and some extra fabric to make my [...]

I showed you all how to make crock pot yogurt. {Speaking of which, there were lots of questions on that – answers to come!} And one question I got is what to do with all of the yogurt if your baby is the only one to eat it. Well I have several suggestions. Such as [...]

Texture Play – The Soap-in-a-Bag Version!

IMG_8465

They say it’s important for tots to experience different textures. This is actually important for learning reading and writing too! {Don’t ask me the details. I majored in elementary education years ago… I’ve done too much since then. Any teachers want to elaborate on this for me?} This is a bag filled with a mixture [...]

Don’t throw it out! Regrow Onions!

IMG_8401

I read recently that you can regrow green onions simply by putting the roots in water. Naturally I had to test out this theory. So after chopping off the green (chives), I placed the root in a cup of water. TUESDAY: SUNDAY: In 5 days they regrew a crazy amount! Try it next time you [...]

Apple Sauce Squeezers: Great on the run snack for littles!

IMG_8458

I showed y’all how impressed I was with these genius “gogurt” tutorials last week. And I seriously couldn’t get them out of my mind. They’re just genius. So I got out my food saver and started playing around with it! And I came up with another fun idea – apple sauce squeezers! Though I used [...]

A New Way to Store Your Sheets!

IMG_8377

Making beds is sometimes problematic… say, when your messy linen closet makes it difficult to find both pillow cases, a fitted sheet, and a flat sheet, all that match! Well, ladies (and gents), fret no more. Admire my imperfectly folded sheets. Be amazed as they’re tucked inside this pillow case. And stacked ever so neatly [...]
