It's almost Valentine's Day! I'm a sucker for a good crafty project, so I wanted to make some cute Valentines with Reagan. We whipped up these little "blowing kisses" cards to send out to all her grandparents!

DIY Color Sorting Activity
Sorting colors is a great skill to practice with toddlers and preschoolers. To make the process fun, I whipped up this color sorting tray to use with Reagan and she picked it up so quickly! (Bonus, it's also a great fine motor skill builder!) This literally took me about ten minutes to put together, and… Continue reading DIY Color Sorting Activity
No-Carve Pumpkins for Toddlers
In my opinion, there really isn't another decoration that screams "fall" more than pumpkins! Carved, painted, or just piled in a stack, they just add the perfect autumnal touch to any home! Traditionally my husband and I carve pumpkins each year, but we sort of figured toddlers and knives don't really mix. So we decided… Continue reading No-Carve Pumpkins for Toddlers

To make a set of crib rail covers, you will need: fabric batting snaps… Continue reading Padded Crib Rail Cover Tutorial

Pink, Gold and Floral 1st Birthday
Last weekend, we celebrated our little girl's first birthday...I'm still in denial. It seems like just yesterday she was arriving into the world (that is, after 48 exhausting hours of labor, and just 20 minutes of pushing!) But, as much as I keep trying to pretend it isn't happening, my baby is now one whole… Continue reading Pink, Gold and Floral 1st Birthday
DIY Tissue Paper Garland
A week from today, my daughter will be One. Year. Old. *insert sobs here*. I decided I was going to attempt a DIY Cake smash photo shoot with her, but I didn't want to spend a lot on the backdrop. So, true to my crafty nature, I decided to make a tissue paper garland myself.… Continue reading DIY Tissue Paper Garland
