What a week of true displays of athletic talent by this crew of kiddos. Who knew we had an underwater diver at only 7 years old, or an 8 year old sprinting phenom, or a 3 yo pencil dive and 11y0 cannon ball extraordinaires?! I HIGHLY recommend organizing Olympic events for your kids to gear up for Paris 2024. The events were the highlight of our week. The grandpa/dads did have to put in a lot of time and effort into organizing each event and making them fair for each team. But it was well done and well worth it because it is a memory that these kids will never forget. Now we’re all ready to bring on the Paris Olympics 2024! How will you be celebrating? olympics at home olympics with kids watching the olympics Olympics for all summer vacation vacation activities Keeping kids fit Kids and sports

The last time just the four of us were under the big top 🎪 was right before Mairead was born in 2019. Always love a great @cirquedusoleil show and #corteo was a hit with the kids and adults. Look at this lady in balloons 🎈 🎈 so fun! Today is their last day in VA and then they move on to Philly and other cities up and down the east coast. Check it out for a fun family event.
We bought our fast growing lemon trees a year ago, and by September we were harvesting our first 🍋 . We planted them in big pots and moved them indoors once frost hit. It was amazing having fresh lemons all winter long. Lately, we have at least 2-3 lemons a week and there are a ton of sweet little buds ready to turn into 🌸 and then 🍋 just in time for the heat to hit! If you want details on where we bought these fast growing trees comment and I’ll send you the information.

Since moving to our new home, our energy bills have been higher than we would like. Through the Quick Home Energy Check-up (QHEC) program with @pepcoconnect we were able to learn about our home’s energy efficiency. Plus, we received new products, like our two new smart thermostats, at no-cost, which has helped us to save energy. If you are interested in saving energy and possibly money, request your QHEC today through the link in my bio. #saveenergy #pepcosavings @pepcoconnect #sponsored
By simply sitting outside and waving “bye” to Michael, and our oldest two kids here’s what happened: 🩷We consistently got the kids to school on time! 🩷A stronger bond between the kids, especially my oldest (7) and youngest (1.5). 🩷An excitement over the morning sights and sounds blossoming around us. 🌧️🐜🐦 🩷My mood was recharged. Mornings are busy and fast moving. I found sitting outside with the girls reset me for a more happy day. 🩷My youngest started talking more and wanting to be more connected to others besides momma. 🩷Created expectations so made for easier morning transitions. 🩷Love, everyone feels a little more love🥰 Will you include this into your day? What’s one thing your family does each morning?
Either way she’s mine ✨ I have visions of European summer nights in this dress, no such trip is planned, but a girl can dream ✨ and in the meantime I had to add this dress to the closet just in case. All links found in bio.
After three rounds of having a baby, I have figured out what is essential to pack to welcome a baby into the world and survive the fun of postpartum. The general rule is if you used it while at the hospital, it’s yours. So when you start to pack up to head home, be sure to take anything that you used that isn’t nailed down 🙂 You can take the diapers that you didn’t use, the pads and gels, the water bottles, anything! I’d love to know what you find essential to taking to the hospital to have a baby!
I have love sharing my Easter and Springtime gift ideas with you all. Here is what I shared last year and my ideas are more toy-centered gifts. This year, I have really enjoyed searching for new Easter and Spring themed gifts. I hope that either of my posts is able to give you some good ideas and help make Easter and Springtime extra special this year!
Today, I want to share my experience and thoughts on the full panel vs. side panel options and the six pairs of maternity jeans I have tried and/or own. I prefer pants with a full panel as I start to pop because they have a panel that pulls up over your belly. However, my latest favorite pair of jeans is a side panel pair, so there is that. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the pair I have, so I tried the Ingrid & Isabel pair which matched up pretty close.
However, I have decided to update that post to share more specific ideas on what families can do to keep kids busy but safe over their 2020 break. Finnen loves when I make homemade popcorn, and it is one of my long time favorite treats. Snow Globe Party– make a mason jar snow globe then turn a tent into a living snow globe, and then get comfy and watch a fun movie! Together you can spend time decorating the table, making small tea sandwiches, arranging a cookie platter, and experimenting with tea flavors by adding fun spices and fruit to regular black tea to make it tastier.
