Like most of you I often make lists. Checking things off of them gives me small wins throughout the week, but sometimes I lose those lists or forget how hard it can be to tackle every single item with a one year old testing out his new tricks. Back in … Continue reading
Becoming green is a battle. I make my own household cleaner, use eco-friendly diapers on Oliver and eat local and organic whenever possible. But then again I probably waste more water than I should, kick myself for forgetting reusable shopping bags (often) and love a party. You might be asking … Continue reading
Oliver’s first birthday party is getting closer and closer. As you can imagine there has been a lot of perusing through Etsy and I’ve suddenly figured out everyone’s obsession with Pinterest along the way.
