Easy Magnetic Window Treatment

May 29, 2015

Our last apartment had this tacky paper window covers. I couldn't stand them but I was only there for a year so I wasn't wasting the time or money on it.  Our new house has a ton of windows and once the Daylight Saving Time hit we were suddenly being blinded half to death if we were anywhere near the door windows.  What you need:: an iron Heat and Bond Hem Tape Enough fabric...

I Heart Pinterest Wednesday

May 27, 2015

When we moved into our house my main love was the big kitchen. It has a great spacious layout.  However, it wasn't the original kitchen. This leaves us with an odd nook between the living room and kitchen. Many people have suggested putting the our farm house table there but there are two biggies in the way of that.  1. There is plenty of room in the kitchen for the table. Plus the...

Weekly Recap

May 26, 2015

This was supposed to go up Friday, but hopefully with school being out I can get back into a nice schedule (life included) over the summer. I received both of the new Super Sizer mascara and Intensify me! eyeliner from Covergirl to test out the other day and I was surprised how much I like them. The mascara is nice, although the bush isn't my favorite bush on the market. The eyeliner though... Oh...

Meal Pinning Monday

May 25, 2015

Today officially starts Whole 30 in our house!  I did one about two years ago (before they allowed all the potatoes on earth) without Jeremy. This time around I've talked him into it thanks to the allowance of more than sweet potatoes. Whoop whoop!    [What is Meal Pinning Monday?] MPM is how I meal plan for our little family. I once spent a lot of time searching the...

When Your Baby Belly Jiggles

May 20, 2015

Thoughts. I don't think I've had a deep one in months. I've also seen what pregnancy and a baby has done to my beloved blog. I use to have things to talk about, what happened? Lack of time happened after I went back to work. Get home at 4, put the baby down who apparently knows I'll be home after he gets up at 2:30 and doesn't go back down. Feed at 5. Feed the big people after the little person...

Baby Dedication

May 19, 2015

Mother's Day Baby Dedication service, let's just keep it at photos and no talking. I didn't have any of the pics turn out well, so I think the next investment will be a tripod and a clicker. ...

Meal Pinning Monday

May 17, 2015

Last week of work and then it's summer!    [What is Meal Pinning Monday?] MPM is how I meal plan for our little family. I once spent a lot of time searching the web and my recipe books hunting for new recipes and ideas for what to cook every week. Then, Pinterest came along and made meal planning much easier for me. Every weekend I look over what I have pinned the prior week...

a little bit of life

May 13, 2015

 This was supposed to be a Five on Friday post, but that whole exhaustion and having a baby got in the way. (Spell Check is a bust today, so don't judge the spelling errors... I typed fast) I actually celebrated Mother's Day early when Jeremy got back from Colorado. I've been watchless for about a year and told him I could use a new one, I was mainly just hoping I could convince him...

Meal Pinning Monday

Meal Pinning Monday

It's back to work for me, like it or leave it. Luckily my Dad is staying with us and it's only for 3 weeks before summer break.

So I'm going to hopefully be cooking stuff he likes for the next few weeks!   [What is Meal Pinning Monday?] MPM is how I meal plan for our little family. I once spent...

Toasted Marshmallow Ice Cream

May 1, 2015

This is going to be the end of the ice cream recipes for a bit, there has been ice cream in our freezer for over a month straight. Ain't no baby weight coming off if I keep this up! The biggest thing about homemade ice cream for Jeremy is the texture. He wants easy to scoop and cream laden, I tend towards more of an ice milk preference. That's how we made it to this recipe.  I thought...
