Are you a morning person? You would think being a mom I would be a morning person but I am far from it. I would rather stay up late watching TV than be up with the sun. But, with that being said; I would definitely make sure to get up in the early morning toContinue reading “GÖKOTTA”

Winter
Is it just me or does anyone else feel like winter this season is never ending?! I have been loving the beautiful scenery around my house this season but I am TOTALLY over these winter weather advisories we have been having. From 6-8″ of snow over night one time to below zero temps without theContinue reading “Winter”
2020
Dear 2020, With such a crazy, upside down year; where do I begin? I guess, I will just say thank you. Thank you for more family time, for the small moments, and for helping us see that those moments are the most important.

I received some as gifts, a few as samples in the mail, and I bought the famous green Philips Avent Soothie. I felt I was prepared, with a range of different kinds, in the event my babyContinue reading “Good Bye to the beloved Pacifier”
#MomHack
Summer activities means breaking out a sunscreen routine. My daughter, for 2.5 years old, is pretty good at knowing she needs sunscreen before we play outside. I tell her to go sit on the bench in our entryway and she goes all excited knowing she gets to play outside. Then we start the 5-8ish minutesContinue reading “#MomHack”
My Top 5 Uses for Reusable Bags
When grocery shopping, I used to always request paper bags when available because those plastic bags are my archnemesis. A big plastic bag filled with smaller ones sits in my garage that I grab once in a while and recycle at one of my local stores. Thankfully, that big bag of plastic has been smallerContinue reading “My Top 5 Uses for Reusable Bags”
How I stay on top of cleaning
This saying could not be more accurate. I only have 1 child but I feel like I am constantly picking up something every time I turn around. This past year, we moved from a 2 story house with no storage, aside from the attic, to a 3 story house with storage available on every floor!Continue reading “How I stay on top of cleaning”
