We’re diving into essential oils! So far, I am loving it. But, only because I found a brand that has taken all of the hassle out of it. I’m a mom of toddler twins and an infant, so the idea of mixing and measuring and diluting oils has never appealed to me. Oilogic has done […]
I am a proud mom of twins, plus one. I welcomed our new baby daughter in September, and since that time life has been full of ups and downs. Thankfully, more ups since my type A personality (that’s putting it nicely) made sure to prepare my twins for a new baby. I can’t say it […]
Welcome to our new site! I am in love with the makeover of Spit and Sparkles by the lovely Becca at Jumping Jax Designs. Thank you all for being patient while the site was down. I’m looking forward to posting lots of new material and sharing what’s happening in Corbin and Lynley’s lives. Hey, did […]
It’s been awhile…. I can’t honestly say that I missed this little blog. I missed my blogger friends and my readers, but what a refreshing break it’s been during the last couple of months to not write blog posts regularly. I’ve been going through a bit of a burnout, and I’m finally feeling better. Have […]
Horn went beep. Engine purred. Corbin and Lynley are two, haven’t you heard? We absolutely loved everything about our Trucks and Teacups second birthday. The theme was so much fun, especially because the twins were really into it. We read the book Little Blue Truck about a million times leading up to this party, and […]
Last weekend, we celebrated Corbin and Lynley’s second birthday. (A post about that coming soon!) It was a wonderful day with our families, friends and neighbors, but it still zipped by just a bit too fast for me. Something happens at age two. The little babies that needed mama for everything drift a little farther […]
Hats off to the working moms! It’s a lot harder than I expected. I thought that I wanted to return to my career after a two-year maternity break, but I’m learning more each day that I’m not quite ready. I am in a unique position. I have been blessed with the choice to either work […]
What does happiness mean to you? My husband always says that happiness is a choice- to be satisfied with what you have, to be kind, to love and let others love you. I think in this instance, (which doesn’t happen very often!) he is right! I believe that happiness happens in ordinary, every day moments. […]
This is absolutely one of my favorite children’s books. If You Give A Mouse A Cookie is a classic written by Laura Numeroff. I bought our copy of the book before the babies were born, and since then I have fallen in love with the series. We have Happy Valentine’s Day Mouse, Happy Easter Mouse […]
Yay for summer! It’s not really anything different for us right now since Corbin and Lynley don’t go to school yet, but there is something about summer that just makes you want to get out and do things. Since the babies are a bit older and can communicate and follow directions better, we are actually […]
