I had a light bulb moment this week, and it struck me that I need to step back and just let my babies be little. I’ve recently been researching early potty training, and I had this great plan to have Corbin and Lynley introduced to the potty and beginning training at 18 months. My intentions […]
{How to} Pain-free Earrings for Babies
Earrings might be one of my favorite accessories, especially for little girls. It’s right up there with necklaces, but since Lynley is not quite old enough to wear necklaces without choking herself or giving herself welts from pulling on them, necklaces are out of the picture (except of course her teething necklace)! Earrings are the […]
Pass the sponge, please!
With “toddlerdom” looming in our household, it has become challenging to keep the twin messes to a minimum. I’ve blogged about my difficulty in letting C and L self-feed before due to messiness, but they’ve since gotten the hang of finger foods, and are actually pretty neat eaters. That is, until we started introducing mealtime […]
15 month update
15 months, did I just write that!?! My, oh my, how they’ve grown. Can you believe that my little preemies are keeping up with their peers and surpassing them developmentally in some areas? I’m just in awe of how amazing God’s miracles are. If you’re not a believer in miracles, just read our story. Corbin […]
Having Fun at the Park with twins + A Giveaway!
Sunday was unseasonably warm in Austin, and we decided to take Corbin and Lynley on a picnic after church. Our neighborhood has a few play centers, but none of them have swing sets. This has been disappointing because the twins can’t really climb and play on slides or jungle gyms without getting hurt yet, and […]
Bring Life to Your Laundry Room {FREE Printables}
Call me crazy, but I decided to overhaul my laundry room! The bare white walls and ugly brown curtain made me want to run away every time I entered. Laundry is my nemesis. I’ve blogged about our hate/hate relationship before. I just can’t seem to get a handle on it, EVER. Often times, okay all […]
I am MOM, Hear Me Roar
How often do you get asked what you do for a living? It’s a common conversation starter, and since deciding to leave my career to stay home with my twins, it’s something I’ve felt insecure about answering. But not anymore, and you shouldn’t either! Society has a funny way of making us stay-at-home moms […]
How to Create a Fun Date Night IN
As parents of small children, it’s extremely difficult for Derrick and I to find the time- or the energy- to go out. We typically spend our evenings in front of our computers, or me in front of the television watching really bad made-for-tv movies. We’ve made it a goal in 2014 to start calling a […]
Wordless Wednesday: Tea time!
Happy New Year! We’re still thoroughly enjoying our new Christmas toys over here. Lynley and Corbin both love the tea set that Santa brought Lynley, and we can’t get them to play with anything else! Corbin ignores the balls and golf set and goes straight for the teacups! It’s hilarious. We let him play, but […]
Corbin’s First Haircut + Our Nuby Grooming Set
We finally did it! During our Christmas vacation, we took Corbin to get his first haircut! It was such a bittersweet occasion, as I watched my baby boy’s wavy blonde hair hit the floor. Within ten minutes, he went from looking like a precious baby to resembling a strikingly handsome little boy! I thought I […]
