Five weeks ago I welcomed my fifth baby to my family. That still blows my mind–five kids!! It feels like a circus at my house. I want to say I love every second of it, but let’s be real. I have five kids and one of them is a newborn. It has been hard. I…

Random Acts of Kindness Ideas
So we just celebrated the well-known holiday of showing and sharing love–Valentine’s Day. But did you know that February 17th is Random Acts of Kindness Day? We decided as a family to spend an afternoon doing some random acts of service for people and I just love the feeling we get from doing it. Service…
New Year’s Resolutions: My Word for 2018
2018 is here. I usually gear up in a big way for the new year, bright-eyed and bushy tailed, with new year’s resolutions up the wazoo. This year is the first year that I haven’t felt a need for new year’s resolutions. And I think it’s because throughout the past year or so I have…
Top 5 Coolest Places I Want to Live
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of CORT. All opinions are 100% mine. Schedule I’ve been thinking a lot lately about what it would be like to live in other places. The problem is always the same when it comes to travel…time and money. Can you get the time off work?…

Three Makeup Tips to Fight ALLERGY FACE®
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of ZYRTEC®. I’m not a super fancy girl. Most of the time I’m covered in paint and sawdust. But when I go out, I try to look decent–meaning I actually do my hair and makeup. This year I wanted to try to do more with…
Spread Love, Ditch Negativity
The internet has been kind of hurtful lately. In the space of the last week or two, I have been the victim of many different rude and negative comments. I’ve been blogging for over four years, but it never really gets any easier for me to receive negative comments. I take them way too personally,…
My Trip to Leapfrog
I’ve been working with Leapfrog for a couple of years now. We love their products and have enjoyed reviewing them. So I was super excited when Leapfrog invited me and four other bloggers out to visit their headquarters in San Francisco! It was my first official ‘business’ trip (if you don’t count blog conferences) and…
Goals for 2014
Whew–I just took two weeks off blogging and it was awesome. My husband also had the two weeks off so we just got to spend all day together, amidst suffering through the World’s Longest Cold, which I still have a little bit of. So happy new year! 2014 is going to be a great year….
Ten Great Audio Books to Read
Anyone who knows me knows that I pretty much read exclusively by audio books. I don’t even remember the last time I made it entirely through a regular book. Every time I try to read them, I fall asleep within about ten minutes and/or get interrupted by someone (*cough cough KIDS cough cough*). I have…
A Snowy Day in Hell
I had the best intentions of showing you this really cute and fun Valentines craft today but instead of spending the afternoon working and photographing it, I spent the afternoon crying and rocking in the corner, clutching my knees. Okay, not really, but that’s what I felt like doing inside. Let me share a story…
