I know a lot of you are experts on getting your kids to help out around the house. But I have to admit, I am not one of those people! This year, our family is trying a new method to get kids on board with chores. It is based on the book Cleaning House :…
Sunday has always been my day to plan out the week with food, sitting down with my calendar, and making goals for the upcoming week. I used to do minimal prep on Sunday for food, but I’d make sure I had what I needed for the “menu” I had planned out for dinners, and would…
It’s the dead of winter here in Michigan (and the rest of the country.) Except you, South Florida, we see you and all your sandy beaches! So, what’s a girl to do when surrounded by frigid temps and frozen tundra? Besides binge watching Netflix and eating far too many carbs, my choices usually involve reorganizing…
Almost three weeks in to those New Year’s Resolutions… how well are you keeping on track? I’ve found that keeping a written record seems to help me stay accountable to myself with how I’m actually doing with my goals.

Well, a new year has come and it is once again that season where we all take stock of our lives and make new goals, resolutions, and better habits. While some goals seem very attainable (potty training for my 2 year old is coming along wonderfully!) others – such as eating healthier as a family,…
With 2018 knocking on the door I have decided that I need to get serious about potty training our toddler this coming year. With our first two kiddos I was potty training as soon as they showed ANY signs of readiness but, as with most things for the third child, potty training and attention to…
I’m lucky enough to be able to check out all kinds of fun things all year long. I share most of them with you and today I’m sharing a few of my favorite things I’ve reviewed this year. None of these companies have paid for this post in any way–I’m just sharing some things I…
You may be unknowingly neglecting the one space in your home that offers limitless possibilities: the basement. With its wide layout and raw ambience, it’s like having a blank canvas waiting for beautification and revamp. From playroom to living area, this drab chamber will challenge your creativity and resourcefulness the moment you decide on transforming…
It’s not every day I use the word favorite. But when I find a gift that seems to be a hit with everyone, I have to share. Admittedly, I’ve shared Nora Fleming with you many times (here, here and here–along with My Favorite Things posts), but sometimes it’s worth revisiting a favorite! If you haven’t seen…
