rustic repurposing :: DIY wood pallet projects book
I’ve been fascinated with wood pallet projects for a while. I’ve probably pinned a hundred different ideas, but I just haven’t ever gotten around to actually doing them yet!

bottle warmers, pacifiers and teethers, oh my! :: review
Strictly breast feeding is not in the books for every person. Some ladies have challenges, I, being one of them with my past newborns. With my oldest, I had to pump and feed her. This went on for 6+ months. Since having baby #4, the end of January, I have once again relied heavily on…

This shiatsu massage pillow by Zyllion is uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhmazing. I don’t have time for naps, unless I’m pregnant and then I take one every single day for 9 months. I’m not pregnant and in 2014 I have succumbed to a nap or two so far. One of those naps took me by surprise. I sat down to try…

I am not what you would consider a “save the earth” type of girl, but I do believe in common sense and saving money. Every year, billions of plastic bags are used in lunches and then tossed in the waste can. Common sense tells me, “There is a LOT of plastic floating around out there and…
send summer out with a bang with zing toys :: review
Here in Michigan, fall snuck up on us this week. Tuesday, shorts and sundresses; Wednesday, jeans and sweatshirts. Such is life in the Midwest, I guess. This, of course, does not stop my little munchkins from wanting to spend every minute after school playing outside. But with summer coming to a close, their outdoor longevity…

the little boy i’m still thinking about…
I got up at 2:30 am. Not the time I wanted to get up, but a malfunction in an alarm clock had me up, wide awake. Awake because I was to fly home that day to see my little ladies after being gone for four days. Anxious, nervous, tired, sick to my stomach due to…
