I hope you all had a good weekend! We did, even though it rained a lot and was cloudy the entire time. Except for Friday (I count that as the weekend because my weekend starts early hehe), it was pretty sunny then. It was still a good time, though. On Friday I woke the babies up early and got them…

How to Make a Paper Mache Diamondback Rattlesnake
My 10-year-old came rushing through the door after school a couple weeks ago excited to tell me about his newest school project. The kids in his class each had to choose an animal and create a 3-D figure of it. He already knew what animal he wanted to create and, after a little research on different materials he could use,…

Friday Pinterest Favorites
It’s Fri-yay!! Time to take a look at some of my favorite pins from this past week. Flying School by Life As Mama – I know Peyton and Sylas would have fun with this one. Peyton loves making things from paper, including paper airplanes. He experiments with different ways of making them, trying to figure out how to make…
Sensory Imaginative Play
My kids love water, love sensory, and love frogs. I saw a post by Fun at Home With Kids that inspired me to create this little sensory box, imaginative play for my kids.

Easy Oven Baked Green Beans
We have been working on our green bean recipe for almost 5 years now. We started buying only fresh green beans and have slowly adapted our recipe over the years. Well, a couple months ago we finally got it. They are perfect. So delicious, covered in butter (don’t judge), not too soft and not too crispy. I can never stop…
Weekend Round-Up
This weekend was pretty great. With it being Mother’s Day weekend, it was pretty relaxing for me and my hubby might have gotten me some cute gifts. 😉 So Friday was a lazy day, for sure. It was rainy and SO COLD and the babies and I just stayed in all day. We got out their instruments and we sang…
Friday Pinterest Favorites
It’s Fri-yay!! Good thing because it’s been A LONG week and I’m exhausted. I wish my husband was home from work already so we could cuddle (AKA, I fall asleep on him). JK because I still have to go shopping for Mother’s Day for my mama. I didn’t realize it was so soon (I know, that’s sad). Oops. Well, while…
Name Recognition with Caterpillar Letter Matching
We work on letters and name recognition SO MUCH. When I was working full time and my kids were with a babysitter, I felt like they were falling behind and not learning quite so much anymore. That feeling had a lot to do with me quitting my job to stay home with them. We couldn’t afford a daycare, so the…
