Christmas is right around the corner and if you’re like me, you’re well intentioned but the gifts aren’t quite ready to be wrapped. As much as I love the idea of Christmas gifting, I don’t always get them ordered as quickly as I planned back in November. Need ideas? We’ve got you covered. This year…
A gentle glide of the rocker, a soft glow of a warm light, and the relaxing aroma of lavender or gentle baby piping through the air. That’s pretty close to the sweetest place to be with nursing babe or a snuggly kiddo. Pair those things with a good play on words, a gentle giant, and…
I’ve shared before my boy’s love of trains and our recent trip to see Thomas the Train. We stop and look at trains, we have 2 basic wooden train sets, we rode on trains many times! Our boy just loves trains! Thanks to TOMY we were able to their brand new motorized train track a…
If you are anything like us, you’ve found yourself with too many toys that simply take up space and never get played with. It’s easy to accumulate a lot of toys that serve no real purpose in your home other than they were gifted and forgotten. I’m especially over toys that a) consume an insane…

I shared here about our Board Book box (for ages 0-3) and our Picture Book boxes (for ages 3-6). We were super impressed by the presentation of the boxes – each…
Thanks to our friends at Tyndale, we had the opportunity to receive the The Character Builder’s Bible written by Agnes de Bezenac and Salem de Bezenac to read and review. We’ve had it for over a month and it’s easily one of our favorite bible books right now. We’ve read a lot of books that are based around…
The stores have been filled with school supply sections for over a month now. It felt like summer just greeted us as it’s already time to say hello to Fall. My social media feeds slowing down on posts showing summer fun and they’re being replaced with first day of school photos. No matter if you…
Reading is a cornerstone of our home. Having children that loved to read was something we hoped would happen and I’m lucky to say that’s exactly what happened.
