A little love for my biggest love – featuring Colored Organics
It is really important to me to spend time with each of my three children together and individually. Nolan and I recently had the chance to go on a little “date” to pick up a few crafts to do at home and went out to dinner just the two of us. This doesn’t happen as often as I’d like but I am hoping to get better with having a schedule that shows me when I do make individualized time with them. Nolan blows my mind every time I look at him. He is growing by leaps and bounds and I feel like he is catching up to how tall I…

Our Evolving Playroom
I look back at the evolution of this little room and it’s actually quite amazing how much it has transformed over the last five years. When we first moved into this home, Derrek turned this into his office with a glass desk and a love seat but it never felt like an office. The office furniture didn’t “fit” into the space and when Nolan turned six months old, we took that furniture out and made it a playroom for him. Of course, at that time we didn’t have a large income and his playroom consisted of a few hand me down toys, bright colored playmat from Walmart and a little…

Our Learning Space Made Fabulous By Plush Rugs
This post has been sponsored by Plush Rugs. I was given this product in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. This summer, I decided that I wanted to do more crafts and activities with my littles. Pinterest has been very helpful with fun crafts and projects for the kids to do while we are at home or outdoors exploring. I also found that the front section (the dollar section) at Target has tons of great work books and educational games for children right now. I follow a Montessori style learning when it comes to the children. Montessori is a…

My “Why”
A few years ago I began my journey into a more natural life, and one of the ways I started this was by changing my makeup routine. I threw away all of my drug store Maybelline, Cover Girl and even my beloved Clinique products. I did so visiting the Environmental Working Group website and flipping out over how toxic the ingredients were that I was applying to my skin daily! The Skin Deep database is a great online resource that lists the chemical ingredients of thousands of products, and highlights a few of the worst on the list. Be aware that even the Environmental Working Group cautions against jumping to conclusions about…
