We are Disney-bound soon. (we love us some Disneyland!) anywho-since Ava and Rory had star wars tees, and then Charlotte got one for her birthday from a friend who knew how much I loved them....Sadie and I just had to join the fray and get some star wars shirts! The bummer thing is, there aren't a lot of cute girl star wars tees. especially for … [Read more...]
flutter sleeve dresses
July 16, 2014 By 17 Comments
So Ava needs some new dresses-the hand me downs she has are either getting small, kinda worn out since they've been through two girls already, or, I'm sick of looking at them. haha! probably more of the latter going on if I'm being honest. Who doesn't like something fresh and new to wear once in awhile? It's good for ya. So I wanted to make … [Read more...]

I finally am ready to share the playroom makeover with you all! I am so excited about it-it's my new favorite room to hang out in, which is handy, cause the kids kinda like it too. What are the ODDS? I wanted it to be cute and quirky-playful, of course, with a touch of elegance. I had some quirks I had to work with, as this is an add-on sunroom, … [Read more...]

Happy Fourth of July to all the Americans out there! Hope you have a safe and awesome holiday! This year I actually remembered to get something together for the girls to wear...(and lately I'm into them matching...what?!) so they got easy peasy circle skirts-out of knit, so no hemming!

knit pajama shorts

It's SUMMERTIME! I'm sure you were aware of that, but just in case.... the kids need PJ shorts. It's been a bit dire-especially for Ava. I chopped off the arms and legs of a pair of PJ's the other night because it was SO hot and she didn't have any short sleeved sets. Rory was like "dudette, you need to buy them some shorts". and I was … [Read more...]

If you follow me on Instagram, you've seen that I've been working on my playroom-which is really an attached sunroom off of our living room. We've been in this house 6 years and still never framed out the door or finished painting or adding baseboards. for shame! It's been an eyesore (in my opinion, ha!) so I finally poked and prodded Rory into … [Read more...]
