I am SO excited to share this fun way to make an easy Easter bunny cake with your kids. This cake is a family tradition for me. Every Easter I used to make this with my mom and sister. I love that my kids are now old enough to take part and make it with me. We started making it when the kids were 2. My son ate about half the candy, but I made sure I had plenty of extra! First up – the cake. Bake the cake mix in two circle pans. We usually buy a pre-made white cake mix but I had lots of  flour, sugar, and butter so we made our own using a recipe I found online. Second – transfer one of th ..read more

I can’t even believe I’m writing this blog post right now, but we ARE pregnant again! Are we crazy? MAYBE. Will life be even more crazy. FOR SURE. But there will be so much love! First things first – this pic. I expected our announcement would be one with all smiles but nope. For some reason London started crying and then Boston saw she was crying so he started crying. Meanwhile, me, my husband, and the photographer are all laughing because this really couldn’t get any better. Boston may be upset about not being the baby anymore, but London is VERY excited about a baby joining the fam. If y ..read more

There I said it. It’s okay if this Christmas isn’t perfect, or magical, or live up to your dreams this year. Christmas 2020 looks different for many of us than year’s past and it’s okay to feel sad. For me, I’m missing my parents. They aren’t traveling because of COVID. I know many are probably in the same boat, or even dealing with a family member who is sick with COVID and may not be there on Christmas day. It’s okay to feel sad, but I hope you join me in trying to make the most of it. I’ll tell you how I plan on doing that later in this blog post. But first, this picture. My mom took t ..read more

I love a good family Christmas tree farm pic! We’ve done them for the past 4 years and I’m never disappointed.

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Heroes Vacation Club. All opinions are 100% mine. OMG!!!!! WE ARE GOING TO DISNEY WORLD!!!! I seriously can’t believe it. I have been dreaming about the day the kids were old enough to take to Disney. I wanted to make sure neither of them still had to nap, so we could fully enjoy every second of it. I mean Savanna is only 5 months, so she will for sure be napping, but London is 5 and Boston 4, so they will be running around like maniacs. So, here is the deal. First, I need ALL OF YOUR DISNEY TIPS!! Please comment below or send me a message o ..read more

  As things wind down, and with this pregnancy being my last, I did a few things a little differently this time around. It made my pregnancy much more enjoyable and I wanted to share in case it helps out another mama to be. First, I only bought about 10 maternity outfits. I shopped at Pink Blush Maternity, Target, and Motherhood Maternity. My favorite leggings, tank tops, and stretchy sleepwear came from Motherhood Maternity. The rest of what I’ve worn are things I already had in my closet or non-maternity clothes that I can continue to wear after baby. Pink Lily has a lot of great dress ..read more
