Whilst shopping a few weeks ago after a long and tiring day of running errands with kiddos, my husband and I made a quick stop to our local grocery store to pick up a few things. I was tired and I’ll admit it, a little cranky. The kiddos had been rather trying and I was hungry and… Continue reading I think my brain is fried! And an answer to prayer.
Okay, I know there have been many posts written recently on the topic of living without toys. This post here on CleanHouseWithKids is the post in particular that inspired me to actually take the step of getting rid of almost all toys. I’d been thinking about it for months but Tricia’s blog post about her family’s own experience gave me the needed… Continue reading Our (mostly) Toy-less household!
Today is going to be insanely busy for me. We’re in the midst of preparing for a trip to meet with some Eye Doctors to try to fix my husbands genetic eye disease. I haven’t mentioned that on here before and I’m not really sure if I’m ever going to talk about it more. It’s all very complicated and we’re in the middle… Continue reading Happy Monday!
It’s our little girl, Meghan Wardle’s birthday today! I know it’s cliché but this little sweetheart has added so much to our family since the day she was born four years ago.

The day before Christmas, yep, Christmas Eve, I finally got to work on a nightgown for my little Pearl. To say I was cutting it close is an understatement. 😉 I used a vintage pattern and everything went swimmingly well until I got to the part where I’m supposed to attach the collar. For whatever reason,… Continue reading In the sewing room…
Sorry I’ve been absent so long but life has thrown us a curveball lately. My husband and I came down with some kind of cold/flu the end of November right after Thanksgiving. It’s been an up and down rollercoaster ride of starting to feel better, getting sick again, feeling better, another relapse and so on. At this point… Continue reading Mini update….
