As many of you know, my family and I are expecting baby number three in just a few short weeks. As I take some time off from work and blogging to spend time with my family both before and after my new son’s birth, I am thrilled to share with you some amazing posts written […]
Superheroes In Speech! {And at Home}
Little boys. They love superheroes. This hasn’t hit in our house yet. My little guy is only 20 months and is currently obsessed with trucks (gucks), cars (gucks), and trains (gucks). And my daughter has been obsessed with princesses since she could say “princess” so needless to say we don’t have any superhero paraphernalia around […]

The Night Before St. Patrick’s Day: Make a Leprechaun Trap!

Freebie Friday: St. Patrick’s Day Ideas
Well…it’s Freebie Friday and I actually didn’t make a freebie this week. Life has been busy here and I have been, well, uninspired! I do have a project in the works but it is a bigger project so it won’t be ready any time soon. So what I decided to do is share a few […]
Fine Motor Monday
It’s been a few weeks since I posted about what we have been doing around here for fine motor practice. We haven’t done nearly as much as I had wanted to or that I had planned…I need about 5 extra hours a day! HA! If you are new, one reason we do so much fine […]
We’re Building Snowmen Over Here!

Jessica over at Preserving Life’s Memories shared this adorable Felt […]
