in Home Decor, Lifestyle on 23/10/18

It’s been almost two years since I set up my daughter’s bedroom.  While I have to admit, I still love her room, I think I should have put a little more thought into the details before I went all out.  While its true my daughter’s favorite color is pink, I feel like her room is a bit overwhelming.  I’m currently… View Post

in Mom Life, Motherhood, Style, Women's Fasion on 08/10/18

With both my younger children now in school, mornings tend to get a little crazy around here.  Between getting the kids ready, feeding them breakfast and making sure they have everything they need for the day (like school lunches), there isn’t much time for me to get drop off ready.
