Halloween is a big deal around here. Our house is festively decorated from the first weekend in October and there isn't any detail that's left out. My girls love the whimsy as well as the creepier decor for Halloween, while my favorite is the table decor. Since October is my favorite month, as well as the month my hubby and I met and then got married, there is always a nice floral arrangement in my foyer. Usually my husband comes home ...

You simply cannot bake dessert and cook dinner at the same temperatures, but having two ovens isn't always an option either. When we revamped my summer kitchen, we opted for a double oven due to it's ...
PJ Masks are On The Way to Halloween!
Halloween is a little over two weeks away and "Miss. Indecisive" AKA my middle child, has gone from wanting to be a super hero to being a princess, then back to a superhero. She fears that being a superhero makes her look like a boy, but I've assured her MANY times that it doesn't, and that girls can be superheroes too. It took a lot of convincing and I wasn't quite sure I got my point across because my stubborn little girl wasn't having it. Then ...

What Car Seats Should You Use for Air Travel?
We've gotten quite comfortable traveling by car with our three kids 7 and under. We always make it a point to be in a family friendly area that offers late access to drug stores if someone gets sick, a variety of meal options for our pickiest eaters, and stores where we can pick up our last minute essentials. We have it down to a science at this point, but when it comes to traveling by plane a lot more thought has to be put into it. Do ...
Welcome, BobOSweep!
The idea of a robotic vacuum seemed silly to me when companies started launching them. I mean, how effective could they possibly be, and how easy would it be to miss spots? With a baby in the house and two older girls who seem to drop 80% of their food on the floor in the form of crumbs, I needed something that would be my special little helper. That's when we brought Bob into our home and set him up in our large living room. This room shares a ...
Celebrate Autumn with a Pumpkin Patch Cupcake Recipe!
I love the fall. I met my husband in the fall, we had our wedding in the fall, and even had an almost-fall baby. Fall is cozy, and cool - the perfect time to get outside and take family photos, drink apple cider, go pumpkin picking, and make memories. On days we can't get out, you can find us thinking up yummy treats that reflect the season, like these adorable Pumpkin Patch cupcakes. Kids will love helping out.. and eating these delicious ...
Yo-kai Watch: The Movie Limited Engagement 10/15/16!
A few months ago I didn't know what Yo-kai Watch was. Thankfully I have a second grader who is very into her Nintendo DS games and watches Disney XD, so she enlightened me on the game and the upcoming movie. I have to be honest, I still don't quite understand it but the kids love it and that's all that really matters when it comes to kid's shows. The most surprising thing is that the Yo-kai Watch movie will only be in theaters ONE day! ...
