I’m sure if Miss L saw this playhouse, she’d feel right at home. I mean, what child doesn’t need a Hawaiian themed playhouse to go with their Hawaiian themed room?
And I know what you’re thinking, but yes, this is an ACTUAL playhouse! The “Little Diamond Head” playhouse was built for
We started discussing the “what” of our holiday cards a few nights ago. Sure, we’re not crazy enough to have already posed for our perfect family photo with our favorite photographer while dressed in our color coordinated ensembles just yet… but what we’re planning is probably just as silly and fun. (hint: here was [...]
Happy Halloween everyone!
For yet another year (see 2010’s iteration here) we chose a “family” costume for this year’s October 31st festivities. Can you guess what we were from the photo of our handmade costume pieces below??
We were the Tweedles (Dee & Dum) and Alice in [...]
They say that toddlers absorb everything around them. And then they mimic what they’ve seen done as if you laid out the instructions for them step by step. First, it was Miss L grabbing a purse (mine, one of hers, one at daycare), putting it on her shoulder and saying/waving, “Bye!” Then it was playing [...]
I’ll admit I lost my love for Polyvore right at about the time I gave up fashion blogs (short story: normal clothes don’t fit me, so why lust after things you can’t wear)… but I think my passion has been reignited with these wonderfully fun creations by Leslie from DisneyBound.
How much fun [...]
Excuse me for the small amount of text that will appear in this blog post. My right hand is suffering from clicker-hand… which is very similar to Wii-bow but just simply comes from smashing too many buttons with too much passion on a game controller.
Last week I asked for advice on a new video [...]
For Christmas, I got my own superhero to protect me when Mr. M was away. It was a POP! Superman. He was cute and little and just the sort of fun collectible gift we like to exchange. Then, just today, they released their Disney collection at the Disney Store online. I [...]
Last night, Miss L and I had a “girls night” together just laughing and playing and giggling through dinner and bedtime. The current nighttime (and non-bath night) routine is as follows: playing, dinner, downtime with TV/movie (10-15 min), change into PJs, read books/drink milk, brush teeth, cuddletime and then snuggles down into the crib.
Well, [...]
Our best laid Easter plans went awry due to sickness and allergies… but at least the sun was shining in the house! Hope you and your family had a wonderful Easter as well!
A few months ago, I thought that someone’s iphone alarm was going off in a nearby office…
“Quack quack quack!” “Quack quack quack!”
But then I heard one single, “QUACK!” And that’s not how the lovely iphone alarm plays…
So I flipped around in my chair to look out my window and saw that the [...]
Today (Friday December 3rd), Amazon.com has marked many of its Melissa & Doug wooden toys down 50%! If you’re in need of some kid gift giving this holiday season, I will encourage to click over to the site NOW because toys don’t get much better than this! Almost all of them have been [...]
I went to Disneyland last September and despite my belly beginning to pop out and my “baby brain” being fully activated, I resisted all baby-item purchases with the exception of one item: a black knit infant Mickey Mouse hat by Trumpette. It was basic, uni-sex, and just so darn [...]
