We survived the prep, we sorted out the food, we finalized the decorations. So, what next? Planning the Toy Story party activities was our most favourite part of the process. We brought out the toys. We soaked in the vibrant, bold colours. We jumped in the inflatable houses. We had an all around great time! I […]
DIY Jessie Toy Story Party FOOD :: On a Budget
What’s a party without food, right? That’s our philosophy anyway. Even better, Toy Story Party Food! You can have all the decor and do all the preparation you want, but at the end of the day, those kids are looking for some good eats. Then again, if food isn’t top priority to the party planner, […]
A DIY Jessie Toy Story Party on a Budget :: DECOR
Little Mama‘s DIY Jessie Toy Story Party was ready to go after a few weeks of preparation (see our Toy Story party prep post here). We were so excited, and a little… overwhelmed. Little Mama noticed she was matching from head to toe with her decor but didn’t quite know how to process all of […]
A DIY Jessie Toy Story Party on a Budget :: PREPARATION
A Jessie Toy Story Party… On a budget. What the prep!?!? Not too long ago (okay, a million years ago… we were a little behind with this post), Little Mama turned into the not-so-little 5 year old she always dreamed of becoming. Even as a 3 year old, she kept talking about turning 5 and […]

Valentine’s Day friendship bracelets? For an entire class? In theory, Valentine’s Day greetings for school friends, is very simple.

Little Lady in Red :: Christmas at the Castle
Weeee! Apparently this Little Lady in red has a pretty exciting event to attend this Christmas holiday! It’s that time of year where we go to Big Daddy‘s “castle” for his company’s annual Family Christmas party.

Tiny Rudolph Deliveries :: Ideas for Christmas Treats
Tiny Rudolph does it again. I try to teach our Tiny Rudolph that outreach and extending gratitude is the best act of kindness that anyone can give.

Grieving Families – Fathers and Siblings Grieve too :: Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month
Grieving families. It’s something we just don’t talk enough about. Every year, when October rolls around, there’s an overall sense of melancholy that creeps up on my Facebook and Twitter newsfeeds. Many of my friends, and an abundance of facebook groups and communities I have joined, put up quotes, photos of memory boxes, tiny footprints […]

Today, is the 2nd full day of Little Mama being in kindergarten.

First Day of Kindergarten for Little Mama
It’s the first day of kindergarten for Little Mama. And she is nothing short of thrilled. But me on the other hand… I’m just… sad. Why? Because for the last 5 consecutive years, this has been my life… And now, I can barely lift her in my arms. She’s far too busy reaching her own heights. It’s first […]

5 Reasons Why We Visit Cousins Every Summer :: Vol. 34 #5Faves
I feel for my Little Mama. Sure, she’s happy, content with life overall, free of any cares in the world. But there’s something in her life that is missing – something I always had surrounding me during my entire childhood, something I wish so desperately she had in her everyday life. Cousins. She has about a gazillion […]

Living most of my adult life in California, one of my least favorite seasons of the year falls right around this week – where hints of winter, fall into spring, as we approach summer. I’m talking about… June Gloom. It’s cold. It’s hot. It’s wet. It’s dark. It’s gloomy. But let’s not sweat the small stuff. […]
5 Fave Things I Never Thought I Would Buy My 5 Year Old :: Vol. 24 #5Faves
Yes. Little Mama‘s five years old. And she’s the only child (ish). So it’s no surprise that the littlest being in our home gets the VIP treatment.
