One of our favorite items when going out to eat at Mexican Restaurants (and Cheesecake Factory) are sweet corn cakes. My family absolutely loves this decadent side dish. I have been trying for a few years to find a recipe to recreate it at home and I finally found one that works (with adjustments). I …

We are really blessed in our house to have the space for a playroom. It’s a first floor master bedroom with a bathroom and small walk-in closet. Since we wanted to be on the same floor as Carl, we opted to stay upstairs. The only problem with our playroom is that it is completely bare …

For those of you that missed my post the other day, I have shared with you a Pottery Barn Knock-off for their typewriter key prints. The other day I shared with you the full alphabet. Today, I am sharing with you numbers 0-9, and 4 symbols (question mark, ampersand, at, and the dollar symbol). As I …

If I was given one store to buy everything for my house, it would all be from Pottery Barn. Unfortunately, we would be totally broke and have nowhere to put all of our pretty new furnishings. While their items are beautiful, oftentimes they are too expensive for our budget. Since our dining room table would …

Carl loves Lambie from DocMcstuffins. I think that I am actually more into the show than he is (I think it’s adorable!) My Mom bought him a Doc McStuffins Flap book and he is obsessed with finding the characters. His favorites are Lambie and Hallie so I was excited to make this snack for him. …

I don’t know about you, but when it comes time to make food for someone in need, I always end up making the same thing: baked ziti. I just made a batch for my neighbors who were moving (so they could focus on the packing rather than cooking). I decided the next time I make …

I love Nurseries and little kids’ rooms – I think they are so much fun to decorate. I find myself looking at and pinning ideas for our nonexistent other children. About a year ago, my Mom asked me to create some prints for her friend who was designing an adorable nursery in gray, lime green, …

I despise stinky Sippy cups. Carl started to use a Sippy cup for water at about 8 months. Cleaning the cup just took some soap and water. But then, we introduced milk. Dirty Sippy cups soon became my enemy. I couldn’t believe the smell milk created in a Sippy cup. I told my husband that …

I haven’t been as creative with Carl’s food lately. He’s super picky so it makes it really hard. On the other hand, he is so much more excited now by cutesy foods so maybe it will encourage him to try new things! This cute kids snack is super easy. This would be perfect for a …

Have you ever seen Skip Hop’s Treetop Friends collection? It is adorable! It looks like this: Last year, a family friend was having a baby and planning a sweet nursery filled with a few Treetop Friends items (see the prints I made for her here). It’s the perfect theme for gender-neutral nurseries and parties. Not …
