The Winter Running Doldrums

I received a shirt from Allied Shirts to review, but all opinions are my own.

Y’all, the winter blahs have set in. It’s cold (SO COLD). It’s dry, it’s sometimes snowy, sometimes windy.

Who’s idea was it to run a half marathon in January?!

Oh yeah. MINE.

But it’ll be fine, because it’s in Disney World, […]

There’s (another) Short Person In My House. #iPPP

Last week, I mentioned that Ivy wanted an elf sent to our house. You know, from the North Pole. In years past, I’ve been so very against having an elf. I mean, we already have to plan at least two solid weeks of traveling, buy and wrap all the presents, […]

Project 365 (Weeks 48-49)

So, I was really busy and tired this weekend and I didn’t get to posting last week’s Project 365. Here are both!

Nov. 24

Ivy had her second basketball game, and Henry, Essie, and I (along with my parents) were her cheering squad.

Nov. 25

It got cold for a while. Thank goodness for […]

The Annual Family Pictures (and a #Giveaway)

I was given a canvas from Signazon to review, but I did not receive compensation and all opinions are 100% my own. I promise you don’t want to miss the giveaway at the bottom, or some family pictures that I think are pretty darn cute.

This year, I didn’t have the […]

My #JamberryChallenge

I have a good friend, Amanda of It’s Blogworthy, that has been a huge support of my Leukemia and Lymphoma Society fundraiser this fall, and is a Florida, full-time working mama to one boy and one girl (on the way). Anyway, she’s a rep for Jamberry nails, which I was […]

Christmas Conversations. #iPPP

The other day, Erv and I were in the car, driving to pick up Essie from preschool. He found a puffy Santa sticker in the backseat.

Me: Is that Santa?

Him: No! It’s Fanta Clause.

Me: Is Santa Clause going to come to our house on Christmas and bring some presents?

Him: Yeah.

Me: What […]

Happy Thanksgiving from the Warm Snugglies. #iPPP

It’s almost Thanksgiving here in the States! Here are some things I’m thankful for:
1. Pinterest. With the need to stay home and make our own gluten free Thanksgiving dinner, this is where I go to find all things gluten free and Thanksgiving-related.

2. A home that’s warm and full of chaos, […]

Project 365 (Week 47)

If last week was nice and warm, this week was brutally cold. It made it hard to want to leave the house, you know?

Nov. 17

Ivy had her first basketball game. Then when the big three went to bed, and the one who still naps got into his sister’s lip gloss.

Nov. […]

I Like To Move It.

I recently said that I don’t like to get down on the floor and play with my kids. But, there are things I love to do with them….I love jumping on the trampoline, I love cranking up the radio and shaking some booty when we’re cleaning or cooking, and I […]

First Grade Hoops #iPPP

Ivy joined a basketball team, and because of some miscommunication, she had one practice before her first game last Sunday. Her team is made up of a group of her first grade friends, so she’s having a lot of fun so far.

But she’s small, and because she had only gone […]
