Finding Joy in the Ordinary

  • Remembering Mom: How Día de los Muertos Became Our Family Tradition

    Remembering Mom: How Día de los Muertos Became Our Family Tradition

    I didn’t grow up celebrating Día de los Muertos. I discovered this tradition while looking for a way to remember my mom and help my children know her, too.

  • Declutter Your Fridge Door

    Declutter Your Fridge Door

    Do you have pictures, papers and magnets all over your refrigerator?   Do they start curling up after being there for a while?  Do the magnets cover your photos and get in the way? I was getting fed up with the cluttery look on my fridge.  I’ve seen some great ideas on Pinterest to use…

  • Sew a Crib Skirt

    Sew a Crib Skirt

    As I mentioned in my baby bath tub review post the other day, I finally completed Baby V’s Crib Skirt.  I purchased the fabric a month or two prior to her birth, but I just couldn’t find the energy to measure, cut, and sew. So finally in her 11th week, I took some mommy time and left…

  • Easter Hop A Long Bunny

    Easter Hop A Long Bunny

    So, I believe the story behind this Hop A Long Bunny begins with the question of which came first, finding it through Pinterest or finding it through Facebook or did I like the Facebook page because of finding it through Pinterest?  Either way I came across this great bunny and thought it would be something…

  • Object in Rearview Mirror is…Asleep: Back Seat Baby Mirror Review

    Object in Rearview Mirror is…Asleep: Back Seat Baby Mirror Review

    Since babies need to be in the back seat and rear facing in a vehicle, it makes it difficult to see what’s going on with baby girl. Is she sleeping? Is she awake? Why is she crying? Is the sun in her eyes? This is why I decided we needed something to help us see…

  • St. Patty’s Day Lovin’s for my Hubby

    St. Patty’s Day Lovin’s for my Hubby

    With a three month old baby in the house, life has definitely been turned upside down.  Lucky for me (and David), I have come across a few great websites that just might help us keep the sparks going. One such website is The Dating Divas.  Each week the Divas post a date idea (already planned…

  • Why I Use a Water Warmer and Not a Bottle Warmer: A Baby Brezza Water Kettle Review

    Why I Use a Water Warmer and Not a Bottle Warmer: A Baby Brezza Water Kettle Review

    Happy ThuRsday Review! I did my best to actually post on a ThuRsday this week, even if I am down to the wire! When I began my baby registry one of the first things my sister told me to register for was a bottle warmer.  It sounded like a good idea to me until I…

  • Rub-a-Dub-Dub: What I like about our Baby Bath Tub

    Rub-a-Dub-Dub: What I like about our Baby Bath Tub

    So…instead of working on my blog during the evenings this week I used my time to finish sewing Baby V’s crib skirt (it’s about 11 weeks late!).  Which means my ThuRsday Review didn’t get posted on ThuRsday.  Sorry! This week I decided to give a review on the baby bath tub I registered for and…

  • Cloth Wipes & Warmer Review

    Cloth Wipes & Warmer Review

    Okay, so my ThuRsday Review is being posted on Friday.  David was out of town for a few days this week so I didn’t have a chance to write and post yesterday.  Better late than never?  Here goes!  If you are a cloth diapering mommy or daddy, have you considered using cloth wipes? When I…

  • Baby Movement Monitor Review

    Baby Movement Monitor Review

    A few days after our newborn was home I suddenly became paranoid that she would stop breathing in her sleep and I wouldn’t know it. I instantly went online and reviewed the options for movement monitors and chose the Snuza Go for our little one.
