I feel like a broken record at this point - but with another month, came another round of sickness for my kiddos. It feels like it’s never going to end! But we also had a beautiful Easter weekend and celebrated Ainsley’s 2nd birthday with our family.

Read MoreGoodness, February sure was a doozy! My daughter was sick from an allergic reaction to an antibiotic that she was taking, and that week of symptoms felt like an entire month itself and then ended with both my daughter and my husband getting a stomach bug. So like I said… it was a doozy of a month! Despite feeling like half of the month had me down in a hole taking care of the kids, there were still some fun and sweet moments throughout February and a few favorite things that we really enjoyed!

Read MoreIt’s been a while since I’ve shared some of my favorite finds, but the start of a new year felt like a good time to jump back in! It feels like January was a never-ending month with the end of the holiday season, the super cold weather, several snow days, and a couple of rounds of sickness in our house. We also had our SUV parked out front of our house and it got hit by a police car (crazy story!), which resulted in it being a write-off from insurance and needing to do some car shopping. But it was also my birthday month and feels like we ended the month with a lot of really fun memories as a family.

Read MoreHow is September already over?! I seriously felt like this month flew by. We had a lot of fun adventures this month - finally decorating for all, we went to the zoo with my sisters, saw animals and ate yummy food at the Ephrata Fair, and Eric and I ended the month with a trip to Baltimore, MD for our 7th Anniversary!

Read MoreAugust was not an overly exciting month for us - I had surgery at the end of July and was required to be off my foot for nearly 4 weeks - almost the entirety of August, stuck at home or only short trips since I couldn’t walk a lot. But the end of August, when I was able to start walking around again, we visited the Baltimore Orioles for a day game, and the kids ended the month with some sickness - not fun!

Read MoreHow is it already the end of July?! The summer feels like it has completely flown by and I never got around to sharing my favorite things last month, so I’m rolling them all into one post for June & July - honestly, we had a lot of favorite things these past few months, that it was hard to narrow it down to just 12 - I easily could have done a separate post for each month! We had some new favorite finds from our beach vacation, a few new items for around our home (both indoors & outdoors), and must-haves for the kids.

Read MoreWhat a busy month we’ve had! We were surrounded by sickness for a lot of the month before and after Mother’s Day, but we still had some special family moments as well! We’ve been enjoying the warmer weather and spending time in our backyard, our front porch, and walks around the blocks near our house. A lot of these favorite finds will be reflected in the time we spent cleaning up around the house when we were sick, and the time we have been spending outside in the gorgeous summer weather!

Read MoreIt’s baby month… and she’ll be here so soon! I feel like I could have filled this post with all of my favorite maternity finds and items that I’ve been gathering to prep for baby girl’s arrival, but I’ll be sharing more of that in future baby-related posts! :) So I’m sharing a few spring finds, some organizing favorites, and a few other household items that we’ve been loving this month!
Read MoreThis month included some favorite finds for Valentine’s Day, but mostly has been about getting some spaces in our house ready for Baby Girl’s arrival at the end of March! I moved my vanity from our bedroom to spare room that serves as a walk-in closet, started to move some baby items that we already own into a corner of our bedroom, and our new sectional couch arrived and got put together in our living room! I’ll be sharing more about our new couch and our baby nursery corner in our room in future posts.
Read MoreIt’s a new year of favorite finds! Most of my favorite things came in the form of birthday gifts this month - lots of clothing and accessories for keeping warm in these cold winter months!
Read MoreIt’s no secret that I really love cozy and warm sweaters and outfits in the wintertime. Cozy sweaters, cozy loungewear and pajamas, cozy slippers. So I’ve rounded up a few cozy favorites from Amazon that you might want to add to your wardrobe this winter!
Read MoreI love the Advent season. The preparation for Christmas and the opportunity to focus my heart on the true reason for the season — Jesus! Several years ago, I purchased an Advent Bible Study from SheReadsTruth that came with these beautiful advent scripture ornaments that you could pop out and hang on your tree. This year I decided to use those scripture ornament cards as our Advent Calendar above our dining table so that we can read a verse every morning at breakfast as we prepare our hearts in this Christmas season.
I have rounded up several beautiful options for Advent Scripture Card Sets — most of them are from Etsy (which means they are handmade by small business creatives!). Some of these sets are printable downloads and others can be shipped.
Read MoreI can’t believe that it is already the end of July!
In this post, you’ll find a few of my favorite things that I have been enjoying the most over the past month or that my family has found to be super useful! It is my hope to share with you a few items every month and pass along some recommendations or joy to other families! Hope you find something helpful here!

This is going to sound crazy but my new favorite thing is budgeting with YNAB and you have to try it! It completely changed the way I think about money, the way I spend money, and for the first time in—ever?—I'm not stressed. I have a plan. You will thank me later—don't pass Go, don't collect $200, just sign-up for YNAB!
