How to Transition Baby to Nursery: It's a big change for everyone when the time has come to get Baby to sleep in his own room! Moving from parents' room to nursery is a big step, and it's important to navigate the transition to crib sleeping carefully. A mom of 2 shares how her family successfully navigated the transitioning Baby to sleeping in nursery with minimal stress! [ad] #MyVTechNursery

Over the past week or so, we’ve been working on transitioning Blair to her nursery. After all, I worked so hard preparing her room before she arrived… might as well get some use out of it, right? When it comes to transitioning Baby to the nursery, a band-aid approach works best for our family: move all sleep to Baby’s room at the same time. Now that I’ve navigated this rite of passage with two little ones, I want to share some of my best tips on how to transition Baby to nursery!

Christmas Recap 2017 [First Christmas as a Family of 4]

No Comments

Our first Christmas as a family of four is officially in the books! And wow, this holiday season was a complete whirlwind. For starters, various combinations of the kids and I were sick for about the first 2 weeks of December. Between recovering from illness and having a baby who doesn’t sleep through the night, I felt like I was on auto-pilot for most of the season.

Of course, I still wanted to do all of our favorite holiday traditions with the little ones. We just had to cram everything in super fast once we were all feeling better! I knew this would be a really fun year, since Colton is at an age where he thinks Christmas is really magical. Plus, it was Blair’s very first Christmas! And there’s nothing better than a baby’s first holiday season.

Reindeer Treats Recipe [Kid-Friendly Christmas Dessert]

8 Comments

Your family will love this kid-friendly Christmas dessert recipe for Reindeer Treats! It doesn't matter whether you call it Reindeer Treats, Reindeer Chow, Christmas Muddy Buddies, or even Puppy Chow... everyone loves a big bowl of this stuff! This holiday version is even more festive with the addition of red and green candies.

One of my favorite holiday traditions is spending time in the kitchen with my little ones. Earlier today, we used this Reindeer Treats recipe to whip up a big batch to take to Grandma and Grandpa’s house for Christmas Eve. I’ve heard this stuff called Reindeer Treats, Reindeer Chow, Christmas Muddy Buddies, and even Puppy Chow… but in the end, it doesn’t really matter what you call it. All that matters is that you make it.

Ms. Pac-Man and Ghosts Costumes [DIY Family Halloween]

11 Comments

Ms. Pacman and Ghosts Costumes! Here's a DIY family Halloween costume idea that is easy to put together, even as a last-minute Halloween costume! This family Halloween costume could also be adapted to a regular Pac-man for a boy infant or toddler. Pacman and Ms. Pacman costumes would also be great for cosplay or dress-up outside of Halloween, too!

Christmas is a week away… which means it’s time to share our DIY family Halloween costume, because why not? Look, I have 2 little ones. Hence, why I’m posting Halloween costumes in December. But when they’re as cute as this Ms. Pac-Man and Ghosts costumes ensemble, I can’t let the season pass by without sharing. [And by “season,” obviously I mean “the last 3 months of the year,” which is totally a season in my book.]

My birthday is at the beginning of October, so it’s the perfect time for some fall family fun! Since we’ve had little ones, my birthday tradition has been to visit the pumpkin patch. Well, I have another birthday tradition too: a cookie cake. Can’t forget the cookie cake!

Fall is my favorite season, and I have lots of fun doing all the “basic” fall activities with my little fam. This year, we visited a local pumpkin patch specially geared towards little kids. Colton was able to do almost all of the activities without help, which was awesome!
