Homemade Ice Pack aka DIY Soapy Mess W gets his fair share of bumps and bruises. Of course, by fair share I mean he always has a new bruise. Oh and he bumps his head a couple of times a day. I’m hoping it’s a toddler thing and not a clumsy thing. Remember when I [...]
Toddler Science Experiments My son is obsessed with volcanos. He is all about any toddler science experiments he can do to test out how volcanos work and how to make things explode! I decided to start teaching him the basics behind reactions before we start building our first volcano. With this experiment we decided to [...]
DIY Boy Bedroom Makeover Yes, the title of this post is DIY Boy Bedroom Makeover. Yes, that is a photo of a very pink room. Well, that is the before shot! When we moved into our house 9 months ago, that is what W’s bedroom looked like. He still sleeps in our room so it [...]

When it comes to home repair and home decorating, I usually do the projects with my mom. J enjoys the improvements we make and will help out if we ask, but it’s not really his thing. When we moved into our new house, one thing I knew we needed to replace was the faucet in [...]
We moved into our new house the weekend before Halloween and I had big plans for Thanksgiving break. In the week I had off from work, I planned to paint the Powder room and the entire breakfast nook and wet bar area. My mom thought that one project was all I would get done but [...]
