Can you believe my little Fletcher just turned two on October 14th? It’s still hard to believe how fast the time goes by. He is a sweet, happy, funny little guy who loves to get into mischief (and believe me…he does!). He especially loves to read with me, which I love too. His current favorite is anything Little Blue Truck related. So, with his birthday being two weeks before Halloween, we decided to throw together a no fuss Little Blue Truck’s Halloween party for him. If…

  • Violet’s Goodnight Moon Birthday Party

    Goodnight Moon Birthday Party

    Hey Friends! Can you believe that my sweet baby girl, Violet, turned two yesterday? I can’t, that’s for sure! We’ve had two fun filled years with our sweet, spunky, lovable girl. She loves to give “huggy’s,” read books, “biwd” blocks, play with her big brother and sister and make up her own words. Grandma = “Mocha”; water = gaga; apple cider (her favorite!) = goup, her brother Owen = “Buh” and sister Hazel sounds like “Hey-dough. We have no idea where she came up with some of these but they have become standard language around our house! Over the weekend we celebrated her birthday with a “Goodnight Moon” party. Today,…

  • and just like that, Violet turned one

    Yesterday, our sweet little baby Violet turned one year old! This past year seems to have flown by, and we couldn’t imagine life without her. She has brought so much happiness and laughter to our family. Her older siblings are smitten with her and dote on her constantly. It is the sweetest to watch. Even Owen, who was sure he wasn’t ever going to like her and “didn’t even know why we were having a baby since he didn’t want one.” He is over the moon for this little girl now. As we all are… Seems like just yesterday, that I was driving out to Buffalo to pick up a…

  • Owen’s Avengers Superhero Birthday Party

    This post contains affiliate links. I may receive a small commission for any sales made through them. Full disclosure. I started this post about my little man, Owen’s, Avengers’ themed birthday party before Violet was born last fall! And as life goes…it just sat in my “drafts” waiting to be published. He will be turning five this coming September so I figured I better get this post out there before the next one rolls around. In fact we just celebrated Hazel’s 6th birthday on Saturday and had a fun horse themed party. Hopefully I will get that one posted here before she turns seven! I think he started planning his…

  • Hazel’s Wolf Birthday Party

    At the end of June, my sweet daughter Hazel turned five. Her favorite animal is the wolf, so for months she had been telling me she wanted to have a wolf themed birthday party. I knew it would be a tricky one planning and finding decorations for, but I was up for the challenge! Even though this party happened months ago, I still wanted to share how we celebrated here with you. Better late than never right? (I’m pretty sure I say that about all of my kids’ birthday party posts!) This post contains affiliate links. I may receive a small commission for any sales made through them. Thanks for…

  • DIY Monster’s Inc. Birthday Party

    This post contains some affiliate links. I may receive a small commission for any sales made through them. Full disclosure. One of the things I am notoriously bad at here on this little blog of mine, is posting my children’s birthday parties relatively soon after the event. My son Owen turned three last September…and we had a fun Monster’s Inc. party for him. He is obsessed with Monster’s Inc. and Monster’s University! I wish I had shared this sooner, but alas…better late than never, right? I must admit, I completely missed sharing his second birthday party here, which was a super cool car party. {Insert embarrassed emoji face here} Maybe…
