Home-Made Diaper Wipes

Okay, so I took some really great pictures of this project, but I can’t get them to upload at this time for some reason, so I’ll just have to post without pictures for now. Hopefully I’ll be able to upload later. I haven’t posted in quite some time, because quite frankly, I haven’t had time [...]

So, this is my first post on my blog. I’ve been wanting to write up a post such as this one for ages so I sat down and wrote it all in one sitting. I hope you enjoy it, and, if you`re looking for other posts of the same style I suggest both Maddie`s or Luinae`s! This year I [...]

Reasoning For Rocking A Pixie Cut AND Extra Stuff For Those Who Have All Ready Taken the Plunge

Hi my name is Rachel and I’ve had a pixie cut for approximately 4 months.  And it is freakin’ awesome. Personally I think that doing this is singularly the most empowering thing ever. And plus, I just look good with it, I’ve gotten tons of jaw-drop reactions when I first cut it off (which is fun) [...]

More From Tea Party

Perhaps the prettiest juice boxes you’ll ever see! I gave the boys these milk carton wallets using a template from familyfun.com. I considered covering them in some kind of fabric, but then figured the boys would think they were cooler this way. The girls got these little purses with a couple of girly treats inside. [...]
