One of the most wonderful things about raising a family is that there are so many different ways to do it. Every family has their own way of doing things, from silly traditions, to how they celebrate holidays. I love traditions. I love our family traditions, I love starting new traditions, and I really love …

There are so many gift guides floating around the internet! Some of them are good, some of them are bad, and some are actually helpful… BUT I think we can all agree that we don’t need another gift guide. I saw another blogger I follow post something that I did think was helpful, interesting, and …

When you’re a twin parent and October comes around, you know that means it’s time to come up with some twin Halloween costume ideas. And holy moly, are there some great options out there! Getting dressed up in costume and going trick-or-treating is an exciting time for kids, especially when they get to dress up …

A question I’ve been getting a lot is how on earth do you keep your marriage alive after you have twins? Obviously Ben and I aren’t perfect. We have flaws, we get into dumb arguments, he loads the dishwasher wrong and I let it go for 37 days and yell at him on the 38th …

There have been occasions where I’ve thought something was a healthy option only to re-read the ingredient label …

Hey, friends! Well, we made it through the holiday season and into the new year. I am not a fan of doing fad diets (or diets at all, really). I eat clean, whole foods, with the occasional serving of ice cream or pizza. Moderation is key, right? The problem with moderation and sugar is that …

Finding the time and energy (and budget!) to feed our children healthy snacks can be exhausting. I’m not gonna lie, it’s just a lot sometimes.
