Mini Donut + Cupcake

Why not combine my two favorite sweets? Introducing a mini donut topped cupcake! I made these for my sister in law's baby shower this weekend to give as a prize. And I'm positive they will go over well!

Diaper Rash Oil

Have I told you I'm into essential oils right now? I have two diffusers almost always going. So when Waders recently came down with a nasty red diaper rash, we tried a homemade solution with two simple ingredients--coconut oil and lavender oil. Just mix one drop lavender to every one tablespoon coconut oil. Wade's bottom is healing nice

Easter Bunny

We are looking forward to our first Easter together with Wade. I bought a special Longaberger basket for him to use for years to come as his Easter basket. And someone found it early! 
I'm excited to have my parents and little sister in town to help celebrate. We are planning on doing some baking and sewing and the boys will be busy riding bikes if it is nice enough! We are staring a few traditions with an Easter donut cake and Starbucks on Saturday morning and a huge brunch at Minervas on Sunday after church.

Baby Face

Kyle was ready to shave off his winter beard. So, before he trimmed off all his whiskers, we snapped a couple of photos. What do you think?

Everyday Towels


Have you heard of everyday towels? They are tea towels embroidered with the days of the week. My sister in law gave me a set since she knew I was drooling over a set I saw elsewhere. They are so stinking cute, with carefully stitched outlines of a little girl doing something different each day of the week. They are very special to me- almost too special to use! Let's just say I won't be cleaning up coffee spills with these treasures!

Sister Saturday

My little sister came to town to visit Wade and I. We had a lot of fun together-- we went downtown for coffee and enjoyed the beautiful day going for a walk. Wade just loves his Auntie Kitty.
