We have seven people in this house. That means when it comes to doing work around the house, there is definitely a need for everyone to “pull their own weight.” Therefore, we make sure everyone has an equal opportunity and encourage independence by teaching the kids to use power tools. Teaching Kids To Use Power Tools The…
It’s probably “dangerous” to walk into am American Girl store with Jaci, our 10 year old, and tell her to get “whatever” she wants. Okay, not PROBABLY… it just is. She LOVES American Girl and is my go-to gal when I need information about them. Therefore, I handed her the latest catalog and asked her what…
Now, I am not always the best when it comes to doing our daughters’ hair. All that “girly stuff” was somehow lost on me growing up. But, again, with 4 daughters, it is definitely something I have had to learn over the years. Colby does nails quite well, but has never really tackled hair. With all…
We only have a few short weeks left before school starts. And even though we homeschool, that first day back to school is still a day full of photos and fun! Not to mention, the girls love shopping for new school clothes for their activities outside the home. Target is one of their favorite places…

Disclosure: I’m discussing facts about your period thanks to Playtex® Sport® as part of a sponsored post for Socialstars #PlaytexSportSquad. Periods are a fact of life for us, Ladies. For most of us, they are going to happen. I say “most” because those with amenorrhea have an absence of periods. For the rest of us, it’s coming. Probably…
With 4 daughters, you better believe I have a few that thoroughly enjoy their spa days. So much so that they often find ways to create a spa day at home. And as their mom they make me proud, it’s all about research for them. Yes, the 9 and 11 year old, Jaci and Jaden,…
If I have to be honest, shopping is not one of my favorite activities. Especially not when it is for one of our 4 daughters. Oh my. It can be downright torture if Colby and I do not “play the game right.” Yes, we have learned over the course of almost 19 years how to…
My girls love to help out in the kitchen. In fact, they even have not one, but TWO play kitchens. The time they spend pretending to cook in their kitchens is simply priceless. I believe there are life lessons taught in pretend play. Plus, they have been cooking up fun with Pottery Barn Kids toy…
