Eating out with young children can be a challenge, but Scott and I like to live on the wild side. Of course, it was a little easier when it was just Beckett, but even now that we are a family of four, we still venture out to restaurants on a fairly regular basis. Every once in awhile we end up having to ask for our food to go if the kids decide not to cooperate, but usually Beckett and Cooper are on their best behavior and manage to charm everyone at the surrounding tables. For me, the biggest ... View the Post

{gifts with style} Beckett’s Big Brother Kit
A few weeks back, I shared a sneak peek of one of the special gifts I made for Beckett to give him when our new baby arrived - a custom designed board book featuring hand drawn animal silhouettes. Today I'm back to show you the entire Big Brother Kit that we gave to him at the hospital after Cooper was born. The idea for the Big Brother Kit started with my desire to make Beckett a special Big Brother shirt using iron-on transfer paper. I bought a plain black t-shirt from ... View the Post
{decorating with style} Designing a Gender Neutral Nursery
Long before I was ever pregnant with our son, Beckett, I started imagining how I would someday want to decorate a nursery. Scott and I had already made the decision that we would want the baby’s sex to be a surprise, so that meant a gender neutral nursery would be in order. Many family and friends acquainted with my Type A personality seemed surprised that I wouldn’t want to know the whether we were having a boy or a girl so that I could plan accordingly. I had a different ... View the Post
A Winter Onederland First Birthday Party
It's been a cold and snowy winter wonderland here in Colorado these last few weeks, and I know that's true just about everywhere else as well!

That makes this the perfect time to share with you some gorgeous photos from the Winter Onederland party that my friend Colleen threw for her one year old's first birthday. I first met Colleen when we co-hosted a baby shower for a mutual ... View the Post

4 Tips for Organizing Bathroom Drawers
I organized our master bathroom drawers shortly after we moved into our house six years ago, and I must have done something right, because the drawers are just as organized today as they were on day one.

How to Create Durable and Pretty Basket Labels
Did you guys have a chance to check out our newly organized coat closet? I'm still grinning from ear to ear about how it turned out, and as usual, I added a few different types of DIY labels to help keep it organized. Labeling is so important because it allows every person in the family to know where to find things, and makes it much easier to put things back in the right place. But labels are no good if they can't hold up to some wear and tear, and simple paper labels are not up to that ... View the Post
Small Utility Room Shelving Solution & the Best Way to Organize Paint Supplies
Having a fully finished basement adds a lot of livable square footage to our house, but it also means that there's almost no storage space.

HOW TO ADD SHELVING TO A SMALL UTILITY ROOM Utility rooms generally aren't the most storage friendly spaces, and the pipes running floor to ceiling in the middle of ours made it ... View the Post
{organizing with style} My Makeup Drawer
Is your makeup a mess? It doesn't have to be! Today I'm sharing a few simple tips for keeping makeup organized in a drawer. STEP 1 - SORT & PURGE The first step to organizing any drawer is to empty it out completely. Once everything is out on the counter, begin sorting your makeup. The categories I selected were eyes, lips and face. Once I had my makeup sorted, I began to purge anything that was too old or that I just don't use anymore. I am never sure how long to keep ...

Color Coded Nail Polish Drawer
With spring official here, I am itching for warmer weather - mostly because I love wearing sandals and flip flops!
