We didn't find out the sex of our first child three years ago, and it was so much fun that we decided to do it again with our second that was born this August 2020. My pregnancies were very similar so I thought it was a boy, but I knew there was still a chance that ... View the Post
Callum’s Birth Story
Our first family picture in the hospital, eager to get home to Oliver. Monday August 24, 2020 I woke up in the night (Aug 23) and had a few unusual pains, was a little uncomfortable but nothing that I would call contractions, just some very mild discomfort. It went away in the morning but came back when I tried to lay down for 15 minutes before heading to my Dr. appointment in the afternoon, at 3:15pm. They went away again and I didn’t even mention it to my Doctor at my 40 week appointment ... View the Post
Chewy Chocolate Cookies + Tips For Baking With Toddlers
My mom has been making these Chewy Chocolate Cookies since I was a child and she even stacked them like a cake and put candles in them one year for my birthday party! Anyone else have an unusual cake for their birthday or celebration? These cookies are so easy to make, you only need one bowl, but the batter is so delicious you'll need a lot of self discipline to resist, haha. Oliver, my two and a half year old toddler has made these a few times with me and it made me want to write down a ... View the Post
First Pregnancy 2017 vs Second Pregnancy 2020
Well, if you didn't know already (because I realize I hadn't even announced our pregnancy on the blog yet, oops!) I am pregnant with our second little bundle of joy. I am due in August and obviously for many reasons, these pregnancies have been completely different but actually a lot more similar than I thought. First Pregnancy in 2017 Daniel and I waited almost 10 years of marriage to start trying for a family. I knew this was risky because we had no idea how long it would take to get ... View the Post

Ikea Hack: Toddler Kitchen Helper Stool
I knew I wanted a "kitchen helper stool" or "toddler learning tower stool" (whatever you want to call it) but the only ones I could find here in the States were so expensive. They look great quality, like this one from Little Partners, but just out of our budget. Like ever. So as I was scrolling through Pinterest, as one does, I saw Sina from Happy Grey Lucky had instructions for an Ikea hack and I sent Daniel the link straight away. I am not handy at all, and neither is he (he will be the ... View the Post
How to go Vegan: 5 tips for going vegan
Welcome to 2019 - the year of the vegan (apparently!). It's officially #Veganuary (vegan in January) and a few people have reached out to me to say they are trying to add more vegan meals to their diet so I thought get a post together with some resources that might help. What a great way to start off the year with adding some plant-based meals to your plate. And I do want to say that it is easy to get into the mindset of thinking, "What can't I have as a vegan?" but being vegan for me is truly ... View the Post
Merry Christmas
Getting my little guy to smile by rolling his little car on his back! Just wanted to say a very Merry Christmas to you today. We have always celebrated on Christmas Eve with dinner, reading the Christmas story and opening gifts with pudding. My grandpa would always tell it the best with one of the cousins on his lap, but him and my gran aren't with us anymore so we just tell it ourselves as best as we can, or read it straight from scripture. One year by parents thought it would be fun (it ... View the Post
Breastfeeding: Newborn to past a year
**I am not sharing medical advice, just my breastfeeding journey. Please consult a professional for breastfeeding support.** There are many hidden mysteries about pregnancy, childbirth and parenting that you have to discover for yourselves. Honestly I do know why we don't talk about them with others who don't have kids, unless they ask: It can be a little scary and overwhelming. Having said that, I still don't remember my friends having conversations about tearing, sitz baths, crying babies ... View the Post
Gifts for baby: Toys and Books for 9 – 18 months
Playing his xylophone, but mostly playing with the mallets. Photo: Kelly Klemmensen. 1. Xylophone My mom got this xylophone for Oliver's birthday after a lot of research. She went and tried different ones out to make sure they had a nice sound and even returned one with good reviews because the notes were out of order. She landed on this one and Oliver can use the mallets to slide up and down or beat the bars. It's technically a glockenspiel because it is made of metal instead of wood but I ... View the Post
