And just like that our baby girl is 1. It’s been a year like no other and I am overwhelmed by the thought of already having spent 365 days with our Ava. It’s strange how, the more kids we have, the more appreciative I become of every second I get to spend with each of them. Of course there’s also just something extra special about a 1st birthday… So, why not celebrate it with a cake smash? Unique in every…

What to buy Mom: The ultimate Mother’s Day wish list for every Mom!
May 4, 2018It’s May and with Mother’s Day right around the corner, (like just over a week away), it’s time to get those spoils for mama sorted! I know there are tons of cute DIY crafts on Pinterest and breakfast in bed is always a winner but I won’t lie, getting a special gift to unwrap is never a bad thing… Something sentimental or maybe something fabulous to remind mom how special she is and how much everyone cares. That “something” mom…
It’s no secret, we are Christians… A label that carries so much weight and judgement and I completely understand why. With statements like; “Christians are boring. They are “know-it-all’s”, thinking they know best. Christians are hypocrites, believing they are better than others. They always stick their noses in other people’s business. Christians are mean and judgmental. I don’t like Christians…” All of the above is true. There are a lot to be said about Christians because above all Christians are…
Easter Breakfast Inspiration: A Sunrise Picnic Surprise!
Mar 29, 2018Easter. A time to stop, be grateful and thank our Lord for the love He has shown us. That’s what Easter means to us. It’s also a time to spend with family. Since I can remember we’ve always celebrated with a special Easter breakfast or brunch. It’s one of my fondest childhood memories and a tradition we have continued with the girls. This year we surprised them all a little earlier than usual with a break of dawn backyard breakfast…
Last month Eliana turned 6 and in keeping with her current super hero obsession (have a look at her day as Super Girl here), we threw her a Super 6 Superhero birthday party! Since she is now a “big girl” we wanted her to join in on the party prep and planning, incorporating as much DIY as possible! Easy DIY Superhero birthday party decor. One of the 1st steps in planning a pretty party (no matter the theme) is setting…
Another year, another birthday. Another moment that has come so soon. How we treasure every day we get to share with you! Our Pickle. Last year it was donuts, this year you’re showing your SUPER powers! Eliana you’re 6, SUPER 6, as you like to put it and we completely get why… You’re SUPER in so many ways! You’re a SUPER big sister! Not just looking out for your little sisters but loving them so much it make OUR hearts…
Back in 2013 we celebrated Eliana’s 1st birthday. It was our first time planning and hosting a kids party. I’m not sure who was more excited; Mr. Perfect or myself… Eliana honestly couldn’t care less but, we were 1st time parents that survived the 1st year! It NEEDED to be celebrated. We went for the ultimate cliché; a girly PINK PARTY! (It was the year of pink and clichés are there for a reason, right?) I planned every last detail…
Baby’s 1st Christmas: The perfect Little keepsake
Nov 17, 2017Christmas is such a special time of year but this year is going to be extra special, we’ll be celebrating our baby’s 1st Christmas! It will be the 1st time Ava gets to share in all our family traditions and Xmas celebrations. She will see the magical twinkle of Christmas lights, smell our homemade cookies, hear ABBA fill the house, feel the warmth of Jesus amplified and even get a taste of festive cuisine (thanks to mama’s milk and all).…
3 It’s always been a favourite of mine… 13 Feb 2003 – the day I met Mr. Perfect, October 3rd – our wedding anniversary, also the amount of little ladies we currently have and 3, the age of our middle little. Isn’t 3 just the cutest? We’re past the hard work of those 1st few years and everyone survived the “terrible twos”… no more bottles, diapers, no trying to decipher the wants and needs of a 3 foot dictator. Yes, 3…
