Romy & Piper’s 8th Birthday, Harry Potter Style
I truly cannot believe the girls are EIGHT! In my head I always kind of thought they’d suddenly seem “big” when they were 8—their baby faces would leave me and I would feel a shift, my little girls would be on their way to BIG. And I was right: their faces have thinned out, their…

AMAZON PRIME DAY FAVORITES!
Hi team! If you’ve been around for a while, you know I’m not the type to get excited about a sale unless it’s GOOD – things that are super useful and very marked down! I would never ever shop a sale for the sake of shopping a sale. That being said, I have been really…
Disneyland like a Local
We’ve had the annual pass for locals since before the girls were born – not because I’m a Disney adult, but because we always wanted to be able to meet up with family and friends when they’d come to town to go. Now it doesn’t make as much sense to have for many reasons, but…

When I asked Romy and Piper what kind of 7th birthday party they wanted, they said “a cat and dog party”…what? I was stumped until @kaelireed helped me pull it into an actual idea. Since then, I’ve had three friends throw the exact same party for their kids, with rave reviews, so I figured I’d give it…
Romy & Piper – 4th Birthday Pool Party & Gift Ideas
The girls turned 4 on September 7th, and leading up to that day I was back and forth on whether or not I would have a birthday party for them. I couldn’t believe that we were seemingly in the same place we’d been the year before – with so many of our friends coming down…

Romy & Piper’s 3rd Birthday Party, Toy Story Style
I remember our friends having to cancel their twins’ birthday party back in March, and thinking “Thank goodness Romy and Piper’s birthday is so far away, this will all be over by then.” Uh, nope! Here we are in September, and having a really big kid birthday party still sounds like a dumb idea. When…

The New Place
Ok, so now that I’ve told you why we moved, I’ll answer some of your questions about the new place ;). We moved to the Bonsall/Fallbrook/Vista area. It’s about an hour south and inland from where we were living in Costa Mesa, just inland from Oceanside. With all of the time spent at home this year,…
