As Greyson grows so does all of his “stuff”. There are toys all over, he has taken over three drawers in our dining room hutch (play dough, and two craft drawers) he has Do-A-Dot markers on his easel in his bedroom, etc,etc,etc… A part of getting ready for Preschool at home was getting much more organized. I wanted a dedicated craft supply area for all

How on earth is my “baby” almost ready for Preschool??? Seriously though, how has the time passed so quickly that my son is almost 3 years old!? After months, maybe even more than a year or serious thought and contemplation I have decided to do preschool from home… and probably a real preschool as well I have never in my life thought that I would

Last week when we were on vacation in Maryland, we took Greyson to the Aquarium in Baltimore. It was fantastic. He loved it so much we actually spent the whole morning and planed on going to the Children’s Museum after lunch, but decided to go back to the Aquarium to spend more time.

Last year Greyson got a package of those cardboard-y, recycled material puzzles. You know what I mean? The ones that come in big packages for about a buck? They are easy to tear, and are not suitable for younger kids, because the only way of knowing where the pieces go is by the faint indentation on the puzzle board? These. Anyway, as I started to

Our “master” bedroom is one of the few rooms we have not touched since moving in. You know, other than throwing our furniture in there, and hanging up our clothes. I know that kitchens, bathrooms, and the master bedroom are the most important spaces in the home when selling. I personally think the easiest, cheapest, and most effective way to prep your rooms are
