Oh Monday….I kind of wish you weren’t here already. I had far to much fun with my boys this weekend in LA skipping bed times, eating too much junk food, and cheering on the Cougars. But man, we’re all tired and wish we had a day to SLEEP. In a mother’s dreams right? But yay…

Fall Art {using Monster Trucks!}
I’m a not a super arsty-craftsy kind of mom, but the boys love painting, coloring, and creating with their little hands (what kid doesn’t), so I’m trying to do more of it with them. Neither really have homework yet, so it’s been the perfect after-school activity. Earlier this week we paited fall trees…..with Monster Trucks! …
Long Live Summer!!
Labor Day kind of marks the end of summer and beginning of fall for most, but for us it means hotter {really HOT} days to come. It make me miss the cool, crisp fall nights we used to enjoy in Utah so, so much. I’ll try not to complain about how much I miss fall weather since we…
Brown Butter Apple Spice Oatmeal Cookies
If you put me in charge of bringing dessert to dinner you can pretty much plan on me bringing cookies. Especially if it’s Sunday. We love baking cookies on Sundays! Well, we kind like it on Friday and Saturday nights too. But on Sundays, it’s kind of our (mine and Brett’s) way to end the weekend…
Fried Out Fridays
This week Miles started preschool! That alone made it a good one 🙂 We were both so excited and he loved it! I didn’t get a call from the school to inform me he peed his pants either…so, YAY!! O is LOVING kindergarten + making new friends + has a serious new interest in basketball….
{Game Day} Sticky Japanese Chicken Wings + Zucchini Chips from Plated
These wings are comin’ in hot at ya just in time for game day this weekend!! These aren’t your traditional wings but they’re packed with asian flavor and some kick. As long as they’ve got some kick, we’re all good right? They’re saucy, sticky, and finger-lickin’ good.
Books the boys are loving!
Lately we’ve been trying to have more reading time at our house. To be honest, we haven’t been very consistent about reading books to the boys, or just making them have some quiet book time every day. But with O in kindergarten and learning to read, we really want to encourage reading and make reading fun…
Fried Out Fridays
The great thing about living in southern California is we constantly have visitors!! We’ve had good friends staying with us for the last week and we’ve been cramming in all the fun that we possibly can…with a 5 yr old, two toddlers, and two babies in tow! It’s been a party 🙂 But I’m back with…

Strawberry Banana Teething Pops
Graham is 11 months old and just cut his sixth tooth. SIXTH. For about a month he was fussy, on edge, gnawing on everything, and NOT SLEEPING. {By the way, I’ve completley given up on the idea that I will EVER sleep through the night again. Which is the number one reason I will forever drink…
Choco Chip Peanut Butter Honey Nut Cheerio Bars
These cheerio bars {let’s just call them cheerio bars because really, that name is just way too long} could be the perfect afterschool snack. They could be, and I’m sure totally would be if there were actually any left by the time your kiddo(s) got home from school. Oopsie. Who can resist a pan of ooey-gooey…
