Heyah Friends, How are you all doing!?! Last week we had our first snow day of the year which meant no school, it was accompanied by the #polarvortex2019 artic blast the Midwest got. Let me tell ya, it was cold! We didn’t get it nearly as bad as the northern midwest did will wind chill dropping all the way to -50°F…that is just crazy cold! All morning the kids were dying to go outside and play in the snow because…
Have you seen the 10-year challenge that has been going around on social media?! Well, I put one together for us because 10 years ago it was just me, Bryce and Jarret. The Mehaffey Trio! I’m glad it was just us 3 for so long, we had a lot of time to just spoil Bryce and learn what parenting was all about. Although…do you really know? I know even to this day as a parent to 3 school age kids,…
Winter break is over, all the kids are back in school, Grandma flew out yesterday evening and now it’s time to get back on schedule…waa-waa. I feel like this winter break went by so fast and I’m sure it has to do with my Mom being here and lending a helping hand! The kids enjoyed Grandma being here just as much as I did and we laid down a lot of miles over this past week with our long walks.…
Happy New Year 2019, today is the second day of the new year!!! Did you all stay up until midnight? I think you probably know the answer for me…no I didn’t, haha!

A blank slate with endless possibilities… 2018 your chapter is closed, although I…

December is such a weird weather month here in Missouri, sometimes it’s absolutely freezing❄, sometimes it’s in the 50’s⛅(which is welcomed), sometimes it’s raining☔ , sometimes it’s snowing⛄ or like the other night, extreme tornado warnings🌀! Yeah, the weather has been all over the board this month and we are…
The girls have been waiting soooo long to go to Build A Bear Workshop! I’ve been telling them since summer that after Thanksgiving we will take you to Build A Bear. I wanted it to be something special, something that kicked off the Christmas season. Also, Build A Bear is not cheap by any means, it’s a special occasion kind of place in my opinion! But I think the whole process is fun for the girls and I like that…
How to Make Your Child’s Bed Cozy – All 3 of my kids love their beds, and in the winter they’re extra cozy with warm flannel sheets and cozy blankets that make their beds extra special! Believe me, when it’s freezing outside, the last thing you want is your child to sleep in a cold bed or not have enough blankets to stay warm. They get a terrible night’s sleep,they’re cold, they’re grumpy and that’s the last thing you want…
