Rosie at 21 months is a mood! She has lots of facial expressions, a cute little personality, and is showing so much affection! She is still imitating every single thing we say and do. I love when she says "here you go mama" or "I love you mama." Her little voice and little sentences just melt my heart. I never want to forget her morning cuddles, her hugs and kisses, and her funny little babble. Tony is constantly saying, "we have the coolest kid" and I completely agree! I can't believe at the ...

Rosie is 19 months old and I JUST finished her baby book. When I posted that on Instagram, I was shocked at how many moms out there never finished their kids' baby books. The moms that I spoke to said it was too overwhelming and too time-consuming. I feel like the way I did Rosie's baby book was relatively pain free, and I honestly feel like I "hacked" this whole baby book thing! Here are some tips and tricks for getting that baby book done quickly and easily! Before I give you the hot ... View the Post

Traveling with a toddler is no joke! Traveling with a newborn of course has its own challenges (see post here!) but I’ve found traveling with a toddler to be even more difficult. With an infant, the worries were feedings, germs, and having enough supplies, whereas with a toddler, it’s more about tantrums, sleep, and keeping them busy! We haven’t traveled a lot with a toddler (in a pandemic right now of course!) but we’ve flown a few times and just took a 20 hour road trip! Here are some of the ... View the Post

Rosie at 18 months is so much fun! Tony and I keep talking about how funny she is. We could both watch her all day long. Rosie imitates everything we say (even the words she shouldn't!) and also comes up with her own super funny things too. I love the way she covers her own eyes to do "peekaboo." She cracks me up when she shouts "Oh no!" in response to something. I never want to forget how she turns her back to me to tell me she wants to sit on my lap, or how she lays on my chest to watch ...

Rosie is 15 months and a full-on toddler! She is a walking, talking, wild toddler! This is such a fun age for us because she is a sponge! Rosie repeats what I say, tries to imitate everything I do, and is learning so much every day. I always want to remember her little curls, the way she blows a kiss, all of her animal sounds, the way she eats an apple, the way she says certain words like "mama," "no," and "bye," and her darling dance moves. I love you my sweet girl. This is the first ... View the Post

With snow in the forecast and cooler temperatures, it was time for me to buy Rosie a Winter coat! Last year I didn't bother much with a Winter coat since she was a newborn and we could use a car seat cover. This year is a whole new adventure because we have to find a coat that will work in the car seat. I've been doing a lot of research on car seat coats, trying to figure out what exactly is safe. I didn't know that car seat coats were a big topic of conversation for toddlers until I had one! ... View the Post
