and we're nailin' it!
Like most kids, Lucian is very into transportation. He loves anything that flies or drives! That is where I got the idea for this pretend play traffic light. As soon as I started painting the lights, Lucian was asking to play with it. After it dried, he has played with it both inside and outside. […]
Over the last few years, we have tried out lots of fun toys and activities for summer. Here are our current favorites: Water Tables: This is the one Lu has. And Brooks has this one! They both spend a lot of time playing with these. We even bring Lucian’s into our shower for the winter! […]
We had a special order last month for name blocks. The blocks we made for this order were to be signed as a guest book at a shower! We love that idea! I have letter blocks that spell LUCIAN on a shelf in his room. I looked for letters at lots of antique stores before […]
I wanted to make something special for Brooks’ birthday. He has so much fun pretend playing so I knew I wanted to do something that facilitated that! We made Lu a kitchen last year, and he loves it, but I wanted to do something totally different! So, I decided to do a mini market. What’s […]
Tonies -Brooks LOVES his Tonies Box and so do we! It is great to use when he is in his stroller and in the car! It keeps him occupied and busy for hours. He listened to it on a 5 hour car ride over half of the time, majority of the time when he wasn’t […]

Our boys are both in a big Paw Patrol phase, so we have been finding all kinds of fun stuff and learning all about Marshall, Chase, Zuma etc. Last time the boys were together, they were racing down the hall […]
Our boys are at the perfect ages for shape identification. I saw this idea from a teacher who was using a laminated paper version and thought Lucian could totally use a set. Of course, I had to make them from wood. These are fun for going on an indoor or outdoor shape scavenger hunt! These […]
This week, we took Lucian and a friend to the Science Center to see some dinosaurs. They had a blast and we have been talking a lot about dinosaurs around here. Lucian’s favorite is the long neck! Of course, this was the inspiration for my project this week. If you are like us, you have […]
We thought it would be fun to share some building sets that we love with you. We will not be sharing plain wooden blocks, plain DUPLOS or any other common blocks; not because we don’t love those, WE DO! But, we wanted to share some you may not have tried out yet! PLUS PLUS Blocks: […]
