Part 1! Re-sharing my no crap Easter basket reels from years past before I share this year’s ideas too! Hoping I can give your Easter bunny some easy ideas 🐰

I’m a big believer in Easter baskets being filled with the things you’d buy for spring/summer anyways! Things for the pool, stuff for upcoming trips or vacations, or just general warmer month entertainment! Let’s remember, K.I.S.S. (Keep it simple, stupid!)

This is the last part of the series for this year!

Comment “NO CRAP” if your bunny wants to add any of this to the ol’ basket!

Part 4! Out of all the no crap I’ve done, these are some of my favorite & most used things to do date (and I can say that because I filmed this last year & am still using everything I showed in this video 😉)

Part 3! Resharing this one from last year with some more water themed ideas for ya!

Enough with the Cadbury egg protein balls already, make yourself one of these instead 👊🏻

But, who has actually tried the real deal?! I need to know if it’s good, because I thought this was gooooood & I’m not even a big creme egg gal

⭐️ Recipe : (I halfed this in the video & it made enough for 1 maybe 2 people. Recipe below is NOT halfed )

•4 cups vanilla ice cream (I used homestyle vanilla)
•4 Cadbury creme eggs chopped
•2 TBS whipping cream

Pulse in a blender 10ish times. You still want some bigger chunks! Top with some chopped creme eggs & chocolate syrup!

You wanna gate keep this one from the rest of us Mickey D’s?! I got it figured out 🫡

Part 2! A little bit of this & a little bit of that .

*I will say the Globble balls are pretty fun! I’ve never had them stick in hair or clothes or anything BUT a few instances where they are thrown up high on the wall & take some time to fall 😅

Comment “No Crap” to check any of this out!

Time to buy my non-stop growing kids what feels a whole new seasonal wardrobe! If I don’t have hand me downs, I like to find sales to buy this on. Super cash is good at Old Navy right (now on top of other sales). Here’s what I’m getting 👇🏻

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids #LTKSpringSale

WHAT IN THE WORLD IS ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING FOR US??

All of it? Some of it? None of it?

Let’s make a list. I wanna hear it all. What have you tried that did and didn’t work? Anyone tried medicube? We think red light is working? Give me the skin care teaaaaaa ☕️

#LTKmomlife #LTKdayinmylife #LTKmorningroutine

These always sell out fast! I always get the biggest size. The bee 🐝 one is already on her way to me

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome #LTKmomlife

Lipton extra noodle soup >>>

Anyone else sick out there?? Whatever the crap this sickness is that hit my oldest two…imma send it back to the depths of h*ll from where it came

#LTKKids #LTKmomlife #LTKdayinmylife

Diet Coke lovers about to come for me

Lut some of these! 👇🏻

*@nodpodofficial: if you have any trouble falling asleep, I think this is totally worth it! I’ve been using it over a month & it’s been great. You can also put it in the freezer to make it totally cold (like for migraines) AND it’s also machine washable. You can heat it up in your dryer if you want!

*Always pan: look, if a pan is costing me $135 I want it to be one of the best. Its highly promoted by influencers, but I’ve owned it several years now & am not impressed.

*Hydrojug: do I use a Hydrojug? Yes, but stopped buying new ones over a year ago. I am so annoyed they have AND sell the lids that don’t mold on their site, but are currently NOT PUTTING THEM ON THEIR NEW RELEASES. If I’m buying a $45 cup, I don’t want to spend another $9 on another lid that should be on there anyway. Yes, if you write them, about a moldy lid they will send you a new one for free, but I’ve replaced some lids 3+ times and I’m tired of it 🫣🙃

So, you think you’ll get NKD? OR have you already? Gimme your thoughts if you’ve tried ‘em!

#LTKHome #LTKmomlife #LTKKids

Where my last minute planners at?? I used to not procrastinate stuff & now I feel like I work best under pressure. If you’re like me, I got you 🫡

#LTKValentine #LTKmomlife #LTKKids

If you want to add some color & comfort to your winter, this is your set. If you want to not be noticed in public or to hide from your kids - this isn’t the color you want 😉

#LTKdayinmylife #LTKmomlife #LTKgrwm

I thought of two of my easiest options for ya for your Super Bowl gathering (because we all know food is the best part). Gimme all the snacky good & sugary drinks!

What do you serve at your party?!

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids

It’s a random list, but that’s how my brain works!

What makes your list??

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids #LTKdayinmylife

We love these pjs! They do long sleeved versions, short sleeve versions, and shorts. We just keep buying the new prints as my daughter grows out of them. Good quality & underrated. Also, $15.98 for the set!

🚨Valentine’s Day (or any holiday) doesn’t need to be expensive and extravagant to be fun! I know you know that…BUT, if you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the things people share, this is me reminding you to K.I.S.S. (Keep it simple, stupid!)

What do you do for Valentine’s Day with your kids?!

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids #LTKValentine

I’m reminding you of these storage options I shared last year because it’s been over a year & a half of them & they’re still serving me well!

I’ll keep you updated on the bed!

Comment “NO SUCK” if you want to check any out!

Grab and go is the way to go 🤘🏻I grab them when we head to church, travel, restaurants, in-laws, and when my younger kids have to watch bigger siblings games, practices, and activities. They’ve been helping to keep me sane since 2024 🫡

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids #LTKTravel

Needed some color in my January

#LTKKids #LTKmomlife #LTKHome

I love doing PJS for holidays like valentines or Easter! It’s easy fun and my kids always need pjs! I usually do Target or Walmart but, these were $9 at Gap and the discount at checkout makes them $8.10!

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids

Just going to word vomit for a minute on class Valentines. Look, if it brings you joy to deck the halls and go all out on these then YOU GO GLEN COCO! But, some of these options I see shared are like 💀🤑💰

I’m just reminding you there are a ton of class Valentines out there that get the job done and don’t require second mortgages or a lot of time to make.

Give candy, don’t give candy. I don’t care! Just remember, most of it will probably get trashed anyway 🙃 (unless you give out nerd clusters or Reese’s hearts. We don’t trash those in our house)

#LTKKids #LTKmomlife

I ain’t ashamed to admit that in my mid 30’s & really find coloring relaxing!

I thought my older 2 kids were kind of over it …until winter break. I wanted some activities we could do (but a puzzle wouldn’t stand a chance in our house with 2 toddlers) so I revamped some of our coloring supplies & got things they may appeal more towards my older kids. Then, I just started sitting down & doing it by myself when I could & slowly they joined in. We colored nearly every day of break. While they colored we talked. We watched movies. Some days I read to them. Some days friends joined. We bonded & Conversations naturally happened.

It’s a good winter activity & it’s something I hope we can keep doing together. Coloring + connecting 🖍️

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids

Ok, Walmart. I can’t decide between the pink gingham or red, but leaning red. Although, pink gingham can carry through to spring. Sooo. Whatever is out of stock is supposed to restock!

#LTKmomlife #LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

I shared this last year & I’m sharing again because it’s so simple, but it changes the game IMO

Don’t save the stockings til last minute! Organize now & thank yourself later as you hand the bags off to your husband to fill up the stockings 👊🏻

I used to avoid simmer pots because I thought they looked like too much work. Turns out, I was wrong (happens rarely 😉 - just ask my husband). They’re super easy, they smell like Christmas in a pot, & they last 3 days.

With littles, I prefer to do mine in a mini crockpot, but the simmer pots on the stove work just as great.

Add the ingredients to your grocery order for Christmas & give it a shot!

Recipe: (you could cut this in half)
•2 teaspoons nutmeg
•3 teaspoons whole cloves
•3 anise stars (optional. Kind of hard to find a bit more expensive. I’ve done simmer pots without them & they still smell great!)
•1 c cranberries
•2 sprigs rosemary
•2-3 cinnamon sticks
•2 navel oranges

Have you tried ‘em?! Gimme your thoughts if so.

If you want to:
•1 bag cranberries (rinsed)
• 1 can 7UP
•1 cup OJ
•1 cup (ish) powdered sugar - DO NOT use a kind with cornstarch. Som say that it makes them taste like soap. I used organic from Target with tapioca starch in it. (Whatever that means)

Pour 7UP and OJ on cranberries & let soak in fridge . Most recipes said overnight but some said 24 hours - so do whatever

Drain all liquid. Pour 1 cup powdered sugar on them and shake to cover.

Bake 250 for 4-5 min (no longer or they get soggier). Let cool completely! I put mine in the fridge

I really enjoy stuffing stockings. I’m convinced just aren’t many affordable toys that are stocking size, that won’t be raged cleaned in a couple months. I’ve definitely learned to simplify and focus on practical things or consumable things.

Comment “NO CRAP” if you want my full list!

The PERFECT movie night snack! And literally SO easy! I’m OBSESSED 💁🏽‍♀️

Being a Pinterest mom & creating all this holiday magic is exhausting this time of year! If you’re not making frozen snowmen out of your whip cream, are you even a good mom?!

I’m just mad that I actually tried to create these & couldn’t. Marshmallows + whip cream only from here on out 🙃🙃

I’ve given you ideas for kids, for your husband, now what about for you?! Send this to whoever is stuffing your stocking…it’s ok if you send it to yourself 😉

What else would you add?! Tell me what you want in your stocking? We can give each other (and our spouses) some ideas.

#LTKHoliday #LTKmomlife #LTKGiftGuide

I got the Cozy Christmas coloring book m at Target & my 7 year old & I colored in it a ton today! They have a ton of themes and would fit great in stocking. The markers are a Black Friday buy, but they’re alcohol based and not washable, so better for older kids! They have a thick and a thin end.

#LTKGiftGuide #LTKKids #LTKHoliday

My dad always tells me if you need expert advice at a store like Home Depot to find a “gray hair” . So, I figured, when it comes to men’s stockings - I better find a “gray hair” or in this case… a “no hair” 👴🏻

*My Husband and I ONLY do stockings for reach other. So, price points vary here to try and help different circumstances!

#LTKGiftGuide #LTKHoliday #LTKMens

My kids have been sleeping with their trees every night. I was searching for an option for you to use in your kids’ bedrooms and found this pre-lit one on sale at Michael’s for $19.99! My store had some ready for pickup or it’s free shipping over $39

#LTKKids #LTKHome #LTKHoliday

No crap sticking stuffers are back, baby!

And....I'm just going to say it, sometimes I think stockings can get out of control with amount of things AND price points. I always remind myself that stockings aren't the star of the show. I try to keep ours practical & not filled with junk filler toys. Hopefully some of these ideas help!

P.S. I'll move the "no crap stocking stuffers" from last year to a highlight bubble in the front! There's 3 reels total including this one!
