I’ve been eyeing this positive reinforcement reward system from Amazon and finally decided to snag it for Luca. We’ve been using a different toddler reward chart for him, but I like that this one gives him something tangible (the star tokens) to earn vs. us just marking a chart with dry erase marker. I feel like it’ll be more exciting for him, as will the visual of filling the jar to the top! I’ll report back, but if you want to snag it I’m linking here along with the vinyl letters I used to personalize it.

This Costco home organization find is too good not to share! I’m sure pricing varies by location, but I snagged this 24 piece set of heavy duty, Velcro storage straps for $9.99. 🤯 These are great for tidying up and storing all types of items - extensions cords, ladders, appliances, etc. We’re using them in our garage, where we’re working on getting a bunch of stuff mounted on our walls to free up floor space.

I can’t link this exact item, but I will link the individual items within the kit that I could find online! 🫶🏼

Today we started decluttering and organizing our garage! 👏🏼 This isn’t just a spring cleaning project, it’s a project I’ve been dreaming of doing for YEARS. Our garage is small, and it gets messy so so quickly. So we’re finally investing a bit in storage cabinets, garage shelves, and other items to make it more functional (and easier to keep clean!! 😮‍💨).

I knew we had a ton of random little tools, nails, screws, command strips, etc. thrown around Dane’s tookbox, so I snagged this organizer off Amazon to house all of it. You can mount this on a wall, but we plan to put it in the rolling garage cabinet we bought. I’ll link both here along with some of the other garage organizers we plan to try.

Can’t wait to show you all the end result!!! 🙌🏼

I know it’s not spring, but yes… I have started spring cleaning! 🙃 What else is a girl supposed to do when it’s too cold to leave the house?! 🧽🫧

TBH, I’ve tried other window cleaning and even wall cleaning tools that are similar to this. However, this one feels the most sturdy, comes with more washable cleaning pads, and has more functionality. The head bends in all kinds of ways so you can clean baseboards, cabinets, floors, and more. I love a good, multipurpose cleaning gadget - don’t you?! 👏🏼

If you want me to walk through all the various functions of this specific wall and window mop, drop a comment and LMK.

NGL, my nap time cleaning hustle has been STRONG lately. 💪🏼 I know it sounds crazy, but I already started doing some spring cleaning. 🙃 Between the cold keeping us inside and a little vacation on the horizon, I figured I might as well get a head start. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I decided to spend a few bucks on this Amazon window cleaner (which doubles as a baseboard cleaner - more on that another day) so I didn’t have to deal with a ladder. It’s nice that I can use it to get the hard-to-reach spots whether the kids are awake or not. That just makes the process faster…and probably safer. 😅

It was a little awkward to figure out the angles of the head (it’s super adjustable), but once I got the hang of it we were in business! I’m really pleased with what I was able to do. The only thing is I don’t think it’s worth using for lower windows. The handle just gets in the way, and it’s not worth constantly adjusting. That said, I just did the lower windows with a microfiber cloth. ✨

For the price and versatility, I’m really glad I added this to my collection of home cleaning products. 👏🏼

Not sure how I just learned this lint trap cleaning hack, but spreading the good word in the name of safety! 🙃🚫🔥

Are we still working on our garage organization project over here? Yes. 😅 Is it close to being finished? Also yes! 🙌🏼 But in the meantime, I wanted to share this power tool organizer I snagged to get all of ours (and their batteries) off of the top our deep freezer. To say I got tired of moving them is an understatement. 😜

This is under $50, took 15 minutes to build and hang, and cleared up so much of our garage clutter! If you’re working on organizing your garage, I highly recommend. It would make a great Father’s Day gift, too, if you plan ahead for stuff like that. 😉

Here’s a home organization idea for small spaces, areas where you don’t have wall space, or those who rent and can’t mount things! It’s an over-the-door broom organizer. It’ll keep your brooms, mops, and cleaning supplies off the floor and out of the way. I bought one for my basement and it was so easy to assemble. It’s sturdy and well made, too.

These 5-ingredient protein pancake muffins have been a HUGE hit at our house lately! 🤤 When I say our toddlers devour them, I mean it. I’ve made 4 dozen over the past 3 weeks, haha. 🤭 Obviously, Dane and I have eaten some of those. But the kids have definitely put a dent in them!! 🙃

If you want to make them, too, here’s the recipe.

➡️ SAVE this post so you don’t lose it!!

Preheat:
- Your oven to 400 F

On your stovetop, brown and cool:
- 1 lb. breakfast sausage in a skillet  (So far we’ve tried chicken breakfast sausage and pork breakfast sausage. We prefer the pork. I’ve been wanting to try turkey sausage, but the one we typically buy has not been in stock lately. I’ll report back when we’re finally able to buy some!)

In a bowl, mix:
- 2 cups Kodiak pancake mix (The plain buttermilk one.)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1.5 cups water

Add:
- The cooled sausage into the bowl with the batter. Stir to evenly combine.

Pour:
- The completed batter evenly into a greased muffin pan (I use and Avocado Oil spray that works perfectly.)

Bake:
- The muffins for 15 minutes (Or until you can pull a clean toothpick out of them.)

Cool + enjoy! I hope you love them as much as we do. 🫶🏼

WELCOME to my NEW SERIES: Busy Mom Meals.🍴Here I’ll be sharing the easy and affordable meal combinations we make to eat well on a budget! 👏🏼 These won’t be recipes, per say! Just hauls of what we buy to give you meal ideas that you can easily execute at home. Honestly, they’ll likely be so basic that you won’t even need a recipe. That’s just how we roll around here most weeks. 🙃 But I hope they inspire you and make your days a little easier. 🫶🏼

First up ➡️ the smoothie recipe we make on repeat around here! Technically this is more of a snack than a meal, but some days it’s all we get in for breakfast or lunch. 🙃 When the kids won’t eat anything and else, this is what I’ll make because I know they’ll drink every drop.

You can add a cup of spinach for extra nutrients (you won’t even taste it) and/or some vanilla protein powder. We’ve done all of the above, and no matter what we all truly LOVE! 💕

Here are the measurements in case you missed them:
1/2 cup frozen mango 🥭
1/2 cup frozen pineapple 🍍
1 banana 🍌
1 cup coconut water 🥥💦

🛟 SAVE this post and give it a try. LMK what you think!

These silicone molds I found on Amazon are the GOAT for easy breakfast meal prep. 🐐 They make the most perfect egg patties for premade breakfast sandwiches every single time! 🥚🍞 If you want to start breakfast meal prepping, but you’re limited on time and want a quick clean up - these are a must.

You can whip up your eggs any way you’d like, but here’s what I do 👩🏻‍🍳:
* Brown and ground turkey sausage or chicken sausage, then drain any excess liquid
* Spray silicone egg molds with avocado oil
* Fill silicone egg molds with sausage crumbles and top with liquid egg whites
* Add a sprinkle of everything but the bagel seasoning to each egg patty
* Bake the eggs at 350F for about 10-12 minutes, until tops are firm.

Then I lightly toast my English muffins (I like the ones by Dave’s Killer Bread), add 1/2 slice of American cheese, then the egg patty.

Our 3 year old is dealing with some BIG feelings these days, so I snagged this book series off Amazon to try and help. It’s called Team Supercrew, and it’s SO cute. Essentially, it’s rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy and it’s designed to help kids learn how to regulate their emotions in a positive way. I’m excited to add these tools to our toolbox as we try to navigate this stage — it’s been HARD. 😅 But I keep reminding myself it’s just that — a stage. This, too, shall pass! Anyways, I wanted to share for anyone else dealing with big toddler feelings. Maybe these will help? I’ll be sure to report back!!

We’ve been getting these boxes with toddler activities in them for over 6 months, and it’s safe to say we’re obsessed. TBH sometimes we go off the curriculum because Luca gets bored or comes up with other ideas. BUT it’s nice to have something so easy to keep him busy and learning. I love that it’s just one small box. It doesn’t take up much space. And it’s packed with fun! You can do the subscription or buy one-off boxes. And they have options for up to 6 years!

Kids Activities

My ONLY regret?! ⬇️

Not staying longer and doing an extra park day! 🤷🏻‍♀️

Honestly, Disney World is what you make of it. And it’s a completely different experience with toddlers vs. big kids vs. teens. So go when you want to go, live in the moment while you’re there, and if your kids don’t remember it - at least you will! 🫶🏼

PS: Our family Disney outfits are linked here! All super affordable, too.

PPS: If you’re heading to Disney World soon and need tips/advice, drop questions in the comments! I’m an open book and beyond happy to help. I love planning trips and do lots of research, haha! 🤓

Now that we’re back from our vacation I want to share some of the baby and toddler travel products we actually find super useful - like this double stroller travel bag with straps so you can be hands free. That’s essential when you’re trying to get 2 kids, 2 car seats, and carry on bags onto a plane. 😅 You only have so many hands!!

This was the first time we traveled with our double stroller, so the first time using this bag, and it held up great! I’m linking along with my Amazon carry on backpack (it’s so spacious and thoughtfully designed), our Disney approved double stroller, and some other baby and toddler travel essentials we genuinely use and love.

#LTKTravel #LTKWatchNow #LTKKids

This toddler travel hack worked perfectly for our Disney outfits! It saved precious floor space and so much time getting ready - I didn’t have to constantly dig for things or think about what was supposed to go together. I highly recommend if you’re doing Disney World with toddlers or younger kids who need your help around the clock. Best $10 I spent!! 👏🏼

If you’re looking for easy indoor Halloween decorations that are kid friendly, here are some fun ideas from my home to yours! 🖤 Of course I love that they’re low clutter, too, since they play off of my existing decor and don’t add a ton of stuff. 👏🏼

#LTKSeasonal #LTKFamily #LTKHome

Busted out my Halloween tiered tray decorations this week! 🧡 I found these all on Amazon and am so obsessed. I love that they’re all neutral and classic, so they blend well with my current home decor and can be used for years to come. If you’re in the market for indoor Halloween decor, check these out!

#LTKVideo #LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

Believe it or not, this is our main playroom! All of the toys and books are hidden in bins in this large reclaimed wood sideboard and a small coat closet nearby. Since this is in the entryway of our home, we wanted it to function as a play space without looking like one. Nearly 3 years and 2 babies later, and it’s done the trick!
