May 6, 2012 By Meghan Leave a Comment

My bathroom makeover has begun and I've started with some of the accessories that I wanted to build the room around. The inspiration for our bathroom formed from this pin on pinterest for Blue Mason Jars turned into soap dispensers. There are a few ways that I found on Pinterest that you can do them including with mod podge and food coloring or glass paint. I decided to buy the glass paint because it was so cheap and I knew that these glass jars were going to be around water. Here is what … [Read more...]

I love babywearing. It keeps your sweet baby close. But what I love most about it is the freedom of hands free baby travel! My favorite part of a new baby is the way that they cuddle on your chest.

Lots of hospital visits that made me say, wow I can't believe he survived that. How did he not break anything when a CAR hit him? But this time is different. He got in a fight with my bigger dog over who knows what. The big dog got a hold of his right front arm and wouldn't let go. While he was fighting his shoulder blade broke under the … [Read more...]

Sweet Baby Dreams

April 26, 2012 By Meghan 6 Comments

I know what my dreams are each morning. For Big JaMonkey to love her Sister as much as her little heart can. For Little JaMonkey to grow out of this SVT mess, for no alarms to sound all day long and she sleeps for at least 5 hours one night.

I keep her bed inches from my face so I can hear if she is breathing. Her monitor is next to … [Read more...]
