Time for Change

Leave a comment

If you are coming to us from our old family blog, thank you, if you are finding us for the first time then welcome!

I decided it was time for a change, after blogging on our at blog for almost 4 years I was growing tired of the same old “here’s what we did this week” or the monthly photo dump. The blog had become an extension of my Facebook and instagram, and to be honest it was boring (to me anyways). I felt tied down to only writing about our family.. so I figured why not start something that gave me a little more creative freedom.

I have always loved to write and I find it so relaxing. It doesn’t matter if I am writing about potty training (which we are gearing up to do for a second time) or if I am sharing our latest adventures at the zoo, I truly enjoy it. I am looking forward to this new space and being able to share our favorite toys, food, crafts and anything else we do!

Again, thank you for checking us out 🙂
