Start a New Holiday Tradition: 30 Day Elf on a Shelf Calendar and FREE Template!

Are you a family who does Elf on a Shelf or are you looking to start a new tradition this year? We're bringing back an Oldie but Goodie post for you to be inspired with!

I always swore that I wouldn't jump on the Elf On A Shelf bandwagon but last year I just couldn't resist! I found the cutest little elf at Costco and decided, why not?! Little Mister had so much fun with "Sam" our elf last year and I can't wait for him to make his appearance again on the 1st! Wanting to be prepared I decided to create my own calendar to follow starting 30 days prior to Christmas!

Kid'Sleep Giveaway!

Welcome to the Kid'Sleep Prize Package giveaway, sponsored by Claessens'Kids and hosted by Thrifty Nifty Mommy and Viva Veltoro.

The Kid’Sleep Moon is part of a line of sleep training and time teaching/time organization products invented by a father of 6! The Kid’Sleep Moon has many benefits, as a sleep trainer and night light for young children and an alarm clock for older children. It helps young children have an understanding of when it's time to get out of bed and when it's not. It is a great tool for nighttime self regulation, and the result is that both parents and children get more sleep.

I Love Thanksgiving! DIY Thanksgiving Turkey Candle Holders

It's time for another Mommy's Obsession's resurfacing post! I know, I know, I apologize for the lack of new content but as you probably know Little Boy has arrived and to be honest, right now my time is devoted to snuggling a newborn rather than writing, so I hope you will continue to be patient with me!

I love love love Thanksgiving so it's only fitting that I bring back my DIY Thanksgiving Turkey Candle Holder post for you! This super fun, super simple project will give you and the kids something to do while you're stuck in the house on a rainy November weekend!

My Must Haves For The Hospital {Before + After Childbirth}

As many of you may be aware, our precious little man arrived on October 18th. He is an absolute joy, breastfeeding like a champion and sleeping like a baby (pun intended). I was so anxious for his arrival that I will admit that I packed my hospital bag way earlier than necessary, especially since this little guy only came one day early, but I found that the items I had packed worked out absolutely perfectly. I was a little worried that some of them wouldn't have been used and I would have found them unnecessary during our 24-48 stay, but much to my surprise I used every single thing that I packed!

I tend to be a bit of an over packer but if I had to do it over again, there are a handful of items that I would not want to be without!
