•Lego love• Nothing brings this kid more joy than endless Lego play. No amount is ever enough and he is always disappointed and needs to be torn away from the stories he’s telling himself. It’s amazing to watch and torture to be the one to deliver the news that he only has 5 mins left before...whatever is next (dinner, bath, bed, etc)#lego #ninjago #myboy #legoplay #fstop

•that face though• I asked a lot of little miss today trekking all over the place in the snow. But then again, I also let her hitch a ride on my back for most of it. I can hardly believe she still fits in that carrier. 💪 ✨ #toddlerwearing #thatfacethough

•snow day• It was such a fun snow day. We spent nearly the entire day outside! Long walk with our neighborhood friends followed by treats & good company at the coffee shop, epic snowball fights and a breathtaking sunset. Welcome winter. ❄️ ✨ #snowday #snowysunset #sunset #neighborhoodvillage

•winter whiplash• When Thanksgiving falls on the last weekend of November there is barely enough time to digest one holiday before we’re thrusted into the next. Especially when December starts off with a bang and in the blink of an eye we’re covered in snow. I had no time to compost my pumpkins before they were snow covered and obviously out of place. 🎃❄️ ✨ #thanksgiving #christmas #winter #snowcoveredpumpkins #winterwhiplash #snowday

•backyard entertainment• It’s Maple tree trimming day, which means my kids will be glued to this window all morning watching people climb our tree and send branches flying down. See stories for more action. 🌳 Fairy skirt and all. 🧚‍♀️ ✨ #treetrimming #norwaymaple #backyardentertainment

•our happy place• “Mama, it’s you & me at the coffee shop and I am eating a blueberry muffin. But did you know there is a secret door under the table?!” -Iris ☕️ ✨ #ourhappyplace #coffeeshop #mygirl #kidsart

•half• Today is my half birthday. So, in honor of this day, I shaved half my head. It’s taking some getting use to, but I think I am going to like it. My kids & husband are super excited about it. You can see it here in his face. 💇🏻‍♀️ ✨ #shorthairdontcare #girlswithshavedsides #halfbirthday

•Sewing Sunday• I am still very amateur in the craft of sewing, but at this point I have taken a few classes, followed a number of patterns, and made a healthy amount of mistakes enough to feel comfortable with making up my own design. I’m quilting these placemats for the upcoming Thanksgiving feast, each with their own mistakes, er, I mean unique detail. If I have enough time, I hope to squeeze out a matching runner as well. (Swipe —> to see one finished)🦃 ✨ #sewing #quilting #modernquilting #placemats #homemade #thanksgiving #makersgonnamake #homemade

•theater• Saw a super sweet performance of Aladdin with our favorite girl performing. We’re starting a fan club. 🎭 ✨ #theater #theaterkids #aladdin #awholenewworld

•unicorn yoga• My littlest yogini. This girl has a healthy amount of strength, confidence, and zen. Some days, I feel I have a lot to learn from her. Namaste, baby girl. 🧘🏻‍♀️ 🙏 #kidsyoga #zenkids #unicornyoga #yoga #sukhasana #zen #meditate @fashionangelsent

•not yet, winter• You see those bright yellow leaves on the tree? That’s right, it’s still fall. I do not want to bundle up for a 20 degrees walk to the square when there are still bright yellow leaves on the trees. 🍁 Back off, winter. It’s not your time just yet. You’ll get your turn.🥶 ✨ #notyetwinter #babyitscoldoutside #thatwindthough

•walk in the woods• Just a few more from our lantern walk this evening. Bringing our light & song into the darkness. 🕯 ✨ #walkinthewoods #lanternwalk #waldorf #waldorflanternwalk #autumnal
