Curious From the Start with Houghton Mifflin Harcourt

March 5, 2016 By meredith Leave a Comment

This post was sponsored by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central. As most of you know, I've got three little ones {that are growing up WAAAAY too fast and need to slow down}.  And I'm also sure that most of you are well aware that little minds are very curious minds at an extremely early age.  They seem to constantly be discovering a new way … [Read more...]

DIY Portable Sand Bin

April 15, 2015 By meredith Leave a Comment

You guys.  It's been raining FOREVER in Georgia.  Honestly, I don't mind rain.  A little here and there is awesome.  I think it's definitely helped wash away a lot of our lovely pollen that comes out this time of year, and for that I'm grateful.  But, I'm ready for some dry days so I can take the kids outside without having to avoid massive puddles.  We want to ride our bikes and run and go to the … [Read more...]

50 More Easter Basket Gift Ideas

March 20, 2015 By meredith 1 Comment
