a day at the pumpkin patch

October 17, 2017

Fall in Texas is pretty amazing. Yes, it’s been hot, but we have a window of time where the weather is perfect and there is a slight cool breeze in the air. We took the boys to the Dallas Arboretum to run around the pumpkin patch last week. Last year, William was only 9-months old! This year, he was running around like crazy, touching all the pumpkins, running on the hay bales and hugging every kid in sight. Henry, on the other hand, slept the entire time!

It’s so fun (and kinda crazy) getting out of the house with two boys. Especially one toddler who seems to have endless energy! Thankfully, the stroller we got when we had William converts into a double stroller and the tandem configuration is so nice! The stroller is the same width as it was with just one baby, but now we are transporting two. William loves being out in front leading the way, and having Henry riding right in front of me allows me to keep a close eye on him. It makes getting out and about with two babies about as easy as that can be!

when to transition your toddler to a bed

October 16, 2017

I had good intentions of getting William transitioned into his big boy bed before Henry arrived, but I didn’t really know when the right time to do it was! He sleeps so good in his crib and I really like the idea of keeping him in one spot. I don’t have to worry about him wandering around his room/the upstairs while we are sleeping. Plus, I knew that with a newborn comes lack of sleep and I thought this transition may bring lack of sleep before Henry arrived! So, here we are. William is still in the crib and Henry is still in a bassinet in our room. Which brings me to my question; when is the right time to transition your toddler to a bed?

William isn’t climbing out of his crib, he takes long naps and sleeps twelve hours a night, so when do I rock the boat? We have the bed set up in his room, he loves to read and snuggle in it, but when I ask him if he wants to sleep in his bed, he says no. Our timing is getting shorter and shorter because we are planning to move Henry out of our room and into their shared room after we are done traveling and before the Holidays.

So when did you mommas decide to do it?! Would love to hear your thoughts and any suggestions – as we are getting closer to transition William to his big boy bed!

In the meantime, we thought we would share his little space in their room. We are so happy with the way it turned out and we think William is too!

PS: We have a DockATot Grand and bed rails to try out once we actually transition him!

camo sweatshirt

October 12, 2017

Happy Thursday! It finally feels like fall in Dallas – it’s been a long time coming! A cold front came through on Monday night and the past few days it’s actually been cool enough to wear sweaters! Camo is pretty much everywhere these days and we love it. This camo sweatshirt is so soft and comfy. It has lived in look and feel that makes me want to live in it! It looks great with jeans, but just as cute with a pair of yoga pants and slip-on sneakers.

This weekend I am heading to Seaside to celebrate my future sister-in-law’s bachelorette party! I am so excited for a fun weekend at the beach, celebrating her and their upcoming marriage. We have a full weekend planned and I can hardly wait for a glass of rosé on the beach! We hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
