Throwing it back to Lily’s first trip for the first day of Spooky Season 🎃

We have been telling her that Mickey’s House is still closed but it’s breaking my heart. She’s been to Disney every Halloween season and after her telling everyone I’m going to Mickey’s House for Halloween I’m giving in and I’m brining her for Spooky Season!

That being said..... I need all of the mask tips. She’s so used to being able to sit and snack in the stroller. I’m REALLY nervous about that. Help me out toddler moms... give me all the tips!

𝑺𝒑𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒓-𝑳𝒊𝒍𝒚 𝑹𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒚 𝒕𝒐 𝑺𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑫𝒂𝒚!

This toy box from saved Lily’s bedroom from being overtaken by stuffed animals 🤣 I was able to shove 20 of them in there.

Seriously I love products because they come with the best directions. They were clear and step by step. I was able to put it together myself in about 20 minutes.

Another reason why I love their products is they always put safety first. The lid is soft close so no littles are getting fingers smashed. This is what’s always kept me from buying a toy box. Thank you for putting our kids first!

Wishing we were at Hogwarts but Gymnastics will have to do 🤷🏻‍♀️

Lily is very particular about her clothes. She only wants to wear stuff with her favorite characters on it. This Leo from is perfect and she has so many different prints to chose from.

Spider Lily 🕷

Superheroes aren’t just for boys! Lily’s favorite superhero is Spider-Man. We watch the move at least once a day and she runs around the house shooting her webs.

This Toy Box was the perfect addition to her room. Does it match mommy’s perfectly styled room? Nope. Does it make Lily extremely happy when she sees it? YES! Let them be LITTLE ❤️

My handsome nephew joined the family last week. Welcome to the world Lochlann, you are so loved ✨

The custom swaddle set is from . Destiny personally designed everything with exactly what we wanted. The print is clear, detailed, and the fabric is soft. I would highly recommend this set for any expecting momma.

Our favorite Disney resort is The Yacht Club and this is the reason right here. There is nothing more magical than waking up and walking a across a bridge into France. It’s so peaceful in the mornings and you can just relax and enjoy your pastries. Pro tip: parts of the France pavilion including the bakery are open before the rest of the world showcase.

Here you see a tiny Buzz In her natural habitat. Looking to see which toy she can sucker mom into bringing home.

I’ve heard of people giving their kids gift cards for the shops and once it’s gone it’s gonna. Or the one toy per park/ day. Lily likes to check everything out and browse around but she isn’t to bad with the asking yet. Mostly I’m the problem because I like to shop. How do you manage the shops with your little ones?

She’s a whole 𝕄𝕆𝕆𝔻 🤦🏻‍♀️

The new normal for us has been pretty hard on this little one. We are still quarantining and have two families that we interact with. Our immediate families are in other states hours away.
It’s been pretty isolating for her and we just made the decision to pull her out of school.

The one activity she has left is gymnastics. There is only 2 other littles in her class and they sanitize everything.

It is hard to see our own world change but it’s even harder to watch the kids go through it. I know she’s sick of me bc who wants to play with mom 🤣 I think her and I might take another little trip to the coast for some fresh sea air and a change of scenery.

Who knew a bookcase from would be her favorite new play area 🤷🏻‍♀️

This shelf was soooo easy to put together. All of the parts came separated and they included an actual screw driver which I LOVED! My favorite aspect is that it comes with a safety mount for the wall and has a built in location for it on the back of the bookcase. It shows that they take safety seriously and I didn’t have to shop for one that might not be the right fit. Definitely recommending this one to you guys!

When you take the time to style a bookcase and it quickly becomes Tiana’s Kitchen 🤷🏻‍♀️

Lily’s room is slowly but surely becoming a big kid room. This Better Homes & Gardens Bookcase from was the perfect addition. You can fit two fabric bins per shelf and is tall enough to fit her larger hardcover books. Lily loves that she can reach everything and doesn’t have to ask for help when picking out her books.

Art Class 🎨

I know we’ve all been trying to keep these kids busy while they aren’t in school. This easel has been a great addition to our at home art and learning. It’s a great way to set up an “invitation to play” in your home. An invitation to play is arranging the environment so that invites your kids to come to an area in your home to explore and use the materials provided in independent play.

The white board is also a magnet board and it comes with a set of wooden letter magnets. I absolutely love that it has bins to hold her markers and magnets. This way she can just walk over and get to work.

This is amazing! Thank you to Disney for moving forward and switching out the theming for this ride. Small steps but important ones. The concept art is gorgeous and my Tiana loving girl is going to be sooooo happy!

Today we are thrilled to share that Splash Mountain – at both Disneyland Resort in California and Walt Disney World Resort in Florida – will soon be completely reimagined with a new story inspired by an all-time favorite Walt Disney Animation Studios film, “The Princess and the Frog.” Learn more about what Imagineers have in development: https://bit.ly/3g19B5g

My little Anna coloring her heart away on her Frozen 2 easel!

Absolutely in LOVE with this easel. Lily loves the “magic” when the markers wipe away. The easel came with matching fabric bins and a set of wooden ABC magnets. It was easy enough for me to put together by myself 😳 I know it’s a miracle because I’m not handy AT ALL!

I was so excited when I first got my pass. It’s so nice to be able to have a long weekend and decide...hey let’s go to a Disney. With everything that’s going on with the pandemic I don’t know that we will be able to make it back this year. Telling a 3 year old to social distance isn’t really possible 🤣 Maybe I’ll head back in the fall....who knows. I do know that I miss my happy place and I can’t wait til Lily and I can sit and watch Festival of Fantasy together in person and not on you tube. Have you decided if you’re going to head back in once the parks are open again?

HAPPY 8th Birthday Leighton🎉 ⁣
⁣
My niece turns 8 today and I can’t EVEN 😭 Living so far away from her has been hard. I’m thankful we can coordinate our trips so that we get to spend time together at the most magical place on earth. She’s the best big cousin and takes such good care of Lily. We are so lucky to have her in our lives. I can’t wait for all of our future adventures together.....and yes I did promise to bring you to a Paris one day.....and no I won’t forget❤️

Lily’s First French Braid ❤️

I definitely need to practice my braiding skills on a squiggling toddler 🤣 This has actually been a lifesaver and no more fighting over putting her hair up. Ever since doing this she wants an Elsa braid and will wear if for two days before I need to redo. What are some good YouTube videos to watch so I can step up my braid game?

May the 4th be with you 💫

No trip to Galaxy’s Edge would be complete without the perfect outfit. Thanks for always having the best fandom gear.

For us Disney isn’t just rides and parades. We have play dates and visit with our friends. We get to sleep at grandmas house and ride Dumbo with papa. We get to have quality time with our friends and family we don’t see because we live out of state. So not only are we missing Disney we are missing our family. Hopefully we will be reunited with everyone soon! Stay home & stay safe 💕
