Currently Loving at Smocked Auctions

Posted by Katie Grabner on

The other day I posted a few goodies I received from Smocked Auctions. A handful asked to share the links to what I had gotten. This inspired me to put together some of my current favorite pieces from their site. I hope this is helpful for you when shopping for your little ones this Spring. They have some really cute items for Easter too. Enjoy and let me know if you get anything!!   JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser. Reactivate it to view this content.

Posted by Katie Grabner on

One day you may find yourself in my predicament, 'I grew up skiing, my husband grew up skiing, we now have kids.. and we want to go skiing.' When is the right time to start your little ones?

PicassoTiles 82 Piece Creativity Set Glowing Review

Posted by Katie Grabner on

                                            We received our first set of PicassoTiles for Christmas when Parker was a little over two years old. I immediately loved the concept of them and they had already come recommended from a friend who had a daughter 5 months older than Parker. I ended up setting them aside for a few months, thinking he may be too young to understand them. Once we ended up opening them, Parker played with them so much and understood how to connect them so well, that I regretted...
