Our kids’ fav building toys: https://www.pbfingers.com/best-building-toys-for-kids/

As a mom of three boys ages 6, 8 and 11, I’ve watched our boys’ toy preferences shift and evolve, but one constant theme I’ve noticed when it comes to toys that have stood the test of time in our house is that these toys almost all have an open-ended building component. If a toy set involves stacking, creating and building, our boys are all in and not just for a month or two but for YEARS. In today’s blog post, I am sharing a short list of our kids’ fav building toys that have been tested, loved and fully approved by our boys. I hope they inspire lots of fun and creativity in your house!

At the end of July, we headed south to Key West for a week of outdoorsy sweatin’ hot fun!! â˜€ïžđŸŒŽ We filled our days with fishing, scuba diving, key lime pie eating, exploring, snorkeling, a parrot rescue visit, a trip to a butterfly conservatory, aquarium fun and more! I recapped our whole trip on the blog for anyone who might like more details — just comment “Key West” below and I’ll send it your way!!

How did we get here? How is my last baby off to kindergarten? Everyone warned me it would go so, so fast and they were painfully, acutely right. Even though I knew it would go fast because I had the proof standing right in front of me — proof in the form of toddlers who were no longer babies and big kids who were no longer toddlers — these milestone moments have a way of knocking me off my feet and, truthfully, they hurt. They hurt in the way it hurts when a birthday rolls around and you realize you’ll never have access to the 4-year-old version of your kid again. They hurt in the way your heart squeezes when your child stops saying “lello” and replaces it with the correct but oh-so-grown-up pronunciation “yellow.” Part of me thought today would be a day I’d feel relief. I’ve spent more than 11 years cramming the non-motherhood pieces of my life into small pockets of “me time;” brief windows of free time I’d grasp through nap times, preschool drop offs, gym childcare and occasional help. It felt intense, impossible at times, stressful for sure but, for the most part, absolutely overflowing with joy. It never felt possible for me to have a to-do list with everything checked off but it also didn’t matter because LOOK at what I got to pour my heart into everyday: A family I love in a way I will never be able to capture into words. I read this quote recently that I’ve been thinking about a lot: “The hardest part about parenting is raising the one thing you can’t live without to be able to live without you.” Ooph isn’t that the truth? Because that is the goal, right? To raise kind, confident, loving, hard-working, independent, thoughtful humans who can go out into the world on their own and make a positive impact. Ryan and I have repeatedly talked about how this phase of life we’re living right now is golden to us. We’re holding onto it hard while trying to get better at letting go, little by little. But it sure does wreck me sometimes. For now, I’ll just sit here with wet eyes, feeling so grateful for motherhood and the way I’ve been given the gift of a love so big can make me ache so much. ❀

Walmart cabinet we’ve had and loved for 3+ years!!! https://walmrt.us/3PFwKxQ It’s been such a good purchase for our family and we use them to hide our kids’ crafty stuff, games, puzzles, etc. And they’re on super sale right now!

Take me baaack! Finally getting around to sharing pics from our trip to SĂŁo Miguel in the Azores! We selected this destination for a myriad of reasons — a stunning natural landscape, incredible hiking, animal experiences, whale watching + a place largely untouched by mass tourism — and it blew us away!! I just shared waaay too many details about our trip on the blog and if you’d like to read more about it, comment “Azores Itinerary” below and l’ll share it with you (what we loved, didn’t enjoy, and all the nitty gritty)! ☀đŸȘ»đŸŒŠđŸ«đŸđŸŒżđŸ

For my full Lisbon recap comment “Lisbon recap” below and I’ll send you my detailed blog post! // We spent a very unexpected 2 days in Lisbon, Portugal en route to the Azores when our travel plans got derailed. Thankfully YOU guys came through and helped us plan a wonderful adventure in Lisbon! If you’re gonna get stranded somewhere, I highly recommend Portugal! đŸ™ƒđŸ‡”đŸ‡č Sharing some of our favorites from our whirlwind time in Lisbon âžĄïž Chiado Hotel (very family friendly, walkable to shops, restaurants and sites), OceanĂĄrio de Lisboa (aka the aquarium — our 10 & 7yo’s fav thing we did), PastĂ©is de Nata (Portuguese custard tarts we could not stop eating), Time Out Market (a great spot we liked enough to visit 2x with a wide variety of incredibly delicious food), a tuk tuk tour (we flew all over Lisbon for an hour and loved this warp-speed way to see the city + learn more about the history), making a game of spotting artwork by Artur Bordalo II (he’s a Portuguese street artist famous for creating massive three-dimensional animal sculptures and murals made entirely out of recycled/discarded materials — I included a pic of his panda here!), tinned sardines + octopus (so good), wandering the streets just to explore and see what popped out at us, a quick day trip to Sintra (a beautiful and charming town 45 min from Lisbon with castles well worth visiting) and gelato, of course! 💛
