    a trip to the hands-on house in Lancaster, PA

    We took a trip to the Hands-on House Children’s Museum in Lancaster, PA recently. I had taken Holden to the Please Touch Museum in Philadelphia when she was about 18 months old and we had a lot of fun, so I was psyched to find a kids’ play museum so…

    ditching cable and streaming TV

    When I moved last fall, I chose not to bring my cable package with me. Since having kids, my personal TV-watching time has decreased, but I couldn’t give up television entirely because, yes, I let my kids watch TV sometimes (!) and because my dad (aka my daycare) appreciates being…

    on working, mom guilt and saying “no”

    Coming down from a very busy week that was filled with various work-related and networking activities, I wanted to share a bit about some things I’ve been struggling with lately.  If you follow me on Instagram (which you totally should, btw), you’ll see a mix of photos, from what I’m…

    A Trip to the North Museum

    Holden and I were recently invited to check out the newly-renovated North Museum of Nature and Science in Lancaster, PA. I was excited to have an afternoon to spend as “just the girls,” though my excitement was checked as soon as we got in the car:    Luckily, she perked…

    SPRAY PAINT ALL THE THINGS!

    Have I shared with you yet my love for spray paint? Today, I found some crappy old folding TV tray tables in my basement. Rather than following my first instinct of tossing them, I instead decide to spray paint them fun colors to give them new life. I’ve become slightly…
