Do-It-Yourself Valentine’s Mini Photo Session For Your Baby/Child
Want to do something different this year for your kids on Valentine’s Day? How about an experience rather than a gift? This is the second year that I’ve done a Valentine’s Day themed photo shoot for my kids. Now I’m not suggesting you go to an expensive photographer to get portraits done. Instead, I’m suggesting that you take some time and do the photos yourself. Getting cute print-worthy portraits with your own camera isn’t as hard as it sounds. I promise.

Rudolph Reindeer Gluten-Free Cupcakes How-To
There were many variations of the always adorable Rudolph the Red nosed reindeer desserts popping up around the Internet right around Christmas. My seven year old son and I loved them so we decided to do our own Rudolph dessert. Since my son is allergic to many ingredients, and has EE, we settled on chocolate gluten-free cupcakes. We used the Betty Crocker gluten-free chocolate cake mix because it’s easy and turns out awesome every time! My posts here will show you that I’m all for easy and convenient yet tasty!
