Recycled Spice Jars

Recycled Spice Jars

Sep 12, 2016 /

…

When Mike and I got married we were gifted a spice rack set (Thanks Webber family!)  similar to this.

We used some of the spices but in my effort to declutter it was put into a cabinet and forgotten about until last weekend when I was attempting to free up some space in our kitchen.

The spices were 4 years old so I decided it was time to throw those out, but I knew I wanted to reuse the glass jars.

I washed the jars and lids, grabbed my black sharpie and some rubbing alcohol and got to work.

I also went down to the basement to dig through our office stuff searching from my IKEA spice racks. They used to hold my craft paint and mason chairs before the office became a nursery. I’ll spare you the photo of where all that office stuff is now… IT’S A MESS, sut you can see the racks in use in the back of this old photo…

I had Mike drill some holes, hang my shelves, and then it was ready for my newly cleaned and freshly filled spice jars.

I love it – and I freed up some cabinet space and was able to reorganize so it’s a little more functional than before.

I hope you can find something to recycle today.

Happy Day!

Finding Balance and Ramblings

Sep 10, 2016 /

…

The baby is napping.

I’m (dare I say) pumping. Multitasking is my life nowadays.

Mike is working.

The mornings when I get Dwayne down for his nap approximately 1 hour and 32 minutes after he wakes are good mornings. Babies are so predictable, but so unpredictable.

We’re in the middle of “sleep training” and we’ve opted for a huge fridge calendar because it’s the only way to keep track of the others schedule without missing anything.

Life right now is messy  and every week I tell myself that it will start to feel more balanced soon. Maybe?

Probs not, but it’s so good anyway.

Also, the weather changed overnight and all the windows and doors are open in our house. Amazing.


Like I said, so good.

Happy day!

4 Months Old

…

Dwayne and I just finished his monthly photoshoot in his crib and on his rug. We were having a grand time and I snapped some classics…

We had a guest join us towards the end and this hilarious progression happened.

After that final photo Dwayne grabbed a chunk of fur and the moment was quickly over. These two have quite the relationship ahead of them… So excited for that!

I can’t believe Dwayne is already 4 months old. He has made our life as sweet as ever.
