One Year With Nellie – Our Mini Bernedoodle
Hey, hey, hey everyone! Happy Thursday! We celebrated Nellie’s first birthday a month ago and ever since I was planning to share a post about puppy! So, that’s what I’m going to share here today!
We had no intent on getting a dog – in fact we had told Audrey so many times “we’re never getting a dog?” Fast forward and we both say how it was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. While it’s been a bit of a learning curve, sweet girl has been amazing and fairly easy for us! There are a handful of basic obedience things we need to brush up on (she gets overly excited when she sees people – which is our fault we greet her with over excitement all the time) but for the most part, she is a very good and a total sweetheart – especially with our kids and others.

What’s New With the Kiddo Crew?!
Good morning! I hope you had an amazing long weekend! Not gunna lie I’m bouncing back from a rough week! My husband was out of town all last week – so I was riding solo – and on top of it, JP and I came down with some sickness. I’m pretty sure he had croup, me, I was just tired and fatigued.
Anyway – we are refreshed and on the upswing (hopefully no one else gets sick), but tis the season I suppose!

Our other “medicine cabinet” houses all the things needed for first aid, cuts, band-aids, thermometers, essential oils, vapor bath supplies, etc.

With that being said, I had this on my blogging calendar for today and didn’t want to miss it!

While we’ve had a seemingly mild winter (knock on wood) there are still things we use, do and/or need to “survive” our winters around here. Today, I’m sharing a list of my fav household items that help us “survive” winter!

I shared at the beginning of the month that we are doing NO SPEND JANUARY in our household. After doing a yearly budget review, it’s a chance to reset and find the areas that put the most stress on our budget and impede on our savings plan.
