an activity a day keeps the boredom away

Since we've been back from our month-long vacation...sitting around the house isn't nearly as exciting as it was when we were surrounded by grandmas and grandpas, aunties and uncles and cousins galore!

It's just the two of us (C+Me) most of the day so I've been trying to make a big effort in getting C outside for a few hours as well as doing an activity at home each day :)

I did some searching and compiled a huuuuuge list of activities that should last us at least through the winter (message me if you'd like it. It's in spreadsheet form. I'm a huge nerd.) I'll be posting our favorites each week (at least that's the plan. I'm kind of a flakey blogger ;)

Here's what we did today...
Fan Fort!!
You need...
-a fan (or two in our case because they were so tiny)
-a duvet cover (or two flat sheets with three sides fastened together with duct tape, clothes pins, etc.)
-favorite books, toys, pillows and other fun things
Lay your duvet cover on a flat, comfy surface. Toss all of your fun things into the "fort". Place your fan at the opening of the fort (this should go without saying but make sure your duvet does not cover the back of the fan). Carefully snuggle your babe and yourself into the fort. Turn on the fan and have fun!
C had a BLAST!! We were in there for a couple hours just reading, doing puzzles, having tickle fights, playing with dinos, and taking a little power nap.
What are some fun things you're doing with your kiddos this summer??

It's been a while but I'm back!


Thanks to my lovely insta followers, I've decided to start blogging again! I used to LOVE blogging but after I had my son, I kind of forgot about it!

I got on a few nights ago and gave my blog a little facelift and read through old posts...I can't believe how many things I posted that I completely forgot about! Now I'm super sad that I missed out on blogging the past year...and the first year of my sons life! But no need for sorrow. Better late than never, right?

Take a minute and look around. Even though my last post was over a year ago, it might be new to you! And don't forget to leave some love, I love hearing from my readers!

P.s. If you have a blog I would love to follow you! Please leave your link in the comments :)
