How We’re Building a Smart House for the Holidays

Two years ago to this very day, our family broke ground to build our home on a plot of land nestled between a field of planted pines, and over the next year we watched the house that we spent countless hours designing and planning being built from the ground up. Fast forward to this moment in time, and I stand amazed at the home we’ve created. It’s inside walls are adorned with photos of our beautiful children, the rooms are filled with love and laughter, and there’s a voice ringing throughout the air that helps keep us all laughing, entertained and running efficiently with a simple, single command.

The Simple Choice I Made For My Baby That Brought Me Peace of Mind

Before becoming a mother a little over 3 years ago, I thought I had this whole parenting thing down-pat. I read all the books, watched all the how-to’s and could spat off ALL of the things I was going to do to make sure my baby was getting only the best in every area across the board. They say the ones who always know the most about kids are the ones that don’t have them. I always crack up at that, because I was in that boat for sure! I thought I knew it all, but then our little bundle of joy entered the world, and the whole game changed.

Meet Tuckerville’s Tiniest Conductor at the Thomas & Friends Super Station

September 29, 2018 by Laura Tucker Leave a Comment

It was bright and early on a Saturday morning, and the fog was just beginning to lift as the sun started to peak over the horizon. Tuckerville’s tiniest train conductor was just beginning to emerge from her sleep to get ready for a long day of endless playtime – a job that is well suited for a child with a beautifully wild imagination just like hers.

She lets out a yawn, wipes the sleepy out of her eyes and runs down the hallway to my bedroom to claim her spot between her daddy and I. She nestles into the covers and wiggles her little toes against ours as she gently reminds us that the sun is awake, and therefore everyone in the house should be awake, too.

It’s been 2 weeks since we welcomed the newest little Tucker tot into the world, and finally being able to bring her home into her new nursery brought us so much joy on so many levels! While her first encounter with her room was seeing a perfectly polished nursery with everything in it’s place, it was definitely a different story just a few weeks prior when I was bringing all of big sister’s newborn and baby clothes down from the attic!…

Yesterday afternoon my office space was taken over by the sound of the sweetest laughter and giggles coming from these two peas in a pod. I stuck my head in to see what was going on, and found this beautiful sight right before my eyes. My husband and little girl were entranced by the brand new book we recently received in the mail, and upon further inspection I saw right away why their smiles were as big as they were!

DIY Outdoor Water Activity Play Table

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Banana Boat®. The opinions and text are all mine.

Just a few weeks ago, my family took a much needed two-day getaway vacation to a large city just a few hours across the state from us. My husband and I were in desperate need of a little quality time together, but we also wanted to make sure the trip was full of fun activities for our little girl to enjoy. We heard about this amazing children’s science discovery museum that was in the heart of downtown, so we packed up and headed over to see what it was all about!

Growing up, Easter was always such an incredibly fun time in our household. We’ve always celebrated the death and resurrection of Christ Jesus (the most important time of the year in our opinion,) and my mother would often spare no expense in making sure that all of her children had an Easter Basket that was overflowing with sweet treats, money eggs and the cutest little seasonal gifts to fit our personalities. Running downstairs and finding our baskets before church service was always such a treat, and the annual Easter egg hunt that soon followed was always a memorable experience! I always knew I wanted to keep these fun traditions alive when I had children of my own, and for my little one’s 3rd Easter celebration, we’re going big!…

With all of this warm weather we’ve been having, I’m definitely ready for Spring to make it’s grand debut! Right now, everything outside is coated in that miserable yellow pollen, but I know that soon the bees will start buzzing and flowers will finally bloom! While Spring isn’t exactly my favorite season (tornado season kind of ruins it for me,) I absolutely LOVE all things Easter – especially out annual egg hunt every year!

The long, dry winter season is heading towards our neck of the woods, and I’ve been going into overdrive trying to make sure my family is prepared – especially my 2 1/2 year old bundle of joy. It seems that no matter the preventative matters I take, though, someone in our house is going to end up not feeling their best and winter is going to find a way to steal our sunshine!

Sharing the Luv with my Expecting Bestie!

This review was made possible by iConnect Influencer Management, Luvs was compensated for my participation in this campaign, but all opinions are 100% mine.

When one of my very best friends since middle school (who just so happens to also be my cousin-in-law) shared with me that she was expecting her first child (due February 2018) I was over the moon excited! I’ve been anxiously awaiting the day that I could chat all-things-baby with her, and getting to celebrate the arrival of her son in just a few short months has me giddy to no end!
