Lately when Jake gets home from work we’ve been taking advantage of the beautiful weather by strapping the kids in the stroller and going for a family walk. Our destination is usually a playground for Baylen to climb around on. There are so many parks in our neighborhood, and since we’re new to the area, …

Easy family friendly recipes my kids will actually eat!
Potbelly Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
For the last month or so I’ve been on the hunt for a really good oatmeal chocolate chip cookie recipe. I mean, all moms should have a go to recipe, don’t ya think? There’s just something so cozy and welcoming about having a jar full of homemade cookies. Anyway, I’ve tried several recipes, some that …
Kid Friendly Frozen Yogurt Drops
If you follow me on Instagram (@amberkuiper) then you probably know by now that our family loves greek yogurt. My brother and sister-in-law got us hooked on it a while back and ever since we’ve always had a steady supply on hand. I think it’s a bit of an acquired taste, but once you fall …
Butterscotch Pudding Cake
Don’t you love those friends who “just get it?” They are intentional and mindful of what you’re going through, knowing exactly what you need during different seasons of life. Today I’d like to talk about a dear friend I have who has just been an absolute peach, bringing us meals every week and listening as …
Piece of Cake Spaghetti Bake
Jake’s mom stayed with us for the past couple days while he was out of town on business, and she was kind enough to make meals for us! She always has the best ideas for recipes that are simple to make but taste great, and last night’s meal was no exception. This Spaghetti Bake is …
Quick Chicken Cacciatore

Overnight Oats (Three Ways)
If you’re a mom then you know how easy it can be to forget to feed yourself throughout the day! Breakfast lately seems to be especially easy for me to skimp on. My days of waking up before the kids are non existent as of late since I try to sneak in every extra bit …
Strawberry Lemonade Fluff
This morning I had to go to the dentist for a routine cleaning. Ugh, how I hate the dentist. If it weren’t for my husband who is the one in the house who prioritizes our dental health, I probably would have postponed my visit until who knows when. I’ve always had bad luck at the …
Strawberry Balsamic Chicken Salad
I’m going to start this post by admitting that I’m not usually much of a salad lover. Over the years I’ve tried time and time again to become one of those dainty health conscious women who simply order a salad when they’re out to eat. Unfortunately, most of those times I ended up wishing that …
Cheater’s Monkey Bread
Jake’s been off of work since the girls were born, and I am loving every minute with our family of five. Even though we’re walking around in a bit of a sleepy haze these days, our precious time at home has felt like a bit of a staycation. I love that we’ve been able to …
