An afternoon baby shower fit for a princess.
I'm Kristin. I am a wife, designer, Christian and for now a SAHM. My husband and I are parents to three kids- Dylan Archer, Kyler Jude and Noelle Rose. Despite the name, this isnโt a mommy blog and you wonโt find sponsored content here. My target audience is actually my children when they grow up if they wish to reflect on their childhood so everything I share has them at the forefront of my mind and secondly those who wish to follow along my journey. I created this space to document my family's adventures and lessons I've learned along the way. The Mom Jungle is a modern interpretation of both the family newsletter and scrapbook.
I call this The Mom Jungle because motherhood is fun and messy, filled with laughter and sometimes heartacheโฆ it truly is a jungle out there!
All in DIY
An afternoon baby shower fit for a princess.
Today was the day we celebrated Dylan's 1st birthday with our families. I vividly remember his arrival like it was yesterday. Where has the time gone? Yet at the same time, it seems like he has always been a part of our family. It's impossible to imagine life without him!
Although I think that love should be celebrated all 365 days a year, there is something magical about a day devoted to love. Granted, Valentines is mostly a commercialized event, but I love love.
Confession- I bought a jumbo pumpkin weeks ago with every intention of making a jack-o'-lantern and it's still in my car! Teething and sickness have rocked our household, and then I stumbled upon these cooking pumpkins for a whopping .45 cents for a pack of 6! Way less time and mess, but still trying to keep things fun & festive... plus anything miniature-sized is cute, right?
Halloween is just around the corner. I personally don't like to focus on the scary aspect of this holiday, but rather celebrate dressing up, interacting with neighbours and of course the CANDY!
It was important to me that I make Dylan's Halloween costume. I have ZERO seamstress skills, but with a little imagination and LiquidStitchโข, I made this baby sushi costume. I can assure you no babies were eaten as a result of this project!
When I was pregnant, I loved the nesting phase. One of the most fun aspects of that was decorating my baby's nursery!
I love being married to a handy man! This past Christmas he made me this rustic, shabby-chic barn board headboard.
