homeschooling with a newborn 👩🏽‍🍼📓 When I was pre homeschooling with a newborn 👩🏽‍🍼📓

When I was pregnant, the thought of homeschooling with a newborn made me nervous. I didn’t know how I was going to balance my time. But by the grace of God, homeschooling and adjusting to the newborn stage has been going well. Our days are NOT perfect and some days are rough, but we’re getting it done! Here’s what has been helping us successfully homeschooling with a newborn:

🌸I’ve been using the Wild Bird baby wrap! Baby boy is comfy and sleep when he’s wrapped. So during that time I’m able to teach.

🌸we’re prioritizing reading and math for a couple months. Reading.com has been a great resource and we use The Good and the Beautiful curriculum for math. Also we keep the lessons short. 

🌸we took a couple weeks off from homeschooling to just focus on adjusting as a family of 5. Give yourself grace during this time. 

🌸we get outside daily for stroller walks. During this time I can review what we’re learning. Also getting outside has been so refreshing being postpartum! 

🌸 I have the mindset that this is just a short season of the newborn stage. Our homeschool days look different and that’s okay #postpartum #homeschoolmom #homeschoolmomlife

I’m 3 weeks postpartum and most days I’m in athletic wear or pajamas but today I’m switching things up! The weather is beautiful and I’m in the mood for a spring inspired look. I decided on this blue stripped dress and my perfume is by Elizabeth Arden. This floral scent is perfect for spring and smells so good. During this postpartum season, I’m finding happiness in the simple things like putting on a pretty dress and taking a walk outside with my baby.

Protect your home with radon testing #radon #ad Protect your home with radon testing #radon 

#ad I’ve been a homeowner for 10 years! This is where so many memories have been made with my family. We are also a homeschool family, so lots of our days are spent at home. Something I didn’t know when we bought our home is that radon testing should be done before purchasing. Radon is a naturally occurring gas that’s harmful. Over time, breathing in high levels of radon can be harmful to your lungs. So we’ve been taking steps to make sure our home is protected. At-home radon testing kits are affordable and easy to use. Protecting your home means protecting the people you love. 

If you’re a homeowner or will be buying a home soon, make sure to test your home for radon! @lungassociation You can also get more information at lung.org with the American Lung Association

Spring is right around the corner and I love finding ways to give the rooms my home a simple refresh.  The natural sunlight is so beautiful in my dining room. These linen blend curtains from Homerilla really elevate the dining room. The color is ivory white which is the perfect neutral blend and the quality is amazing! Having some tea early in the morning is my favorite way to start my mornings.

Valentines Day Snack Boards for Kids

Valentine’s Day is a day to express love and gratitude toward our loved ones. It’s been a tradition in our family to do love themed activities for a week leading up to February 14th. This year, we focused on fun snack boards. My kids are at the age where they are always asking me for snacks. So I figured I would start creating themed snack boards for my kids. The snack boards that I create are typically simple with minimal snacks. So here are some fun Valentine’s Day themed snack boards for kids. 

  • Tic Tac Toe SnackBoard
  • Fruits and Chocolate Snack Board
  • Movie Night Snack Board
  • Heart Cupcakes Snack Board
  • Heart Waffles Snackboard

Tic Tac Toe Snack Board

Tic Tac Toe was probably one of the first games I taught my kids. It’s a simple way to bond with your kids while playing a game and eating a snack. I thought it would be so cute to create this tic tac toe snack board for my kids. 

What You Need

Graham Crackers

Conversation Hearts 

Icing Writing Gel 

Heart Shaped Charcuterie board (Target Bullseye)


Fruit and Chocolate Snack Board 

Anytime I make a snack board for my kids, I try to get healthier options. I like to add fruit to their snack boards with a little chocolate. Strawberries are easy to cut into hearts and they go so well with chocolate. For the apples, you can easily use a cookie cutter to cut it into a heart shape. 

What You Need

Strawberries

Apples

Valentine’s Day Sprinkles 

Chocolate Melts 

Heart Shaped Charcuterie board (Target Bullseye)


Movie Night Snack Board

We love doing movie nights on Fridays at the house. So a simple snack board with popcorn and M&M cupid mix is everything they need for a fun night.

What You Need 

Popcorn 

M&M Cupid Mix

Heart Shaped Cupcake Liners (Silicone)


Heart Cupcakes Snack Board

I found the cutest heart shaped pan from Target. This would be a big hit for my kids because they absolutely love cupcakes. I added the white icing on top of the cupcakes. Then I dipped them in sprinkles. Perfect!

What You Need

Heart Shaped Cupcake Pan

Icing

Valentine’s Day Sprinkles

Heart Shaped Charcuterie board (Target Bullseye)


Heart Waffles Snack Board

I love that the brand Dash comes out with themed waffle makers throughout the year. This heart shaped waffle maker is just so cute. Instead of syrup I drizzled icing on top. Then I added the cute X and O cookies. The waffles are pretty small so it’s the perfect size for a snack for your kids 

What You Need

Waffle Mix

Dash Heart Shaped Waffle Maker

Icing

X and O cookies

Heart Shaped Charcuterie board (Target Bullseye)


I hope you were inspired to create some of these snack boards for your kids. Also, check out my blog post February Love Baskets for Kids.

XO,

Ashley
