Day in the life with a newborn and toddler

by doitonadimeblog Filed Under: Advice & Vlogs

Today I share a day with a newborn baby (three weeks old) and my three year old toddler.  Life is full and we are so, so blessed.  Sometimes I look around at all the Lord has provided us with and I could just burst.  Here’s a typical day with my two boys.  Hope you enjoy!  It means to world to me that you are sharing this journey with our family.  This video is in loving memory of Courtney.

$1 Grocery Organization….from Dollar Tree

by doitonadimeblog Filed Under: Dollar Tree

Grab Bags (like from the infomercial!) retail for $15, (although you can find them on Amazon for about $7) but Dollar Tree just started carrying them.  Two for $1!  This is an incredible score and they will help your shopping happen without a hitch.  Word to the wise: this product will fly (FLY!) off the shelves.

Dollar Tree first tarted carrying Grab Bags in late June of this year, and recently new shipments are coming into stores.  Our store didn’t even have them out of the boxes, yet (we had to ask them to bring out the newest shipment and open for us).  We you do go to look for them, they will be in a display right by the entrance.  Check your local Dollar Tree…and FAST!

Can’t find Grab Bags at your store?  I’ve got ya covered!  Five of you will be winning a grab bag box of your very own.  I’ll ship anywhere.  Love you guys!

Amazing Avocado Ice Cream! (Dairy Free)

by doitonadimeblog Filed Under: Money Saving, Recipes

This is a delicious, dairy-free avocado ice cream.  It’s healthy, quick, and you don’t feel guilty indulging!  (Make sure you use dark chocolate topping to keep it dairy-free!)

INGREDIENTS:
14 oz coconut milk
2 avocados
1/3 cup honey
juice of 1/2 lemon (optional to prevent browning)

DIRECTIONS:
Put coconut milk in fridge overnight.  Puree the avocados in a blender or food processor until smooth.  (Add lemon juice to prevent browning).  In a mixer (free-standing or hand-held) scoop out fat from refrigerated coconut milk.  Do not use liquid.  Mix until stiff peaks form.  Fold in avocado and honey.  Place in an ice cream container or a freezer safe container and freeze until solid.  You may have to set the container out for a few minutes before spooning to allow to soften.
This is also great with coconut and slivered almonds on top!

BIRTH VLOG | Labor and Delivery Story of Owen

by doitonadimeblog Filed Under: Advice & Vlogs

Welcome, Owen Charles!  This is our labor and delivery story of baby number two.  It was an induction at almost 42 weeks due to low amniotic fluid, and just 8 short hours later, I had a beautiful baby boy in my arms.  Birth is heroic, no matter how it happens, so I hope this video empowers and encourages someone.  We feel so grateful and blessed.  God is so good!

CLEANING CLOTHS FROM DOLLAR TREE:

* Clean Life Multi-Purpose Cleaning Cloths: Ideal for wood, glass, leather, electronics, and auto.  Use wet or dry.  (These are also made from recycled materials)

* Reusable Wipes (blue): Ideal for cleaning countertops, dusting, dishes, and windows.  Wash and use over and over!  Always hang dry.

*Super Absorbent Kitchen Wipes: For versatile cleaning.  Extremely absorbent.  Can be used dry or wet for washing, absorbing liquids, or for dusting and general cleaning.

COUNTERTOP CLEANING SPRAY:
50/50 Water Vinegar Mix
10-12 drops of essential oil
