2024 Thanksgiving Menu and Meal Prep Timeline

* image These past few months have been busy for our family, especially since our oldest joined a local swim team. Between juggling our work schedules and balancing school with practices... we're all pretty wiped out. Although it's a lot of work, I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving. Preparing the holiday meal for our family fills my heart with joy, and I can't wait to get started. To make things easier for me, I don't deviate much from  our first Thanksgiving  as a family. The dishes I make are familiar ones, and the recipes for them live at my fingertips. Keeping the same menu year after year means I don't have to spend time researching recipes or planning a new one. Here are my tried-and-true Thanksgiving recipes, as well as my prep timeline for the big day!

Wish List: Minted Nursery Wall Art

Every time I open an email from Minted, I add more items to my ever-growing wish list of art pieces for the baby's nursery.

In two short weeks, our precious baby girl will be six months old. Not surprisingly, I've been in awe of her ever since she was born, and I love watching her learn new skills and begin to interact with the world around her.

We started transitioning her to solids a few weeks ago, and introducing her to new foods has easily become one of my new favorite things to do. Now, she's getting closer and closer to figuring out the mechanics behind crawling. As amazing as it's been seeing her grow and develop, there are moments when I want to tell her "Slow down! You don't have to do everything early!"

Knowing that it's unlikely that she'd actually listen to me, I've been trying to finally finish decorating her nursery so we can enjoy the space in this stage of her life for as long as possible. Homemade artwork is now hanging on the wall (more details on that later, but here's a sneak peek), and Stephen and I have picked out bookshelves to hold her ever-expanding library.

Though, as the project nears completion, I'm finding that I'm being tempted by all of the super cute nursery wall art that's available out there. Redecorating isn't in the cards right now (obviously... it took me six months to get this far!), I thought it would be fun to share the nursery art prints on Minted that have caught my eye.

Maybe, when the time is right, I'll add one (or more!) of these pieces to Caroline's collection. ;-)
