Happy Monday, friends!
We had a super fun and full weekend on Nantucket taking in all of the Daffodil festivities. Nothing makes me happier than going to that little island with all of my people.
Alrighty, I am hitting the ground running this morning…back to work, back to school, back to obligations, and back to April. I am so so excited that we get to wrap up our week in MAY! You know how much I love me some May 😉 .
I have a little Amazon Lately to kick off your week. As always, it’s a very random mix…
Kensington has been loving and using this THERMAL BRUSH for her hair.
I realized that Madeley needed a good old fashioned dictionary when doing some of her homework, so we bought THIS ONE, and it’s been perfect for my fourth grader. When was the last time you opened a dictionary? I’m not going to lie, the word nerd in me got really excited when it arrived. I’m so used to “googling” things that I had forgotten the simple joys of actually looking in a dictionary.
Kensington needed NEW SOCKS. She likes these.
My PUFFER comes in over 25 different colors, and I bought yellow for Daffy. I left it on Nantucket for future Daffys too 🙂 .
CHARLIE’S OUTFIT was also an Amazon find.
A whole bunch of ATHLETIC TAPE arrived…clearly an Andrew purchase 😉 .
My favorite PLUG ADAPTER. Bought another one this month!
MINI JAM JARS for my MINI TRIFLES.
Before Andrew drove our car to Nantucket, we loaded it with things we wanted to keep on island including this PADDLESMASH for the beach. We are super pumped to add this to our beach repertoire!
According to Amazon, I have purchased THIS DETANGLER now 17 times. All four Shull girls use it after every single wash.
And with that, I’m off for today.
I’ll see you all back here tomorrow. Have the BEST start to your week, friends! xx

I’m buying that dictionary right now for my 3.5 year old (and me). He is starting to recognize letters and words (his name, my name, etc). But mostly he loves to learn and is always asking me “what does that word mean?” And after having a newborn sometimes I can’t think clearly enough to define a specific word I’ve used 😂 gotta love our kids keeping us on our toes and in check!

You two will love it! I truly had forgotten the simple joy of looking up a word instead of reaching for my phone.
Diane Moore says
These posts are always fun and helpful. I’m going to try Kensington’s hair tool!
Mix and Match Mama says
I told her that I was too. She absolutely loves it!
Lisa De says
If you’re a dictionary lover, I just finished The Book of Lost Words by Pip Williams. I am a teacher so this nerdy stuff makes me so happy! Great plot, and you will fall in love with the characters.
Mix and Match Mama says
Yay! I love a book rec!! Thank YOU!
Sheaffer says
Charlie’s outfit? I DIE.
Erika Slaughter says
Happy Busy Monday BACK!
Grace says
Shay the family photo was great but Charlie’s outfit for the weekend just made my day! How adorable!
Jessica says
Love the voltage adapter! We’re traveling to Switzerland this fall and I’ve been pondering which adapter to buy.
Richelle says
Going to need a video tutorial on how Kensington uses that thermal brush! Also, I don’t think that is a “voltage” adapter (at least according to try description on Amazon). It is a plug adapter.Just don’t want someone to fry their blow dryer or curling iron or something else while on vacation!
Mix and Match Mama says
Geez, my brain and hands are not working at the same speed. Yes! Plus adapter. I edited it.
Emily S. says
Hi Shay! This is Emily (Kasey’s friend from Colorado) – I just wanted to say thank you for the very sweet birthday video. It made my day! I’ve been reading your blog for about 15 years and I really think the world of you and your family. I rarely start my day without stopping here first!
Thanks again – I so appreciate it!
Mix and Match Mama says
Oh Emily, it was my PLEASURE!!! I hope you had a wonderful, wonderful birthday! I am beyond grateful that you take time out of your very busy day to spend time with me here. Truly, I am so grateful. xx
JD says
I also would love to see a hair tutorial with Kensington’s brush. I struggle with long waves. Also, Charlie is the cutest in his fancy attire.
Mary says
I’d love to know where you found the earrings you are wearing with the yellow puffer jacket. Thank!
Mix and Match Mama says
Aren’t they cute?! They’re my Daffy earrings. I bought them from a boutique on Nantucket last year for Daffy weekend.
Laci says
Charlie and his outfit….I am smitten!
Rachel says
Good dictionary! I’m the Dictionary Skills coach for our UIL competition. Using a dictionary is becoming a lost skill!
