Ninja Warrior Basement

Our kids are big fans of the popular show, America Ninja Warrior. They like to test out their skills at the local park but since we live in the Chicago suburbs, there are multiple months that aren’t quite the best for playing outside on cold metal playgrounds. Our boys never seem to run out of energy so we decided to build a space in our basement that would hopefully tire them out a little bit (and keep them from constantly jumping on the couch)!

Our contractor knew our plans for having a ninja warrior area throughout our basement build and they were great to brainstorm ideas with and help us bring the vision to life. One of their suggestions that we followed was to use 2x4s underneath the plywood boards. This would allow for the plywood to be taken down easily to move rock wall holds and also keep the drywall underneath in good shape for if we ever wanted to turn the space into something else. During another brainstorming session, we came up with the idea to run 2x4s the length of the ceiling for the hanging rings and bars. A bonus feature that we didn’t plan on but that worked out really well for us was that the framers covered our steel support beam in plywood before placing the drywall on top of it. What this did was give us a lot more freedom in where we could hang our pegboard, rock wall training board, and ultimate cliffhanger piece.

I included the links to the items we used below, since that tends to be the most frequently asked question. Let me know if you have any other questions. Happy to answer them the best I can.

Warning: Don’t show your kids the images below unless you’re okay with them asking you to build a ninja warrior course nonstop until you do. lol

Mats
They are firm but provide some cushion for when the kids drop or fall. These can be purchased in different sizes. We measured our area and then purchased what would work best for the space.

Eye Hooks
All the pieces were attached to the ceiling using these eye hooks. We had to make sure they were safe for the biggest kids (AKA my husband).
https://amzn.to/39xCOTu

Rock Wall Holds
We got these a few years ago as a Christmas present. We thought we might mount them in a bedroom and use them as a bunk bed ladder but instead decided to put them in the basement. I like the natural color. We have two sets.
https://amzn.to/2XyG0Zw

There was a deal a while back for a doorway mounted pull up bar that had various attachments like a swing, rope, and trapeze bar. Before the ninja warrior area was completed, we had it in a doorway and our kids used it constantly. Now that we have the ninja warrior area, we switch out the attachments in the new space. It’s a nice way to give the kids some variety.
https://amzn.to/3qmn90h

Pod Swing & Cargo Net
Our kids like to swing and read in this comfy seat.
Pod Swing https://amzn.to/3ye8WHg
Cargo Net https://amzn.to/3flxYM5
**Note:** Please be careful if you get a cargo net. Since it’s not attached to the ground,
it can be very dangerous. We only have ours up when an adult is downstairs supervising.

Monkey Bars
These aren’t cheap but they were exactly what we were looking for. The kids spend a lot of time on them so we think they’re worth it.
https://shopstyle.it/l/buwuc

Ninja Rings and Trapeze Wheels
This is a fun multi-pack of hanging items to add variety to hanging ceiling pieces.
https://amzn.to/38CaUGJ

Ultimate Cliffhanger
This is actually a leftover piece of decking that meets the specifications of the authentic ninja warrior ones.
You could probably find a similar piece at your local hardware store.

Rock Wall Training Board
This is a great training piece for grip strength.
https://amzn.to/39tlSxx

Pegboard
This is another training piece that both kids and adults can use. It can be mounted horizontally or vertically. We bought two so we hung one each way. This set comes with everything you need to hang it.

We’re Moving!

For the last 3 and a half years, our family of 5 have lived in what we call our tiny house. We’ve honestly loved it but we’ve decided it’s time for a change so we’re building a house!

Before I go into more details about the house, I want to explain how we got to this point so here’s a little backstory.

*Our first Christmas in our condo in the city.*

Chris and I lived in Chicago in a one bedroom condo when we first got married. Then came baby #1. We stayed for a little while, but eventually moved to the suburbs to have more space and to be closer to family (aka babysitters). We had a decently spacious house (4 bed, 3 bath). Shortly after having our third son, Chris felt like we should move so we could save more money. Two weeks after that conversation, we had a full price offer and bought a 4-unit house. It looks like a raised ranch from the outside but actually has 4 units in it. We’ve been living in one of the units (2 bed, 1 bath) ever since. Most people thought (and probably still think) we were totally crazy but we were happy and content with our decision. We were able to make money on our house that we sold and having tenants has basically allowed us to live mortgage free since their rent pays for most of our expenses. It was a smart move for us financially and I think our family has gotten closer because of it.

So why move?

Good question. We’ve had many conversations about what the future will look like for us, Lord-willing. Chris and I (and the kids) have all agreed we could live in our tiny house forever and be perfectly content. The extra money we would save would also us to spend that money on traveling which is one of our favorite things to do together. And who wouldn’t want to get out of Chicago during the cold winter months?!

*Our “tiny house”. We live in 1/4 of it and we have tenants in the other three quarters.*

I’ll ask again. Why move?

I’ll actually get around to answering the question this time….We’ve decided to move into a bigger space for two reasons:

Reason #1: We love to host. Having a tiny house has made that challenging and we miss it. We’re excited to have friends and family over again and do more playdates. Thinking further ahead, one day I want to have space for our kids and grandkids to stay with us.

Reason 2: It’s been on our hearts for the last 5ish years to be foster parents. We had started the process but then we moved and child services wouldn’t approve us to get a license because we didn’t have enough space. Moving into a bigger space means we can get licensed and will get to care for a child so deserving unconditional love. We really can’t wait!

Where are you moving?

We’re actually only moving about 5 minutes away from our tiny house. Our kids will be able to go to the same school. We’re also keeping our tiny house as a rental property. Chris is a nurse and I’m a teacher, so the extra income will be nice.

House details

We’re building what we call our “modest farmhouse”. It’s the style of a farmhouse but set in the Chicago suburbs on a small lot. LOL. The building process has already been quite the learning curve but so far we’re enjoying it. I plan to update you on here and on Instagram so feel free to follow along.

Facebook Group: Deals for Moms

I’ve always been a bargain hunter and a saver. Babysitting my butt off and being careful to buy deals allowed me to buy my first car (1992 Honda Accord) when I was 16 and put a down payment on our first home (condo in Chicago) when I was 22. Now at the age of 32, I still love to hunt for a good deal and tell people about them so I started Deals for Moms. It’s a group on Facebook where I share some pretty impressive deals for the whole family. Think Pampers, Roomba, Sperry, Melissa & Doug, Tide Pods, Under Armour. People have been raving about the Facebook group. Join today!

Try On Session: Old Navy

This post contains affiliate links.

When I dropped my son off at preschool today, some of the moms asked me to post my outfit. I told them all I did was put a knot in my (old) Old Navy dress to give it some shape. Super easy. Try it with one of your old dresses. It suddenly gives it a more current look.

Similar dress to mine http://shopstyle.it/l/UtT4

After drop off, I treated myself to a mani/pedi (family pictures are on Sunday) and then went to Old Navy to try and find something to wear to those family pictures. Lots of items are 50% off in store today.

I found this plaid dress that literally feels like a flannel pajama night shirt. Here I’m showing how it looks worn tied and untied. This runs big. I’m wearing a small. I’d recommend sizing down, especially if you’re inbetween sizes. Plaid dress http://shopstyle.it/l/UtUg

Speaking of flannel pajamas, these pants are a must! I had to buy them and couldn’t wait to get home to put them on. So now I’m sitting on the couch. Just finished folding laundry in my new buffalo plaid flannel pajamas pants. What does your crazy Friday night look like?

Here are a couple of cozy sweaters.

Slouchy turtleneck http://shopstyle.it/l/UtW7 Crewneck sweater. Size up for length. I’m wearing a medium. http://shopstyle.it/l/UtXw

This vest is nice and thin. Great if you like the look of a vest but don’t want the added bulk.

This long cardigan sweater is so warm and cozy! Definitely had to buy this.

This look is very versatile. Appropriate for work or just a regular day of doing normal life stuff.

FAQ about Amazon’s Subscribe & Save Program

LITTLE BLUE JEANS IS A PARTICIPANT IN THE AMAZON SERVICES LLC ASSOCIATES PROGRAM, AN AFFILIATE ADVERTISING PROGRAM. IF YOU MAKE A PURCHASE USING ONE OF THE LINKS, LITTLE BLUE JEANS MAY RECEIVE A SMALL COMMISSION.

Q: What is Amazon’s Subscribe and Save program?

A: Subscribe and Save is pretty much what the name implies – you subscribe to an eligible item, set up auto-delivery, and hopefully save money. You get an extra discount on top of Amazon’s prices simply by signing up to receive scheduled shipments on eligible products. These are often the products you buy on a regular basis – think diapers, paper towels, snacks, toiletries.

Q: How do I save money using Subscribe and Save?

A: I’m so glad you asked! If you subscribe to 1, 2, 3, or 4 products a month, you’ll receive 5% off your order BUT if you subscribe to 5 or more products a month, you’ll get a 15% discount. I always make sure I have at least 5 subscriptions. If you have Prime, make sure you sign up for Amazon Family so you receive 20% off diapers, baby food, and more when you Subscribe and Save. One of the greatest ways to save money is to find products that are eligible for Subscribe and Save AND have coupons. These discounts will stack, offering you the greatest price. Join my Facebook group, Deals for Moms to find out about great Subscribe and Save deals each month.

Q: Can the price of Subscribe and Save items change?

A: Yes, prices can and most likely will fluctuate each month. When you first subscribe to a product, you are guaranteed that price for the first shipment (even if the price increases before it ships). After the first shipment, the price will likely change. You’ll be charged whatever the current price is at the time the order gets processed. I recommend setting an alarm on your phone each month to review your subscriptions. Cancel or delay products you don’t need or that are too pricey. To delay a product, you can simply hover over the subscription item you’d like to modify and click “skip next delivery”.

Q: When will I be charged for my Subscribe and Save order?

A: Amazon charges all orders when they ship.

Q: Where can I find the best Subscribe and Save deals?

What it’s Like to Be a Working Mom

Being a working mom is a lot of work.

And I wouldn’t want it any other way (most days).

After I had my first son, and my second son, and my third son, I got the unavoidable question…

Are you going back to work?

And yes, I was. Each time. Each time I was headed back to work after my maternity leave.

When you’re asked that question, it seems like there are a bunch of follow up questions and comments that people want to say. Sometimes they go unsaid but you know it’s what people are thinking.

“Do you have to work?”

“Are you looking forward to going back to work?”

“Must be nice to get a break from your kids.”

“I don’t know how you manage everything.”

“Is it easier to be at work than at home?”

“Aren’t you worried you’re going to miss out on milestones?”

“I stayed home and wouldn’t have traded those years for anything.”

“Don’t you think it’s better for you to stay home with your kids during these early years?”

It doesn’t take long for the guilt to set in. It’s there even before the questions are asked.

“No, I don’t have to work but it does help us live a little more comfortably. No, I’m not really looking forward to going back to work but if I was, is that wrong? I love every day at home I get with my kids. I couldn’t do it without my husband and we ask for help when we need it. My work is challenging, so most days are not easier than being at home. It’s inevitable I’ll miss out on some milestones but I thank God for technology. I don’t think it’s better or worse to stay at home vs. working but what I do know is this is best for my family right now.”

I had my first son 7+ years and have been a working mom ever since. For about half of those years I was a third grade teacher and the other half I’ve been a reading specialist for kindergarten through sixth grade students. If having three kids and being a teacher wasn’t enough, I decided to start working from home too. A year and a half ago, I started a Facebook group called Deals for Moms where I share some pretty killer deals for the whole family and more recently started blogging.Being a working mom is busy. It’s funny to think how busy I used to feel before I had kids. Now I wonder what I did with all my free time. The life of a working mom is full. And hard. And yet, rewarding.

The most challenging part for me is feeling like I can never give 100% to any part of my life. I constantly feel like I want to be a more present mom to my three boys but at the same time, wish I didn’t have to run out of work to get home. It would be nice to make all my blog dreams come to life. I wish I had more time just to relax with my husband rather than finishing chores and working out logistics. I would love to go on more playdates with my stay-at-home mom friends. My house is never in the state I want it to be and there’s always laundry to be done. I would love to be able to volunteer more at my kids’ school and at church. But there just isn’t time for me to dedicate all my effort to each of those things.

It’s also exhausting. With both of my jobs, the work is never really done. Even when I leave the physical work building; I’m never actually done with work. Every “free” minute of my day could be spent working – writing lesson plans, reading the latest professional development book on literacy, responding to Facebook messages, searching for a deal, writing a blog post. I have to make the conscious decision to say “no” to work.

When you’re a working mom, you learn to use and appreciate every minute. Since time with my kids and husband is precious, I’ve been working on putting my phone and laptop away so I can be fully engaged. I wake up early and stay up late so I can get a lot of work done when my kids are sleeping. It’s amazing how little sleep you can learn to function on.

While I could sit and focus on all the challenging parts of being a working mom, that doesn’t do me any good. It certainly does take more thought, but there are also many reasons I love being a working mom.

8 reasons I Love Being a Working Mom:

I always have a good excuse why things aren’t perfect. My house is never spotless. My kids’ hair is often uncombed. There aren’t homemade meals at the dinner table each night. Sometimes I don’t get school handouts turned in on time. But thankfully nobody expects perfection from a working mom of multiple children and I’ll happily accept that free pass.

I’ve been able to prioritize my life better. Before kids, I stayed at work from 7am until 7pm on a regular basis. Now that I’m a mom, I want to get home ASAP to see my kids. The work will be there persistently, but my kids won’t always be little.

The kids spend more time with other adults that love them. Our kids are passed around throughout the week between me, our babysitter, their grandma, and dad. If they’re not with me 24/7, that doesn’t make them any less loved. Instead, they get to spend quality time with other people that love them unconditionally and that extra time has fostered some really beautiful relationships.

Working makes my life more interesting. I’m one of those strange people that never seems to tire of being with my kids but I also like that I’m able to go to work and use the skills that God has given me. Ever since I was a little girl, I dreamed of being a teacher so I’m thankful that I still get to use my brain in that way (even if it does seem foggier now). I have work friends that I wouldn’t have met if I didn’t teach. I’ve also enjoyed the online community that Deals for Moms has created. It’s been exciting to take my hobby of finding deals and turn it into a way to make a little extra cash for my family. When my husband gets home from work, we both get to talk about work stories. I think he finds my work stories slightly more engaging than hearing about changing diapers, cleaning up toys, and playdates.

I’m more disciplined. Working has forced me to be more efficient with my time. While I’m perfectly content wearing pajamas all day, I can’t do that since I work. I have no choice but to get up early, shower (most days), and get out the door. I have to be purposeful to make time for working out, devotions, cooking dinner, and dates with my husband.

It makes me a more empathetic person. Being a working mom is busy and stressful but it could be harder. I have more empathy than ever before for single moms, moms dealing with an illness, military moms, and moms that are alone most of the week while their husbands travel. It takes a village. We’ve got to help one another.

I have a few extra bucks to spend. Could we get by without my salary? Yes, I think so. We could drop our data plan, forget the family vacation, stop buying trendy clothes, and eat out less. While we don’t live an extravagant lifestyle, I do enjoy the occasional mani/pedi and overpriced taco. I like that life is a bit less stressful because we don’t constantly have to be budgeting every dollar.

My kids are some of the happiest kids I know. Being a working mom is not making my kids miserable. It’s not ruining their childhood. Believe me, I would quit my jobs if I felt my kids were suffering but it’s quite the opposite. People are constantly telling me how my kids are always smiling. They’re independent. They adjust easily to new people and situations. They love their life and so do I.

I LOVE summer days that are spent by a pool or lake in a bathing suit and swim cover-up. Today was one of those days. I actually just came inside to finish this post and to get ready to go see fireworks. Here are a few cover-ups I found for this week’s Try it on Tuesday.

White Crochet

This cover-up is so pretty and looks much more expensive than it is. People will be shocked when you tell them it’s from Amazon!

Tassel Back Cover Up

I really like the blue tassels on the back of this cover up. You can grab it for 20% off right now at Target with promo code JULY4.

Hooded Cover Up

The material of this cover up is very comfortable. It comes in stripes, black, and teal. It ran small on me. I’m wearing a medium but would prefer a large. Again, you can use promo code JULY4 to save 20%.

Seersucker Cover Up

Here’s another Target find. The material of this one is very soft and comfortable. It seems like it would dry super fast.

This is a dress that could double as a swim cover up. It’s not see through at all. Perfect for going from the pool to the grocery store. It’s available in four different colors. I’m wearing a small in the black one and a medium in the purple.

Off the Shoulder Cover Up

I wore this dress/cover-up all over Cuba. While we were there, it rained multiple times and then the sun would come out. This dress is a nice light material so it dried quickly.

Enjoy these hot summer days before they’re gone! I’m trying to soak up as many as possible!

Try it on Tuesday: Fourth of July Style

This week I went to a bunch of different stores looking for outfits to wear for Independence Day. The Fourth of July is one of my favorite holidays. Love the parades, pool parties, fireworks, and all the red, white, & blue clothing (the preppy and the trashy)…..

Ruffle T-Shirt

Raw Hem Shorts

I like this classic look. The top is really soft. Sizes are limited online but I was able to find mine in store on clearance for $13.98. The shorts are also really comfortable. I like that they’re mid-rise. They come in a few different lengths. I’m wearing the “midi” length.

Rose T-Shirt

Flag Shorts

These shorts are so fun and surprisingly not as short as I thought they were going to be. I didn’t want to take a bootie selfie so check out the link for how fun the back of these shorts are. They are supposedly “high rise” but were quite low on me. Maybe if I size up they’ll hit me higher on my waist.

Striped Tank

Raw Hem Shorts

This tank is available in blue or red. Check out the link to see the cute strappy back. It’s a steal at just $9.99!

Tie Tank

White Denim Skirt

This top is available in red, white, or blue. It’s only $12.99!

Flag Top

I’d recommend sizing up in this tank and wearing high bottoms if you don’t want your bellybutton to show. It’s also only $12.99!

Denim Star Shirt

Raw Hem Shorts

It’s hard to see in this picture, but this denim top has fun little stars all over it. Try tying the bottom for an updated look.

Peplum Tank

Jeans

Peplum tops are trendy this season. This one is extra feminine with the crochet details. These jeans are comfortable and I like that they’re only slightly destructed, making them more appropriate for days I get to wear jeans to work.

Star Romper

If you look closely, you might be able to see all the little stars on this romper.

Red Tank

Striped Shorts

I love preppy looks (like this one) for the Fourth of July. The top I’m wearing is actually a bodysuit but I couldn’t find it online so I linked a different red tank.

Overalls

As much as I love the preppy look, I also think it’s fun to get a little “white trashy” for the Fourth.

Striped T-Shirt Dress

This dress is only $12.99 and feels like pajamas. Do I need to say more?

Star Dress

Botties

Sadly it looks like my dress is mostly out of stock online but check the store near you. I just saw it in store last week.

Flag Tee

Distressed Denim

The cut of this flag tee makes it very flattering and the print is super patriotic.

Off the Shoulder Dress

If you’re not into red and blue, a classic white dress is always fitting for Independence Day.

Button Dress

I feel like my picture doesn’t do this dress justice. The second I put this on, I felt more feminine and sexy. It has fun buttons down the front, little flutter straps, and a slightly open back.

Stronger Together Tank

Love that this tank has a graphic of a flag but that it’s understated with the gray. Currently on clearance for $9.08!

And just for fun, here’s a picture of my family on the Fourth of July from a couple of years ago. We were waiting for the fireworks to start. What are your plans for July 4th (besides wearing some really cute patriotic clothing, of course)??

June 12, 2018 by: ljbenning

Try it on Tuesday: H&M Style

H&M has fun, trendy clothes for every day and inexpensive work clothes. What’s in the store is only a small fraction of all the clothes that’s available online so you’ll probably want to check out their website. Here’s what I tried on today….

Flounce-Sleeved Top

The top i’m wearing is as soft as a tshirt but dressy enough to wear to work and it’s only $12.99! The shorts are fun and different. I’m bummed I can’t find them on the H&M website but I did find a striped pair that I really like. The store I was at didn’t have the striped pair in my size so I didn’t get to try them on.

Polka Dot T-Shirt

Khaki Green Slacks

Black Suede Wedges

This t-shirt is only $5 and there are lots of other color options. My dress pants are just $14.99!! Such a steal for work clothes. They have a cute little slit on the sides. Size up a size or two in these. There are lots of prints and colors to choose from.

Embroidered Blouse

Same pants, different top. It’s hard to see in the picture because it’s black but this blouse has lots of fun details. The ruffles and the different textures add interest.

One Shoulder Top

These pants can easily go from work to a night out when you put on a fun top. This top is meant to be fitted.

Pink Dress

I first tried on this dress a few weeks ago when I was looking for wedding guest dresses and liked it so much I had to include it again. The color is fun and the cut is flattering.

Romper

This romper comes in a couple prints. Around the armholes there are cute little pompoms and the back has a vertical slit.

Pink Blouse

Black Pants

Pants I can wear to work + comfortable enough to wear to bed = MUST BUY! If you weren’t already convinced, maybe knowing they’re only $20 will do the trick.

Black Lace Top

This top is only $9.99! Hard to beat that price.

Floral Dress

This off the shoulder dress is currently on sale for $17.99 and at time of posting, all sizes are available!

Gingham Dress

Easy summer dress to throw on when you want to look nice and be comfortable. Can you tell I really like to be comfortable?!?

Bodysuit

I’ve been a bit hesitant to jump on the bodysuit bandwagon but I do like this one. It’s obviously low cut but if you’re small-chested like I am, you can get away with wearing it without it appearing overly sexy.

Overalls

Tank

When I first saw these overalls on the rack, I was probably more excited than I should be but at the same time, also not 100% sure they were in the right spot. I thought there was a good chance they were misplaced and supposed to be in the girls’ section. I tried them on anyways and can’t help but love them. The pink tank is available in a bunch of colors and only $4.99!

Happy shopping friends!

Try it on Tuesday: Gap Style

Happy Tuesday ladies! You suggested I go to the Gap and I did! Sometimes it’s a little plain for me so I was expecting to be a bit bored with the selection but I’m happy to report I was wrong. There were lots of fun choices for me to try on.

Ruffle Top

White Jeans

Black Jeans

I can’t decide which look I like more. I love denim with white and denim with black. Everything I’m wearing here (minus the black heals) is super comfortable. The denim shirt feels like butter. Size down. I’m wearing an XS. Both pants are really good for holding you in, in ALL the right places and the white jeans aren’t see through!! Hallelujah!

Embroidered Blouse

Frayed Jeans

Black Jeans

This blouse has embroidery in black and blue so it can easily be worn with black, blue, or white bottoms.

Floral Romper

I’m not loving this romper on me but it is really light and comfortable and seems like it has some length to it, making it nice for people who are taller than me. I’m 5’4.

Denim Shirt

Black Jeans

This “Tencel” denim shirt is soooo comfortable and environmentally friendly. This runs big; I’m wearing a small. I love it tied, especially because it’s long in the back. I love the short in the front, long back look….I find it to be slimming.

Wrap Dress

Fun dress for work. I wasn’t able to find this color online but did find the dress in different colors.

Maxi Dress

Perfect dress for those hot summer nights. I actually like this dress better without the sash belt. What do you think?

Linen Shirt

Cut Off Shorts

Cuffed Shorts

Both of these shorts are ultra comfortable and high wasted (which I’ve grown to love). My white top is sold out at Target:/ The tied button down is available in several colors and stripes. Such a timeless item that won’t ever go out of style.

Denim Dress

I HAD to try this on because I’m pretty sure I had the same exact dress when I was 10. Probably from Limited Too. I couldn’t find this exact dress online, but I did find a very similar one.

Happy shopping!
