Gooey Butter Cake Ice Cream (Jeni’s Inspired!)

Now I have had Jeni’s before and have had their Gooey Butter Cake ice cream but something about it last time had us in awe. Garrett and I could not stop oogling over it and thinking about it for weeks. Fast forward a few…

I love the results! #hairgloss #athomebeauty #diyhair

Note: I did end up donating the formula elsewhere— I didn’t want to leave it outside because extreme temperatures can mess with the integrity of formula!

I took my toddler to the grocery store so we could pick out some shelf stable foods that are also good sources of protein. We made a couple of shelf stable birthday cake kits (everything included to make a cake!) and also donated a bunch of diapers that we no longer had use for! 
I really want to start doing this more often, because it caused my son to ask a lot of good questions and we were able to have a good talk about helping others ❤️
