hello ◡̈ As a mom, you have to learn how to monetize independent playtime if you want to get things done. Some babies are more Velcro than others, so this won’t work for everyone. And honestly, this would NOT have worked with my firstborn because he needed to be right next to me at all times, so

hello ◡̈ I’m not the girl I once was… the one who had all the time in the world for herself, for her hobbies, for her little adventures. Motherhood changes you in ways you can’t fully imagine. But I’ve grown into motherhood. I’ve discovered a purpose I didn’t know I had and a love that is deep

hello ◡̈ Motherhood really changed what I’m willing to entertain. 🤍 My kids come first! And this means their peace, their stability, and of course their little hearts. If it doesn’t align with that, it just doesn’t have access to us anymore. 🙂‍↔️ Simple as that! ❤️ #momfyp #realmom

hello ◡̈ In the best way possible, the way I accept love changed once I became a mom. I refuse to let toxic love into my life because my boys are watching and I am their example. It’s so important to me that I show them what love should look like and what it should feel like. So I’ve stopp

hello ◡̈ The 2–3 year old stage is wild in sooo many ways… but sleep is starting to become more consistent! (🙏🏼) This is the point where toddlers start developing stronger routines, longer stretches at night, and they may even drop naps. It’s such a BIG switch up from those early toddler month

hello ◡̈ 1. Multivitamins are a MUST for toddler in my opinion. It’s already hard enough to ensure they’re eating a balanced diet so I love boosting his immune system by doing a daily vitamin. The one pictured are Maryruths and my toddler loves them! 2. Genexa cough syrup — When a cough syrup is

hello ◡̈ If you’re anything like me, pregnancy can leave you so drained and exhausted. Sooo naturally, I had to figure out which snacks actually gave me a little boost. I found that protein helped the most but I’m not a huge fan of snacking on meat all day… So I stuck to things like eggs, nut

hello ◡̈ I’ve for sure had to unlearn so much in just the first 2.5 years of parenting. Like the expectations, the guilt, the “shoulds” I carried from everywhere else. And I can only imagine how much more I’ll need to unlearn to show up as the mom I truly want to be. Every day is a chance to stri

hello ◡̈ I’ve gained weight that I never expected would stay. I thought I’d “bounce back” bc pre pregnancy I was always relatively small. But during my first pregnancy, I gained 85 lbs and the weight didn’t just melt off.. While breastfeeding my firstborn, I felt ravenous. Always hungry. Even

hello ◡̈ I’ll be the first to admit this stage (2.5) of parenting has humbled me so damn much. Like every stage, I don’t think I could have been truly prepared for this phase of motherhood. He’s so smart, honestly, sometimes too smart for his own good. Which gets us in a lot of trouble. He’s 2.5

hello ◡̈ 6 months is such a fun age! Sooo many major changes happen right around this time 🥹🫶🏼 Like always, remember that milestones are a guideline and not law. Some babies do things at different times and that’s okay! If you’re ever concerned, mention it to your child’s doctor. 🤎 #momfyp

hello ◡̈ Feeling confident again after having a baby is honestly a challenge. For most of us, our bodies never feel the same after enduring pregnancy and birth. I mean, how can we even expect it to? Our body went through major changes and so did we spiritually and mentally. Plus then postpartum…

hello ◡̈ Picking your baby’s name is seriously so fun & special! ✨ If you’re anything like me youve had a list of baby names for YEARS (I actually ended up using one of the names that’s been on my list forever for my firstborn!) Naming your baby is such a big decision but it’s also just s
