Happy August 1st 🌿 | New Month, Same Mom

New month, new beginnings… but still the same mom figuring it out one morning at a time. 🤍

Today’s vlog is nothing fancy just a slow morning with my daughter and my sister. These ordinary moments are the ones I’ll always want to remember.

My morning favorites:

☕ Update Energy Drink

🥣 Mush Overnight Oats

🧴 Dermasil Skincare

☀️ Neutrogena Sunscreen

I’m embracing August with realistic routines, quality time with family, and plenty of thriller books in between. If you love mom lifestyle content, simple morning vlogs, and book recommendations, you’re in the right place.

What’s one intention you’re setting for August? ✨

... Read moreStarting a new month, especially August, offers a perfect chance to reset and embrace simplicity in daily routines. As a mom, finding those small, meaningful moments like a slow morning with family can be both grounding and joyful. I’ve found that incorporating favorite morning treats like a nourishing energy drink or a simple overnight oats recipe can boost energy without complicating the routine. Skincare products like Dermasil and Neutrogena sunscreen add that much-needed self-care touch, reminding us to care for ourselves while caring for others. Capturing and sharing ordinary yet precious family moments helps me appreciate the little things we might otherwise overlook. These can be quiet breakfasts with loved ones, chatting over a cup of coffee, or curling up with a gripping thriller book during snack time. Thrillers especially offer an enjoyable mental escape, balancing the busy demands of mom life with a bit of entertainment. Setting intentions each month adds purpose and direction to daily activities. Whether it’s carving out quality time with family, prioritizing self-care, or squeezing in moments for personal growth, intentions help maintain a healthy mindset. For me, August is about embracing realistic routines—nothing too strict or overwhelming—just nourishing habits that keep me feeling balanced and connected. If you’re a mom looking for relatable lifestyle content, simple morning routines, or book recommendations, focusing on these authentic, everyday experiences can be inspiring and comforting. Remember, the day-in-a-life moments we cherish are what shape our memories and give meaning to the busy chaos of parenthood.

want to choose your baby’s birth month?
hello ◡̈ Planning your conception date to align with your desired birth month requires a bit of calculation. To increase your chances of having a baby in a specific month, you'll need to consider the average length of a pregnancy (38-40 weeks) and count backward from your desired birth month.
