I love that I’m surrounded by a community of boss ladies! Right? For the past couple years, ever since diving into the small shop community, I’ve found this niche of hard working women that give it their all to their family and their job that they created for themselves. I’ll be doing my roundup of all my favorites for the holidays soon, so look out for that, but today, I want to share an amazing woman who’s had a full time job, doing the mom thing with all of her heart, and has now created an…
Do you like getting that luxury hotel sleep? If you say no, I’m not going to believe you, so the only answer is “yes!” Well, my husband and I got to collaborate with Tomorrow Sleep, and have been using their sleep system over the past month. The idea of a whole sleep system really appealed to me when I started investigating what that meant. And it really means a system. It’s not all about the mattress (although the mattress has to be amazing, right?!). You really start to think about what makes you start to get sleepy and…
I was so excited to collaborate with Incredibundles. They offer so many types of bundles that you can pick out for baby showers, birthday presents, etc. And Family Day is today, September 25th, so these are the perfect little boxes to add to a fun family filled day. We thought about what we wanted to do for our family time for Family Day, and if Kevin would have had the day off for some reason, we could have made a book bundle for our kiddos to open up in the morning, and then read them the different books throughout the…
Just perfect. What comes to your mind when you think of something or someone who’s just perfect? A supermodel? A sports player? Someone who seemingly has it all together…career, finances, family, and health?I can tell you that my view of what’s “just perfect” has changed dramatically over the years, just as it did for Kimberly Mohns Roberts, who wrote the book, Just Perfect. Kimberly struggled with anxiety and depression as a teenager, which eventually led her to try and take her own life! After years of overcoming those struggles, she now has two beautiful little girls…
Pretty Pretty Princess. Do you remember that game when you were a child? It was my absolute favorite. It’d always be my first game to pull out when my friends came over! And I’d just be praying I didn’t get the dreaded black ring! I wanted to be a princess from day one of watching all the Disney movies. Well…Hallen is in full princess mode over at the Williams’ household. I’m sure you’ve noticed if you’ve even be following along with our life in squares for only a day. All she wears is…
Kind of tagging along to my last blog post about the price of motherhood…the next question in my head is, “where do I fit in to all of this in the grand scheme of things.” Who am I now? How can I find the old me in my new identity. I think we all agreed that once you cross the line of going into motherhood, there’s no backing out of it. You’re there forever. So, how do you hold on to a little of that carefree attitude you once embraced? Or how do you remove yourself from…
What were you like before you had a child or started trying to get pregnant? I can distinctly remember being fun, flirty, and outgoing. I didn’t know what anxiety was like. My mom had told me she had struggled with anxiety some, and I literally didn’t even know what it was. I thought I did, because I felt nervous before big tests or had a knot in my stomach if someone was upset with me (and that still happens). Was that anxiety? Maybe slightly, but nothing like I’ve experienced since having children. I just recently started reading…
What’s the first thing you do once you get home from being out for a while? Whether that be going to work or just hanging out with friends…Mine has always been to take off my bra, and put some comfortable clothes on. Even my mom can attest to that since I was young! And I know you do it too. It’s a little sense of freedom. No more restrictions of how you can lay or cross your legs or where your boobs have to be!I have an inkling that that’s one of the reasons leggings…
