    Reflecting with #forBetterBeginnings

    As Scarlet Reese’s first birthday quickly approaches, Playtex Baby™, has inspired me to reflect on the past year with her and how it has changed me as a mom. With each of my children, I have grown as a woman, mom and friend. I learn so many things about my children and myself every single day. I can also say that with each baby, I have become more confident and laid back in my motherhood journey. This is a sponsored post however, all opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. I remember when Nolan was one, he had only eaten a few “solids” because I…

    Revolutionary Safer Hair Care

    Many of you don’t know that I suffer from psoriasis. Most of the time I can keep it at bay but there are different environmental factors that trigger it. When I wash my hands with bathroom handsoaps, get a pedicure, after I leave my hair appointments or use a hair product with the ingredient “fragrance.” The term “fragrance” (aka “parfum”) can be used for any number of aromatic chemical concoctions. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, over 5,000 different fragrance chemicals — in countless combinations — are used in products today. While every other specific ingredient used in personal care products must, by law, be listed…

One in particular, Lark Adventurewear, was a great find for me because it helps us get to enjoy the outdoors more. Lark Adventurewear is the original activewear that…

    My “Go-To” Summer Look

    tank | shorts | clutch | makeup | shoes As much as I would love to make ya’ll believe that I dress up seven days a week, I think ya’ll could spot a fake from a mile away. I have three small children so when I do make it out of yoga pants THIS is the outfit that I find myself wearing most. Last month, my friend, team member and owner of the Paisley Pearl, Whitney McGee, hosted a Beautycounter event at her boutique. Luckily, I was able to attend and enjoy a night out talking about safer beauty and shopping. In her boutique she has an entire clothing rack for…

    How Our Pack and Play Makes Life Easier

    This post was sponsored by Guava Family. All opinions and reviews are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. To say that we love summer is a BIG understatement. My kids and I live and breathe summer. I know that the heat is something that takes getting used to but honestly, we go to the pool or the beach everyday (and we even have a kiddie pool for them to cool off in whenever they want) so it doesn’t bother us that much. I would take a hot and humid day any day over freezing cold rain and no sun. Nolan learned how to swim last summer…
