MUST HAVE MATERNITY ITEM: Body Con Dress
This post is in partner with Ingrid and Isabel. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. I feel like I say this every week, but wow another week has already flown by! I guess this back-to-school-it’s-almost-fall-and-time-to-have-a-baby season can’t last forever. This really has been the best pregnancy so far, it’s been the least crazy and easiest on me personally (I can’t vouch for the rest of the fam, haha). I hate that it’s almost over! For all the women that are currently pregnant or had a baby, I want you to be gentle with yourselves. It’s a magical thing to grow another…

Toxic Swap: Plastic for Stainless Steel
This post is in partner with Healthy Human. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. One of things I didn’t know until I really took the time to learn was what exactly is in plastic. I am specifically asking about plastic containers and plastic water bottles (refillable and disposable). The biggest issue with using plastic is that it exposes you to harmful toxins that leach from the products. Even when using it for drinking, you’re drinking water but the chemicals in the bottles – especially when heated like left in the car – get dumped directly into the water. If you use…

An Update On The Girls And An Adorable, Quick Hair How-To.
As the girls get older, I catch myself remembering some of the things I use to say. Things like: “They will always match,” “they will always wear bows in their hair,” “I’ll never bribe them to do things that they need to do,” etc. It really does make me giggle. As a first time parent, I really was a know it all and man, these last 7 years have taught me so much. Mostly that I didn’t know anything and I am constantly learning new lessons every day. It makes me give them and myself all the grace because we are all learning and growing together. I have had some…

Immune Boosting With Essential Oils
With the starting of school and changing of the seasons, germs are sure to spread around more than normal. For this reason, we as a family focus on boosting our immune systems as much as possible with fresh organic foods, supplements and vitamins (read more about those here) and of course essential oils. I’ve used essential oils for almost 8 years now and it’s one of my favorite switches to safer. Before oils, I didn’t realize how much I could actually use them for and now I feel like there is an oil for everything. I am very picky about the quality of essential oils and you really do get…

Chicken Salad Lovers Unite
Hey ya’ll! I know I normally post my recipes on a Friday but this one is my most requested and I am SO excited to share. I wanted to get this out ASAP so everyone could make for the entire week and not have to worry about lunches (can I get an amen?!?) I normally meal prep on Sundays – you can read more about that here. And shredded chicken in the instant pot is one of the things that I always do. If you don’t own an instant pot, MAN.. you are missing out! I was gifted one after I had Mercy and it’s been a huge staple in…
