    Mommy Lockdown 2020

    March 14, 2020 in Health & Wellness, Homeschool, lifestyle, Motherhood
    I experienced my first Mommy Lockdown with fellow blogger, Hazel Valeria, last week. Believe me when I tell you- It was everything I hoped it would be. It was productive. It was fun. It was luxurious. When I first got settled into my room, I tried working without having anything on- no TV, no music.

    February 1, 2019 in Health & Wellness, lifestyle, Motherhood

    Tampons or pads? Which one do you use? A better question is: Have you ever wondered what your tampons are made out of? Probably not, right? We assume it’s just cotton and if it’s on the shelf it must be safe. Or so you’d...

    When we planned our first big trip as a family, Lu When we planned our first big trip as a family, Lukas was under a year old and Morgan was 2. It never occurred to us not to bring them. Plus, we don't really have that kind of help so leaving them at home just wasn't on our radar.  
 
If you have a good support system & are able to get away with your spouse for that much needed connection, that's great!  
 
But, if you don't, you can still go on vacation and experience a new adventure! 
 
So, if you've been wanting to plan that trip but don't know how you'll manage with little ones, I'm here to tell you that you can do it AND that you'll be glad you did! 💞
