I'm just a twenty something stay at home mama trying to do my very best to be awesome at my job. I love Harry Potter, crafting, coffee, red wine and stretchy pants. I used to be a world traveler but I've settled down (for now) to have babies. I'm married to my best friend James and I'm a dog mom to Niko (Goldendoodle) and Rahksi (Chinese Crested). Read More…

Another beautiful day and one more win for nature

Another beautiful day and one more win for nature over playgrounds 🙌🏻. We spent about 30 minutes at the playground today before the kids spent a solid hour in the river! The enjoyment they got out of finding bugs, playing in the mud and splashing in the water hardly even compared to the slides and swings! We even got in some bike riding, a walk, and another playground. After a quick break at home we went to soccer practice! I think we are all sleeping good tonight!!

Maybe we will just start our own little @freefores

Maybe we will just start our own little @freeforestschool since our chapter isn't doing anything these days. Just...probably with less snack sharing. We pretty much did it today when our kids flocked to the water and chose rocks, sticks and mud over swings and slides! We packed in some good ole natural immunities before we went to karate with a friend and then gymnastics! It was an action packed, BEAUTIFUL day and this mom is TIRED and maybe a little overstimulated, not gonna lie 😅🥴.

We had our own snow day today! I let the kids make

We had our own snow day today! I let the kids make a mess so I could have 30 minutes of quiet time. We found some of that "magic" instant snow at the Target dollar spot today...I may have to go snag some more! The kids had a blast using their (gifted) @sandpal_toys to play! Too cold for the beach, too warm for real snow...gotta make our own! And naturally an important 2nd step to messy sensory play...cause and effect! Leopold even enjoyed the next part which was vacuuming up all the mess that ended up on the carpet. Win win!

"Gymmy-nasicks" week 2 and the enthusiasm is still

"Gymmy-nasicks" week 2 and the enthusiasm is still through the roof! Swipe to see evidence 👀. She also loves that she gets gummies after class 🤪. Finley loves doing handstands against the wall, swinging on the bar, and running really fast yelling "CATBOY, GECKO!" and then launching herself onto one of the pieces of soft equipment 😆. It's so fun to watch and she's having a blast! Also 👀 the high top Vans I found for $4 last weekend 🤑. Definitely new favorites!

Just posing with my friends roller skates, kinda wishing I had my own 🙈🙊. I mentioned it to my husband and he laughed and said no WAY I'll get into roller skating. Part of me knows he's right but the other part wants to prove him wrong 😆. Just not ready to break my wrist.

I see all of you with your snow days and I'll raise you a chilly SC day where I wore my beloved @fabletics bike shorts and took a walk with friends. I'm a little jealous of the snow but I just want one day of it...that's all. Then I had a fun trip to urgent care (see my stories) which I haven't had to do in many many years.

After my wisdom teeth and now this pain I've been dealing with, I'm really ready to get moving again!! Remember you can get 2 for $24 leggings from #fabletics on thier website! Check out the link in my bio to get there.

We had these box bottoms from an Aldi trip and I saw the perfect opportunity for this activity! The kids were entertained by this for quite a while and then enjoyed a nice long bath afterwards where they also cleaned up the painted cars. Sound up for Leopold's cute voice over!

"Alright Leopold now I want you to pretend you're

"Alright Leopold now I want you to pretend you're asleep... but don't forget you're still a MODEL. Make sure that shows in your film." -Mr. Jay, ANTM

Yeah I'm still binge watching Top Model 😆 after like 19 seasons you start thinking like them.

When you spend 90% of your time in pajamas, it's worth it to get nice + cute ones! We are loving these new ones from @ergopouch_usa (gifted). They are not too hot not too cold...perfect for these southern winters when the weather could go either way! Have you acquired lots more pajamas over the last year?? We sure have!

Happy Galentines day! Tag your galentines and tell

Happy Galentines day! Tag your galentines and tell them why you love them ❤ I'll pick one comment and send you a $10 Starbucks card tomorrow! I've tagged some of mine in this photo! I have so many but I can only tag 20 🙈 Love you ladies!

Never forget- "You are a beautiful, talented, brilliant, powerful musk ox.”

And

"You are the most beautiful, glowing sun goddess ever.”

I really leveled up today and I am so happy 🥰.

I really leveled up today and I am so happy 🥰. My girl mom dreams are finally coming true! (SWIPE>>>)
For a while it was all "NO TOUCH HAIR!" But now Finley knows the value of an m&m bribe 😆. I also figured out that she will let me brush her hair if I sing the flower song from Tangled.
Do you have any tried and true kid hair hacks???

Proud mama pt. 2 ❤🏅
Finley had her first gymnastics class tonight and was a total pro! It probably helped that she was the only kid in the class for most of it. She was eating up all the applause and attention! Definitely feeling good about this choice. Especially hearing her say "Gymmy-nasicks" the way she does... you can hear it in the 3rd slide if you listen! I can't wait to see how much she learns in the next few weeks! Now to go buy even more leos since I have an actual valid reason to 😆.

MY HEART ❤ ⚽️ I played soccer starting at ag

MY HEART ❤ ⚽️
I played soccer starting at age 5 and stuck with it until I was 12 or 13. The fact that Leopold is excited and enthusiastic about learning how to play makes me SO happy. We went to the park to practice tonight (his season doesn't start for a couple of weeks) and I forgot how much I love playing! I think he may just be a natural at this game. Swipe through and see how good he already is at kicking and stopping the ball! Maybe I'm biased but isn't it my job to be?! We went to @ouaccolumbia and found these cleats today and then @academy sports to get a new ball + shin guards. He was excited about the pink because apparently pink = power!

What sports/extracurriculars did you do as a kid? Have your kids followed in your footsteps? ⚽️⚾️🥎🏀🏐🏈

Check out this week's thrifting haul! $17 total for everything! I think it's pretty obvious what I gravitate to 😆 but you gotta have a niche, right? Coming home and washing/cleaning/sanitizing everything then listing it on my mercari page is so much fun for me! Going to end the day with some PIZZA that I've been craving for two weeks. Still can't open my mouth all the way but I'll make it work 💃.

Practicing our runway walk and learning to "strike

Practicing our runway walk and learning to "strike a pose" in the aisles of Target 🤩. It might seem basic to stroll Target every week (almost) but there's something comforting about it. We love getting to know our favorite employees by name, and that the Starbucks baristas notice when our orders are outside what we normally get. Some weeks we leave with carts full of goodies and sometimes we go just to look at books in "the little house" and scope out what's new and what's on sale. I'm grateful that I have an awesome mother in law who takes the time to hang out with us every week and even kind of helps fill that mom shaped void in my life 🥰. I hope y'all have a great weekend!

We went out TWICE this week 👏🏻👏🏻. I'm

We went out TWICE this week 👏🏻👏🏻. I'm kind of like a bear, because I tend to hunker down and "hibernate" more in the winter...especially this year 😅🙈. But after a couple weeks of being a miserable human being healing from my wisdom tooth removal I was feeling a bit bad for my shut in children. We tried a park date the other day and it was COLD and a little rainy so we didn't last very long. Today we hit up an indoor bounce house place! I'm hurting a little bit still but my kids definitely needed to get out and I'm glad we did it! I've swapped our sippy cups for one big straw cup from @gosiliproducts that I leave empty and just fill using my big water bottle once we are at our destination. At least for now while they aren't drinking quite as much water as they do in summer! And check out Fin's new shoes from @pedipedfootwear!! 🥰🥰

I know it's hard to tell by looking at my feed for

I know it's hard to tell by looking at my feed for the last month, but I do have a son too 😅. He's just about the most loving human being I've ever known, too.

He told me the other day that he was sad he couldn't marry a boy, because he likes boys best. I asked why he couldn't marry a boy and he said "because then our kids wouldn't have a mommy and that would be so sad!" So that opened up a conversation about how sometimes two daddies could be just as good as a mom and a dad. Then he decided no, maybe he likes girls better and wants to marry a girl. I assured him he has plenty of time to decide 😅 and that no matter who he marries, the most important thing is that they are kind and they love him!

I hope my kids always know that they are worthy of love and deserve respect and kindness. I hope they treat others that same way, regardless of WHO people love or what they look like. Kindness and love can go a long way!
