✨ Where does the time go? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How can I be 30... 3-0... three-zero?? I certainly don’t feel that old, but isn’t it crazy how the days seem so long, and the years just fly by?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I was always told this, but never truly understood it until I had a family of my own. We need to cherish every single day we have because one day we’ll look back, and wonder just where those days went. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In my 30 years here on this earth, I have learned so much. So much about life… So much about love… So much about being a mom… And, in just the last 10 years I’ve gotten married to my best friend,moved 2 times, built our first home, and had 2 beautiful baby girls — and those are just a few of the highlights.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If this is what 30 looks like, and God has even more planned for me, I can’t wait to see what’s in store! 🥰 Buh-bye 20s 👋🏽... Hello 30s! Here’s to many more blessings, memories, laughs, tears and everything in between 🤗💕⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Thank you for all the sweet birthday wishes... you know how to make a girl feel special 😘🎂🎉

Just the other day, I let Finley play a game on the iPad, so I could get supper ready. I went to check on her 5 minutes later, and she had managed to find her way to YouTube and was watching videos. Luckily, they were just cute cartoons, but it got me thinking about all the other bad things out there in the web she could be exposed to. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So, my husband and I started looking into parental control apps to manage the content she is able to view. #ad ...We are so thankful we found the @ourpact.app! In just a few easy steps, we were able to link the iPad to our phones and start creating a more secure place for our daughter to learn and play. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The app is so flexible + easy to customize, and it’s a great way implement healthy digital habits for your little ones by managing screen time and setting up schedules for multiple children. We also love how it works across Apple and Android products, that we can manually override at any time, set a bedtime on the app for Finley, and when she gets older, we’ll receive notifications anytime she goes outside a geofenced area — talk about peace of mind for a parent 🥰❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you’re looking for a way to create a healthy balance of screen time and facilitate more quality family time, click the link in my bio and download the OurPact app! #hbtourpactfebruary #hbtsp #techhealthyfamily #screentime #parentingtips #safetechtime

Oh hey there! How’s your Monday going? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This past weekend was a fun one celebrating my birthday this upcoming week + a productive one as well! And, for the first time in a while, I feel like I am actually starting the week out ahead instead of behind. So refreshing! 😅😅 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve been listening a little closer to that voice in my head telling me to take a break... so, I made a list of things I wanted to do for MYSELF this weekend — things I’ve been wanting to get done for weeks — and I tackled all of them 💪🏽 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I took time for myself... made a list... and truly made time for REST this weekend, like He has been telling me to do for far too long, and I have never felt better 🙏🏽❤️🥰 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Just a friendly reminder... Listen to what he’s telling you to do this week first and I think you’ll find you’ll feel more fulfilled at the end of another long week 🤗🥰

✨ Make time for yourself because when you’re filling YOUR cup, everyone else is getting the BEST of you instead of what’s left of you ✨ . I feel like I talk a lot about this here, but it’s so important! And, I feel like it’s something that I have to work on every.. single.. day — It’s a balance. Anyone else? How many of you can honestly say you take enough time for yourself? If you do, I wish I could be more like you, but mom guilt always gets the best of me, and I feel like I don’t need/deserve it. I chose motherhood, and this is just how it’s supposed to be, right? . Wrong! You NEED your YOU time! I am starting to see this more and more with each passing day. If you don’t take the time you need to be yourself, you begin to lose yourself in the day-to-day… The demands from your kids... from work… from life in general. It’s all exhausting, and it will get the best of you if you let it. Don’t let it!! . Lately, I’ve been feeling like I’ve lost a little bit of myself being a mom.. I haven’t been doing anything that fuels me.. anything I feel passionate about.. anything I want to do, and it’s draining me! Furthermore, Finley’s three-nager attitude was getting out of hand as well — we all needed a break! . So, yesterday I took my first day of “me time” in a very long time, and I can’t tell you how big of a difference it made — I didn’t have a short fuse, I felt like I could be present when I was playing with the girls, I could actually focus on the task right in front of it. Oh, and Finley’s attitude took a 180... It was so refreshing!!😅 . So, I’m challenging you to do the same. Show yourself some love this Valentine’s Day. Do something that makes you happy. Do something that fuels you. Do something that fills your cup. It’s not selfish! It’s selfless!

Our Thursday mood typically looks like this — you know, somewhere between a cry and a laugh 🤷🏼‍♀️😭😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So goes motherhood... But, I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world 🥰💕💕 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ PS...I’ve linked some of our favorite @littletikes toys in my LIKEtoKNOW.it — just screenshot this photo 📸 🛍
