Just want to feel good in a dress as a mom, but it’s nearly impossible to try things on in a store so here’s an Amazon haul of my some dresses I got to try on for Easter. Let me know which is your favroite 🫶🏼

I ordered a medium in every dress and I’m 5’ 9” and 145 pounds if that helps with sizing

Also, fashion is obviously not my strong suit and my oldest moved my ring light in the middle of the recording and I didn’t catch it so quality is subpar 😂

Linked it all in my Amazon storefront + ShopMy + LTK. Can also comment for the links.

I didn’t think I’d feel like myself again this soon.
Or maybe ever, if I’m being honest.
Motherhood changed everything…
my body, my rhythm, my priorities.
But slowly, in little moments like this…
I’m finding pieces of me again.
Not the old me.
A stronger, softer, more grounded version.

Just a mama out here trying to earn some extra money for her family. Can you relate?!

This is our absolute favorite beach toy. We catch a sunset 1-2 times a month and usually only bring this one. The boys are so good at throwing it themselves (usually), but it was super windy last night so they roped dad into it! It doesn’t matter how he lands, he flips upright and surfs into the beach. Totally favorite toy and age appropriate for basically anyone.

If I wanted to start doing more learning activities with my toddler but didn’t want to spend much money… here’s exactly where I’d start.

For about $25 I’d buy:
• a black sharpie
• a pack of colored markers
• dot stickers (or dot markers)
• a roll of craft paper

Craft paper is one of my favorite things because it covers a BIG space and makes it easy for multiple kids to work on something together. Tape it to the table or floor and you instantly have a giant learning canvas.

From there I’d build activities around whatever my kids already love — dinosaurs, cars, animals, holidays, etc.

Then we’d practice colors, numbers, and letters through play.

The next thing I’d spend money on is something with premade letters and numbers. Having a few manipulatives like that makes activities so much easier to set up.

And honestly once you have those basics, you can get really creative using things you already have at home — Cereal, Cotton balls, Toy cars, Stickers, the list goes on.

Simple > fancy every time.

I share lots of easy toddler learning ideas like this for ages 2–4, so follow along if you want activities you can set up in just a few minutes

Living in matching sets lately because they require absolutely no thinking. As a mom of 4, u defy have decision fatigue by the end of the day, so it helps a ton to have outfits that are one piece or two that match. These are how I styles some of them and let me tell you that I’ll be reaching for these all summer long.

Memorial Day outfits for your toddler boy from Target and Walmart

Got a little clothing haul from @thecopperpetaltn and I’m obsessed. I got my true to size medium in both outfits and a 9 in shoes and it all fits so well.

Fun fact: this boutique is in my husbands hometown + they do new drops every week. Their stuff is so adorable and you can use the code Hilary20 for some $$ off!

Simple romper. Inexpensive. Easy to throw on and be on the go. Obsessed

A simple top with a little character with some Jean shorts to look at a house + brunch with the family on a Saturday morning 🤍
