Sometimes you just have to put your life on do not Sometimes you just have to put your life on do not disturb. Whether it’s a day date, a girls day or even a weekend getaway with your significant other, sometimes you have to forget about everything else and just have fun.

We planned a super last minute trip to Nashville (planned it hours before heading to the airport) and it was the perfect way to disconnect from stress and reconnect as a couple. I got my parents to keep my daughter for the weekend, I forgot about my messy house and laundry I needed to do and instead packed a carry on bag to head to the airport. We didn’t have a single thing planned and somehow it all worked out perfectly. Be spontaneous! Put your life on do not disturb. It’ll recharge your batteries.
Having a child in Kindergarten means she picks up Having a child in Kindergarten means she picks up all the common colds at school. #ad IYKYK. And every time she gets sick, it just means that I’ll be sick a few days later. After spending the better part of 2 years locked in the house avoiding germs and illness, I’m over it. I want to have fun and enjoy all the things with my daughter. Rather than isolating, I’m doing everything I can to help prevent the spread of illness-causing germs. I’ve been using Lysol® Disinfectant Spray, Lysol® Disinfecting Wipes and Lysol® Laundry Sanitizer at home and so far it’s helping a ton. These @Lysol products kill 99.9% of viruses and bacteria, when used as directed.

I always spray her backpack and sneakers with the Lysol® Disinfectant Spray when she gets home from school to avoid bringing those school germs into our home.  I add Lysol® Laundry Sanitizer to my laundry, which kills 99.9% of bacteria that detergents leave behind* (*when used as directed), which I especially love for washing her school uniform. I also use Lysol® Disinfecting Wipes to wipe down all my hard surfaces. These are just some of the little things I’ve added to my routine to help prevent the spread of illness-causing germs during cold and flu season. And it’s a great excuse to stop by my favorite store @target. #homehacks #fightonwithlysol #disinfectant #fluseason #stayhealthy

Tomorrow I turn a year older and it’s made me re Tomorrow I turn a year older and it’s made me realize how many amazing things I’ve done in these past 35 years. Here are my top 10 favorite trips/moments/memories so far!

Yesterday I was speaking to someone about past travel and found a few old photos to show. When I got home I went down the rabbit hole looking at old photos and even I couldn’t believe how many amazing things I’ve seen. I could easily make 20 more of these videos. It’s so hard to narrow it down to just my 10 favorite trips/memories.

I’m so excited for all of the adventures to come! There’s so much left to see and do. Cheers to 36 (one more day!) and a whole bunch of new adventures with my family ❤️
Having a picky eater is so hard! Here is the only Having a picky eater is so hard! Here is the only solution that has worked for my daughter, and trust me when I tell you I’ve tried just about everything. We use this app called Sad Face Chart, but only use the happy face portion of it. Each time my daughter tries something new she gets a happy face. Once her chart is full, she gets a prize and then we start over. It’s that simple.

Some call it bribery, I call it positively reinforcing trying new foods. 🤪 Honestly, it has been amazing for us. She went from eating less than 10 things total to eating just about anything. I’m all for doing whatever works and this has worked incredibly well for us.

I’m pretty sure I first learned about this chart from @jennhallak. ❤️
In a little over a week I’m turning another year In a little over a week I’m turning another year older, but I’m already celebrating. Who doesn’t celebrate their whole birthday month?! I kicked off my birthday celebrations with a very princess week in our Disney house with friends and family because Disney days are my favorite days.

For as long as I can remember I have used @Evite for any event I’ve hosted, and you know I host a lot. #ad I have the app on my phone making it so easy to make an invitation for any event. The best part is that it can be sent via email or text to your contacts. For my birthday week, I chose a Belle invitation (obviously) because I was celebrating in the Belle House. My family and friends joined me for a fun filled princess week including an evening at Epcot, a beautiful brunch and even a day at the water park with the kids. Birthday celebration part 1 was so much fun!  #evite
HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎆 Wishing you an amazing 2023 f HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎆 Wishing you an amazing 2023 filled with love, laughter, health and lots of new adventures ❤️
I honestly forgot how many amazing things we did a I honestly forgot how many amazing things we did and how many beautiful places we visited til I put this reel together. 2022 was really good to us. Cheers to 2023! Wishing you all a year full of amazing memories 😘
This is what happens when mommy works in social me This is what happens when mommy works in social media… full blown photo shoot every month! Thank goodness she doesn’t mind it 😂
I know Christmas is over, but I’m a procrastinat I know Christmas is over, but I’m a procrastinator and left the Christmas playhouse picture for the last week and then the weather didn’t cooperate. Every day the past week it has either been raining or freezing outside (in the 40’s and 50’s which is this Miami girls version of “freezing”). I finally got to set it up and photograph her yesterday… after Christmas. I almost skipped it, but it’s likely our last playhouse photoshoot… she’s totally outgrown this house.

She got her playhouse for Christmas when she was 2. Three years later and she’s way too tall for it, so I had to photograph her sitting in front of it. Should I do a few more holiday shoots or move on to something else? Not gonna lie, I’ll miss our holiday playhouse photos.
2022 you were good to us. I can’t believe the ye 2022 you were good to us. I can’t believe the year is coming to an end. We had so much fun as a family and made some amazing memories that I’ll have forever.
