Constantly reminding myself: It’s okay; SLOW DOWN✨

I often feel so overwhelmed with the idea that as a mother, as a wife, as a content creator & online life-sharer I don’t do enough.. I get caught up in so many ideas that hardly come to fruition due to factors I feel without control of, and while I could push the envelope, do the work, and make them happen… I feel much more at peace at the moment with just letting things “be” at this stage of my life.

This concept feels so foreign to the lifestyle I’ve been raised in and around, like if you aren’t doing “something” then you’re doing “nothing,” and I’ve quickly come to realize that simply isn’t the mindset I’m equipped to maintain these days.

Thankful for every soul who sticks around, physically/spiritually/virtually, no matter the season🥰

In 2023, I want to create more purposeful content, so here's a video w/ a piping hot side of vulnerability🙂

This video was created with the intention of hopefully inspiring & encouraging my fellow mamas out there, and to serve as a time stamp of where I currently am and to honor the season I'm in, and the path I hope to pave the way for in the coming year✨

MY SECOND LABOR & DELIVERY VLOG IS LIVE✨🤰🏽➡️🤱🏽👶🏽🤍

Videos like this are so special to me because not only do I get the chance to look back on the end of my pregnancies and be reminded of such unique experiences bringing our babies into the world, but also they serve as a core memory of how small my little ones once were which will forever be priceless✨

If you watch until the end, you'll see Masen's reaction to meeting his new baby brother, and that is a moment I will never forget🥹

LET THE BABY PREPPING BEGIN🤰🏽👼🏽

With about 5 weeks left to prepare for our newest arrival, I thought I'd take some time to check out some freezer meal prep recipes to see what would be a hit (or miss) for us! We didn't do this with Masen bc we felt there was adequate amounts of food & options around us to stay fed, but with our current situation, we wanted to be prepared just in case!!

If you would have asked me at 17 where I saw myself in 10 years, I would have never even imagined being as blessed as I am today.
