Read MoreCan you believe that back to school is here already? I can’t believe I’m typing these words because I seriously feel like the summer just flew by so fast. Where did the time go?! I’m not complaining though because that means my pregnancy flew by super quick! I can’t believe baby girl will be here so soon, but you all know that by now. While our summer did look a little different this year, we were able to make the most of it together as a family of three. We all had to make tough parenting decisions over the last few months on how our children will be going back to school this year, whether in-class, virtually, or from home! Every family situation is different so I truly hope you were able to make the right decision for your family. Something we all do have in common is looking for creative ways to make lunches for our kids.

Read MoreOur family has been passing some serious milestones over the last few months, including Aimery turning 4 years old!! I wanted to make this birthday feel super special for Aims because it was his last birthday being an only child.

We decided to throw him an Adventure themed party with an ultimate hot dog bar - which happens to be his favorite food. It was a huge hit!
Read MoreSince Halloween seems to be looking a little different this year, I want to make sure Aimery still has the best Halloween yet. He’s been begging to be Catboy from PJ Masks ever since we came home from trick-or-treating last year. I secretly bought it for him and have been keeping the surprise in for quite some time now! I can’t wait to share his reactions with you all, but until then, I wanted to share a super simple Halloween Witches Brew Mocktail recipe with Sparkling Ice that we’ve been loving.
Read MoreWhen I was pregnant with Aimery, I remember some of the best gifts I got from friends and family were premade freezer meals. Caring for a newborn can be stressful and, to be honest, what to cook for dinner wasn’t the first thing on my mind.

Some of my favorite ways to find time for self care in this season is through picking up a new fall candle, doing a face mask, and starting a gratitude journal. Looking to put yourself this season? Keep reading for my 6 favorite self care ideas as we transition to Fall!

We fell in love with air frying immediately, and started learning how to make all of our favorite things air fryed!
