  • How to be Marriage Positive with Date Night Check In’s

    February 24, 2021 /

    Marriage positivity isn’t the most popular side of the fence to be on, especially on social media. Needless to say I was super nervous when I hit “post” on some thoughts the other night on IG (find it here). But I was so happy, relieved actually, because my inbox was FLOODED with you amazing women agreeing that marriage positivity needs to win this battle. I’m curious, when did our perception of successful relationships become so heavily weighted by negative quotes on social media. These cliche’s can be so detrimental toward how we perceive the success of our own relationship. I’m speaking from experience on this one. In early marriage I…

    February 3, 2021 /

    Plus a free printable for when you need to refuel! I don’t know about you, but lately I’ve been putting myself majorly on the back burner. Filling ourselves up is the only way we are able to give back and serve others, as well as our home. So if we are running on empty, we aren’t going to get very far in our relationships or goals. Enter, self care.  If you’ve been here before, you probably know my take on the term self care. Long story short, I believe we need more than the commercialized version we know today.  In searching out self care, we see these acts are often quick fixes,…

  • Make a Plan: Five Reasons to Establish Daily Rhythms

    January 20, 2021 /

    When I started into my early motherhood journey, I was clueless. I attempted multiple home management, meal planning and self care routines. I printed charts. I wrote out schedules. But nothing worked for me.  Finding myself so discouraged by my failure, I would throw in the towel. The repetitive cycle of giving up on these systems left me helpless. I felt like my home was always controlling me, and I desperately wanted it the other way around.  Sound familiar? It wasn’t until I discovered the concept of daily rhythms, that I really finally found my footing in motherhood. Setting myself up for success didn’t look like a chart of completed…

    January 13, 2021 /

    Who says you can’t have it all? Finally, simple home management, meets bullet journal, meets planner.  An interactive, simple, step by step guide to find balance between personal goals + tasks, family life and home management. TAP. Finally an acronym that works to my favor. The Accountability Planner has been years in the making. Literally, each and every week for the last three years, I have written out the bones to my planner pages.  Check boxes for my daily *must do* items: Soul Care, Daily Rhythms, Cleaning Rhythms and a few personal trackers. And each year, I get a new planner, and yet the bones to my week never change. …

    PLUS, a free printable that breaks down the path we took to minimize our home, and introduce a simpler life to our family! Since a recent post in a minimalist mama’s group got a lot of attention, I’ve had a few DM’s asking where to get started. I thought this was a great opportunity to share the steps I’ve taken, bloggers I’ve followed, books I’ve read and podcasts I’ve enjoyed while creating a more minimalistic home life for my family.

    When I first started out parenting, I always told myself I’d never be that parent that hangs little charts up (and you know how I feel about those ‘nevers’). It seemed too formal and forced. But once I realized my child was craving independence around two, I realized maybe those charts weren’t so bad after all. In our home we introduced a simple morning and evening routine by placing visual charts up in our daughters’ room. By giving them an easy reminder of the steps they could take on their own, we saw them bloom in independence. They know what was expected of them, and we get to relax a…

Getting a little inspo from some household friends this morning. 🪴 I can’t wait to show you when I’m done! 🤩  The rain this morning reminded me spring is right around the corner. Perfect motivation for a fresh start this month and clarifying a few goals + trackers in my monthly spread. What are you hoping this month brings?  Also... please enjoy this #unfilteredswipe of my Sunday morning view. Life with four kids is never dull.

Today, I chose to focus on contentment in our living room. It’s always been one of my lesser fave spaces. So I’m choosing to give it some love for #throwitthursday and shop our home to use what we already own. It definitely spruced up the space a bit and makes it more homey for sure!  And because Eric and I are opposite, per usual, which is your fave #unfilteredswipe? Colorful spine out, or book pages out?!
I’m curious, when did our perception of successf I’m curious, when did our perception of successful relationships become so heavily weighted by negative quotes sprinkled all over social media? Am I the only one whose fallen victim to them?  In early marriage I struggled. I was suckered in to quotes implying marriage was one size fits all. And when our marriage didn’t fit, I felt like a failure.  So today on the blog I’m sharing our early marriage experience and how we choose to combat anti marriage culture with some marriage positivity, date night check ins, and this FREE Date Night Check In printable!

My goal this week, dream. There’s a necessary hu My goal this week, dream. There’s a necessary human element missing from our lives and it has a lot to do with embracing the empty space + letting our minds wander. We set our children up for boredom so they can grow in creativity, imagination and independent thought. But what about us? I think we need a little bit of boredom too. What do you think? Are you craving the quiet of boredom?  Loving this weekly spread more and more as I embrace the empty space. Not going to lie, at first it felt a little awkward. But I’m loving pushing the boundaries, and even letting a little bit of that creative space spill into the structure of my day columns. 😍 TAP planner is available for digital download on my blog, link in bio!

I’m crazy, right?! Thinking she needs a new spot for a while. All and any input welcome! 🙏🏻
