DoThis To Snap Out Of Your Tired Mom Funk Today!

It’s easy to get lost in motherhood.

There are endless books to read, gadgets to buy, places to go and activities to do. So much that you forget what you read, bought, visited and did before that tiny, beautiful creature entered your life. You go from being Kate or Lindsay to being “Piper’s mommy” or “Brady’s mom.”

And, even though parenthood changes you in some of the most amazing ways, the you that existed before is still there. You still have desires, needs, dreams and preferences. You still need certain things to be the best version of yourself and yes, those things have absolutely nothing to do with your children.

If you don’t make your own health, happiness, and wellbeing a priority, then it’s pretty hard to be the mom I know you want to be.

So, let’s all agree that the absolute best thing we can do for our children and families is to fill our own tank!

3 Rules for Buying Clothes

Shopping. Shouldn’t there be rules for buying clothes?

Because here’s the thing about shopping for clothes, it can really go up or down. Am I happy with the weight I’m at? Then shopping is a knockout-good time. Don’t know what I’m looking for? Well, then we get into the gray territory.

When I don’t know what I want, I tend to buy anything. I’ll fall for all the latest trends, regardless if I’m really in love with them or if they even fit in my current wardrobe. Then, a week later, I’ll have major shopping regret when I find that not only does the garment not really fit me but it doesn’t go with anything else in my closet.

So, how can you tell if you should actually buy the clothes you like?

Dinner So Easy, a Three-Year-Old Cooked It!

Do your kids love cooking with you?

My three-year-old son always wants to help. I give him lots of easy jobs like handing me veggies or stirring, but usually, the meals I find require so much chopping and so much of a need to work quickly, that he doesn’t have much to do.

It leaves me flustered, too. You can probably imagine trying to cook when a 35-pound preschooler suddenly wants to be held. You’ve probably done it yourself.

That’s why take-out is so popular in our house.

However, that may be changing. Gobble, a subscription meal service, makes cooking so easy that a three-year-old can do it. In fact, he did do it!!
