    My “Go To” Lunch Right Now

    THIS POST IS IN PARTNER WITH DAILY HARVEST. ALL THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS ARE MY OWN. PLEASE VISIT MY DISCLAIMER PAGE FOR MORE INFORMATION. Hey y’all! As you know, we have expanded our family by one more – sweet Vivi is here! We are loving on her 24/7 and that’s pretty much been my life since she joined us. Her and I have spent our days and nights lounging in bed so my body can heal after giving birth. Since I am recovering and breast feeding, it’s super important that I fuel my body with healthy and nutritious foods. I have preached the importance of eating this way since my blog…

    My Must Have Baby Registry Items

    This is going to be super short and sweet because baby registries should all be both of those. I’ve learned that with babies come lots of “things” and less is more.

When I was pregnant with Nolan, I remember going to Target with the scanner and just scanning so much junk. Junk that my friends and family paid for and literally sat in piles at my house unused after the baby came. Y’all,…

    Vivianne “Vivi” Jackson is Here!

All of my babies have very different birth stories and I am so happy to be able to have experienced all of them the way that they happened. God has a plan for us even when we don’t know it and that really does hold…

    Christmas is Coming

    There are 61 days left until Christmas. Did I just freak you out? Don’t worry, I didn’t just drop that bomb to run away. I’m here to share how YOU can go ahead and knock out all your gifting plus snag some special holiday purchases for yourself! The Beautycounter 2019 Holiday Sets exceeded my wildest dreams this year! I had the chance to see these up close and personal weeks before they launched and my eyes were as big as cups when I saw them! It reminded me of an Oprah show taping where she surprised the entire audience with free products. It was unlike anything I had ever experienced. Every year the Holiday…

    3rd Trimester Must Haves

    This pregnancy has FLOWN by. I cannot believe I am at the end and it makes me so sad. The third trimester can be difficult but I’m here to share a few things that have helped me navigate and make it easier. Pregnancy Pillow – I resisted buying one this go around but ya’ll… it’s a game changer. I can comfortably sleep again, thank you Jesus. This one is super soft but also doesn’t break the bank. It was less than $40. TOTALLY WORTH IT! Charcoal Facial Mask – Ohhhh ya’ll, the struggle with hormonal acne is real. I depend on this mask 2-3 times a week to save my…
