How to Incorporate romance when you have a house full of children
My husband and I have been married for almost 9 years. We’ve had kids for all 9 of those years so getting out the house for date nights and even spending the night away from the kids, together hasn’t been the easiest. It has allowed us to get created and think outside of the box when it comes to “our time.” During our years together, we have really focused on making sure we keep our relationship healthy because we both agree that our marriage is important and it’s always something we should focus on, no matter how kids we have or how limited our babysitting resources have been.

Tips for a 5 minute FLAWLESS + NONTOXIC makeup routine!
With five kids to raise and 3 businesses to run, I’ve got to fill you in a little secret. MOST of the time, I do my makeup in the car (parked safely of course) because it’s the only time they are all busy and contained where I can actually DO my makeup. My secret to not looking like a zombie is the Flawless in Five bundle from Beautycounter. I apply it all in five minutes or less which is pretty much the only time I have to get it done.

Upper Body Workouts You Can Do Anywhere
Are you wanting to help add more definition to your arms outside of carrying babies and grocery bags? I’ve got you! I love working on my arms and building muscle strength. This is something I work on every day in yoga but also love working on targeted areas when I have extra time. On arm day you can find me rotating these…. I personally suggest starting somewhere with lower reps and building on as your endurance gets bigger. I made sure to share ones that are also easily modified based on level and able to be done anywhere. Push ups – I could not do full push ups until this…

My Top Nontoxic Baby + Kid Products
My children’s favorite time of the day is BATHTIME! At any mention of the word bath, they are smiling and laughing with each other, trying to strip off their clothes and jump in the tub! They play together and splash around, I normally always oblige and clean up the water that travels out of the tub and let them play until they are nice and pruney! We don’t have a set schedule for their baths; it just happens organically every day sometimes multiple times a day at that. Whenever their bath time occurs, I know I’m in for lots of bubbles and lots of giggles! Bath time isn’t only fun…
