This post is sponsored by Modern Oats. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. Let’s be real moms… when do you get time to eat? Ok, now I want to know, when you do get to eat, is it hot? Or you grabbing something unhealthy because it’s convenient or settling for a cold cup of coffee? With every addition we add in our family, MY time decreases a little more. Let’s not even get into how hectic the holiday season is!

Let me tell y’all a little secret. My hair is my security blanket. I am still shocked at myself for cutting it… but all the post partum hair fall out and regrowth gave me no choice!

Being a perfectionist and having OCD during this stage of life is actually quite comical. My kids have really done a number on me and keep me on my toes. I have learned SO much about myself during this and the most important thing is presence over perfection. My children need me now, more than ever. Although, I have goals for myself, I realize that my children are so…

Brussels and Beet Noodles, My Go-To Recipe Right Now
With Thanksgiving RIGHT around the corner, I felt like it would be the perfect time to share one of my go-to recipes for fall. I am someone who often falls into the cooking the same things for every meal category and I have to switch it up or I’ll start making bad food choices. Fall and winter bring out some of my favorite recipes and I am so excited to be able to share them with y’all. Being a mom of three has gotten me think outside of the box for meal ideas, especially in the easy prep category. I have grown to love baking my veggies and quickly sautéing…
