When you don’t want to plan or prep dinner, you get @swisschaletca to go and have a picnic at home ♀️ L was happy bc he got his fave cheese pizza + yam fries, but he decided on having dessert first. I don’t blame him. It was mini donuts and apple pie . Share your story at comehometoswiss.com #ad #comehometoswiss #takeswisshome
My feed has been mostly weddings this year cause wedding go on rain or shine (and it’s been pretty much rain). Thankfully it’s warmed up a bit and the rain is staying away just long enough to get the families outside and back in front of the camera. Loved yesterday walking around @lakekatherine with Quinn and her family! ⠀

S T O P C H A S I N G ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ S O M E O N E E L S E ‘ S D R E A M ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Seriously. Stop looking at someone else’s life or feed and allowing yourself to think “I wish I had that.” No, that’s not your path. Those aren’t your goals. That isn’t your dream. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✖️ Just because it looks pretty and fun, doesn’t mean that it will make you happy. True happiness does not lie in someone else’s hands. It doesn’t come from anyone but yourself. Real happiness comes from doing what you love regardless of what others might think or say. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✖️ Stop going with the flow, stop copying what you think happiness looks like, and please stop comparing your life to someone else’s perfect little squares. We all know most of it’s bullshit anyways. ♀️ Now sit back and ask yourself...what do >>>> I <<< really want. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Good. Now get it. And next time you see a pretty little perfect life, smile and keep walking or ((scrolling )) && move on because this babe (or dude) has got his/her own goals to achieve!

#AD I’ve honestly never been that picky with toilet paper, but my husband on the other hand, is VERY picky lol (still love you, babe!) It wasn’t until we bought #charminultrasoft Ultra Soft Mega rolls that I now appreciate that extra soft quality! Since then Im finding that I’m not having to change the roll as much! (mom win!) @charmin #enjoythego
Happy Monday Families!!! Let’s talk #positivity for a second. What’s one WIN you had this weekend? Aka… say something nice about yourself. As parents, it is so easy to focus on the struggle, feelings of failure and the hard parts of our lives that we forget to stop and see how we are also doing amazing, awesome things everyday. Parenting “success” is not a straight line or an all-or-nothing kinda thing. The days are gonna be hard sometimes, what’s more important, I think, is perspective, and the best way to change your perspective is to change your THOUGHTS. I would dare say most of us don’t take enough time to celebrate all the amazing stuff we DO accomplish on a daily basis. So what’s one WIN you had this weekend? If you can’t think of a specific win, then say something positive about yourself or something you did that you are proud of!!! I’ll go first, this weekend I challenged myself to let my kids make a mess in the kitchen (even tho it’s one of the things that I secretly have a hard time with) and they loved it and I felt good for challenging myself to say yes when I wanted to say no AND be okay with it… so win!!!

“Of all the versions of me that I’ve been, I think the hot mess mama who’s head over heels in love with her kids, totally winging it and not giving AF what others think is by far my favorite.” Motherhood has been the hardest most amazingly beautiful thing I’ve ever experienced! Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing Mamas out there! #selftimer #momphoto #happymothersday #embraceyourmotherhood #embracethechaos #canon @embraceyourmotherhood #hellomamaproject @hellojessiemartin
