    Tailwind App – Post While You Sleep

    May 4, 2019 /

    Have you ever wondered how famous bloggers and influencers find the time to write out heartfelt captions and post pictures on their social media feed every day? I’m gonna let you in on a little secret. They don’t. Instead, they have an app that does this for them. Ladies, I’m about to let you in on the best-kept secret of the online business world, say hello to your new best friend, Tailwind App. Before using Tailwind I was lucky to get one visitor to my site, that wasn’t my mom. But, upon using Tailwind, my website traffic began to spike, quick. My numbers increased by over 1000{cff05f84b557692690786f01aac343ca795d254bba52b32b6e7dc8eb4ccdb223} in two days,…

    April 30, 2019 /

    Do you ever find yourself becoming a little jealous of your stay-at-home momma friends? Do you wish you could find a way to be home with your little ones, but it’s just not in the financial cards? Mommas I’m about to solve all those problems. If you’re reading this, it’s safe to assume you want to know how you can become a stay at home mom.

We chose to homeschool and although it was scary a We chose to homeschool and although it was scary and it took a while to reach that decision, it’s been the best one for our family. 

Since I took the leap and decided to go all in with homeschool, I realized it wasn’t as daunting as I thought it would be and it’s actually been one of the most fulfilling roles I’ve ever taken on. I also realized that homeschool can be whatever you want it to be. 

It’s so special to be there for moments when my kids accomplish or experience something new. I love having such a huge part in teaching them about the world around them and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Our little man is 11 months old! It seems impossib Our little man is 11 months old! It seems impossible that he is already almost a year old! Where has the time gone??

He is into absolutely everything and he’s gotten really fast at crawling. He said his first words this month, “no no no” which is super fitting seeing as he hears it all the time😂🤦🏼‍♀️. 

He loves food! Especially Mac and cheese and ice cream. He keeps us on our toes and we just love seeing him grow and develop. 

Happy 11 months Harv!♥️
Harvey is 10 months old and I just can’t get ove Harvey is 10 months old and I just can’t get over the fact that he will be a year old in just two months! Time has flown!

He is on the move and into absolutely everything. We have our hands full with him! He’s curious as can be and also just the sweetest, cuddle bug. 

He’s standing up on everything and even trying to take some steps and his top teeth finally broke through! Thank heavens!

It’s so fun watching him grow and getting to see his cute personality but sometimes I wish time would stop because I absolutely love this age and phase he’s in. Happy 10 months little man we love you so much!

They may drive each other (and me) crazy but these They may drive each other (and me) crazy but these two are the best of friends and they have my whole heart! 

Also Harvey is 9 months now and curious as can be. He is into EVERYTHING. He crawls around everywhere and is starting to pull up on furniture. 

Let’s just say life has gotten pretty crazy now that we have two kids on the move🤪
