  • Please tell me I’m not the only stay at home mom who looks like a hobo 99% of the time. It’s just that comfort and ease really rank high on my list of priorities these days. Should I be embarrassed?

  • Well, today was a doozy! The perfect storm of a 2-year-old living up to the reputation of her age and a mama PMS-ing hard core. Let’s just say there were lots of tears and yelling from both parties and it was not enjoyable at all! I’ve never been so excited for nap time EVER! Lily got the rest she so obviously needed and I got to meditate and get some much needed peace and calm. Although she woke up moody as heck, I felt ready to take on whatever she threw my way. Seriously mamas, do not underestimate the power of a little self-care! 🙌🏼 . . . . . . #motherhoodunplugged #ohheymama #bestofmom #motherhoodrising #honestmotherhood #uniteinmotherhood #featuremama #mom_hub #momazine #unitedinmotherhood #momtog #lifedailymoms #thebump #momcommunity #mynameismama #dailyparenting #motherhoodslens #mommydiaries #bloggermama #mamablogger #mamablog #inspiremyinstagram #thatauthenticfeeling #verilymoment #littlestoriesofmylife
  • Sometimes during the holidays I feel a little less confident about my single mom-ness. The fact that I don’t have my own home or family unit to create holiday traditions with or a husband to play Santa with makes me feel sad. Then I get on this app and see everyone’s beautiful photos and families and I start to feel even more sad and envious - and to be honest...down right crappy about where I am in my life. Then I stumble across a picture like the one above and all the sadness just melts away. How incredibly lucky am I to have the family that I have! The most amazing supportive parents, the best siblings in the entire world, and a baby girl I love so much it hurts. I mean what more can I ask for?! Besides finding @samheughan lying under the tree Christmas morning. 😉 In all seriousness, if you are finding yourself feeling less than or lacking in someway this holiday season, don’t wallow in self pity too long. Instead, I encourage you to take stock of everything you ALREADY have to be grateful for. Sometimes all you need to feel better is a little dose of perspective. #lifelessonsbysydney . . . . . . #inspiremyinstagram #thatauthenticfeeling #verilymoment #littlestoriesofmylife #momentsofmine #feelfreefeed #visualcrush #theeverygirl #pursuewhatislovely #everydaymoments #lovelylittlesquares #thepursuitofjoy #lifewellcaptured #kindredmemories #subjectlight #inbeautyandchaos #beyondthewanderlust #habitatandhome #thatsdarling #pursuepretty #flashesofdelight #thehappynow #ourcandidlife #documentyourdays
  • One of the biggest things I’ve learned on my motherhood adventure thus far is that no matter how much my child might be like me or how much I want her to be like me, she is NOT ME! It took me almost two years to fully embrace that concept, but I came around to it. Lily might have some of my personality traits, like enjoying cleaning 🙌🏼, but she is her own person in every way and I have absolutely no control over that. I can want her to dress a certain way, act a certain way, like certain things, etc - but she is going to do whatever the hell she wants because she is her own person. Her own mismatched clothes wearing, dirty naked baby doll loving person! Being a control freak myself, that was hard for me to accept, but she kind of gave me no choice. If you are a bit of a control freak mama like me, try this affirmation! I like to repeat it to myself when I’m feeling the need to control too much: I am not here to control my child; only gently and lovingly guide her. ❤️ . . . . . . #momentsinmotherhood #therealparenthood #parenthood_unveiled #momitforward #mumsofinstagram #featuremama #motherlove #strongasamother #motherhoodthroughig #ig_motherhood #motherhoodsimplified #realmoms #nestingly #ohmamamoment #mynameismama #teammotherly #lovelysquares #inspiremothers #honestlymothering #mommyblogger #motherhoodalive #motherhoodlife #motherhoodismagic #motherhoodmoments #motherhoodunite

  • Lily had been watching a YouTube video of a little girl riding a carousel over and over again and saying to me “You do! You do!”, which in Lily speak means “I wanna do that too!” Well, her dreams came true last weekend (unplanned) and my heart just about burst seeing her full of such genuine, pure, magical excitement. Maybe I’ve been reading too many metaphysical books lately, but I think that stumbling across a carousel that day was a gift to Lily from the Universe. And also a gift to me in the form of a beautiful reminder that when dreams originate from an innocent place of joy the Universe makes it happen. We have so much to learn from these magical little beings of ours! ✨🎠🌙 #maybeimahippieafterall . . . . . . #candidchildhood #pixel_kids #enchantedchildhood #childhoodunplugged #childofig #illuminatechildhood #letthekids #letthembelittle #mytinymoments #magicofchildhood #kidsforreal #umh_kids #projectchildhoodb #simplychildren #kidsofig #kidspotmoment #alldaykids #petitejoys #kindredmemories #subjectlight #inbeautyandchaos
