  • Lily took herself for a walk today. Anyone else’s child prefer pushing the stroller to sitting in it? If she could just grow a little taller and a little stronger, this could actually work to my advantage. #givemomaride . . . . . #littlepiecesofchildhood #watchthemgrow #mytinytribe #toddlerhood #theheartcaptured #writeyouonmyheart #littlefierceones #nestingly #childhoodunplugged #pixel_kids #instakid #littleandbrave #childrenofig #candidchildhood #letthembelittle #kidsforreal #darlingmovement #mommyandme #childhoodeveryday #wildandfreechildren
  • This right here is my reason. My reason for trying harder, my reason for doing better, my reason for doing whatever it takes. That smile keeps me going, keeps me looking ahead, keeps me hoping. When I start losing sight of what truly matters, how lucky am I to have those beautiful blue eyes right there to remind me. ❤️ . . . . . #momentsinmotherhood #therealparenthood #parenthood_unveiled #momitforward #motherlove #strongasamother #motherhoodthroughig #ig_motherhood #motherhoodsimplified #realmoms #themagicofchildhood #adventuresofchildren #wildandfreechildren #littlefierceones #childrenseemagic #mytinymoments #kindredmemories #beautifulbabies #ourchildrenphoto #stunningbabies #candidchildhood #enchantedchildhood #childhoodunplugged #raisingthefuture #documentyourdays
  • Coming from a large family and being 1 of 5 children one of my biggest fears is that I won’t be blessed with more babies and Lily will grow up an only child. My siblings are my best friends and I don’t want her to miss out on that! However, I find such peace in knowing she has the most incredible cousins who adore her and treat her as if they were siblings. Watching them together makes my heart happy. Also, Lily’s face is this picture. 😍 I want more!!! 😭😭😭 . . . . . #stunningbabies #candidchildhood #pixel_kids #enchantedchildhood #childhoodunplugged #childofig #illuminatechildhood #letthekids #letthembelittle #mytinymoments #magicofchildhood #kidsforreal #projectchildhood #simplychildren #kidsofig #kidspotmoment #the_sugar_jar #alldaykids #petitejoys #kindredmemories #subjectlight #inbeautyandchaos
  • Taking a toddler anywhere is never simple. Actually, it can be downright exhausting. For someone like me who suffers from major anxiety, taking Lily out of the house doesn’t seem worth it sometimes. However, this weekend I let her play in one of those germ infested, accident waiting to happen play areas in the mall. I was the only parent who didn’t sit down to watch their child play. I followed Lily around like a crazy person making sure she wouldn’t hurt herself the entire time. I was so nervous I was sweating and shaking. Like anxiety to the max! Lily on the other hand...she was having the time of her life! Seeing her so happy mad me feel like a horrible parent for depriving her of joy because of my own fears. After she was done playing and I covered her hands in antibacterial lotion, I made a promise to myself to better about not letting my fears become hers. I have to let her experience the world, even if it means being uncomfortable for a while. If you are a mama who suffers from anxiety too, I challenge you to do the same! I promise those sweet smiles will be worth every moment of discomfort. ❤️ . . . . . #motherhoodintheraw #motherhoodisthebest #mommyandme #bloggermum #mommyblog #themotherhoodcorner #wellwateredwomen #mommystatus #momdotme #mommylifestyle #our_everyday_moments #inspiremothers #cameramama #teammotherly #messy_motherhood #motherhoodrocks #thisismotherhood #ourcandidlife #parentinglife
  • Raise your hand if you love shopping for your kids more than yourself! I spent an entire day last week shopping online for Fall clothes for Lily and I’m almost embarrassed to say how much joy it brought me. As the day went on and I wasted more time and money, I started to feel guilty. Not for the act of shopping itself but for how happy is was making me. Shopping shouldn’t be the highlight of my week, right? But then I thought...being a mom is hard. Being a single mom is really hard. Actually just being a person in 2018 is hard. Some days, the world can seem so scary and it’s hard to find joy in anything. I say, it’s okay to find joy in something frivolous and light! It’s okay to be happy and excited that your child will have clothes that fit them and keep them warm! So I’m coming on here today to say to you, if you’re feeling guilty about finding joy in something you might call frivolous, whatever that may be, just don’t. Instead just feel grateful and appreciate every second of that joyful feeling. . . . . . #momentsinmotherhood #therealparenthood #parenthood_unveiled #momitforward #motherlove #strongasamother #motherhoodthroughig #ig_motherhood #motherhoodsimplified #realmoms #mynameismama #teammotherly #inspiremothers #honestlymothering #motherhoodalive #motherhoodlife #motherhoodismagic #motherhoodmoments #motherhoodunite
