I'm a new-ish blogger/influencer/content creator with a little over a year under my belt (but a little under a year since my re-name, which is when it all really started). In the new year, I hope to put many of my ideas into action and focus on more relationship based collaborations than one time posts. I feel this would be a better representation of my lifestyle and also grow trust with my audience enough to ditch the "influencers don't preach what they post" mentality. Ideally, I will add more food and travel content as my soul is a gypsy and my belly a dinosaur. Cheers to greater energy in 2020!

Mostly I think it is attributed to the fact that I like to take it one day at a time, because this is our forever journey and it will evolve. It started with once in a while, and we wrote it off as a terrible witching hour that was very quickly started to dread. I noticed he was STILL seemingly choking or having trouble with excess gulping and thankfully right around his third month, we discovered the preemie nipples to the Dr. Brown bottles. My mom said she noticed him not catching himself on that side too, but didn’t want to worry me and thought he would just outgrow it, or that she was just over analyzing too.
And I say that because I agree it is serious to SOME demographics (particularly the elderly or those with respiratory health concerns) but in all honesty, looking at the stats and the symptoms, for the rest of us, it is a bad cold/flu. And while I appreciate her teacher for informing them and for teaching them how to properly wash their hands (her teacher is THE best honestly), I wish the adults would get the same memos and stop buying out the entire supply of toilet paper. ’s gunna be ok when you get a text from me contemplating homeschooling for the 400th time this week. Also, all jokes aside, let’s take a step back and have a little compassion for those with compromised immune systems and the elderly.
I’ve talked to so many clients who try to meal plan, but feel it’s too complicated, time-consuming or doesn’t fit their lifestyle. That’s why I want to dive into a simplified meal-planning process that will have you shopping your pantry, saving time, money and reducing food waste! For instance, if you have a lot of veggies in the fridge that need to be eaten, plan on making some of your dinners revolve around things like soup, salad, pasta sauce or fried rice – dinners that you can throw a lot of random items into, and still have it taste great. But if you stick to it week by week, in three months, you’ll have more space in your pantry, you’ll be more intentional about your shopping, will save money and reduce your food waste.
At one point I even just slapped the bleach all over my head (which is TERRIBLE for your head if you have scalp psoriasis by the way) and thought “Yay, now I’ll really be blonde!!! And actually there was one point at which I toned it and used enough shampoo to actually like it, but this yellow hot mess I showed up at Sharon’s with was about 4 weeks since its last bleaching/toning. A good friend of mine, Michelle of Its Brown Time (check out their IG here), has been going to Sharon for some time now and tells me great things about her often. You see when you find yourself unemployed and try to turn a hobby into a potentially fruitful career, things like getting your hair and nails done get thrown on the back burner and you go into survival mode with the exception of a good time with your closest friends or your family to keep you motivated.

I love my Sunday’s full of football, my wings Blazin and my @shamrockfarms milk chocolate flavored. [Sponsored by Shamrock Farms] 🍶 ☘️ 🍶 Did you know that the best way to cool down taste buds after enjoying spicy food is by drinking milk, NOT water?! Mom hack: next time you’re in enjoying @bwwings, order Shamrock Farms milk for your little one and have it on deck for when your mouth starts to burn! Besides, you’ll feel good knowing Shamrock Farms milk has less sugar than comparable brands, is locally sourced from its family of farms and is the no. 1 source of calcium offering 8g of protein. #ShamrockFarms #ShamrockFarmsBeatTheHeat #BeatTheHeat #SocialSpotters #drinkmilk #shamrock #bdubs #bdubslife #bww #buffalowildwings #wingsandmilk #daddydaughtertime #daddysgirl
✨Believe in the magic of memory making. Presence > presents.✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ So often we see memes and posts about giving our loved ones our time instead of gifts and we vow to make a change but be honest, does it happen? This Christmas I challenge you to do just that. @getoutpass is the gift that gives all year long with admission to fun and attractions in your area, and right now it’s just $74 with promo code HOLIDAY (ends today)! I’ve made it even easier for you and created a PRINTABLE gift giving booklet that is downloadable on my blog, so that you can give something tangible now! Both are linked in my bio and I’ll also share how I put Ari’s booklet together in my stories a little later. She made this friend on our last visit to @sixflagsdiscoverykingdom a few weeks ago. He was obsessed with the little elephant in her hand so she shook it around and he played with her for the most awestruck 20 minutes of her life. 🥰 #GetOutPartner #GetOutPassSacramento #GetOutPass #SixFlagsDiscoveryKingdom #SixFlags #seals #sealion #ArielleReign #makememories #givepresence #presenceoverpresents #sacfamily #Sactivities #sacramento #916 #SacramentoCA #VisitSacramento #whattodoinsacramento
When my boy sleeps, he still sleeps like a baby. The problem is getting there. Not because he has a hard time falling asleep but because he doesn’t know how to on his own come bedtime and we’ve got to lay down with him every time to make it happen. But @LittleOnesBabySleep is here to change that! #MomSelectPartner 😴 😴 😴 Over the next month we’re trying a sleep program to help guide baby Koda to a more independent sleep using Little Ones’ Settling and Self-Settling methods. I was so relieved to hear it isn’t just the “cry it out” method cause I’ve personally never been a fan of that! Follow along here and on my blog to see how Little Ones Sleep Program is working for us and check out their site to see if they have a program that can help you. Sleep is everything but it doesn’t have to be difficult!
