Must Have Monday 04/29

Must Have Monday’s have returned!!!!

I’ve been remiss at  continuing with my favorite series on this blog. Must have Monday’s. It’s a post that I highlight a few products that I absolutely LOVE (usually from amazon) that are everyday products that make life easier!

Socks! These are the best no show socks I have ever worn. They are thick and cushy like athletic socks, but do not show at all even in my lowest casual athleisure shoes. Bonus, the heel never slips! I also love that they come in a neutral color palette.


The make up remover wash cloths are so great. They are soft and luxurious feeling. I use these as a first step in my nightly routine in removing my makeup. They are dark gray, which is great for not showing my mascara. These are SO good. The true tale of these came a few weeks ago... if you follow me on IG you saw my kids got into my make up during one of my volleyball games. I could not get the eyeliner off of their faces with baby wipes. I soaked these cloths with warm water and the black eyeliner melted away from their sweet faces. #momwin



Lastly, this gorgeous rose gold crossbody. A while back, I was trying to decide on a new small travel friendly cross body for sporting events and sightseeing. I posted on my stories and let you all vote. Well one of the ones that was so cute and got most of the votes I ordered. When it came in, it was huge! Definitely not what I was looking for. It wouldn’t be allowed at most sporting events and didn’t fit my need parameters. So I sent it back and started again. I ended up with this one! It’s the perfect size and so cute. My regular sized wallet fits in it great and it’s holding up wonderfully! Bonus it’s the exact rose gold color of my new birks!

Motherhood

Motherhood has the unique ability to expose our deepest weaknesses as well as highlight personal substance you never knew was there. In the trenches of the days of no sleep, spit up covered shirts and endless dirty diapers you discover the deepest part of who you are. One thing I have learned in the last almost 10 years of motherhood, is that knowing who I am is vital to my success. As Americans, I see great fear in understanding one’s own weaknesses. I know the opposite to be true. I see strength in your own full self discovery. We see women that look a certain way and are wearing certain things and we think that we have to imitate that to establish our identity. I see women everyday who are stretched to the brink, trying to do it all. As mothers, it’s important to relay to our children that weaknesses are a part of who we are, we are not defined by those rather we are defined by our strengths. When we truly know who we are, we can feel more comfortable making choices t...

Valentines Snack Mix

This snack mix is so easy & versatile for any holiday or activity. This is a super kid pleaser. The variety I made is nut free, there is a peanut allergy in my daughters class.  I started with popcorn & pretzels as my base. I popped my popcorn on the stovetop, you could just as easily use pre-bagged popcorn (Smartpop) or microwave popcorn.  I used 8 cups of popcorn and 3 cups of pretzels. Mix in a large bowl. Next, melt your vanilla coating chocolate. Follow the melting instructions on the package.  I dyed mine pink for the occasion.  Once the coating candy is melted and the right color, pour it over your mix. Stir constantly until is all incorporated. Spread out on parchment or wax paper. I used valentines sprinkles next... this is optional... but too cute to pass up! Next, I did the chocolate covered pretzels. I used the remainder of the bag of pretzels.  Same process as before, but using chocolate. Sometimes this is referred t...

Monday Must Have - - - Closet Clothing Dividers for Kids

Mom's Take back your morning!!!! If you are like me and have multiple school age children, mornings can be stressful and time consuming.  The fight about clothes and hurrying to get dressed in the morning can be endless and infuriating.  I envy those of you whose children wear uniforms to school.  But regardless of if they wear everyday clothes or uniforms this method is priceless. This also allows momma to see if everything they need for the week is clean and ready.  I also hang practice clothes or jersey's with the day of the week of the game etc. I started this when my oldest was in preschool.  It allows us organization and frees our mornings up.  When I started doing this, I used a hanging sweater organizer.  This was a good fit for the closet at the time and it worked for our space.  Now, my oldest two children share a room and closet, so this method works better for us. I ordered colorful set of clothing organizers from Amazon . ...
