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!

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 . These are the kid on thing you woul

Boundaries - - - Time for Childhood

Boundaries is a tricky subject matter. I think some people have a natural propensity for strong boundaries in their lives and some people have to work harder to establish them. When I say boundaries, I am specifically talking about ones ability to establish specific limits and guidelines for certain relationships and activities. I have a natural ability for well established boundaries. Many times friends and acquaintances have come to me seeking advice & recommendation on improving this area. I definitely don't say this to toot my own horn, but to share with you what I know about my successes and areas I still need to work on. One of the reasons boundary discussion can be complicated is that there are so many facets; emotional boundaries, physical boundaries, relationships boundaries & time boundaries... just to name a few. I could write an entire blog post on each facet of boundaries. And maybe I will get to all the points eventually. When you are a momma you

Cheeseburger Bowls

New Recipe! Trying to get back on track with eating. I’ve been like a 12 year old in the gas station market since school has been out! I’m attempting to be more carb conscious again. So I thought I’d work up a new summer recipe. What says summer more than burgers?!? You can certainly go the more traditional route and just 86 the bun or wrap it in lettuce. I wanted something even easier and more time friendly. I notice in summer it becomes a buffet at dinner... eating between sports, activities etc. So being able to make a plate as you need is ideal. Ingredients: Ground beef (I used a pound...easy to adjust for more or less) Season beef with: garlic salt, pepper, onion powder and a couple of splashes of Worcestershire sauce Chopped Iceberg Lettuce Chopped Pickles Chopped Tomatoes Shredded Cheese (Chopped Onions would also be great... but my crew isn’t a big fan) Sesame Seeds *Really any toppings you love on top of a burger would be absolutely great! That is why
