10 DIFFERENT PAINT COLORS!! 🎨

🤣
Yes, the sales associate at @homedepot was very confused.

🤣🤣
Also, yes, my poor patient husband looked at paint colors with me for a longgg time!

So to save you time...I am posting the colors I used!!

Colors from @behrpaint at @homedepot !

Let me know if you do this!! I would love to see 🚀🌈

NOTE: the dark blue backdrop is called, Very Navy and the white clouds and rocket is called, Frosting Cream.

TANTRUMS + MELTDOWNS
(Oh...and the stomping up the stairs 😪)

🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ Does this also sound like your day?!

I am no expert. I am just a mom who sometimes can only handle a few meltdowns a day before I scream and go crazy myself.

🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ Anyone with me?

.

✨Here are some things that have worked for us and the kids! (Hopefully, it’ll help you and your kids too!)

1️⃣ 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡
instead of criticism. The best way to help our kids “get over it” and stop their whining is helping them through it.

🚫 “Stop whining!”
👍 “I understand you’re angry and feel upset...”

2️⃣ 𝗣𝗢𝗦𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗩𝗘 𝗟𝗔𝗡𝗚𝗨𝗔𝗚𝗘
instead of negative words and tone.

Remember, your kids’ emotions matter just as much as ours. They should always know that. Like adults, kids need a safe space physically and mentally.

3️⃣ 𝗙𝗢𝗢𝗗 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗦𝗟𝗘𝗘𝗣
Sometimes they are just hangry (angry because they are hungry) or need sleep! Their body has basic needs like us and they need to refuel too.

4️⃣ 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗛𝗘
This is a great way to center them and for you too while dealing with stressful and anxious times.

🐰🐰Bunny Breathing
This is effective and fun for the kids!

👃 Sniff 1 time
👃👃 Sniff 2 times
👃👃👃Sniff 3 times

Take 1 deep breath in and out
(repeat as needed)

⬇️ ☀️ ⬇️ ☀️ ⬇️
Do you have any tips or reminders that you do during these moments with your little ones??

I would love to know because each day is different and each kid is different.

Parents, we got this!
Sometimes, we will yell and scream and that’s okay. But getting resources to better equip ourselves for the future is key👌.

🌼Can you spot the California Poppies on the ground?🌼

🇺🇸✨🇺🇸✨🇺🇸✨🇺🇸
Did you know that poppies are worn to remember and honor fallen soldiers? (typically, the red poppies)

✿ ✿ WHY POPPIES? ✿ ✿

🌿Poppies are resilient!

🌿Poppies grow in the most unlikely places, such as, desolate battlefields.

🌿Even in the most desolate places, soldiers would see poppies bloom in the spring like tiny beacons of hope.

🌿 The poppy flower has become a symbol of remembrance and hope for future peace.

🇺🇸✨🇺🇸✨🇺🇸✨🇺🇸
May we always honor the men + women who died while serving our country. May we never forget that freedom is never free. Thank you for your sacrifice and the gift of freedom.

Happy Anniversary, my love!! ♥️

Throwing it back to our engagement photos in the sand dunes...where Star Wars was filmed.

And then we got married where Jurassic Park was filmed.

No, I’m not the movie nerd.
I’m just a very compromising and the best wife, OK?!

Lol jk jk, these places are actually stunning without the dinosaurs and jedi’s and storm troopers running around! (Of course, my husband begs to differ...)

Love you, Brett! ♥️
Even if you are a movie nerd.
And still collect dinosaurs, but say they are “for the kids.” 😂😂

AND added bonus if its made with a handful of wholesome ingredients! 🙌

@wasausa Multi Grain crispbreads are packed with flavor! It is a perfect blend of four wholesome grains: rye, wheat, oats and barely.

It is the perfect addition to every charcuterie board! My husband and I love to top our @wasausa Multi Grain crispbreads with:

🌱 Hot mustard
🌱 Salami
🌱 Gruyere Cheese

YAY! For good-

🌼 WHAT IS GROUNDING?!
Did you see my post earlier this week?
I posted 4 Natural Ways that can help anxiety.

(Look 2 posts back 😉➡️😉➡️)

Truthfully, I’ve been getting anxiety attacks ever since I was a child.

How I cope with it now is DIFFERENT than when I was younger. The BIGGEST DIFFERENCE is that I try my best to catch myself and get a grip of my feelings.

⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️

🌱🌼🌿🌼🌱🌼🌿
I take these anxious moments and turn them into moments to ✨ GROUND MYSELF ✨

⬆️ ⬆️ ⬆️

🤷🏼‍♀️ WHAT IS GROUNDING? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Grounding yourself is all about balancing your physical, emotional, mental and energy state and reconnecting them.

There are many grounding exercises and techniques (which is the beauty of it!) to use mental distractions to help redirect your thoughts away from distressing feelings and back to the present.

Check out my post on for 4 Natural Techniques to kick anxiety in the booty!!

Because, guess what?
YOU GOT THIS!! I believe in you.

You.
Are.
Not.
Alone.

💗💗💗💗
PS: I hope these tips help you as much as it helps me!

Remember,
Your mental health matters,
Just as much as your physical health.

I’m in love with Igloo Retro Collection!! There are so many fun colors to choose from.

I fell in love with this watermelon color!

How could you not smile when you see the radical capsule of throwback coolers originally released in 1992?! @igloocoolers still continue to be an outdoor staple that everyone needs. 

The tradition continues with #IglooCoolers!
