I LOVE Halloween but it’s also hard because I have trouble resisting my kids’ candy. 🙈 Each year I’m guilty of raiding my kids' candy stash and eating one too many sweets than I’d like to admit. ⁣
⁣
This year thanks to @Klondikebar REESE'S and @Breyers REESE'S, I can have frozen treats to satisfy my sweet tooth instead of reaching for my kids’ candy. They taste even better! ;) ⁣
⁣
For the month of October, @klondikebar and @breyers are offering a Buy One Get One FREE offer for Klondike REESE'S Bars and Breyers REESE’s Tubs. #UnileverPartner ⁣
⁣
Offer ends 10/31/21. Submit photos of original receipt by 11/5/21. Limit up to 5 per household. 50+ DC. Full details: m.kou.pn/unilever⁣

Have you heard of RSV (respiratory syncytial virus)? Many parents don’t know about the leading cause of hospitalization among infants under 12 months, and I’ve partnered with Sanofi to help you stay informed. If you’re an expecting parent or have an infant, please read on to help keep our precious babies healthy.

I first heard about RSV at our pediatrician’s office at Rumi’s last baby wellness checkup. She told us that more and more babies are getting sick with RSV these days compared to the previous years.

RSV is the leading cause of hospitalization among all infants under 12 months. Symptoms of RSV can be similar to that of a cold, such as runny nose, coughing, fever, decreased appetite, sneezing and wheezing. Severe RSV disease is unpredictable. Any infant can be hospitalized in their first season.

You can help protect infants through many of the same procedures we use to protect ourselves from COVID-19, such as frequent handwashing, disinfecting surfaces, and refraining from putting your mouth near infants. Please stay aware of the dangers of RSV and tell your friends with babies too!

On growing your family 💫
⁣
These days I look at her in wonder and ask how I imagined my life without her. I planned for 3 kids- 2 girls and 1 boy- so having another was a huge surprise and a step outside of my comfort zone. I don’t have a village nearby and that can feel scary when it comes to adding a new life to the mix. ⁣
⁣
We often come into parenting with a certain number in mind. We tell others we want x amount of boys and x amount of girls thinking it’ll somehow manifest itself into reality. Sometimes it does, and sometimes what you get is entirely different than what you planned. ⁣
⁣
Such is life, and perhaps the latter is the best way to learn the ultimate lesson in parenting: we are not in control, and the beauty of life is revealed in the process of letting go. ⁣
⁣
In doing so, we create more room for magic and surprises, the essence of childhood every adult yearns to retrieve from hours of therapy sessions, Bible study, meditation and journaling. ⁣
⁣
Perhaps that secret is right in front of us the whole time in the form of our child- planned or not. ⁣

Today was our first day back at @greatwolflodge just in time for their Howl-O-Ween celebration and we had the best time!

The Grand Lobby and main street are decked out with Halloween decorations and now through Halloween, you can find the Trick-Or-Treat Trail (don’t miss their ofrenda) and participate in seasonal activities like Monster Bash Dance Party, Critter Cartoons art class and of course, spend your entire day at the 100,000+ sq ft indoor pool.

It was Rumi’s first time and she had the best time in the kiddie area. Swipe to see all the fun we had today and check out @greatwolflodge to visit this holiday season. Thanks for having us and we can’t wait to be back!

My baby went to her first homecoming yesterday and I felt a wide range of emotions from excitement, joy, love to nostalgia. ⁣
⁣
I know some of you can relate to this but I had a rough time in high school trying to fit in, find myself and know my worth. I often felt like I didn’t belong and that’s one feeling I never want to pass onto my own children. ⁣
⁣
Yesterday served as a manifestation of some sort- a reminder of how far we’ve come as a mom and daughter. I’m not a perfect mom but I feel grateful knowing that my daughter is where she belongs with the best group of friends who are free to be themselves and work hard towards their goals. ⁣
⁣
I hope you had the best time last night. Mama loves you soo much and will always be here for you. Don’t ever forget that. ❤️⁣
