Latest on the blog: Gender Neutral Vintage Inspired Nursery⁣
⁣
A gender-neutral nursery is great because it can easily transition from one sibling to the next and allows kids to share rooms like mine.
⁣
For my 4th baby, I chose to decorate around items and furniture we already owned- so I added creams, browns and touches of mauve & gold to my son’s existing room. ⁣
⁣
You can find all the details of Gia’s gender neutral nursery with vintage details on the blog. I repurposed an old dresser, hung two $5 vintage frames and chose furniture that’s functional, well-priced and can transition as the baby grows. I also share my favorite baby products for any nursery. Link in bio & swipe to see the product guide. ⁣

Do you believe you can turn your greatest challenge into your greatest gift? I do, and I’m living out this miracle everyday through my daughter Elise. ⁣
⁣
It’s been 15 years since I became a mom and today I have 4 kids. To make things even more surreal, we couldn’t leave our house to celebrate so we ended up having a virtual birthday party on zoom. I mean, who knew this would be our 2020?⁣
⁣
No matter what your challenge looks like, you are above your challenge, greater than the thing that weighs you down. Sometimes all you need is a change in perspective and the willingness to dig deep and discover what that challenge is trying to teach you. It requires true humility, surrender and lots of breaking through the pain. Lots. But you will get through it because you are YOU. ✨⁣
⁣
Happy birthday to my beautiful firstborn Elise! If you are new here you can read all about our special needs journey on the blog. 💛 ⁣

Too much Netflix and chill these days, my 3 year old just had his first zoom meeting and I’m googling “How to groom a dog.” I feel like I’m in the twilight zone these days. ⁣
⁣
What’s your favorite @netflix show? I’ve already watched You, Love Is Blind, Crash Landing On You and Itaewon Class. This is the most TV I’ve watched in years. Should I really be watching Tiger King? 🙈😂⁣
⁣
P.S. You can find a list of Best Netflix Shows for kids on the link in bio to help you get through another weekend.⁣

The days and nights are all blending together and I forgot what day it was today. Even as an introvert who has worked from home for years, this is different. This feels CRAZY at times and last night I got that hazy, stuck-in-an-alternate-universe feeling you get after being on a 10-hour flight with the kids. ⁣
⁣
So tonight I’m going to treat myself to a long bath and try to escape mentally and emotionally even for a short while. Sometimes the best escape is just letting your imagination wander to a new place and engaging in a fresh dialogue with someone more eloquent than your kids. 😆⁣
⁣
Click the link in bio for my list of self-quarantine essentials and 👉🏼 swipe to see my book recommendations from my personal library. I selected from different genres: a classic, Asian-American, a collection of short stories, self-development/psychology and spiritual. ⁣I hope you enjoy my selections and tell me which is your favorite!
How are you doing today? ⁣
