POV: your friends are in town so you play hooky and go to @disneyland.

Our family room got a spring refresh! I finally decided to give up the white couch fantasy to this Gabriel Chaise sectional and Daybed from @Sixpennyhome.
The constant cleaning of the white couches with kids & dogs was stressing me out and I was ready for a change.
This color is called Nectarine Dream and the perfect neutral that won’t show every stain. The cotton linen fabric holds up nicely too! #gifted

AD 📲Let’s talk about social media & teens. I don’t think social media is all bad, it depends on how we use it. Social media is now a daily part of our lives and our teens +13 are using them to connect with their friends. It’s also a powerful tool for building community and finding like-minded peers.⁣
⁣
@meta and @instagram provide safety tools for parents and teens to make their online experience more positive. I love that @instagram is focused on teens’ experience & safety rather than simply increasing time spent online.⁣
⁣
1) Supervision tools with Instagram allows parents & guardians to monitor and manage their teen’s time on Instagram, see their following and follower list and receive insights their teens choose to share.⁣
⁣
2) Quiet Mode allows adults and teens set healthy boundaries on Instagram by muting notification and put app in dark mode⁣
⁣
3) Take a break- teens can turn on break reminders featuring expert-backed tips on how to take a moment away from social media⁣
⁣
There are so many more safety tools available on Instagram and Meta. Go to the link in bio to learn more!⁣

Back to reality after my first encounter with @agustd and the #armybomb
#bts #armybomb #agustD #backtoreality

Mommy is back from an epic weekend with @agustd x @sushitrash! 🙋🏻‍♀️ Yes you can raise 4 healthy & happy kids AND enjoy your life too. ⁣
⁣
I needed two full days to recover but I don’t regret a thing. Sometimes the universe aligns and gives you experiences you don’t even ask for. It’s like it already knows what your deepest heart desires. ⁣
⁣
Even if you’re not at THIS PART of motherhood today, motherhood is consisted of different chapters. One day you’re in the newborn fog that never seems to end, then next you are here singing your heart out. ⁣
⁣
It’s one story, just different chapters. Where would you go next?🫶🏼⁣
