Cool Mom and Collected

Today, I’m sharing a life changing tool we’ve implemented into our household for a great night’s sleep. If you don’t know already, we have 4 of our 5 young children sharing a room since the beginning, and to say “that’s where the party’s at” is an understatement! Although we’ve trained them to stay in their room at night time and during the early morning hours, their loud singing, happy shouts, and sweet conversations often kept us up. However, all that changed, and you can read how HERE👇

I hope you’re enjoying my postpartum related articles after baby #5! I’m currently 3 months postpartum, and sharing things I did differently during this season! Safe to say, I wish I did these things after all my babies, but my hope is that these tips will help any newly postpartum mamas in their recovery journeys! So, share this post with an expectant mama, and let’s get into it!

Welcome back, friends! Did you hear the news?! Baby #5 has finally arrived! Today, I’m sharing my very own “to do list” (in no particular order of importance) executed once my labor started. Making this list helped me stay cool, calm, and collected…(See what I did there?)!🤭 I hope this helps any of you expectant mothers prepare for your labors as well! Enjoy :)

Now THIS is a course I can get behind of!!😍 If you are a parent, and don't know who Dr.Siggie - PhD - Parenting Expert is...then YOU'RE WELCOME!🥰😍 I know you will fall in love with her just as I did as she encourages mothers and fathers with non-judgemental, clear and concise advise to engaging with children. Her new course is about ALL things siblings, and as a mama of 5 sweet littles, it's something I'm thoroughly enjoying!🥰💗

As I get closer to my due date for baby #5, I find myself preparing more and more for my unmedicated labor at home. I recently created my birth music playlist! These worship songs have helped me in my previous unmedicated births to focus my mind on Adonai, the Giver of Life! Below you’ll find powerful worship songs that promote peace, hope, and faith to remind us of WHO is in control of our labors and births!

Welcome back, friends to a new series on my blog where I share ALL of the living books my four children (ages 2-6) are loving from the library! As a homeschool mom of four, (with one on the way), it's been my joy to surround my children with living books that open their minds up to creativity, beauty, and a wealth of learning. Any one of these books would be the perfect addition to your home library! We hope that you enjoy them as much as we have!

Today I'm sharing a review on the reading program, “Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons!” I used this program with my 4 year old (now 6 year old who is in first grade), and I plan to continue using it with my four younger children. It’s because of this program that my child started reading books before we even finished the 100 lessons! What a joy it’s been to enter our first year of homeschool with a life skill that has already been nurtured, and developed into a love for reading! I hope you enjoy!

From the moment I heard of a Mother's Basket, ( aka one consolidated place to keep all items that inspire the MOTHER ), I knew I had to make my own. This is a sacred basket of items I can reach for on early mornings, rainy days of leisure, restful Sabbaths, or lonely nights. It’s a place whe

I am just in LOVE with how the children's bedroom is turning out!🥲 (Quite the upgrade of space from our RV) AND we invested in this sweet triple bunkbed for our three oldest!!😍 But the REAL stars of the show are our !🛏🛏🛏

When we first started RV living, we invested in TWO tan for our toddler's bunk beds. It was an investment worth making because it created such a sleek, cohesive look in their tiny bedroom! (Not to mention it is super durable, functional, and helps youngsters easily make their bed with ease of a handy dandy zipper!)🙌 (see my stories!)

I'm pleased to say that even after leaving RV living, that was not the end of our loving Beddys! We recently bought a dusty pink Beddys for our daughter, and love how the combo turned out! (We call their beddys combo a jam sandwich)🤣 I'm so thankful that the same sleekness we desired in our RV can be attained in our new space! This room is one of my favorite spaces, and is a huge contributor to that.😍🥰

In today's video, I'm sharing all the products that made living in a 36ft RV, for 3 years as a family of 6, easier for us! These tried + true products were used during this time! We hope this can be a valuable resource for you! :) Enjoy!

**Thank you all for your help!!! I learned so much from you season pet owners lol😍**

Hey mamas!!!🙋‍♀️ I've got my mommy brain researching what the perfect first pet for a child would be! (I'm that mom that does a year of research in advance, haha!)🤗 We're not ready for a pet just yet, but I don't think you need to rush straight to a dog, or cat on that first pet purchase either!! What is YOUR ideal first pet for a child that:
-teaches responsibility💫
-can be handled by a child💫
-low maintenance 💫
-doesnt take up a lot of space💫
Leave your answers in the comments below! Photos of your pets welcome 🥰😍
