The weather is cooler, leaves are changing, and Halloween is over, which means it’s officially The Holiday Season! [Cue Christmas music.] When I think of the holidays, I think of family and friend get-togethers, eating good food, and GIVING. After all, isn’t that what the season is intended to be about?
You may already know our 6 Mommy Makeup Hacks, but if you’re anything like me, you are totally obsessed with all beauty products. I can’t tell you the amount of products that I’ve tried in my lifetime so far…
Have you ever thought to yourself, “I never thought my husband and I would get here.”(Especially within the first couple years of marriage?) To be completely honest, I knew adding a bundle of joy to our family would come with added stress, pressure, and sleepless nights, but I didn’t expect Josh and I to bicker as much as we did within those first couple of months.
When you find out you’re pregnant, exercising may not be the first thing that races through your mind. No pun intended. This is especially true during the first trimester because it seems like sleeping 24/7 wouldn’t even be enough. It can be very difficult to find the energy during pregnancy to get up and workout, but for me (and so many others), it was SO worth it.
Did you know it has been estimated that the average human being has around 50,000 thoughts per day? (That’s insane!)
You may not have realized the scale of that number, but have you ever considered the kinds of thoughts you allow into your mind? How many of the 50,000 are positive? How many are negative?
It can be difficult to have complete peace and not worry while you are pregnant. I found myself constantly worrying about everything relating to my unborn child. I would wonder if she was okay in there. Was she getting all that she needed? Was she moving around enough?, etc. I realized how important it was to fully turn my worry and anxiety over to God and allow myself to completely TRUST Him.
