Post workout stuff 🙌💪 This month I challenged myself to run/walk 3 miles on the treadmill 5 days a week. I’m rewarding myself with a new tattoo at the end of the month if I stick with it 😁😁 So far, so good ✅

What I got my 6 Year Old Twin Boys for Christmas is now up on YouTube!🎄🎁 Link in my bio ☝️Swipe to see Jaxon taking over the camera once I was done 🤦‍♀️😬🤣❤️ I wanted to be super intentional this year and get them things I knew they would play with and not simply discard in the closet to collect dust and then donate or pitch in 2020 🤷‍♀️It was hard to search through all the plastic junk and find things that they would really value but....shopping is finally done, wrapping is done and we are ready for the big day!!! Anyone else trying to simplify and be more intentional this year? 🤔🙌🎄#christmastime #whatigotmykidsforchristmas #twinboys #christmasshopping #intentionalchristmas #simplify #oneweekuntilchristmas #december #youtubenewbie #momlife #newvideo #newchristmasvideo #intentionalliving #hotmessmama #hotmesslife #sahm #wahm #blessedwithahotmess

Happy Tuesday Everyone! I was gonna post something inspirational but decided on this instead, because this is how I really do life 😁 and it drives my husband crazy 🤣🤣 October 1st! How the heck did that happen?! This is my favorite month of the entire year because I love this fall-ish, ghosty, ghouly kinda season 🎃💀👻 I’m also that mom who pins 8367 costumes to make for my kids and end up running around two days before, batshit crazy, knowing damn well we’re gonna settle on a store bought one instead. Like last year. And every year before that 😑🤷‍♀️🤣
Anyone have costumes already in progress? Or at least mentally prepping for the shitstorm to ensue as we breeze through October? 🤪😬😑😭 #runningonE #notcompletelyempty #fillthetank #hotmessmama #sahm #thiscrazylife #octoberfirst #ilovethisseason #ghosties #ghoulies #halloweencountdown #hotmesslife #blessedwithahotmess #notacraftymom #pinteresthell #halloweencostumes #halloweenshitstorm

I have two days.
Two.
Until my fiesty, sweet red-heads (who were just babies yesterday) start Kindergarten. And I'm not ready.
For the last couple months I've been in denial, thinking we had plenty of time, plenty of summer. And then, like most things, time flew by and here we are.
For the last 5 years, I've been that mom who was gonna be doing cartwheels in the front yard when the bus left on the first day of school. I was gonna have a celebratory drink in honor of "making it" this far. I was gonna be free.
Now I'm just sitting here all teary eyed, wondering if I wished it all away too fast. They are SO excited and not one bit sad like their mama which is such a blessing because it would be extra hard to send them off knowing they weren't 100% ready.
I'm so glad that they make friends wherever they go and they are always eager to learn and have new experiences. I feel like we've prepared them for this for the last 5 years and they ....but somewhere along the way, I forgot to prepare myself.
I know this is going to open up a whole new chapter for all of us and I'm more than ready to take on new challenges and start something new. I'm so ready to learn and create and build something that will make a better future for all of us. I'm excited for the opportunities and experiences this new life holds.....but I still feel like a piece of my heart is gonna be walking into that classroom on Thursday and I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around it.
I know it's gonna be all good once the first couple days are behind us.....right?? That's my rant and pity party for the day. Mama's, if you feel what I'm saying, comment below and we can sob together 🙂 #sahm #sahmlife #twinmama #offtokindergarten #5yearoldtwins #redheads #newchapters #wahmlife #wheredidthetimego #timegoessofast #littlelohs #growingup #bigboys #lifemovesfast #blessedwithahotmess #readyforthenextlevel #imnotready #mymamaheartisbreaking #happytears #lettinggo #offtoschool

When your kid wants to film a YouTube video and the dog has the audacity to poop in the background 🤦‍♀️💩😳🐶🤣 Side note: This kid wanted to start a YouTube Channel yesterday just for the sake of fun. He didn’t stress about it. He didn’t overthink it. He didn’t worry about it being perfect. He just started. I’m gonna be taking lessons from this one 🤔🙂🥰 Here’s to living every day with the heart and confidence of a 5 year old 🙌🙌 #smartkid #futureyoutuber #5yearoldboys #livinghisbestlife #proudmama #sahm #wahm #confidence #buildingconfidence #kidsteachus #learningfrommychildren #juststart #goals #reallife #myheart #quitprocrastinating #justgodoit #starttoday #quitholdingback #crushyourfears #blessedwithahotmess
