Tips & tools for Living healthy, busy mom life with 2 toddlers and loving life. I'm not perfect but its about progress and getting better everyday.
If you don't know what you're doing today and with your time? How will you get to where you want to be?
Do you get in your car and just drive with no destination in mind?
So why do you do this with your day, time, and life?
I have always had big dreams and no idea how I would get there. I assumed the 9-5(ish) and savings would get me there, eventually.
But I soon realized that not only would the 9-5 get me there it also didn't make sense with my priorities. Thanks to this global pandemic, I got a chance to pause, take a look at my priorities, and see what really was important to me. I got the chance to re-evaluate where I was headed and where I wanted to go. Then, I learned that those two didn't align.
Now, I have a clear picture of where I want to go and a path to follow. The road may have bumps, detours, unexpected construction, and alternate routes, but the destination won't change.
I recently found a new path to take me to my destination. I am so excited about this road and what will happen along the way.
I can now see my destination more clearly than before.
Do you have a destination & path?

Simple is key for dinner time. The 30 day challenge makes me eat clean & better. It can feel hard but there are soo many great easy meals.
Making 2 dinners while 2 toddler create chaos has become my routine.
Who knows what trouble they will get into, at some point there will be yelling, screaming, laughing & potentially crying from any of the 3 of us. 😂🥵😫😡😲😎
I do love to find them both going potty together and just talking. 🚽
In 20 moved mins I can throw this together, next I should double the recipe as we had no leftovers. Maybe some day my kids will eat this too?
Ground Turkey
Quinoa noodles
Tomatoes
Pesto
What food do you wish your kids would eat?

Hot Tip Tuesday:📢
Berries are a super food for your brain! They are delicious and great in smoothies. But did you know what they do for your brain?🧠
Plus frozen berries may be better because when frozen the antioxidants are more available to your body. So if not in season stock up on frozen ones or freeze your own when they are in season & reasonable!
Don't forget to save this tip and share with someone who needs a brain boost!🧠
What's your favorite berry?

Good morning!
How do you start your day?
I always drink water, then my glow/green shot then a tizzy (tea & fizz).
This has become a staple for me and makes feel good. I love knowing that the food & drinks I put in my body are helping me through the day. Plus after a day of birthday treats & drinks it felt even better this am.
What's your must have morning drink?
Just a lil cake decorating.
The kids picked the colors of course needed sprinkles!
For my 1st cake from scratch & double layer, I'm gonna pat myself on the back and then go back to eating! Lol

Sweet potato & Turkey dinner!
Wasn't to hard or take long. More importantly healthy, GF & DF.
With 2 toddlers, 2 jobs, making 2 meals every night & everything else finding a delicious, healthy meal that's quick is my jackpot!
What you having for dinner?
Having an appointment & pass for a vaccine feels like I've won the golden ticket for W***y Wonka!

This is my favorite daily practice.
Each day since Oct 2019 I have started my day with 5 things I'm grateful.
Through the crazy year, good days & bad, the blah days and awesome days this has helped keep me grounded.
It takes 5 mins and makes such a difference in my day.
Today I'm grateful for:
👩👦Getting to drop off, be at my son's school & pick him up
🌞The sunshine
🤗Helping people be healthier
👁My health & vision
👨👩👧👦Living near family & getting to see them regularly
What are you grateful for today?
