Staying hydrated in this Louisiana heat is really

Staying hydrated in this Louisiana heat is really important. With the temperatures being in the 90s it’s been important for us to increase our water intake. #ZeroWaterPartner

When we received our @ZeroWater000 filtration system starter pack I was so excited. The starter pack comes with a filtration device and 2 additional filters. We love #ZeroWater because their filtration system is the only 5-stage system that removes 99.6% of all dissolved solids and gives us the purest tasting water. Also, their filter is the only pour through filter that is NSF certified to reduce lead, chromium, PFOA/PFOS and includes a free TDS meter to test your water. #LiveLifeAtZero

They offer a subscription service where you can receive replacement filters at a discount and have them shipped directly to you when you need them. New users can sign up for the starter pack that comes with a filtration device and 2 additional filters.

I can't believe DJ is gonna be 2 years old in 2 mo

I can't believe DJ is gonna be 2 years old in 2 months. He's such a busy body and can finally keep up with his big sister thanks to his comfortable and leak proof diapers from @RascalandFriends.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We've been using #RascalandFriends Premium diapers for 2 months now and I wish I discovered them way sooner. These diapers are so soft and gentle on DJ's sensitive skin and we haven't had any issues with leaks. My favorite thing about these diapers is that they are extremely absorbent and can hold up to 15x it's weight in liquid and the overnight leak protection lasts up to 12 hours.

#AD Stocking up sustainably has never been easier thanks to @pgdealsatfamilydollar

On my most recent trip to my local @familydollar I grabbed my go-to household and personal care items. Those items are @tidelaundry TIDE PODS, @bountypapertowels Bounty Essentials Select-a-Size, @charmin Charmin Essentials Mega Roll, and @always_brand ALWAYS Discreet Pads. #StockUpWithFD

I love that I can conveniently purchase these @proctergamble products at my local Family Dollar, they're good for my family, affordable, and good for my community. For example: Did you know that Charmin regrows two trees for every tree they use? Sustainability doesn’t have to be a sacrifice!

#ad I love making quick and delicious meals for my family. Using my new Ultimate Carbon Steel Wok & Stainless Steel Skillet from @food52’s product line @fivetwo I made this delicious Beef & Broccoli with Chicken Fried Rice in no time.

I love that the Carbon Steel Wok is lightweight, cooks food evenly and can be used for steaming, frying, boiling, sautéing and even braising. The Stainless Steel Skillet is the perfect pan for cooking large meals, it heats & cooks evenly, it’s not too heavy and has a lightweight tempered glass lid that is tight-fitting and doesn’t let heat or moisture escape.

Happy 4th Birthday Aubrey Ann!!

We had the best time last week on our first @Disney cruise. So many magical moments and fun memories were made. The Disney Fantasy boat was beautiful and so amazing. Can’t wait to share more pics and memories from last week. @disneycruiseline #disneyfantasy #disneycruise

There is nothing more important to me than my babi

There is nothing more important to me than my babies being happy and healthy. Part of keeping them healthy means making sure that they make it to their baby checkups.

While every checkup was important, the 6-month and 12-month checkup were especially important. At the 6-month checkup, their pediatrician assessed developmental milestones, including checking for signs of teeth and if they were ready to begin eating solids. At the 12-month checkup, their pediatrician assessed their growth and development as they transitioned into toddlerhood.

Aubrey and DJ’s health has always been our number 1 priority. Having a great relationship with their pediatrician who not only emphasizes the importance of each checkup but also the importance of them receiving their CDC-recommended vaccinations, makes me feel like I have one less thing to worry about regarding their health.

Visit the link in my bio for more information on what to expect at each checkup.

Aubrey Ann has grown up so much in the past year.

Aubrey Ann has grown up so much in the past year. It seems like just yesterday she was an infant and now she’s a toddler with a personality out of this world.

I remember when she was born, I was so scared when they put her in my arms. She was so tiny and fragile, and I had no idea of how to be a mom to this little human that I gave birth to. Newborns come with so much happiness but also big responsibilities. One of the most important tasks I had as a new mom was to keep my baby healthy. With the help of her pediatrician, I made sure that she received the CDC-recommended vaccinations that she needed – from her first checkup in the hospital shortly after she was born to the remainder of her pediatric checkups during the first two years of her life – keeping her on track and healthy.

Self care has been a priority for me lately and I

Self care has been a priority for me lately and I can honestly say that I’m enjoying and have no mom guilt about it. I’m always buying and doing something for my babies so last week I took myself to lunch for the first time ever and enjoyed being able to eat a meal and not feel rushed or have to share most of my food with my kids. I also took myself shopping at my favorite store @Torrid and fell in love with this gorgeous dress and had to have it. It’s so comfortable, flowy and it has pockets!! #FeelTheFit #TorridAmbassador #Sponsored

Ladies here’s your reminder that it’s ok to put yourself first and take time to do what makes your soul happy!

It’s hard to believe that my sweet baby boy isn’t an infant anymore. Time flew by so quickly. He has the sweetest personality that can light up a room, and I’m so thankful that he is a happy and healthy kid.

I remember when I took him to his 1-year pediatric appointment and was told by his pediatrician that we missed one of his vaccinations – ultimately due to the pandemic and miscommunication around the change in our appointment dates. At that moment, I panicked and started asking her so many questions: “Will this affect his health? Will this affect his development? Is he at risk for any diseases due to missing this vaccination?”

After answering my questions and reassuring me to not worry, we set up a plan to get DJ back on track with his CDC-recommended vaccinations.

You are not alone if your child has missed a checkup because of the pandemic. Make an appointment with your pediatrician for a checkup and discuss the best way to get back on track.

#ad Who doesn’t love a quick and easy family din

#ad Who doesn’t love a quick and easy family dinner idea?!? My favorite little kitchen helper and I made these delicious Air-Fried Chicken Parm Sandwiches using @RAGÚ® Chunky Tomato, Garlic & Onion Sauce—and y’all, they were SO good!

These yummy sandwiches took less than 30 minutes to cook and prep and cleanup was so easy. *Recipe Below* #RAGÚ #FamilyMeals #SimpleRecipes #QuickMeals

Started in the kitchen of an Italian mother, RAGÚ has been bringing the whole family to the table since 1937. And, just like their new ad campaign says, RAGÚ Sauce empowers everyone, regardless of gender or culinary skillset, to “Cook Like a Mother” 💪 with confidence and pride. For the latest recipes, tips and tricks follow @RAGÚ.

Ingredients:
6 frozen (fully-cooked) boneless, breaded chicken-breast fillets
1 jar RAGÚ® Chunky Tomato, Garlic & Onion Sauce
6 slices of mozzarella cheese
2 tbsp. grated parmesan cheese
6 brioche buns, split and toasted
Spinach leaves
Sliced hot pickled cherry peppers, drained

Instructions:
If you have a smaller air fryer, arrange three chicken patties in a single layer in air-fryer basket. Cook 10 -12 minutes until golden brown (then, cook the three remaining patties the same way). Top each patty with mozzarella cheese and microwave for 20-30 seconds to melt. Place filets on bottom buns, then top with a spoonful of RAGÚ Sauce, a sprinkle of grated parmesan, a handful of spinach leaves, a few cherry peppers and the top of the brioche bun.

#ad I love making easy and delicious, kid-friendly meals for my family. Using @RAGÚ® Old World Style® Traditional Sauce, we made these Bolognese-Stuffed Zucchini Boats and they were a hit!

From start to finish, it took an hour to prepare and cook. *Recipe Below* #RAGÚ #FamilyMeals #SimpleRecipes #QuickMeals
