On Thursday we filmed something that is so close to our hearts that we will share with everyone in the beginning of June. I hate to be annoying and leave out so many details but we aren’t allowed to share just yet.  It is such a special project that is close to our hearts and let me tell you we were EXHAUSTED after it, my goodness.  I am working on a few other fun campaigns that I am excited to share with you in the next few weeks as well so stay tuned for those! Our favourite place to go when we’ve had a busy week is my parents farm aka the farm. There is something so special about it, as soon as Lee and I pull in we feel we can instantly relax, we are so lucky to have such a special place only an hour away.  We went out there on Friday and came back yesterday because Lee is super busy with work. When we were packing up Dane made it quite clear he was not ready to come home so Gigi and Papa agreed to have him one more night… how are we at this age already!? We asked him repeatedly if he wanted to come home with us or stay and he without hesitation begged to stay. He is growing up sooo fast and speaking of growing up too fast, Dane got his first haircut! He almost made it to his third birthday before his first cut!  It was pretty uneventful because we just trimmed his bangs lol I couldn’t get rid of his baby curls just yet. His Auntie Marlo did it for him and he did so well! The smileson their faces say it all, what a special bonding experience for these two!

What I Cooked:

Like I mentioned, it was a busy week so I took advantage of a few meals I had frozen.  A few weeks ago I made this shepherd’s pie and doubled the filling then froze it so I would have it on hand for a quick meal another day.  Don’t you just love when you’re organized and do shit like this? Little pat on the back for moi! I pulled out the frozen filling and then topped it off with the instant potatoes that you buy at Costco. Listen, do we eat these all the time? No, but when in a pinch, they are great! I literally pulled out the filling in the am so it thawed through the day and then put it into a pan, took 3 minutes to make the potatoes and put it in the oven.  Homemade shepherd’s pie in less than 20 minutes. Try this hack and thank me later! I actually do this quite often, if you’re making the mess double the recipe and freeze for another day!

What I’m Loving:

Joe Fresh! I have said this before but I’m here to say it again! Joe Fresh is killing it this season. I have now placed TWO Joe Fresh orders and I am SO happy with everything I got. I can’t always say that… I go through phases with them. Sometimes I love their stuff and others I am just not into it. Here are a few things I ordered for myself and the kids and are loving!

What I Wore:

Sweater is from Shop Teach! I am wearing a size small!

Tank is Shop Teach and I am wearing size small! This tank is slightly oversized but more so I relaxed fit if that makes sense!

I think that’s all for now!

Sorry this one is a bit late- chat next week!

So, let’s get into it! This week we started sleep training Halo and let me tell you it is life changing… I have so much more energy, I am motivated, and I just feel more like myself. Halo is also a much happier baby. I will be sharing more on this once we are done the 10 day program but for now know that it is truly changing our lives for the better. Speaking of Halo… she is now in her Jolly Jumper!! Where the hell is time going my lord!? How is my baby big enough to be in the jumper! She is getting more fun by the day.. her giggles are just my favourite thing ever! Speaking of favourite things ever, I have been struggling with Halo’s dry skin since the day she was born and I have FINALLY found something that works! Cerave Baby Cream… this is not sponsored at all this is just the only thing that I have used on her that works! 

Because I am getting more sleep I feel like I am having an easier time tackling normal daily tasks again, like cooking dinner! Here’s a few things I made this week! The salmon was good but I think I would add a bit of honey to balance out the saltiness. The greek orzo dish was delicious and super easy-  love me a one pot meal!

I am SO loving getting back into the fashion of it all. That is why TMS was started in the first place and it feels good to get back at it. Two pregnancies later style sure feels hard for me and so I am happy to bring you along the journey of me finding my personal style outside of leggings and sweats again. Don’t worry, there will be plenty of that still, just a little less and when I do put them on I want to STYLE them not just wear them. 

Last week it was my birthday and Lee bought me this new purse and I AM LOVING IT! It is the perfect transition bag. I am still in the diaper bag phase but at this point I don’t feel like I need massive backpack everywhere I go now. This sling bag fits SO much but is still small enough it doesn’t look like you have 2 diapers, a onesie, a booger sucker, 1 million welches fruit snacks, and a container of wipes in it… ya know?! This one is definitely a bit of a splurge so I have linked a few others that are similar but are a bit more affordable. I will say however, the size, style, quality, and functionality of this bag is 10/10 so if you’re looking to treat yourself this is a great option!

Here are a few looks from this past week along with links for you to shop!

Have the best week, besties!

So here you have it a glimpse into the best day ever with my forever Valentine!

How do we feel about blogs? Are they making a comeback? Are we like this “old school” form of sharing content? If so, let me know and I will try to be more consistent with it!
