Are You Even a Mom Boss? Mom Boss? That’s a phrase that’s thrown around a lot on social media, it implies that have to be more than just an ordinary Mom. You have to have style, raise good humans, conduct hostile takeovers with your disruptive she-business, all while maintaining a picture-perfect home. Well, I have a bunch of letters after my last name and I can assure you being a Mom is all the bossing you need to do. Read my latest blog post for more of my thoughts and special thanks to my husband @djbtips for capturing these fancy shots today. #momgoals #momboss #momstyle #toddlermom #motherhoodexpectations #girlboss #doeverything
Motherhood is supporting your kid’s stick obsession and accepting that he’s boycotting pictures right now. #sunnyday #dayatthepark #boymom #toddlermom #charlestoncountyparks
I don’t always wear my hair down but when I do, I go big and STAY home. Hello from the foggy #Lowcountry (𝗍𝗁𝗂𝗌 𝗍𝗈𝗈𝗄 𝖺𝗅𝗅 𝖽𝖺𝗒) #momstyle #toddlermom #selfcare #hairandmakeup #stayathomestyle #rainydays #boymom
Motherhood is being completely silly just to make your kid laugh or distract him from his lack of cookies. Also there is no good lighting in the Lowcountry right now...but I do actually look like this 😬 #momstyle #gloomyday #toddlermom #cabinfever #boymom
If you saw my stories earlier then you know I asked if I should recreate that picture I took in this workout outfit one year ago (see stories). Well I did it and while I sometimes look at myself and I’m disappointed, the difference between the picture from a year ago and these today is about 15lbs. Still more work to do but as I go into another conception season I’m more focused on maximizing my heart health and not losing this progress. If it takes another 6 months and 20 more lbs lost before I get my next miracle that’s fine. If it happens before Spring that’s great too. I’m going to keep plugging away. #nofilter #fitmom #keepgoing #dontquit #transformationthursday
I mean I could post the picture where I’m looking half-way cute in my gym gear but that wouldn’t show the effort that it took to finish my first full run since my thyroid went rogue. A mile and a half, mostly uphill and I finished it! And did I mention, I didn’t die!! I’m pretty proud of myself. I mean there are no real words to verbalize how crappy I felt this fall and early winter. So this is a win for me. And speaking of health, this week on the blog to close out my Having the Best Year You Can Have Series - I’m going to talk about the decision to start trying for baby #2, how I feel about it, what I’m doing a little differently, and what I’m trying not to do. So stay tuned and let me know in the comments if there was anything you did differently the second time around. #ttcbaby2 #fitmom #slimmingforthesibling #cardioday #treadmillworkout #homeworkout #pandemicfitness #18monthspostpartum
