Happy Fall ☺️ 🕷🎃✨ We recently added s Happy Fall ☺️ 🕷🎃✨ We recently added some wallpaper & a better way to store costumes that I think give this room just the right amount of spooky with our annual play house decorations. I don’t usually decorate much outside other than the door and porch so this is always fun for the kids. Oh, and combing through the toys to pair down has begun, @playlearnthrivekids will be proud when it’s all done 😜 Follow for more daily parenting ❤️ #haloweencostume #halloweendecorations #photowall #gifted #babysfirsthalloween #halloween2022 #navigatingparenthood
How have you leaned into your baby’s interests t How have you leaned into your baby’s interests to foster life skills and instill joy in being capable? I recently shared a ball drop video where Wes was so excited because he saw how happy his actions made us (we all said “yay!”). Building that intrinsic joy and ability to want to work at accomplishing something is so beneficial. Not just for praise (though babies do love that) but sense of self ability and inclusivity. He CAN help me put big sis’ clothes in the dryer. ❤️ • • • • • #navigatingparenthood #montessoribaby #montessori #rieparenting #11monthsold #householdchores #loveverybaby #childdevelopment #attachmentparenting
Be honest. Did any of these surprise you? Have no Be honest. Did any of these surprise you? Have no idea it was a myth or no idea that people thought that? Tell me in the comments which myth you’re curious about or share one you’ve heard! It’s interesting how much we learn each day while navigating this thing called parenthood, right? . . . . . . . #momreels #breastfeeding #worldbreastfeedingmonth #breastfeedingawarenessmonth #postpartummyths #navigatingpostpartum #navigatingparenthood #thisispostpartum #postpartumeducation #lactationeducation #postpartumdoula #newmomlife
It’s schooltime- yay! But all the kids go to dif It’s schooltime- yay! But all the kids go to different schools and now I need to figure out mealtime for a hungry 10-MO, school kids, and a 3-YO after preschool before picking up the next kid from school a bit later… oh and feed myself so I can breastfeed and function). It’s a busy time! (AD) I’ve been trying out @yumblekids for the past 3 weeks as part of a 4-week challenge and it has made figuring out lunches so much easier! I can share a meal with the baby, bring one for my 3-YO after preschool to eat at the park before we pick up the 5-YO … the list goes on. How do you make the back-to-school season less hectic? Yumble gave me a coupon code that will allow you to try it out with me at 50% off! Visit the link in my bio and use code “navigatingparenthood50” at checkout to save!

Mom hack: Get Lovevery so you don’t have to worr Mom hack: Get Lovevery so you don’t have to worry about what to do next with your baby during play time (and big sis time helps too 😉). Placing an object inside something is a skill Wes has been working on in different ways through his @lovevery subscription for months (experimenting with how the felt balls, light balls and wooden balls drop differently in the object permanence box has been his fave) but during month 10 this new concept of all the things he can put in his little bag and take back out has been another level. Have you tried this with your baby? • • • Pssst if you haven’t tried Lovevery before and are wondering what it’s all about check out my Lovevery highlight or click the link in my bio to go to the Lovevery site via my affiliate link for more info. It’s truly THE best gift for anyone to give your kids aside from memory gifts (time spent doing activities together) which this subscription kind of creates more of too! . . . . .
