Favorite Things: Vol. XII

Favorite Things· Life

Why hello there!

Trying to prove to myself this week that I still know how to blog 🙂

Anyone starting to feel the change in the weather that summer is coming to a close? I was walking into work this week and it was actually chilly, and I might have had a minor freak out. I feel like summer just started! I’m not ready for it to end!

I figured I would share a few things that I’ve been loving lately with y’all. Be sure to share any new things in your life that you’re loving as well!

1. Passion by OPI (SNS)

Some of y’all probably already know that I am very dedicated to only using SNS on my fingernails and get them done a little less than once a month. It’s the only thing that stays on my nails! Gels peel off within a few days because of all of the hand sanitizer I use 🙁

I most recently got this color and I just really loved it! It felt neutral enough for work but still  fun and feminine and summery.

2. Marc Jacobs O!Mega Eye Shadow

Y’all. This stuff is incredible. It’s a buttery texture and literally stays ALL. DAY.

I got the shade “The Big O!” which is a matte brown color. Also it’s a huge container so I feel like I will literally never run out of this stuff!

Above is a low-quality selfie of me wearing it along with the Marc Jacobs shimmer eyeliner.

3. NEW GLASSES Y’ALL

I finally bought myself a new pair of glasses y’all. When I work, I work over 12 hours and often times my contacts are crazy dry. So this was pretty necessary.

I had heard really good things about Warby Parker and I’m honestly in love. Considering buying another pair tbh.

These are in the style Laurel in the color Oak Barrel.

Lastly, what would a Favorite Things be without my most recent letterboard quote?

Clearly G and I are all about the motivational quotes in our home 😉

Happy friday, y’all!

I use it as an opportunity to teach him about taking care of others in our community in big and little ways. This is everything we got this month! #blessingbox #foodpantry #toddlermom
🍩 2-INGREDIENT DOUGHNUTS 🍩 All you need is a can o 🍩 2-INGREDIENT DOUGHNUTS 🍩
All you need is a can of biscuit dough and oil to make the favorite breakfast of my childhood!
Once you pop open your can of biscuit dough and separate the individual biscuits, you can cut a hole in the center and GENTLY add them to oil heated to 350-375 degrees. CAREFULLY flip over once brown on one side and once both sides are perfectly golden, transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain excess oil. 
Of course you can’t go without toppings! Our favorites are cinnamon sugar, powdered, and strawberry glazed, but you could make chocolate frosting, vanilla frosting, or even jelly filled! The possibilities are endless when the doughnuts are this easy to make 😊

Did a really simple makeover to a sad, gray bathro Did a really simple makeover to a sad, gray bathroom to make it a little more fun and colorful for my toddler! So happy with how it turned out, and it ended up being such an inexpensive facelift! Inexpensive flexible moulding for the mirror, paint, an IKEA shower curtain, and some Etsy wall art made all the difference! #toddlermom #whimsy #roommakeover #whimsicalhome #colorfulhome
Letting go of my own aesthetic to make my toddler’ Letting go of my own aesthetic to make my toddler’s bathroom more colorful and fun. This was a super simple makeover and was very inexpensive, just to make getting ready in here a little more enjoyable. Let kid spaces look like actual kid’s play there!!!! #toddlermom #whimsy #whimsicalhome
Wanted to make my toddler’s bathroom a little more Wanted to make my toddler’s bathroom a little more colorful and fun without painting the walls a crazy color and making it feel even darker and more cave like 🫥🫥🫥 
Raising the shower curtain rod and sewing 2 inexpensive ikea shower curtains together definitely brought some color and funkiness into the space. And changing out the light fixture and framing off the builder grade mirror were such inexpensive upgrades that made a big difference! 
Also so happy with the fun wall art and affirmations to make getting ready in here a bit more fun! It’s a kid’s bathroom! Let it be colorful 🥰 #toddlermom #whimsy #kidsbathroom

When I became a mom, I was unprepared for the fier When I became a mom, I was unprepared for the fierce love and protectiveness I was overcome with. It was (and still is) terrifying having my heart exist outside of my body and trusting it to the world. 
Motherhood is the greatest gift and hardest job I’ve ever had. Being both a ‘forever mom’ and a foster mom has formed me into a stronger, more passionate, more empathetic, and creative version of myself. My life and work before kids felt important and meaningful, but raising kind, caring kids to impact their future communities and world feels like my most important purpose yet ❤️
