Ultra Casual Mom Uniform + Things That Have Been Giving Me Life Lately

April 27, 2018

FacebookTwitterPinterestMixEmail

So we’re over halfway through our stay in San Jose. The time seemed to be going so slow initially and then now it seems to be flying by. I think that’s partly because I’ve finally fallen into a routine with Mason. I have an outlet to give myself “me time” and work time. The Bay Club has seriously been giving me life lately. It has allowed me to get my workouts in without having to work them in around Justin’s schedule and it has given Mason some independence. He’s grown so much it seems from being in daycare there even if it’s just for a couple hours a day, 2-3 days a week. As a SAHM/WAHM a few hours off is such a game changer. And, in my opinion, is making me a much better mom.

What else is giving me life these days, well for one my coconut milk lattes! While I’m making coffee at home, I still can’t help treating myself to a latte when I’m out running errands which are typically at Target or Safeway…and in case you’ve been living under a rock, both have Starbucks inside! Amazon Prime, but when does it not! It has been saving me extra trips to the store when I’ve forgotten something or Mason has just run out/about to run out of his favorite snacks. Food delivery in general, because with a toddler sometimes I just don’t feel like running out to go shopping.

Probably the most important thing that gives me life is Mason! His sweet kisses are the absolute best and he’s been giving them out pretty generously lately. I don’t know what I would do without his kisses and hugs. Oh and his smile and laugh definitely gives me life daily. This little stud has the sunniest disposition. Yes he can get pouty and does know how to throw a good tantrum or even better decide 3am is a good time to wake up and not let mama leave his room…or else more tears! So yeah, he has his ups and downs like anyone does but I just love him so much!!

So yeah, I’m sure there’s more things that give me life (like the IG filter that somehow masks my puffy eyes) but those above are currently the biggest ones.

What has been giving you life lately?!

Top: A New Day (available in black and pink too). Sweats: Splendid (black no longer available but all sizes in olive green are in stock on sale + an additional 30% off right now!). Sandals: Target, old (love these new ones from Steve Madden which were the original/Target is the dupe). Sunglasses: Circus by Sam Edelman (I found mine in store at Nordstrom – not showing up online but I did find them here and on sale!). Bag: Chanel (you can snag yourself an authentic used bag here to save ya some $$). Earrings: Nickel and Suede c/o.

Shop the look:

You've got a friend in me You've got a friend in m You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
When the road looks rough ahead
And you're miles and miles
From your nice warm bed
You just remember what your old pal said
Boy, you've got a friend in me
Yeah, you've got a friend in me

You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You got troubles, I've got 'em too
There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you
We stick together and see it through
'Cause you've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me

Some other folks might be
A little bit smarter than I am
Bigger and stronger too
Maybe
But none of them will ever love you
The way I do
It's me and you, boy

And as the years go by
Our friendship will never die
You're gonna see it's our destiny
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me

5 Top tips for doing Disneyland with young kids: 5 Top tips for doing Disneyland with young kids:

1. Buy lightning lane passes!! Sign up for Disney Genie and get your lightning lane passes. Yes it’s more money on top of your already expensive tickets BUT you can maximize your time at the parks! Especially with young kids where you’re going to need to take breaks during the day for nap time. This way you can do more each day without the stress or wait in long lines.

2. When you get to the ride do a rider swap. That way your child who is tall enough to ride gets to go twice. Once with each parent while the other stays back with the baby or children too small to ride.

3. As soon as they scan your lightning lane pass for the ride book your next one while you wait in line. (Even though the line and wait is significantly shorter you’ll still have time to see what you can go on next.)

4. Take advantage of the Disney PhotoPass photo opportunities around the park as a family since the pictures are included with the purchase of your daily lightning lane passes.

5. Remember to go with the flow and have fun making memories at the most magical place on earth!

It was a challenge to capture even a few milestone pictures as Cooper didn't want to stay still and I didn't want his birthday starting off with him crying while trying to snap a few pics...so this is the best we got before all the festivities started.
