Gender Reveal Ideas Perfect for Siblings!

May 3, 2019 by amushro Leave a Comment

We’ve let the big secret out–We Are Having A Baby!! Now it’s time to reveal if Aaron and Lyla are going to have a baby brother or a baby sister. Since gender reveal parties were not a thing when I was pregnant with Aaron and Lyla, I wanted to share the news with the kids in a really fun way that they would always remember. However, a quick search on Pinterest will show you that gender reveal ideas can get really crazy and super expensive. Instead, I put together a few party ideas that were all about the older siblings. Check out my latest from TLC to see how we made a gender reveal party that was all about the siblings.

We’ve Got Some News…

March 22, 2019 by amushro Leave a Comment

So there is a little secret that we’ve been keeping under wraps  and we are all so excited to finally tell everyone. This July we will officially be a party of five!

We are all over the moon about adding a new babe to our bunch. While the first trimester was ROUGH–I’m feeling, well, tired is how I’m feeling now that I’m firmly in the second trimester.

What has been the most amazing part of finding out we are having a baby, is the reactions from Aaron and Lyla. They are so excited and every day talk to my belly and tell the baby all the things they will do together once the baby is born. I knew the kids would be excited, but their gentle and loving reactions have made all the morning sickness, aches, pains, and other grievances that come with pregnancy WORTH IT!.

We took a video of how my husband and I told the kids, and I’ll post it soon so that you can cry along with me.

I hope you will come along with me on this journey as I explore what it means to be a new mom all over again. So expect lots of new baby content but also my life hacks posts and DIYs for you and your entire family.

Now, I need a nap because I’m making a human and that is a lot of work.

Healthy Food Swaps

March 18, 2019 by amushro Leave a Comment

March is National Nutrition Month and I got the chance to chat all about simple food swaps that you can make every day for better health.

First we are going to start in your fridge!

I don’t know if you’ve heard of fairlife ultra-filtered milk but it’s great and we love it in our house. Not only does fairlife have 50% more protein and 50% less sugar than regular milk , but it is really delicious.

Also, it’s lactose free has no artificial growth hormones, and it naturally  contains  9 essential vitamins & minerals. So this simple swap really is a no-brainer.

It comes in all the popular varieties, from skim milk to whole, and my kids are crazy about the chocolate flavor. I even put it in my coffee to make it taste like a mocha. It’s my little morning pick-me-up.

Up next– your morning cereal! Swapping your regular cereal for Special K Protein Honey Almond Ancient Grains cereal is a great way to get a yummy and protein packed breakfast.  Each serving provides 15g of protein and that number climbs to 24g of protein per serving in a single bowl when served with ¾ cup of fairlife.

 

Alright, moving on to lunch and dinner. Making healthy meals that are quick and easy is no longer difficult thanks to Fresh Express. Their packaged salads are chef-inspired, high quality like you’d find at a restaurant but you can make them at home in minutes.  They come in so many delicious flavors and I feel like a salad made by someone else always tastes better. This is such an easy and healthy swap!

Finally, snacking throughout the day is super important. So having a healthy option like Wonderful Halos mandarins is a simple and easy swap. Not only are they sweet, seedless and easy to peel, they are packed with vitamin C and are a good source of fiber. Halos are the perfect on-the-go snack for your entire family.

Here’s a few links to the Healthy Swaps segments:
