Creating a tight sleep routine was a must with 👸 once hubby and I decided that sleep training wasn’t right for us. I've recently made some adjustments to baby 🐬’s sleep routine now that he’s almost 18 months old. I’ve upgraded his bedtime story to a book that’s a little bit longer and I’ve introduced essential oils. Your child’s sleep routine doesn’t need to be groundbreaking! It’s all about consistency & repetition... getting your little one’s senses to engage in the same pattern each night triggers their understanding— “it is time to go to sleep.”
We start with a warm shower or bath and follow up with a book. I’ll mix 1 drop of @YoungLiving’s Gentle Baby Essential Oil blend with a good amount of almond oil and use the mixture to give him a 3 to 5 minute massage, focusing mostly on his tummy and feet. The familiar scent ques 🐬— “Must be time for bed.” I also love making a DIY sleep spray by combining a few drops of @YoungLiving’s lavender essential oil with some distilled water and misting the crib, pack, and play, or baby stroller. Lavender fills the room with a calming aroma that's perfect for baby to fall asleep to.
Essential Oils are very powerful, that's why quality matters. @youngliving’s Seed To Seal commitment means we’re getting a pure quality product that has been created with conscientious sourcing, science, and standards. Remember to always dilute your essential oils with a carrier oil, never directly apply to the baby’s skin. #ad

I feel like the minute you’re a parent you hear

I feel like the minute you’re a parent you hear about terrible twos and how things get worse when they turn three. How come no one tells you that at five years old your baby will turn into a master negotiator who swears they are grown AF and will challenge your every word 😳
Year five has been my toughest year as a mother, for some obvious and some not so obvious reasons. I’m grateful for the patience I’ve learned and for the forgiveness she extends to me when I haven’t been so patient.
And even though I’m exhausted by the resistance and the passionate debates over screentime & bedtime... I wouldn’t have it any other way because I know one day she’s going to use that tough-as-nails personality to do great things. I know she’s never going to take ish from anybody, I know she’s always going to stand up for herself and other people, and I know at the end of the day she’s always going to crawl into bed with mama and whisper “I love you, mama. You’re my best friend.”
Thank you for being you 👸, and for being my best friend till the end. 💕 #maedmama

Hubby has been so excited to show his boy around his movie set all week and
