Kauai Moalepe Trail

December 15, 2014 · In: Travel, Uncategorized

P1010024-4P1010006-1 P1010015-2 P1010022-3 P1010043-9 P1010044-5 P1010063-6 P1010072-7This week we are transitioning Grant to his crib (and own room) and he has started sleeping through the night. I have to say this is one of the hardest things I have ever done and it is very emotional for me. I keep focusing on the benefits for him getting a good night’s rest and having his own space. I truly miss him and I even cry at night! HA! I wish so badly for him to be back in our room and I know that this is the only way he was going to be able to sleep through the night well. 

On another note…this trail was so awesome!!!! I was snapping photos like crazy on this trip. Hope your week is off to a great start!

    I can only imagine how tough transitioning your little one to his own room must be. The trail looks beautiful. I really need to start spending more time outside.

      You are so right. It totally is better for us in the long run. Now we have our bed and room back! It is kind of surreal. OK…time for another baby. HA!

    Aww, you are so sweet! I love taking naps with my babe but I also love that he doesn’t sleep with me at night. I even like when B doesn’t sleep with me. I’m selfish and like to hog the whole bed! HA!!

      Ha! That’s awesome! I am a bit codependent now! I was independent for so long and now I have like this pod life with my family. It was a good change in everyone’s best interest though. I am still getting used to it! Thank you!!

    What a beautiful trail but I imagine that in Kauai there’s not much scenery that isn’t amazing. It’s only natural that you miss having Grant with you at night but just think of how much more fun you can have with him during the days now that you’ll both be better rested 🙂

After I finished breastfeeding our fourth baby, th After I finished breastfeeding our fourth baby, the varicose vein on my thigh was becoming really prominent.

It looked so bad but wasn’t sure if it was just cosmetic thing or something I should get checked out for my health.

I was avoiding it and “waiting until I had time” to deal with it as a mom of 4.

I finally made time and l’m so glad I did.

This was the start of my health journey at 45.

This makes our weekdays so much less chaotic, and I don’t feel like a scullery maid-I feel like I have a personal chef!

I get to focus my time and energy on connecting with the kids or taking a moment to rest. 

Throw these together really quickly this weekend for a smooth week. 

The mini meat loafies are a quick snack, packable lunch item or dinner main.

The turkey taco meat is so quick and you can make so many different dishes with it. 

PS it’s been a staple food in my health journey.

I like to cook my veggies day-of or have some washed and prepped in containers.

Have you considered a “pattern interrupt” element Have you considered a “pattern interrupt” element to design your space and make it stand out?

A design element that just doesn’t make total sense but adds the zest to the room that just makes it?

But why is it so hard to figure out the exact thing that will make your space special?

You’re an emotional decorator! You’re someone who walks into a room and knows she loves it but can’t explain why.

I’m here to help!

Part II of Translating what we love about this space-Nancy Meyers edition!

This iconic kitchen from It’s Complicated, is so funny because Jane is in the works to finally renovate to get her DREAM KITCHEN and we would all love to have this one as it is right now!

Why? 

Notice that there are layers of detail from floor to ceiling and even ceiling!

If you want your home decor to feel cozy, there’s nothing like decorating every surface.

Keep it neutral if too much business overwhelms you.
When I spotted this window shelf in the movie, I thought it would be the perfect way to add some interest to our very boxy dining room-my pattern interrupt.

All the moms at the mommy and me meetup looked so All the moms at the mommy and me meetup looked so amazing. I wondered what their secret was.

When was I going to bounce back like that?

Everyone was being vulnerable so when it was my turn I said, “I still can’t fit into my old jeans.”

One of the moms looked at me and said, “I just bought new jeans.”

I was shocked! She looked amazing!

I thought that if I bought jeans for my current “larger size” as in “not my ideal size,” it would mean I was settling for my current state that I didn’t want.

Then it hit me.

When you see yourself as worthy and do things that make you feel great-like new clothes that fit, your mind does something you’re not even aware of.

when your brain says, “I look cute” then you’re just going to continue to look better on a subconscious level. 

Why?

Your self image improves and when it does, you do things in alignment with a good self image like eating better or moving more or learning how to do your hair at its best!
