Life is Magical

At times, it simply takes a different perspective in order to see what is always there.

Hang it somewhere the whole family will see every day, and make goals to complete one or two activities each week.

@biglifejournal has an AMAZING printout that worked perfectly last year, but Iโ€™m so excited to create our own this summer!

It will include fishing, paddle boating, making a bird house from scratch, backyard obstacle courses, and more.

A few of my favorite prompts for couples sessions! A few of my favorite prompts for couples sessions!

โœจ Go in for a kiss, but stop! Donโ€™t kiss, donโ€™t kissโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ. okay NOW you can kiss. (This brings the best giggles.)

โœจ Put the couple in position, and then ask one person to talk in an accent. ๐Ÿ˜

โœจ Have them embrace, but tell them to pretend itโ€™s their last night together. This oneโ€™s great for military couples that deploy. 

โœจ Breathe each other in. It sounds like youโ€™d have no idea what to do, but each couple really responds soo beautifully when theyโ€™re all warmed up and cuddling.

And a fan favorite: 

โœจ Whisper something dirty in his/her ear. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

From getting pregnant to labor and delivery, hereโ€™s a list of my top app recommendations (because apps seriously make EVERYTHING in life simpler I swear ๐Ÿคฃ):
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
ยป ๐šƒ๐š‘๐šŽ ๐™ฑ๐šž๐š–๐š™ ๐™ฟ๐š›๐šŽ๐š๐š—๐šŠ๐š—๐šŒ๐šข ๐šƒ๐š›๐šŠ๐šŒ๐š”๐šŽ๐š› - this oneโ€™s my favorite of so many trackers. It shows week by week imaging of not only baby growing, but whatโ€™s happening inside your body as well! Itโ€™s also filled with articles and what to expect along the way.
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
ยป ๐™ฑ๐šŠ๐š‹๐šข๐š•๐š’๐šœ๐š ๐™ฑ๐šŠ๐š‹๐šข ๐š๐šŽ๐š๐š’๐šœ๐š๐š›๐šข - an online registry that allows you to literally link ANYTHING from any site online!
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
ยป ๐™ต๐š›๐šŽ๐šข๐šŠ ๐š‚๐šž๐š›๐š๐šŽ ๐šƒ๐š’๐š–๐šŽ๐š› - time your contractions while listening to affirmations and relaxing meditation sounds. The app will even coach you through each surge with breathing techniques during labor. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
ยป ๐™ฑ๐šŠ๐š‹๐šข2๐™ฑ๐š˜๐š๐šข ๐™ฟ๐š›๐šŽ๐š๐š—๐šŠ๐š—๐šŒ๐šข ๐š†๐šŽ๐š•๐š•๐š—๐šŽ๐šœ๐šœ - track your diet, workouts, weight, etc with the option to purchase a full plan that includes meals, daily yoga, exercise, and meditation programs. This oneโ€™s so good if youโ€™re paying!
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
ยป ๐™ต๐š•๐š˜ ๐™ฟ๐šŽ๐š›๐š’๐š˜๐š ๐šƒ๐š›๐šŠ๐šŒ๐š”๐šŽ๐š› ๐šŠ๐š—๐š ๐™ฒ๐šŠ๐š•๐šŽ๐š—๐š๐šŠ๐š› - how I tracked my period and ovulation. Along with getting the Clearblue smiley face ovulation test which I SWEAR by.
