Just a shout out to all my #mamas out there, y’all are the real MVP’s 🙌🏽 It’s crazy that we easily forget all the things we get done every single day when routine slips away on us. Me yesterday “this is all I’ve done” cleaning, cooking, looking after two sick babies, trying to be present for my boys, spending time with my husband, constantly on and off my phone working yet I didn’t think I did anything 🤨 A quick little reminder from you beautiful babes to not be so hard on myself was all I needed ❤️ And today I’m not going to worry about anything I’m just going to be still with my babes and also try not to go crazy with all these 💩 nappies 😭🤣 Peep my lashes from @ashleyallen_eyelashextensions and nails from @petite_nails_nz though they are literally giving life because ya girl ain’t getting dressed today 🤣 I swear its little things like this that keep me sane on the hard days✨ #mumlife #bekind #treatyoself
It’s true what they say, everything does change when you become a Mama. You gain endless amounts of patience, your love tank overflows every single day and when you have moments where you think you can’t take anymore, you dig deep and you carry on. I couldn’t say I would’ve done half the things I have for anything or anyone else and I definitely couldn’t say I would be the Woman I am today if I wasn’t your Mama ❤️
Tonight I had my first ever reading with @littlerivernz and I honestly didn’t know what to expect but she was incredible and I am so grateful. I was nervous and excited because I am such an intuitive and spiritual person that I was nervous of what would come through for me. Of course my Dad was there waiting for me with open arms ready to just tell me so many things! Fuck it filled my heart to hear of all the things he’s been watching and seeing us doing but it also broke it! I’ve always felt anger towards him because I felt like he just left us when we needed him the most but really he’s always been here. He’s been watching, guiding and protecting my every move. So many things were confirmed to me tonight and I no longer have that heavy sinking feeling. It’s been 11 years since my Dad passed on and I’ve always felt like I haven’t been ready to talk about it and him because then it truly feels like he’s gone. But tonight I feel free, I feel like he’s here, shinning down on me and I feel ready to open up and talk. The heart break never goes away it just gets easier to live with, I love you Dad and I miss you every single day ❤️
When Bae doesn’t want to hold hands but you REALLY want to 🤣 @blessedindoublesdad
My bestie had a BABY 😍😭 When I heard the news I couldn’t help but shed a little tear because my girl joined the #momclub and because sweet little Arie had been born into the world ❤️ (Henry and Theo have names him their God Brother 😂) My bestie is not only just a best friend, she’s been my Bridesmaid and the God Mother to our darlings Henry and Theo 😍 Little Arie is so lucky because he has the best Mum and Dad ever, he is so loved 😊 Surrounding yourself with incredible people who allow you to grow and flourish through life is what friendship is all about ❤️ IM ALSO VEDDDDDI CLUCKY RN 😂😂😂 I LOVE NEWBORNS 👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽
Every single thing about my girl is perfect and I tell her this every single day ❤️ I want her to be whoever she wants to be, I want her to know she can do anything she sets her mind to and most of all I want her to know how worthy she is of everything in this world 💖 What do you tell your babies? 😍Baby girl in fresh @ten.little.indians #raisingqueens #mamasgirl #blessed
Can our summer days be filled with the beach, cuddles and Mama feeling confident enough in herself to wear a bikini.... AMEN 💖 Honestly it’s still a fear if mine 🙃 I get all funny like I hope they see I have four kids and that’s why my body looks like this 😅 WTF AM I THINKING! No one cares FR 🤣 It’s all in my head and I know this because I never look at Women on the beach and think “uh what are they doing wearing that!” I literally think YASSSS GIRL GEDDIT! 🙌🏽 But on the real Mama’s don’t be afraid to rock that swimsuit because you truly are magnificent 🔥 Tonight I read my kids KIWICORN by @illustratedkat and at the end I asked them what they thought of me and they answered Smart, Happy and a Super Hero 😭 I literally cried, I’m still all teary 😩 So tonight although I’m scared of so many things, I go to sleep knowing that I am THEIR Superhero and that in their beautiful eyes Mama can do ANYTHING! 💥 And you can too! 🙊 Including wearing the shit out of ya swimsuit and enjoying this summer with your babies👙 🥂 #loveyall #beachdays #mombod #blessed #blessedindoubles
When Mami heads out the door she does it for real 🙊 Thank you for yet another incredible night @benefitnz Brows really are LIFE! 💖🙌🏽Wearing @curva_styling 😉
Spent almost 2 hours packing the car and getting all the kids ready for the beach, half an hour unpacking the car and the kids and then an hour at the beach running after my children in 17,000 different directions, it was amazing ☺️ Cauuute lil purse to hide all the treats in from @shop.serendipity.ave Sunnies are @quayaustralia from @fix.fashionnz How are your school holidays going? 🤪 GIMME ALL DA WINE 🥂#havekidstheysaid #itwillbefuntheysaid #mybuttonswerepoppinlikecrazy
Almost 2 years ago we decided to give up meat completely and since then it’s been an incredible journey and one that we are very proud of 😍 There have been so many different phases like going Fully #plantbased for almost 4 months then going to be #vegetarian then going to be #pescatarian and back and fourth 😅 There are so many different reasons as to why we chose to stop eating meat, @blessedindoublesdad honestly never really liked the taste so for him it was easy! Yep a Samoan who doesn’t eat mean GEDDIT BOO 🙏🏽 We had the awakening of why are we any better than animals? Like the are living breathing creatures, they give birth to babies and we take them and kill them and eat them and OMFG I couldn’t imagine my babies being taken from me so it was simple choice I cut it out that day and never looked back ❤️🐮 🐷 🐶❤️ We also did so much research into the impact it was having on our environment global and it’s actually F’D! 😭 We arent judgey AF like some people and we honestly don’t care about what anyone else eats, we care about what we eat, we care about the changes we have made and are continuing to make and we people give their opinions on it CYA we don’t curr 🤣 We aren’t perfect we don’t claim to be but we know that we have come a long way and we own that 🙌🏽 Henry and Theo never liked meat to start with and barely ate it before they became strictly Vegetarian so it was a simple transition they have never asked for meat and if we ask them why they don’t eat it they say “No Mummy and Daddy I love animals” 😭 Harlow and Noah have never eaten meat in their lives and were fully plant based up until a couple of months ago but we decided that it’s easier if the kids are Vego as it suits our lifestyle more ☺️ I’m not going to lie, it’s been hard for me as I was a massive meat eater and loved the taste but I do it for the animals. I also do it in hope that my children will live in a beautiful world in the years to come 🌎 If you have ever thought about consuming less meat or cutting it out all together then I highly recommend watching @forksoverknives @cowspiracy @wthfilm They changed our lives ❤️ Any questions for either of us pop them down below 😊
My face when Hubby walked in the door today could pop a bottle of wine 🤣 Not even joking 😝 Let me run you through my day oh and I’ve put my back out I can barely bend down 😂 4-5am Theo gets in my bed 6am Theo stays up 7am We all get up 7.12 Henry and Theo fight all morning then Henry decides to throw a tantrum 9.15 Kids are all showered, teeth and hair brushed, fed and in the car ready to leave. Henry decides a two hour tantrum is enough and he’s done with it 9.40 Henry and Theo go to school 9.45 We get to the gym so I can sit on the bike till 10.30 because my back is so sore I can’t do anything else 10.15 Noah does the biggest stink eat shit ever and you all know I HATE POO! 10.30 We leave the gym and go to @jump_nz for the 11am session so I can get some extra cardio in without putting pressure on my back 11.15 We leave because Harlow is having a Meltdown. We head to a Cafe because it’s a beautiful day and we have an amazing lunch and head home. 1pm Noah’s fast asleep. Harlow decides she wants to skip her nap. 2.45pm After a big poo and a tantrum and Harlow nearly flying head first into the concrete she goes down for a nap but only after crying for another 30minutes. I shower do my hair and make up and put on my new @libertyemma_ Tee from @shineon.co.nz To make myself feel good! And it totally did! 3.55 Noah wakes up. I pick up the boys 4.15 Henry has another major meltdown because there’s icing sugar on the popcorn. I didn’t make the pizza right and there’s no sauce for his chips. All the kids are up fighting and crying and Then Daddy arrives home! 😭😍🙌🏽😩 F’N CYAAAAAAA and it’s only day 1 and there was only two of them 6 and a half hours! Lol! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I did however do somethings to make life easier! House was tidy, clothes were ready for the day, bottles were all ready for nap and bedtime, pjs were out, dinner was in the crockpot and washing was done before we left and when we got home! 🙌🏽😉 I still made time to do a couple of things for myself even though it was not one of the best days 💖 Moral of the story being a Mum is Fucking hard and you’re all SAINTS 🙏🏽 Mums advice for 3 year old tantrums and meltdowns I’m losing big time here 😩
