Honestly I can’t believe a band tee didn’t mak Honestly I can’t believe a band tee didn’t make it into this mix. 🎶🤘🏻 But there’s a @drpepper t-shirt so that’s even better! I’ve been having so much fun lately remixing things I’ve had for years along with a few new pieces! 

Thrifting and finding a super good clearance deal = my favorite! I’m not really sure what my style is these days.. but I’m having fun playing around with it and feeling a little more like ME in what I’m wearing. Warped Tour heart, coffee shop soul vibes? ✨😆

I think sometime between becoming a mom, working, I think sometime between becoming a mom, working, keeping up with a house, and trying to take care of everyone else… I forgot to ask myself what I actually like.

So lately I’ve been paying attention.

The clothes I want to wear.

The hobbies I want to try.

The spaces I want to create.

The things that make me feel like myself.

Maybe this is exactly what your late 30s are for. Not becoming someone new.. but remembering who you are.✨

My littlest boys are 4️⃣!! Their only birthday My littlest boys are 4️⃣!! Their only birthday demand was that we get them a Sonic the hedgehog cake! 😆 

I still just sit and stare at them in disbelief sometimes.. my twin babies.. my last babies.. and somehow they’ve been here for 4 whole years. If you’re a twin mom, you know that the time passes different. The early stages are a blur in a way I don’t even know how to explain. It makes it all a bit more bittersweet.

I love you Bennett & Everett! 💙💙

Universal was a blast. I hadn’t been since I was Universal was a blast. I hadn’t been since I was a teenager and I only vaguely remembered a ride or two! There was so much to do for the littlest brothers and aside from being HOT, it was perfect. 

Everett was big mad at us for taking him on the SpiderMan ride and did not trust our judgement the rest of the time. 🤣 He LOVED the 1 Fish 2 Fish ride and wanted to ride that all day. 

Bennett on the other hand was all about the thrills and the Trollercoaster was his favorite. He said it was “Torrifying” but he made us all ride it with him multiple times.

I rode Velocicoaster with Nate, Landon, and Maile. And while I would do it again - for a moment I did think I might die. I only did that once. 🤣 Nate and Landon rode it multiple times. Hagrid’s was more my speed and Cohen agrees with me! 

I am a Disney girl at heart! But Disney doesn’t have a *real life* baby dinosaur that you can pet sooo there’s some competition. 😆

How To Take A Proactive Approach To Your Wellness

We often take feeling well and healthy for granted, but because health and wellness can decline gradually, it’s easy to miss the signs when things start to slip. For many people, it takes a sudden health scare or diagnosis to make them realize how much their well-being has been affected. The problem is, by the time it reaches that point, the underlying issues are usually well-developed. That’s why taking a proactive approach to your health is so important—you can often avoid getting to that stage altogether.

It is vital to keep a close eye on your children’s health. Looking into The Dwoskin Family Foundation and how they help children’s health will ensure you know where to go if you do need extra support should any ailment arise.

Focusing on improving your health before things go wrong can make a huge difference in how you feel. You can prevent a lot of issues from developing, and even ease symptoms of any existing conditions. It sounds great in theory, but how do you actually manage your health proactively in real life? Here are some ideas to help you start your wellness journey.

Pay Attention

The best way to start improving your health is by really tuning in to how your body and mind are feeling. When you take the time to check in with yourself throughout your day, you might notice things you’ve been ignoring—like those constant aches and pains or unhealthy habits you didn’t realize were a problem. It can be really helpful to jot down how you’re feeling as you go, making it easier to spot patterns and refer back to them later. This simple step can give you a lot of insight into what areas need the most attention.

Decide What You Want To Change

Taking charge of your health will always mean making some changes, and that can feel overwhelming or even a little scary. But it’s those very changes that will have the biggest impact on how you feel. Start by reflecting on what you’ve noticed when you really tuned into your wellness, and think about which areas are affecting you the most. This is a great way to set meaningful health goals. From there, you can prioritize them, so you know exactly where to begin. Consider changes that will affect more than your own body for a greater impact, such as switching to CleanChoice Energy to benefit you, your family, and the environment through cleaner energy choices. Take a look for some inspiration online too, like Kevin Morgan of Pittsford NY, as a great one for motivating you on workouts and incorporating fitness as a part of improving your wellbeing.

Make A Plan

By now, you probably have a good idea of which areas of your health and wellness need the most attention. You’ve also figured out which ones need to be addressed first to really make a difference in how you feel day-to-day. Now it’s time to turn that awareness into a solid plan. If you’ve noticed that your alcohol intake has gotten out of hand, it might be time to consider checking into rehab to get that under control. Or, if muscle pain and stiffness are slowing you down, booking a physical therapy session could be the right move. Whatever wellness issue you decide to focus on, taking action is key to making real improvements in your health and quality of life, whether it’s looking to wellness enthusiast Kevin Morgan of Pittsford NY for inspiration, or finally joining the gym.
