Thank you to Kodiak Cakes for partnering with me on this post!
A NOTE FROM ME TO YOU
Hi friend!
This has been an odd week. Between flooding/snow/tornadoes and all the crazy weather we’ve seen across the South, I kinda don’t know what to think, lol! On top of that, I’ve been sitting in the middle of a bunch of moving parts… I don’t know exactly how to describe it but lots of boring stuff/planning and also exciting stuff behind the scenes is happening. Taxes, budgets and things are flying in at me that are over my head, but wow… I guess that means progress is happening right?
Do you ever talk to someone and feel like you left the conversation feeling like your brain is reeling? That’s how I’ve felt this week and I can’t really blame it on postpartum brain any more I don’t think… it’s just the perpetual mom brain. Ha! Anyway, without getting into too many details I’ve made some scary big goals for myself and following through on them puts me vastly outside my comfort zone.
I’ve been wrestling between the hustle more/ do more mindset and the devotion I read this week which was such a good reminder of not taking on too much without letting go of something else. God has already written our story and knows what would make the most sense for us to let go of if we listen. Trying to listen in hard for what good things may not be my best things to keep on my plate right now.
If you haven’t checked out Embraced yet, I’d highly recommend it! If you follow me on stories, you probably saw the day I showed this devotional.
I also LOVED Eric taking over my IG stories on Monday… it was hilarious and he killed it as I knew he would. Truly, if you didn’t get a chance to check it out, make sure you go to the Eric Takeover highlight saved on my profile so you can see him poke fun at me and other bloggers in the best way possible. 😉
It’s getting late and I wanna catch an episode of Cheer as I fall asleep so I’ll sign off here… but before I do I’ll be working on this year’s version of my LOVE YOUR BODY post this week and would love to hear if there’s anything specific you want me to share about during this LOVE YOUR BODY challenge! Please let me know if so! Postpartum depression, body positivity, struggles with postpartum… nothing is off limits so let me know so I can get my thinking cap/ writing hand on!
Love y’all big!
xoxo,
Heather

THIS WEEK’S BEST SELLERS
DEALS THIS WEEK
A Grocery Store Find We Loved This Week
SHOP: Amazon Pink Peplum – TTS/SMALL // My Jeans // Initial Necklace // Leopard Apple Watch Band // Finn’s Moto Pants // Leyton’s Valentine’s Day Tee
This week we picked up some yummy Kodiak Cakes products from the store and let me tell you, we ALL love these! For a fun Valentine’s Day “tivity“, I let Leyton help me make almond poppyseed pancakes and we cut X’s and O’s with cookie cutters! Of course, Leyton wanted to decorate his with Valentine’s Day “sprinklers.” Not only were they a great snack but something FUN for us to do all together!
Kodiak Cakes fit so well into our family’s lifestyle and meal plan. I believe in eating the best foods we can so that we are preparing our bodies for whatever adventures will come that day (whether good or bad, ha)!
You’ve probably heard about their Buttermilk “add-water only” Power Cakes (which have 14g of protein just with water – great way to get extra protein into your macros) but did you know they also have oatmeal packets that are great for on-the-go eating, toaster power waffles, and Bear Bites mini-graham cracker snack packs. AKA a busy mom’s dream come true! Finn and Leyton fight over these, lol!
I feel good about letting the boys eat Kodiak Cakes because every product is made with 100% whole grains and high quality protein. Y’all have probably seen Finn scarf down the toaster power waffles at least a few times, ha!
I’m so excited to tell y’all that you can use my code heatherbrown20 to receive 20% OFF now through March 8th at midnight!
