  • SUNDAY. I get my baby back today! And thought our drive to Mobile was a good time to reflect on the things I learned from my kid-free weekend: 1) Distance makes the heart grow fonder (!!!) 2) When you forget sunscreen on your first beach day of the summer, you will burn. 👹 3) “Sleeping in” means waking up at 7:30 AM and feeling totally rejuvenated from that extra hour. 😂 #itried #earlybird 4) The sun roof of a car is made for loud music and sticking out your hands 🙌🏽 5) Sometimes, boxed brownie mix is all you need to curve that 7 PM sweet tooth. Don’t even bake it - EAT IT RAW. 🤤 6) A day at the beach is as effective as a day at the spa 🌊 7) Your spouse is your 👏🏼 best 👏🏼 friend 👏🏼, and that relationship needs as much attention, if not more, than the attention you give your kids. FEED IT. 8) Yoga pants are a closet staple and WHY HAS IT TAKEN YOU 2 YEARS TO OWN A PAIR?! 9) Taking care of yourself is part of taking care of your kids 👪 10) Grandparents are angels on Earth. 11) I think I’m doing an A-OK job at this “mom” thing. ❤️ Thank you to all of my sweet friends on this space who went out of your way to console and encourage me for one of my mom “firsts”. THIS is why I am on this app...for friendships like yours. #acolorstory
  • We went the entire day not knowing what time it was and dipped our toes into the crystal clear Gulf and ate peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and talked about life and I swear, it was like we were on our honeymoon. ❤️
  • 27 year old Kaylyn: “I will never be the mom that drives a mini van.” 28 year old Kaylyn: “Beep beep! Move over ‘cause this mama just got a brand new ride!” 😂 I’ve only owned one car since I began driving over 13 years ago, and that was a convertible bug named Daisy 🌼 gifted to me by my parents on Christmas Day, 2005. I sold her in 2015, and for the last 3 years, my husband and I have been sharing ONE car! Working from home has its perks like that, but scheduling out client meetings, mom play-dates, running errands, grocery runs and simply having the freedom to get out of the house has always taken prior planning and started to become a headache. Often times, I felt like I was on house arrest!⛓🏡 We finally decided to pull the plug, and you’re looking at my first big girl purchase! // After testing a few cars, the Odyssey totally won my mama heart. SO MUCH SPACE (this seats 8 people!) If you’re considering buying a new car for your growing family, this is IT. 🚘 but don’t test drive it unless you’re prepared to drive it off of the lot. It’s THAT amazing!!! Now, what should I name her?!#notpregnant #hondaodyssey
  • Cheers to Friday and a kid-free weekend!!! ❤️🍹👫
  • The other day, I was talking to a friend’s kids who were raving about an overnight stay at their grandparents house. They boasted about having Dr Pepper for breakfast and staying up past their bedtimes, and there was a twinkle in their eye that couldn’t be overlooked. ✨ On the drive home, a sadness came over me at the thought of you not having that experience. So today, at the halfway point between Mississippi and Florida, we’re passing you off for a weekend at your Kat and Bubbys. This weekend will mark many firsts: my first morning to sleep in. Two whole days without changing a diaper, prepping a sippy cup or scrubbing under your high chair after every meal. A shower without you by my feet, playing with the shampoo bottles (and dropping one on my toe 🙃). No Puppy Pals on Disney or the sound of you in my tupperware drawer. But the thing I fear most - the thing that puts a hard lump in my throat - is that it will be the very first time in your 15 months of existence that I will wake up, and you simply won’t be under my same roof. I won’t be tip-toeing into your room to grab you from your crib as we wake with the birds and the sun cracking through the curtains...and I’m sad. But I know it’s good for you. And I know it’s good for me. So my hope for you is this: I hope you have Dr Pepper for breakfast. I hope you play in the dirt and skip your bath. I hope you picnic on a feast of goldfish and crustless peanut butter and jelly sandwiches as you point out every bird in the sky. I hope you stay up so late that you see the golden crust of the moon. And I hope you don’t miss me, not even for a single second. But know, dear boy, that I will surely be missing you, and that moon you see? 🌔 I see the same one, too.
  • Summer body = in progress. 🙃🎂
  • You know that time of day right before the sun sets when the water gets an iridescent glow? That’s my favorite time to be on the beach. #30a
  • I ❤️ an easy, peasy lunch while I chase around my little one on the reg! The base of this harvest bowl from @dailyharvest is butternut squash + chimchurri and it’s my FAV of all their harvest bowls! To prepare, I poured the contents of my cup into a saucepan, added a splash of broth and PRESTO 💥 LUNCH...that’s actually GOOD for you! And not peanut butter and jelly for the fifth time this week! 🙈 I topped my bowl with brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes (which can cook in the oven on 375 for 20 min while you’re kid chasing 👶🏼🏃🏻‍♀️) chickpeas and a drizzle of tahini + maple dressing (for the dressing, whisk 1/4 cup tahini + 1 tbs organic maple syrup = this stuff tastes good on just about any vegetable). I SWEAR I would eat this over any restaurant meal any day of the week. And for you: code KAYLYN for 3 free cups! 🥔🥦🍅🌽🍠 check out IG stories for a peek.
