There’s no doubt that for years boys have been discouraged to play with “girl” toys. Going down the toy aisles in most stores, we see that they are organized by gender. With my first son, naturally, I bought most toys from the boy aisles. However, after having two more sons following a daughter, they were then naturally exposed to girl toys. Our daughter Dylan loved dressing her younger brothers up in play dresses and before you knew it, I had three princesses enjoying tea parties. Immediately, I thought it was the sweetest thing and knew in my heart that this type of exposure would only make them better men. This type of play makes them more nurturing and connects them to their sister. And it works both ways; she certainly loves a good basketball game in the front yard.⁣ 🙌🏼
⁣
🎉Watching my kids navigate through childhood has been most rewarding. And I’m afraid that if I don’t let my children just be children, I’m going to wake up one day and they’re going to be all grown up! As a mom to three boys, it is my hope to break all rigid stereotypes out there. I want to raise my kids to be themselves, whether Boss Baby Brody’s in a dress or Dylan is kicking butt during a basketball game. My daughter has certainly demonstrated being tough, so why can’t my boys demonstrate a more playful, nurturing side?⁣
⁣
🎉So, to the woman in aisle five, I will say this. A little shift in perspective can go a long way. And with more love, acceptance, and kindness in the world, we all win. 👉🏼 Linking all of our style on the blog today! (Link in bio) and tag any mama needing to know it’s ok their child is different!⁣ 🌈

🐾No one tells you how quickly dogs age. We've had our Shelby now for 16 years and she has certainly earned her white whiskers and milky eyes. I realize I have to call her name a little louder too. It's truly a miracle in itself that she's made it this far when her breeds lifespan is supposed to be till 9 years old.⁣
⁣
🐾She's been with us before our children were even thought of. I am sure she can tell a tale or two. She comforted us during three rough pregnancy losses and accompanied at least 15 moves. She's been able to see our children be born and grow up. As strange as it sounds she too is gripping into these fleeting moments.⁣
⁣
🐾It’s an understatement when I say we cherish our 3 dogs. With every chewed up chair, stained rugs and couches they are our everything. We are relishing in Shelby’s golden year and appreciating how many chapters her paw prints have made a stamp in. Our time with her is dwindling down and we want to celebrate and thank her for being our constant! ⁣

#ad From plants, to pillows, to blankets, to scents, everything matters when setting the scene for your family and creating an inviting household. @Glade® plugIns® PLUS Aqua Waves™ Fragrance is my secret scent that I use to bring my family together. Glade® plugIns® PLUS’s Rest Mode feature has an 8 hour rest cycle, so you can enjoy fragrance on your schedule and save the beautiful fragrance for when you are actually home. I love when people feel comfortable and ask, “Your house smells so good, What is that scent?” After homemaking for years, it’s a fact that scents bring people together, and with Glade® plugins® PLUS you get to control the intensity with its easy to use dial. It’s important to spend time with family, so clear the clutter, and start creating a space where people want to unwind. Be sure to check out @Glade® plugins® PLUS Aqua Waves™ for your home. What makes you feel right at home? Comment below. #Glade®

For Valentine’s Day my daughter and I are doing what girls do best - Netflix and Chill! The new movie To All The Boys: Always and Forever is now on Netflix. 💕 We got our robes, face mask, and treats for a special mother daughter date outdoors! (check my stories) #AD

I’m excited to connect with my daughter over Lara Jean’s life challenges that I know Dylan will soon have to overcome as well (college applications, relationships, and moving away from home!) As my only daughter, we have such a special bond that I know will last forever ✨ Grab your teen and settle in at home for a fun girls night and watch @ToAllTheBoysNetflix this weekend. #ToAllTheBoys
