And here they are! I got to pick every section color, laces, you name it! And I customised them by adding “believe” to the side. I still need to work off those last few pregnancy pounds and these shoes are the perfect motivation to help me “believe” I can do it!

They are the New Balance 993 and the best part is that these babies are made in the USA! Seriously in love with that part. I’m also in love with the pink and neon!

It really is true when they say the days are long It really is true when they say the days are long but the years are short. One day I’m struggling to carry two babies at a time while wrangling a toddler and then next minute they are all off to school and practices and friends’ houses. With all three kids in school we’ve been thinking a lot about their futures and how we are going to one day pay for college. We set up a Michigan Education Trust 529 plan for each of our kids when they were babies and I am SO happy we did! With a MET account, we can pay for future college tuition at today’s prices. With MET’s discounted age-based pricing the earlier you start, the more you are able to save! Plus grandparents and other loved ones can contribute to my kids’ accounts too! With MET you get back what you put in if your child chooses a different path and the money goes with you if your child goes to school out of state. You can even transfer it to immediate family members and all contributions to MET plans are tax deductible! To learn more about how to set up a MET account and the benefits of starting your child’s account early, check out my stories or the link in my bio. @mieducationtrust #sponsored #SETwithMET #MI529 #collegesavings #METSept2023

Calling all girl moms! Talking to my girls about p Calling all girl moms! Talking to my girls about puberty and their bodies has always been important to me. I want my girls to know they can always come to me with any question and that we can learn and talk about our bodies together. Being a girl is amazing and wonderful but bizarre at the same time!
