summer break ootd So everyone’s talking about a summer break ootd 

So everyone’s talking about a 90s summer with their kids and I’m loving it! I grew up in that era when summers were simple. My kids will be enjoying days outside at the pool, running through sprinkles, and eating popsicles. No schedule, just fun summer days. 

This outfit reminds me of the 90s with the bright blue colors💙How will you be spending your summer break? #summerootd #athleisurestyle

favorite newborn accessory here’s my little secr favorite newborn accessory 

here’s my little secret to getting things done around the house with a newborn. I love the Wildbird baby carrier! It’s easy to put on and comfy for both of us. My baby boy always falls asleep and I’m able to have productive days. Homeschooling and checking off my daily household tasks is so much easier with this baby carrier. Also my baby boy is 12 pounds so I’m basically wearing a weighted vest and getting my daily workout in!

homeschool activities ♟️ So Maddie and little Ra homeschool activities ♟️ 

So Maddie and little Ray learned how to play chess and they’re so good at it now. They started taking lessons with the free @duolingo app and it’s been so helping in teaching them! Chess is a game of strategy that helps kids learn to evaluate positions, recognize patterns, and analyze “if-then” scenarios. Now it’s time for me to learn lol. 

Do you and your kids know how to play chess? I highly recommend Duolingo (it’s free) if your kids want to learn a new language or learn how to play chess! #homeschoolactivities #homeschoolmom #homeschoolcurriculum https://liketk.it/6dpfI

6 Organization Tips for the Busy Mom

This post may contain affiliate links. If you click through and make a purchase, I may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Are you a busy mom that needs some organization tips? Busy moms need practical tools to stay organized. I am a work- from-home mom with two children and a long list of daily tasks. I’ve realized that when I’m unorganized, I feel stressed, anxious, and life is chaotic. Most busy moms can relate to just needing practical tools to implement into their daily life to help stay organized. One of the easiest ways that I’ve been able to get organized is by writing things down. As a busy mom, if I don’t write things down, I’ll probably forget about them. I recently found a practical tool to help me stay organized. The VersaTiles by Boogie Board has been a tool that I need in my home to help me stay on top of all my tasks. Here’s how I implement the VersaTiles into my daily routine with 6 organization tips for the busy moms:

1.Wake up Early

I love to start my days with waking up before my kids because I feel refreshed when I start my days early with planning and getting organized. I also like to write out positive affirmations on my VersaTiles. Some of my favorite affirmations to write out are: I am a good mom, I am organized, I will have a productive day. I can easily change up my affirmations every morning with my VersaTiles. If you’re a busy mom that struggles with waking up early check out my blog post on 10 Morning Routine Habits. 

2.Top Priority Tasks

I’ve been using my VersaTiles memo board to write down my top 3 tasks for the day. As a busy mom, our days can get very hectic with all the responsibilities. However, I don’t feel as overwhelmed when I see my top 3 tasks for the day. This also allows me to put more of a focus on what’s most important to accomplish for the day.

3.Meal Prep

Meal prepping is a task that has helped save me so much time and helped me stay organized. Breakfast time, lunch time, and dinner time can get a little hectic especially when I’m not organized. I write down the meals for the day on my VersaTiles so my family doesn’t have to ask me. My husband can easily see what’s on the menu and he can start preparing dinner on the days when I’m busy. Having the menu written out for breakfast, lunch and dinner has been so helpful. 

4.Delegate Tasks to Kids

I’ve used the VersaTiles to write down tasks for my kids. My daughter has really enjoyed this because I allow her to put a checkmark next to the tasks she completes. This helps me because I don’t have to do all the tasks around the house. It also helps my daughter take on more responsibilities.

5.Hire Help

As a busy mom, I’ve realized that sometimes hiring help is best. Specifically, I have a cleaning crew that comes to our house about 1-2x a month to deep clean my house. I typically write on my VersaTiles the days the cleaning crew will come to our house so that my husband will also know. As a busy mom, it’s important to communicate with your household and I’ve found it to be easy to communicate through writing on one of our VersaTiles located on the refrigerator door. 

6.Simplify and Declutter

Simplifying and decluttering is a process and it doesn’t happen overnight especially if you have a lot of stuff. I have found it to be easy to declutter one room at a time over the course of a week. For example, one week I will focus on donating and decluttering my daughter’s room. I’ll write on the VersaTiles the room that we are focused on for the week.


I hope these 6 organization tips for busy moms were helpful! The VersaTiles have been such a great practical tool for me to use to stay organized. The memo boards come in 4 different colors to choose from to coordinate with your own individual style. I love the onyx color for my kitchen and office space! I’ve been able to easily add these VersaTile memo boards to different rooms in my home from my home office, kids room, kitchen and my bedroom. It’s also really convenient that you don’t have to worry about batteries. That’s definitely a mom win! It’s such a sleek alternative to white boards, chalk boards, and notepads.
