  • Weekend coffee crew! We love hitting up the coffee shop after the kids’ activities, and it’s always a bonus when parents can actually enjoy a hot cuppa ☕️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you’re local to Kelowna check out my latest post on #kidfrirendly coffee shops {Link in profile} because parents everywhere deserve hot coffee 🙌🏻 #amiright
  • Weekend happiness right here! A little inspiration & a whole lotta java are on my agenda ☕️❤️ (and who am I kidding... ballet, gymnastics, and snack duty on repeat of course 👧🏼👧🏼). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Either way, we’re ready for you weekend! Happy #friyay friends! Tell me your weekend plans 👇🏼
  • Canadian winter at its finest ❄️☀️⛸ #bluebirdday
  • Sweet, sweet baby.❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Or maybe not so baby anymore 😢 But believe it or not this little big girl is still in her crib! She loves closeness and being snug, and she’s so itty bitty that she still fits perfectly. (Not to mention we are totally ok with her not getting out of her bed at her leisure for now). 😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We have been debating setting up her big girl bed, because it just seems time. Then I was offered the sweetest advice from a fellow Mama that I had to share: “Let her be little for a little while longer.” Thank you @sweetlullabysleep for this. ❤️ The perfect reminder that there’s no need to rush our little ones growing up. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ PS- she’s totally sleeping with my blanket from when I was little. I mean come on 😭😭😭 #mamasgirl
  • Hey! I’m Raina. The Mama behind this account who also happens to be incredibly awkward in solo photos 😂 {Like what am I even supposed to do with my hands? 🤷🏻‍♀️} ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Annnnyways. Jumping on here today for a little #fridayintro as there are many new faces and it’s been a while! 👋🏼 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you follow my blog, you’ll know I love sharing inspiration for all things motherhood, from books for you, to (easy!) ideas for holiday fun, and parenting wins. 🙌🏻 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m Mama to two little girls doing my best to balance family, work, passions, goals & whatever else life has to offer. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So BASICALLY, if you’re looking for a holiday themed preschool snack to prep at midnight that’ll take five minutes, or an audio book recommendation for reassurance you’re not alone in a parent-toddler power struggle— I’m you’re girl 🙋🏻‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’d love to know what kind of content YOU love. Grateful if you’d share below👇🏼. PS: a random list of facts about me is @ #ohheyimraina 🤪 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📸by the talented @melissaskoda ❤️
  • Oh the joys of wrangling kids into winter wear. 🤣 At least I can take comfort knowing this is a struggle passed between generations ... given the stories surfacing of my tantrums over snowsuits being “too hot and too tiiiight” for the first 6 years of my life. 😳 #payback #minime
  • I always love the fresh perspective and energy of a new year! ✨ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s no surprise I love list making ... and this 52 Lists for Happiness journal is the perfect inspiration for positivity, balance and joy.❤️ Bonus its so pretty too! {linked in profile if you are interested in checking it out! 😘}
  • Spent the last day of winter break in a winter wonderland❄️☃️ The girls tried tubing and had theeee best time (until they were done and then it was like 🙅🏻‍♀️) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How’s everyone’s first Monday back going? Are you a 🙌🏻, 😴, or 😭?!
  • L O V E is them. Reflected so much in these little moments❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Starting the New Year feeling very grateful and blessed for exactly where I am right now.✨ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Do you keep a gratitude journal? I’ll admit I’ve fallen off track lately, but am excited to start again! What are three things you are grateful for today? #grateful
