Expectations Versus Reality During Pregnancy

In our over-filtered social media world, I started looking back on what pregnancy was for me, and just how different it was. It wasn’t that long ago, but I didn’t have a smart phone and Instagram didn’t even exist yet! I thought about expectations versus realities and how we place a lot on ourselves to think and be a certain way. Is it us? Is it the world around us? Is it a bit of both?

I have seen a few trends on what pregnant mamas are focusing on and I put together a few friendly suggestions to relieve a little stress. I wrote about it over on MomResource.ca and you can read the full post there. I’d love to know what you think and if you think I went too far in my advice. Let’s hope not!

Totally agree with. Life is totally different other than our thinking. Our body change every day and we need to adopt new things every day.

#BuonaPasquetta I learned something new today whe #BuonaPasquetta 
I learned something new today when I was speaking to my great aunt in Italy.

In Italy, Easter Monday is known as #Pasquetta , literally 'little Easter'.

The tradition is that the day after Easter, families take a picnic and head to the country. They enjoy leftovers and delicious homemade treats and relax in nature.

How beautiful is that?! I hope you enjoyed your day today, whatever you did. 

The napkin in this picture is a souvenir from Italy, when we visited Assisi. 🕊

My son saw one of the latest @jamieoliver recipes My son saw one of the latest @jamieoliver recipes with me and decided to make it for us for Easter.  Avocado mousse , fresh fruit and an egg chocolate shell created by the avocado! It was divine!! We gobbled it up! So very proud of him for trying something new.

You guys, I still remember how to put on makeup! A You guys, I still remember how to put on makeup! Also, all my makeup is AT LEAST one year old. 😂🤦🏻‍♀️
I managed to put myself together for a zoom birthday and I'm telling you, while I don't miss makeup, I did feel prettier. Especially given the stark contrast between with vs without these days! If you have suggestions for makeup that is all natural and in very natural tones, let me know, because I got nothing.
