My first pregnancy destroyed my ability to wear much of a heel. Not to mention, carting around a toddler and now being super pregnant with baby number 2! This mama needs practical shoes that I can function in, but I still like to look cute! No one wants to live in a rut of clogs and tennis shoes all the time. 

To make life easier for you, I pulled a few looks that I am loving! They up your outfit game instantly, but are practical and easy to wear for our real life days! 

Boots and Booties!

While it’s still cool out, I am all about the bootie! 

These are absolutely adorable! With practically no heel, they dress up jeans or leggings (or heck, even a skirt!) but still allow you to walk. Which is a huge plus in my book!

 

A subtle peep toe is also fun as the weather warms up! These DO have a heel, but its chunky and stable. Plus they are available in three colors! 

Last up, THESE fringe booties! I am in love. They are available in a ton of colors, super comfortable, and add interest to literally any outfit! Disclaimer: Do order a size up! They run small.

Flats!

Gone are the days when the word “flats” meant literally ballet style shoes 24/7! There are so many fun ways to wear flats now that up your style but keep your heels on the ground.

These basket-weave mules are adorable! You can totally wear them with jeans or dress them up for something a little more fancy. The padded sole is also a huge plus, making them super comfy for all-day wear!

 

T-strap Espidrilles are a fun twist on the Mary Jane look! Incredibly comfortable on your feet, and the added security of the ankle strap will keep them put while you are on the go!

Want something a little more punchy?? I absolutely love a good animal print shoe! You literally can wear jeans and a t-shirt (or leggings!), and then throw on these shoes and upgrade your look!

Sneakers

Sometimes you just need a good pair of comfy sneakers to get the job done. All of these are stylish options that are functional, comfortable and stylish!

These Nude slip on Mules are awesome for running errands! Easy to just grab and go out the door, and perfect as the weather warms up!

Like I said before with the flats, if I am going to wear sneakers, sometimes bold prints can take it from “I just ran a marathon” to “Put together Mom!” These leopard print ones check all of my boxes!

TOMS Canvas Classics are a favorite go-to, and they support a fantastic cause! Extremely comfortable and easy to wear, if you haven’t tried TOMS yet, you need to. I am in love with this champagne pair!

Last, but so definitely not least in my book: rose gold Kate Spade Keds! Keds are a timeless brand, known for being practical and comfortable. The shimmer in these is to die for, and they are on my short list for my next birthday! 

There you have it! My round up of awesome, functional shoes that help keep you out of the “mom rut” that we so easily fall into! Have another favorite shoe style? Tell us in the comments!

If you need me, I’ll just be sitting over here i If you need me, I’ll just be sitting over here in my egg chair, snuggling my baby and watching my big kids run barefoot in the sunshine. Life is too short not to enjoy the little moments 🤍

We are officially a household that will NOT be sho We are officially a household that will NOT be shopping with Target anymore! 🚫 If you know me and my deep love of Target 🎯, this is a hard one for me. And I’m not usually a “stop shopping places” kind of person. (See the video I posted earlier, among other things) It takes a lot for me.

I am so frustrated at the kind of madness my kids are growing up in. The buck has to stop here. I will show them what is right and wrong, not these companies supporting such horrible things. I mean if partnering with Satanists and selling “tuck friendly” clothing to toddlers isn’t just going too far then I’m not sure what is.

Just think about this: why are you buying your household essentials from a company that supports satanic groups?? If they are openly doing this, can you imagine what they are hiding in your every day products?? 😳😳😳 Over this last few months I’ve learned more about all of this and it’s scary how many harmful things are “allowed” on their shelves!

I’ve found a better way to shop—a healthier way! and with a company that supports and upholds the highest values! We are switching almost all of our household essentials & next month, even pasture-raised, hormone-free beef 🥩 from them!

Thank you to The Wellness Store for giving me and my family a truly safe and wholesome place to shop! 🌱 It’s a company worth talking about…which is why I can’t stop! I care way too much about those of you who have trusted my opinion enough to follow me!!
I want to speak to the ladies who strive to be a P I want to speak to the ladies who strive to be a Proverbs 31 woman for just a second! If you’re new here, you can expect to see a lot of life with my kids! Spending my days with them is my greatest joy (but dang, it can be hard sometimes! Other #stayathomemoms feel me?!). I am teaching them through hands-on experiences. Less screen time, more outside time. To start their day in God’s word and prayer. The work we do here matters, moms.
I am my husband‘s biggest cheerleader and supporter! You won’t see any feminism or wokeness here. When he wins, I win. I’ll do just about anything to help him succeed! There ain’t nothing wrong with that, ladies. In fact it’s our job as wives. Own it 💪🏻
While we’re talking about it, being a stay at home mom does not mean that you can’t bring in income! Even if it’s just a little here, or a little there it can make a huge difference. And it doesn’t have to mean time away from your children! I’m happy to share what I do to anyone interested 🤍(and yes, there are multiple avenues!).
It’s also my job as a homemaker to be the gatekeeper for what comes into our home and goes into and on our bodies. I’m all about simple, delicious meals that I can feel good about feeding my family. I’m also all about low-tox living! Do a deep dive into the chemicals in your home and you will be too! You can always find clean swaps in my stories and highlights! 🌱 

If any of that resonates with you, stick around! I’m glad you’re here🤍

We may have already posted these on @michaelleerea We may have already posted these on @michaelleerealty , but I just need to share how dang proud I am of our guy on this one, and how happy we are for our clients! This RV park sale had so many ups and downs, and Michael worked so hard to take care of his people and bring their dream to reality. He never gave up and we are so excited to watch their new business thrive! If you’re looking to stay near Lake Toxaway this summer, make sure you check out Blue Ridge Falls RV & Glamping resort! And if you’re looking to buy an RV park, our guy is now very experienced!

If a child creates something for you, you should t If a child creates something for you, you should treat it like the most spectacular masterpiece  you have ever seen. Because when you do, something magical happens. You create in them an overwhelming feeling of confidence. You reinforce the joy of giving and serving others. You fill their cup with value. You encourage them to grow and experiment and make new things. You literally, truly shape their heart. So when a child makes you something, please cherish it. 🤍

“But I don’t order that many cleaning products “But I don’t order that many cleaning products every month.”

This is the most common thing I hear about The Wellness Box! Let me go ahead and debunk that for you. Neither do I! That would be crazy, considering we live in a tiny home. 😅

I definitely don’t order that many cleaning products each month, especially when these are so concentrated that they last forever. But I do order this AMAZING coffee (no mold or toxins!). Baby wipes, deodorant, toothpaste, dish soap, protein bars and shakes, nutritional shakes for our kids, vitamins and supplements, basic health care items such as ibuprofen and Tylenol. Gatorade replacements and emergency-c replacements without all of the sugar. I order sunscreen and bug spray (all natural ingredients! 🙌🏻). I order shampoo and conditioner (salon quality) and high-end, clean make up at a fraction of the price! Shopping with The Wellness Store is not just a cleaning products subscription. It’s a way to replace money I’m already spending somewhere else, from a non-woke, patriot owned company. It’s a way to save money on products I’m already using, plus it’s dropped off at my doorstep instead of having to haul my kids into the store! And if there’s ever a month where I truly don’t need anything (that hasn’t happened yet!) I can just skip! 😍 

You can even add a subscription to get grass-fed, hormone free, pasture raised beef shipped to you! 

I hope that helps to clear the air at any confusion 🤍🤍
