Who has time to clean all day? Especially when you have kids! That’s why I love bonafloorcare Premium Spray Mop for hardwood floors - it makes mopping quick and simple 🤩

Just spray, swipe, done ✅ The microfiber pad is reusable up to 500 times (yep, 500!). And the cartridge? Totally refillable!

Now I have extra time to throw a little dance party dance 💃🏼

Back-to-school busy? At least my floors are A+ clean ✨

No one told me how hard perimenopause is! But I found something that works hone.health

Perimenopause symptoms include
✔️ weight gain, muscle loss, bloating
✔️ physical changes like more wrinkles, hair thinning, dry skin, breakouts 
✔️ mental changes like forgetfulness, feeling tired, sluggish, unmotivated, anxious
✔️ emotional changes like getting frustrated quickly, cranky
✔️ sleep issues - trouble falling asleep or waking up at 3 am feeling anxious 

I started with Hone Health & my symptoms are dissipating or gone 🙌🏻 

You get a personalized treatment plan during your consultation with a doctor. And Hone Health makes getting your bloodwork done easy

ExtraGum is a must-have in my teen’s back-to-school essentials. #Extra_Partner

Before homework, soccer, or flag football, Gray grabs a piece of EXTRA® Gum —and just like that, he’s locked in. It’s become an essential part of his daily after school routine. Extra adds a burst of flavor and freshness that helps him lock in, wherever his sports seasons take him. Pick up EXTRA® Gum while Back to School shopping to help your teen get in the EXTRA® Zone!

#ad Oh, that explains it! I thought my hands and weird were sore from working on my phone and doing things around the house. I tried a few things, but it was still there. And it was getting in the way. I figured it was just getting older. But then it started hurting everyday. Turns out… it was arthritis. That explains it! VoltarenGel relieves arthritis, reduces stiffness and improves mobility. I’ve been using since 2020 so I can keep being me.

Tap the link in my bio to learn more about Voltaren and consult with your doctor if you are not sure if your pain is related to arthritis. #Voltaren #VoltarenPartner 2025-08-06 07:32:56 #ad Oh, that explains.. 49,216 +210% 186 +28%
Incredible July memories ✨ A month packed with joyful, silly, fun moments that I’ll never forget 🫶🏻

 I can’t believe only have 5 more summers with Gray before college 🥹

A few highlights here…
- midnight sun visits to geysirs, hiking trails & waterfalls like Brúarárfoss & Gullfoss 
- Visiting four Icelandic lagoons (more coming soon!)
- Glacier Lagoon & a rib boat tour 
- Ice Caving at Katla Ice Cave
- Horseback riding in Vik
- norwegiancruiseline Prima cruise to Iceland, Norway & more
- Go Kart racing on Prima with my kids (W in the chat, I cooked a lot)
- Magical sunsets on our cruise
- My perfect dinner I ate every night at the NCL Haven restaurant 
- Our majestic day in Geirenger 
- Seeing the Seven Sisters Waterfall from our room & patio 
- Dutch pancakes & Belgian waffles (all GF) 
- Lugano. Everything about Lugano was 10/10 splendideroyal 
- Basalt rock columns at Black Beach 
- Thingvellir National Park
- Relaxing Lake Como spa & ice room (Harper’s face!) hoteldulacbellagio 
- Triton’s Fountain in Valletta, Malta
- Flying business class with my kids klm new AMS to SAN - and getting several compliments about the kid’s excellent behavior 

Filled with gratitude I’m able to give these moments to my kids. My husband and I were both brought up in families who really struggled financially. If not for my grandparents, I would not have traveled much at all. More on that too!

Reflecting helps me focus on my goals, re-invigorates me to work harder & get my kid’s buy-in for future trips (along with hopefully my husband’s too!! Come on npitz14 - we believe in you!!)

What were your July highlights? Share with me yours - even seemingly smaller things like slow living & daily cuddles ✨

Majestic Malta 🇲🇹⚓️

Boating through the bluest water with my teen & tween crew to Comino felt like something out of a dream. 🛥️☀️ From sea caves to swimming in the most stunning turquoise water, Malta seriously knows how to summer

Our captain Justin was wonderful. He shared a lot of the history of Malta, Comino & Gozo with us, anchored in all of the best spots & made the day truly memorable. Highly recommend outdoor_explorers_malta for boat rentals in Malta (very affordable!)

Malta is teen-approved & mom-adored💙

All good things come to an end - and today is the sadly last full day of our European summer adventure

At lunch over pancakes today in Amsterdam we reflected on our vacation highlights & lowlights. We all agreed Lake Como was overall a bit of a lowlight, in an Instagram versus reality kind of way

I’m not one to dwell on the negative, and usually I only share positives & favorites. After all, Instagram IS a highlight reel, right? 

Bellagio, Lake Como was really beautiful, and we loved relaxing in the spa at our hotel. But the towns get so overwhelmed with people everyday, and in comparison to Lugano, it was truly mid

We’ve had such an incredible trip this year & made so many fun memories with so many highlights (all of Iceland, waterfalls & geysers at midnight all to ourselves), Geirenger, Norway, beautiful Malta, our amazing day with Justin outdoor_explorers_malta and a fun final stop in Amsterdam capped by a boat tour with pureboatsamsterdam plus LOTs of yummy pancakes

One of the best parts is seeing Grayson & Harper form closer bonds & have so much fun playing together

I’m so grateful to have these experiences with my kids. And hopefully next year we can get npitz14 to come to Europe with us!

Lugano, Switzerland🇨🇭is a hidden gem. It’s what I imagined the Lake Como area to be with less crowds 

It’s located only an hour north of Milan in the Italian-speaking Ticino region of Southern Switzerland. The incredible Italian food, views & laid-back vibes make Lugano the perfect place to relax. 

Sadly we only had one full day to spend there, but we will be back. After Lugano we drove to Lake Como and it was PACKED (even mid-week!) 

We stayed at the stunning splendideroyal & the service was so exceptional, we felt royal 😆

Switzerland is top of our bucket list for summer 2026 along with renting a peddle boat with a slide on Lake Lugano (Harper was so sad we didn’t have time to rent one!). Have you ever been to Switzerland? 2025-07-22 00:10:33 Lugano, Sw.. 34,342 +117% 185 +28%
Geiranger, Norway felt like stepping into a fantasy world—except my kids were there, so I know it was real 😂✨ 

This is Flydalsjuvet, a breathtaking lookout about a 10 min drive from Geiranger. 

💫 To find this magical spot away from the crowds, there’s a short, hidden trail behind the restrooms. The path is an easy 2 min long short, rocky trail

✔️ If you’re facing away from the road walk in between the 1st & 2nd restroom on the left, step off the deck and turn left, hiking down the rocks until you come to the clearing. This is where one person stays to take the photo

✔️ The other person hikes 1 min to the right up more rocks to find this viewpoint. Be cautious - I’ve heard the viewpoint can be very slippery at times, but we had a gorgeous, sunny summer day

We rented an electric Porsche Taycan from grandefjordhotel which was a blast and had the best day exploring Geiranger

Cheers to turning 14! 🎉 Happy birthday to Grayson, the boy who made me a mom fourteen years ago. 

We kicked off the celebration early, with a 12 am midnight sun hike to beautiful Brúarfoss waterfall…

…carrying 3 foot Mylar balloons in 36 degree weather and Harper and I decided to wear dresses 😆

We were a site to behold 💯Thankfully no one saw us These are the silly moments we will cherish forever

Grayson, I’m so proud to be your mom! Happy bday 

In Iceland, you can enjoy the gorgeous scenery all to yourself if you go first thing in the morning or super later at night

Summer in Iceland 🇮🇸 Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon is such a magical, special place. And look at that, we even got a warm, sunny summer day!

Our annual fun mom + kids summer trip started about a week ago. We’ve been exploring West and South Iceland, chasing all the waterfalls & enjoying the long days during Midnight Sun 

I’ve been in such a funny place this past 1.5 years. As a creator, my job is to show up here on social media, share and engage with you. But as a mid-40s woman with a teen son who is (gasp!) almost 14 and a tween, I also want to be hyper present and enjoying all of these moments

I’ve watched many of my friend’s kids leave for college, and I know that day is coming WAY too soon for me. I just want to hold on and cherish these moments and times with my kids while they’re still living with me and kids

Just 3 months ago I share that Gray was almost as tall as me, and now he’s over an inch taller. I always thought as my kids grew I would have MORE time, since the heavy lifting was over. But I now know, that’s not at all true. Time just keeps seeming to speed up

So for now, I’ve decided to hold back some pieces and moments, just for me and my family

I think I need to find my own balance, and let go of the perfectionist tendency to overly stress about making pictures & videos perfect, because I’m certainly not 😆

So that’s my summer challenge. Are you working on anything within yourself this summer? Remember as humans, it’s okay to stop and decide, hey, I want to do things differently

Or hey, let’s go to Iceland… 💯 2025-06-28 07:00:53 .. 0 -100% 116 -20%

Each childhood milestone hits differently for your youngest child. Not because it matters more, but because it’s the last time you’ll experience it 

🎭 The last class performance in tiny chairs
🎨 The last backpack filled with glue sticks, art projects and Mother’s Day presents
📕 The last time you can read books aloud to their class or chaperone field trips
🎉 The last class parties, last time you will be room parent or bring In n Out to School to class
🥹 The last time you’ll walk those familiar school hallways with your baby, who somehow grew up while you blinked

Yesterday, my youngest graduated from 5th grade. And while I beamed with pride, I also quietly cried into my sunglasses (thank goodness I remembered the tissues 😭)

Today was their final walk out past all of the classes lined up, saying goodbye to their school, their teachers, their playgrounds, their memories

These milestone days are beautiful, but they tug at your heart in places you didn’t know existed until you became a mom

If you’re here too, waving at the end of the elementary school chapter… I see you. It’s okay to celebrate and sob. To be filled with joy and also ache a little. That’s the magic of motherhood, you feel everything all at once

Here’s to the next chapter - and to holding onto every moment, even as we let go 💕🎓 2025-06-06 05:13:18 .. 0 -100% 154 +6%

Let’s talk about making social media a safe place for teens 👏🏻 On instagram teens are automatically placed into Teen Accounts with built-in protections that limit the content they can see & who can contact them 🙌🏻
 
Teen Accounts also have time limit reminders, messaging restrictions, & sleep mode enabled
 
If you’re a parent and want peace of mind knowing your teens are in these protected settings, chat with them to make sure they have the correct age on Instagram. If it’s older, have them fix it ✔️
 
Knowing these safeguards are built into Teen Accounts & applied automatically gives me more confidence to have my teen on Instagram
