Blogging 101 – Time Saving Tax Tips to Help You Stay Organized

When I found out I would be filing taxes as a self-employed blogger for the first time this year I automatically became overwhelmed with stress. I mean the stress that makes you freak out because you don’t know what the heck you are doing. I knew nothing about filing taxes as a self-employed business owner, and I was overwhelmed about the whole process. Plus, I had a million questions: how do I track my expenses, what can I write off, how do I calculate my taxes? All valid questions for any first time self-employed business owner. And as a mom on top of being self-employed business owner, taxes are the last thing you want to stress about. Continue reading “Blogging 101 – Time Saving Tax Tips to Help You Stay Organized”
Hope you had a great weekend! So if you follow me on my Instagram and Snapchat, then you know how much I love to brunch. Every weekend my interns and I pick a new place in Houston to meet and have brunch. I love getting together with these amazing women where we can talk about our passion for blogging and ways to grow our business. After our meeting we always take pictures, so we love going to places with a great setting for blog photos. So I compiled my list of the most Instagram-worthy brunch spots in Houston, perfect for meeting up with friends and having a photo opportunity after. And who doesn’t love brunch? It’s the best of breakfast and lunch!
Can you believe this amazing weather we have been having? It isn’t technically Spring yet but it sure feels like it. This weather is perfect for one of my favorite outfits I wore on my trip to Playa De Mujeres. And with Spring Break coming up, this would be great for any warm vacation plans you might have. Check out this full look below with these adorable ruffle striped shorts and some exciting news coming to the blog!
Today I am sharing a perfect transition look from Winter to Spring, or if you live in Houston where the weather changes daily. When I wore this outfit to brunch with my interns last week it was sixty degrees outside but by the time we were done with brunch it was close to eighty degrees! Luckily I had one of my favorite transitional sweaters that worked well with the indecisive weather. So if you are like me, and not ready to give up sweaters yet, here is a transitional look that you can wear through Spring with this beautiful lace-up sweater!

Thank you Dreams Playa De Mujeres Resort for our complimentary stay. As always all thoughts and opinions are mine alone. Thank you for supporting those who support this blog.
Last month I had the privilege to stay at the brand new all-inclusive Dreams Playa De Mujeres Resort. I was there for a girl’s weekend and our stay was absolutely amazing. The staff went out of their way to make our girls weekend extra special so I though I would share my travel diaries with you! It was a wonderful relaxing getaway for this mama, and for my first experience in Mexico, I couldn’t have imagined anything more beautiful. Next time when I come back I will be definitely be taking my hubby and little man with me. The Dreams Playa De Mujeres Resort is not only a great place for a girls trip, but the perfect resort for families. With their own Explorer’s Club for kids, kid’s pool park, and spa packages for moms, it truly is a dream come true. Check out my travel diaries and my Youtube video below!

Choo Choo Jayden is Two! – Rustic Railroad Birthday Party with Shindigz
Thank you Shindigz for partnering up with this post. As always all thoughts and opinions are mine alone. Thank you for supporting those who support this blog.
These past couple of weeks ago we celebrated Jayden his second birthday bash. Going off his love for Thomas the Train, we decided to do a Rustic Railroad birthday party for our little man. Thankfully with the help of Shindigz, what would normally would be a stressful time for this mama, was one of the easiest and most creative, and not to mention fun party, we had for the little guy. We didn’t have to worry about scouring different party stores for all of our decor needs, instead we went online and ordered tons of personalized party decor for Jayden’s birthday from Shindigz and had it shipped directly to our home. Check out Jayden’s Rustic Railroad birthday below.
I used $1200 in Eye Cream and this is what happened – Lionesse Amber Collection
Thank you Lionesse for sponsoring this post. As always all thoughts and opinions are mine alone. Thank you for supporting those who support this blog.
When the opportunity presented to me to review $1200 in eye creme products from the Lionesse Amber Collection, I was very skeptical at first. What skin care product would be worth $1200? Does it work miracles? And who alone could pay this much for skin care? Definitely not a momma on a budget like me! But what I did know was I had serious dark circles under my eyes, caused by lack of sleep, and exhaustion that comes with the job of being a mama to a very active kiddo while trying to blog in the wee hours of the night. And if this could get rid of my under eye circles then I why not give it a shot. So I ordered the Lionesse Amber collection, and this is what happened.
Hope ya’ll had a great weekend! Valentine’s Day is tomorrow and I wanted to share one last look I wore to the Galentine’s brunch I co-hosted last week at Barbazzar. I love this time of year because it gives me an excuse to plan fun cute events with my beautiful blogger babes where we can come together and build connections over chocolates and coffee. This outfit is all about the laces from one of my favorite lace up skirts to these fun snake-skin heels. Check out this full look and our Galentine’s Brunch with Barbazzar below.

Hey guys,
TFIG! This month I’ve stepped it up when it comes to putting my health and fitness goals first. I made a promise to myself that I would not let my work with my blog, and all the social event that come with it get in the way of my fitness goals. So this month I cleared my schedule M-F and set specific times to work on my blog, and making sure to go to the gym first thing in the morning. And let me tell you, it has made a world of difference. Another thing that has really helped me when it comes to my nutrition is HelloFresh. HelloFresh has stream lined my cooking and prepping by giving me healthy, easy alternatives already prepped meals shipped right to my door! And for the whole family too! No more getting tired of the same chicken breast and broccoli all day, HelloFresh has great options including vegetarian options for the whole family.
