Like father like son. • We spent Saturday getting the garden bed ready for planting in the next few weeks. Watching Abe take the time to let M help made my heart so happy. Teach em young to get out in nature, be helpful, and enjoy projects... That is our parenting style. • • • • • • • #gardenlife #gardeningwithkids #gardeningisfun #veggiegarden #backyardgarden #dadlife #fatherhood #dadsofinstagram #fatherson #fathersontime #playoutside #outdoorkids #outdoorplay #lovetheoutdoors #outsidefun #freerangekids #raiseawildchild #getoutsideandplay #adventuresofchildren #prouddad #justlikedaddy #allboy #outsideisfree #goplayoutside #liveoutdoors #outsideculture #growyourownveggies #raisedbeds

We had the opportunity to take some front porch quarantine family pictures last week, and I’m not gonna lie, I find it very sad that it took a quarantine to get family pictures taken. • This quarantine has been so difficult for me. Most days I find myself teetering between sadness, anxiety, feeling of being overwhelmed, and sometimes even just pure crankyness and I just can’t snap out of. But I also have happy emotions, happiness at seeing how hard my husband works, happiness at seeing my son adapt to this insane time in history, happiness to have the most important people under my roof all day everyday. I hope we carve out time to do important things (like taking family pictures) instead of always rushing to get all the other things done. • I have started a list of a few things I hope we keep doing after this social distancing is over. I hope we continue to help each other through the hard times instead of brushing them aside. I hope we put more focus into our family and remember that no matter what this house and the people who live within its walls are the most important people. • What do you hope to continue with after the world starts spinning again? 📸: @lifeinbendoregon • • • • • • #familygoals #familyfirst #familycomesfirst #familyforever #familylove #lovemyfamily #familyfun #familytimeisthebesttime #familymoments #familypictures #quarantine #quarantinelife #stayathome #anxiety #pregnancy #positivemindset #innerpeace #mentalwellness #anxietysucks #selfawareness #powerofnow #takecontrol #changeyourmindset #selfempowerment #pregnancystyle #frontporchproject #33weekspregnant #quarentinephotoshoot #mindsetiseverything #mentalhealthmatters

We’ve been keeping a pretty big secret over here in the Shehadeh house. Baby number 2 is coming Spring 2020! • We are just trying to soak up all the memories with M as an only child for as long as we can.

Sometimes people ask why we choose to live out in Sunriver (25-30 mins from the “big city” of Bend). And honestly it is for days like this. A deserted golf course, the dogs running wild, and the amazing uninterrupted family time. It’s my favorite. Do you prefer the big city or a small town? #sunriver #familytime #gooutsideandplay #soimamomnow • • • • • • • #sunriveroregon #outsideisfree #adventurers #goplayoutside #outdooradventures #liveoutdoors #adventurelife #outsideculture #adventureon #bloggermom #motherhoodintheraw #playoutside #outdoorkids #lovetheoutdoors #outsidefun #freerangekids #raiseawildchild #kidswhoexplore #adventuresofchildren #capturethemoment #smalltownlife #mommylifestyle #thisismotherhood #momlifestyle #momentslikethese #seekthesimplicity #momlifestyle

I’m not going to lie, the end of the year and holiday season has me reflecting on all the memories we’ve made in 2019. • We’ve really done so many things this year. We went on 2 BIG vacations, finished a kitchen remodel, had some birthdays, got the whole family together a few times, and I’m sure countless other things I am forgetting to mention. • 2019 was a great year for us. Going into 2020 the only resolutions I’m making are to live in the moment and always look for something to be thankful for. I hope 2020 brings you as much joy and happiness and 2019 brought us. #soimamomnow #happyfamily #newyearsresolutions #fatherandson • • • • • • • #mommyhood #mommylife #joyfulmamas #momwin #magicofchildhood #momlifestyle #inbeautyandchaos #getoutdoors #explorewildly #adventurethatislife #greettheoutdoors #outsideculture #capturingmoments #honsetlyparents #heaventhrumylens #mynameismama #momentslikethese #seekthesimplicity #childhoodeveryday #playoutside #littleexplorer #freerangekids #raiseawildchild #letthemexplore #kidswhoexplore #adventuresofchildren

San Diego was a nice little getaway. Fall and winter are probably the most chaotic times in the Shehadeh family. • Whenever we go on vacation we always talk about our 3 highs and 1 low. This vacation Abe and I had the same highs. 1. The beach days were fantastic! 2. Bike riding around Coronado (which we didn’t take any pics or videos of... living in the moment I guess 🤷🏼‍♀️) 3. Watching M enjoy the vacation. We went to AZ in April, and it was amazing, but this time M was so excited about everything, talking up a storm, and just being the happiest toddler on the plant. ❤️ The one bad... getting rear ended within the first 24 hours. We really thought the vacation was going to be horrible after that. • Now when we get home we are going to start the potty training journey. Wish us luck. 😬🤞 #soimamomnow #visitsandiego #vacationmode #toddleradventures • • • • • • #adventurers #justgo #adventurelife #adventureon #momblogger #bloggermom #momblog #mommyblogger #freerangekids #raiseawildchild #letthemexplore #kidswhoexplore #littleexplorer #adventuresofchildren #magicofchildhood #momlifestyle #capturingmoments #heaventhrumylens #wildandbravelittles #childhoodeveryday #motherhoodintheraw #mommylifestyle #thisismotherhood #momlifestyle

A few weeks ago I was watching @ashleyrosereeves on stories and something she said really struck me deep down. Basically she said “if you don’t get in the swimsuit and play with your kids this summer they are still going to make memories... but you won’t be in any of them.” • I don’t know about you, but even thinking about that makes me want to cry! I might not be back to my pre-baby weight, or the same size I was in high school, and I definitely don’t look like any of the models that grace the covers of magazines... But you know, that’s ok. • So I am going to be the mom who embraces the swimsuit to make memories! I have a husband who loves me no matter my size, and a little boy who couldn’t careless what size I am. So here’s to all the moms who still put on their swimsuits and make those memories with the people they love the most! #soimamomnow #bodypositive #makememories #summerbody • • • • • • • • #momsofinstagram #mommyhood #mommylife #motherhoodunplugged #joyfulmamas #uniteinmotherhood #momblogger #bloggermom #momblog #mommyblogger #motherhoodintheraw #bodypositivity #mommylifestyle #thisismotherhood #momlifestyle #mombodlove #ootd #styleinspiration #wearitloveit #whatiwear #lookoftheday #personaldevelopment #powerofnow #changeyourmindset #mindsetiseverything
