Instagram post 2193056272075629355_28916612 About last night ✨
.
I had the opportunity to showcase my S&D Family of Brands business, EVER and Stella and Dot, and I cannot tell you how much fun I had talking about all the things safe skincare, beauty, and trendy and timeless accessories.
.
I was in my glory chatting with other mamas about their unique skincare needs and how @everskincare can transform their skin to its most radiant and healthy self while diminishing fine lines and wrinkles, safely. .
One Momma treated herself to my favorite  backpack from @stelladot and I don’t know who was more excited...her or I… .
She was beaming with the fact that she finally found a functional, yet stunning backpack which is totally mama friendly, and its rose gold accents are 🙌🏻.
.
Seeing her so excited literally lit me up inside which reminded me that sharing all of the things I love is truly something that brings so much sparkle to my life.
.
Starting today in my private Facebook group, I will be sharing “12 Days of Sparkling Gift Ideas” where I’ll be featuring accessories, tops, safe and clean skincare and beauty products that will bring such joy to that special someone.

Instagram post 2192146839711642429_28916612 The Hubs asked me last night, “What age is the best to celebrate Christmas?”
.
The Nikola kiddies are loving all the things about the holidays!  The songs, the lights, the movies, the gift ideas, Advent calendar, finding Chippy our Elf (Brayden even showed  him how well he did his homework #imelt)
.
The Hubs went with 5 years old and I said 3-4 is also fun. .
What age do you think is magical this time of year? 🎄🎅🏻❤️

.
Decorating the Christmas tree with children goes along with baking with children... it’s a great idea in theory.. but then in reality... it’s 🤯😱🤬
.
Gooooodness... .
We only had maybe 3 ornament casualties which is less than last year 🙌🏻
.
I’m not even going to attempt my villages.. poor village people will be living as if they are in an apocalypse 🤦🏼‍♀️

Cheers to the holiday festivities! 🥂 🎄

Anyone else care to share their best excuses?!

Instagram post 2186069270507595380_28916612 💁🏼‍♀️ This mama had tears in her eyes at her daughter’s parent teacher conference today.
.
You see, I’ve been feeling soooo guilty for losing my ishhh and yelling at my babies on Saturday night... I mean, I got uuuugly.... But, it was the reminder I needed so I can say, “Well.. that isn’t how I ever want to be.. again..”
.
It’s funny how sometimes losing our cool is a good thing... it keeps us mamas in-check #imgoingwithit
.
And here it is Tuesday and I still feel bad for having an ugly mama moment, and then we go into conferences and I read this journal entry.
.
Tears....
.
My eyes welled up because she remembered the fun we had on Sunday, and not her mother losing her cool after repeating herself for about the 100th time! #thestruggleisreal

This was what I needed to see and isn’t it funny how our babies always manage to give us that reassurance just when we need it most?! ❤️ And for the record, I didn’t “lose” Jameson for too long... he decided to not go down the slide and freak me out for about 60 seconds. 🤣🤣

Instagram post 2184622176353772304_28916612 Mamas.. I’ll be honest...
.
I rarely go out by myself with these kiddies because it makes me anxious...nervous... scared...
.
First off, I’m completely outnumbered, and the fact that human trafficking is VERY real... it just plain freaks me out! .
And throw in the fact that they are indeed siblings that argue, fight, and occasionally don’t listen to one another or me... I swear, it’s like a game of roulette. .
But with The Hubs gone for a few days, and the kiddies bursting at the seams with energy on a very rainy day, I knew we needed out of the house... I needed out! .
So I took the kiddies to a monstrous indoor play park.  We’ve been there before so I knew what I was getting into and the kiddies were familiar with the surroundings. .
After 2.5 hours of running around, and none of us losing our ishhh... I call the trip a success. .
I won’t lie, I may have told them we will never go out again or see Frozen 2 if they don’t listen when I say it’s time to leave. 😉 .
Anywho... just wanted to share a proud mama moment 🙌🏻. Everyone survived and I’m hoping for an early bedtime for everyone 🤞🏻

Instagram post 2178397032081809907_28916612 Hey mama, hey! 👋
.
Quick question for you... .
Now don’t laugh... and No, it’s not a trick question...
.
Do you ever feel like your life is a bit crazy or maybe even chaotic?
.
How about when you’re running the kiddies to all their activities and trying to figure out when and what you’re going to feed them?! #crazyschedule
.
Or maybe your children argue and fight nonstop and you’re questioning your parenting #whyaretheyactingsocrazy
.
Wait... wait!! Here’s a good one- sent your child to school in pajamas for “pajama day” when in fact, pajama day is the following week?! #guilty 🤦🏼‍♀️
.
How about trying to shop with all the kiddies with you!? #purechoas
.
Yup, I’m living that crazy life but what I’m also going to tell you is to embrace it.
.
Embrace the chaos!
.
It took me a few years to finally embrace and accept it rather than feel embarrassed or ashamed.
.
You see, for those who don’t know the Nikola Clan, we can be described as a pretty lively and loud bunch to say the least.
.
I mean, I was even at the point where I asked our pediatrician if it’s “normal” to be as loud and outgoing as we are and he laughed... and I mean straight-up laughed at me.
.
So after taking-in his response and finally accepting we may be different than other families, I learned to embrace all.the.things that make us The Nikola Clan. .
I encourage you to embrace the chaos, let it be... Love your babies hard because this chaos won’t last forever❤️
.
Props to @msrachelhollis for oh so needed reminder.. keep preaching, Mama🙌🏻🙌🏻

Instagram post 2175199976362203740_28916612 Yup... This about sums up The Nikola Clan. 
Sophia, always ready for a photo 📷 
Brayden, doing everything he can to not pay attention to me because everything else is more important 🤣
And Jameson... let’s just say, 🐒 see, 🐒 do. 
These babies can take me zero to 60 in about 3.5 seconds and I can be quite the 🤯 mama, but for some reason, at the end of the day, they tell me they love me.

I swear.. I was almost in tears while laying with Sophia and B when B cuddled up and said, “I love you, mama!  Love you, so much.” And all I thought about was how I kept yelling (and it was a bit of an ugly yell 🙄) at him to calm down and not run throughout the house 🤦🏼‍♀️ while trying to cook and not burn the house down. 
Funny how our babies can say the right things when we need to hear it most ❤️
