Date night on a Wednesday! 🖤 My husband got back from traveling this afternoon and I was so happy to see him walk through that door we decided to go out and spend some time together. When your partner and best friend is away, nothing like grabbing a drink and some apps to catch up. 🥂🖤💋 #happyhumpday🐫 #datenight #momtruth #bekindtooneanother #momofthree #myhonestmotherhood . . . . . . . . . . . #motherhoodunplugged #motherhood #motherhoodsimplified #dailyparenting #parenthood #motherhoodinspired #mymotherhood #motherhoodthroughinstagram #motherhoodunited #motherhoodmoments #motherhoodthroughig #thisismotherhood #momof3 #motherhoodinstyle #motherhoodlife #momlife #momentsinmotherhood #igmotherhood #unitedinmotherhood #momlifebelike #momlifestyle #Momstyle #Ootdinspo #ootdfashion

Fashion week in NYC and dinner with the love of my life. #lifeisgood Fun fact - my husband and I were set up on a blind date! 😳🙈🥂 September marks 11 years so this was before Tinder and Hinge and whatever dating apps existed. We did it the old school way... when blind dates weren’t that cool. His aunt and my mom had the idea of setting us up. I took a year off from college to pursue music in NYC and I was miserable living at home while all my friends went back to college. I felt lonely! As the story goes, my mom saw his aunt at the gym and the rest is history. Tom’s aunt had the brilliant idea of introducing me and her nephew because he lived in NYC (where I was performing and recording) and thought it would be a fun way for me to meet new people, and for Tom to be a gentleman and show me around the city. So with a little persuasion, I agreed to meet him. WELL on my way into grand central to meet Tom, I had a major freak out on the train! Like I was frantically texting my mom and friends “What am I doing? Why am I doing this? I don’t need to be set up... this is so embarrassing!! What if he’s weird or this is awkward?! I’m turning around!!!” Somewhere btw Larchmont and Harlem, I decided once I got into grand central, I was going to just take the next train right back home. So when the train arrived, I walked right over to the train schedules. As I was looking for the next train, I saw this hot guy in my peripheral staring at me. I looked his way and it was Tom! We both knew what each other looked like because of good ol’ Facebook. Since he caught my eye and waved, I knew I couldn’t just run 🤣 so I walked up to him and gave him a big awkward hug. He made a joke and I laughed and I just had a really good feeling so decided to go through with the date. Afterwards (the date itself is another fun story for another time), he dropped me back off at Grand Central and I called my mom. She was asleep and was caught off guard cause it was late so she frantically answered the phone and said “what happened?! Are you ok?!” I responded in this gitty voice, “I just met the man I’m going to marry.” ❤️ #soulmates #lovestory

After dropping the girls off at their schools, I spent the morning with my little man at our favorite place wishing time would slow down just a little... 💙☕️☀️🌊 #staylittleforever #momlife #parenthood
