HOW WAS YOUR WEEKEND… I promised the girls the HOW WAS YOUR WEEKEND… I promised the girls the pumpkin patch and delivered this weekend. Chloé even picked out a pumpkin that we brought home but I have a confession, I have no idea what to do next with it. I’ve never carved or painted one before. Any tips on what to do with a large pumpkin siting on our counter??? Have a great week and please tell me the easiest thing to do with a pumpkin!!! #astoriainheels #pumpkinpatch #miamistyleinfluencer #miamimomblogger #miamimom #browngirls #browngirlswhoblog #fallseason #fallactivities #workingmom #mondayvibes #momlife
I ALMOST FORGOT ABOUT THE HUMIDITY… Getting dre I ALMOST FORGOT ABOUT THE HUMIDITY… Getting dressed and putting makeup on is a whole different process from being up north. Thankful #rmsbeautygiftedme @rmsbeauty their primer which keeps my makeup looking fresh. I forgot how quickly your makeup will just melt off and raccoon eyes are my worse enemy. You don’t need a lot either, just 1-2 pumps and it’s goes on smooth. Once it dries, apply foundation as usual. No more raccoon eyes, everything stays put! You can find this at @sephora now! Now if I can figure out how to handle these stray hairs??? #rmsbeautygiftedme #complimentaryfromrmsbeauty #makeupprimer #naturalbeauty #organic #momstyle #mombeauty#astoriainheels #reevolveprimer #rmsbeautyprimer #browngirls
DAUGHTER DAUGHTER… I’m a bit late but I just DAUGHTER DAUGHTER… I’m a bit late but I just saw it was #nationaldaughtersday. You would think I would be on top of these things. Well, I sometimes feel like these two little ones ravage my soul and make me question life 🤦🏽‍♀️but in the end, I couldn’t imagine life any other way. They have changed me in ways I never expected and I love them so very much!!! I still look at them and think to myself…I can’t believe i have two daughters and oh how lucky I am to have them! #astoriainheels #mommydaughter #mommyandmephotoshoot #daughterday #toddlerlove #miamimom #sflmombloggers
WHAT A DIFFERENCE A MONTH MAKES… It was just a WHAT A DIFFERENCE A MONTH MAKES… It was just a month ago that I had been going on 18 months of working from home while my girls were home with me. That also included helping my four year old with remote school and keeping up with the little one as she had me spinning my wheels non stop. Combine that with everything else from this past year, moving, finding jobs, studying, lack of understanding from others, I felt like I was losing it…no, I think I did lose it. Earlier this year, I was fortunate to have support through work that allowed me to talk to someone when things felt overwhelming but there were changes with that which meant starting from scratch with someone else. I held off but that probably wasn’t the best decision and some days were more difficult than expected. Fortunately, with changes in scenery, going for walks, supportive friends, the girls starting school, and letting go of things i can’t control, there has definitely been a shift. It’s an ongoing process, but one I’m definitely willing to work at. It’s easy to become overwhelmed and think things won’t change. As working moms, we are so focused on positive outcomes at work and try to have everything fall in line in all other aspects as well but sometimes it is beyond our control. It feels like it is hard because it is hard and we are stronger than we may feel at that moment. It’s okay to have those moments where you don’t feel in control but know it will get better. Pick up the phone, you don’t have to handle things on your own! Do you have a go to for times like this? I’m here for you. #astoriainheels #mentalhealth #workingmom #womenofcolor #momhealth #mentalhealthisimportant #consciousliving #workingmomlife #wfhlife #miamimoms #miamimomblogger #sflbloggers #southfloridablogger #browardmom

TO LET THEM LEAP OR NOT…. Motherhood is a combi TO LET THEM LEAP OR NOT…. Motherhood is a combination of letting your kids do things on their own and grow while also wanting to take care of their every need and protect them from everything! Sending Chloé to school for the first time was daunting to me but she handled it like a pro. I guess I’ve always worried since she had a delay with her speech but once she got comfortable, she became much more expressive. I worried she would be shy but not at all. She is so open to meeting friends and speaks to everyone. I also think back to when I was young and remember how shy I was. I could never go up to anyone back then. I’m happy that she is definitely more fearless than I ever was!!!! I just have to let her jump!!!! #astoriainheels #houseofabraham #miamimoms #miamiinfluencer #southfloridamoms #browardmoms #miramarmoms #preklife #girlmomlife #indocaribbean #brownmoms #guyanese #trini #haitiangirl #biracial #biracialbabies #workingmoms #workingmama #wfhmom
