Hey Kendrick, go stand still for a picture real quick.

How’s this, mom?
Great. 🤷🏼‍♀️ #sundayjamesgang

LOOK WHAT SANTA DELIVERED TODAY!! We are getting so close to launching this baby, coming at you Jan. 1! #momupbook

I'd like to say I'm a "recovering perfectionist" but that would probably still be a stretch. If you read Mom Up, you'll hear all about my struggles with perfectionism -- And I bet many of you can relate. We feel this intense pressure to be the perfect mom, but I'm encouraging us to step into more that God has for us as moms -- ABUNDANT MOTHERHOOD!

Hiiiiii 👋🏼 For those of you that don't know me, or that do and need a refresher - I thought I'd hop on today and do a quick intro. I'm not actually canoeing in the ocean today with my people but I wish I was.

Here are 3 fun facts about me:

1. I used to be an event planner before I was a mom, writer, and all the things.
2. I get nauseous at the smell of broccoli and seafood — a side effect of my first pregnancy and it still bothers me 9 years later.
3. I have a book coming out Jan 1st! If you’re a mom, know a mom or have a mom - you should go preorder it 😉

Ok - your turn. Tell me a fun fact about you!

I ask a lot of questions and blind faith doesn't always come easily to me. But the fact of the matter is this -- we can trust God's promises to us and we can believe when He breathes into us His love.

This boy and his coffee...the love is REAL. (Don't judge me...there's no actual coffee in there but he doesn't know that!!) Every time we leave the house together he says "Mama, we go get COFFEE?" God knew what He was doing when He made Kendrick mine. ❤️☕️ #kendrickdjames #adoption #adoptionisrad #coffee #motherhoodunplugged #childhoodunplugged

Guys, I know you're over there shopping your little hearts out on Amazon. And I KNOW asking you to buy one more thing is a lot. But this little book will bring refreshment to your tired and weary soul, it will give you hope in the chaos, and it's the PERFECT way to start the new year. Just stick this baby in your cart as a gift to yourself, and it will arrive a week after Christmas when it launches 1/1/19!

#momupbook #thrivinginthechaos #motherhood #whatimreading

These memories are worth every moment when I'm tired to my bones at the end of the day. When I think I can't take another moment of the chaos, and the noise and bad attitudes might do me in --- I get a little glimpse of the "it's all worth it" and I'm so grateful I get a front row seat to it all.

It's been a wild month. We spent a week in the Caribbean and came home and got a little bit of actual snow -- just enough to dust our heads (which is a lot for Texas!) It's been exhausting, but full of so much joy. We've always dreamed of showing our kids more of the world outside what they know and we are so incredibly grateful we've finally had the opportunity to do so. (And guys -- look for "kids sail free cruises" from Royal Caribbean, it's a STEAL!!)

Three weeks from today this little book hits the world and I CANNOT WAIT to share it with you!! Hurry and pre-order now! What a journey we will take together as we chase after abundance and give God control over our motherhood. ❤️ #momupbook

This weekend we were so tired from all the traveling lately, and I was supposed to go out of town again Saturday morning for a lunch date with some of my launch team -- but it SNOWED. IN TEXAS. I missed hugging my launch team girls, but I think God was saying - "Enjoy this." We watched Christmas movies, ate snowflakes and drank way too much hot chocolate. It was just the weekend we needed to snuggle and soak in some good family rest. Sometimes it takes a 24 hour "Texas blizzard" to get us to slow down and soak it all in. ❤️❄️

I haven't posted a #sundayjamesgang pic in a while with all of our traveling adventures lately! But we are home until Christmas, hip hip hooray! Happy Sunday, only two more until CHRISTMAS!!! 🎄

This is never not funny...because it's SO true. Who else is really more of an Amazon Prime mom and could never really got on board with Pinterest? 🤣 I finished up my Christmas shopping from the comfort of my couch yesterday thanks to AP 🙌🏽 And a shameless plug - while you're out there doing all your Christmas shopping on Amazon, throw a copy of MOM UP in your cart! It's only available for pre-order for 3 more weeks and those pre-orders are super important! #momupbook
