I’m almost halfway done updating the first floor

I’m almost halfway done updating the first floor of the house and I’m so geeked about it! 😬⁣
⁣
|Save this post, and answer the question at the end|⁣
⁣
My sitting room, living room, and home office are complete and I’m obsessed. The sitting room, aka “the white room” is the first room you see when you walk through the door so I wanted it to pop. Y’all love this room, and I do too lol. It’s so elegant, simple luxe, and serene.⁣
⁣
The living room is also a vibe. I wanted it to be chic, but still comfortable and “lived in”. So, I did all gray (I love gray 😫) with pops of golds and silver accents throughout. The bay windows and high hung curtains are my fave part of my living room. They add the perfect pop of natural light and the plants take it to the next level.⁣
⁣
My home office... 😩😍😍 I love it so much! It’s super glam with mixed metals and a busy accent wallpaper. I spend most of my time here, so I wanted it to really speak to my personal style.⁣
⁣
What’s left? My entry way/ gallery wall, my guest bathroom, my kitchen (I’m painting the cabinets), my dining room, and my wet bar. I also want to remove the wall that separates my kitchen and dining room so I can really host how I want to. I’ll do a full tour of this floor when everything is complete!!⁣
⁣
Are you obsessed with home decor like I am? Which of these rooms is your favorite? #swipeleft⬅️

I smile because you’re my daughter, I laugh because there’s nothing you can do about it 🙃🤣⁣

Y’all remember those #blackmamasayings we heard all our life? Have y’all started using them on your kids yet?⁣
⁣
1. You got McDonald’s money?⁣
⁣
2. What part of no don’t you understand?⁣
⁣
3. I’m not one of your lil friends.⁣
⁣
4. Who I look like, Boo Boo the Fool?!⁣
⁣
5. Don’t slam no doors in my house!⁣
⁣
6. Stop all that crying before I give you something to cry about.⁣
⁣
7. Because I said so, that’s why.⁣
⁣
8. I hope you know that school work like you know them songs.⁣
⁣
9. If someone hits you first, you hit them back.⁣
⁣
10. Ask ya daddy! (My personal favorite) 😂⁣
⁣
Let’s be honest, there’s no key to motherhood. There’s no way to do it all right. All you can do is the best you can. Oh, and look cute while doing it. I promise that’ll make it a little easier.⁣
⁣
Happy Thursday, y’all!

If you don’t take accountability for the things

If you don’t take accountability for the things going wrong in your life, then guess what? Things are gonna keep going wrong.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Let’s say you have a great job with great paying benefits. Yet, you keep coming in late, your performance is poor, your time management is lacking, and your customer service is trash, so they let you go. Don’t say “𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘎𝘰𝘥 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘦” in place of “𝘋𝘢𝘮𝘯, 𝘐 𝘮𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘶𝘱.” 𝐒𝐢𝐬, 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐟𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐚𝐠, 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐝𝐢𝐝.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Sometimes, the reason is you. So stop shifting blame in situations you know you were the cause of. I know some people don’t want to hear this, but you either make yourself accountable, or you will be made accountable by your circumstances.⁣⁣
⁣
Share this to your stories- somebody needs to see it! 👀🤷🏾‍♀️⁣

Happy Wednesday!

Take care of your body... it’s the only one you’ll ever have. #fableticspartner

New month, new goals! As y’all know, I’ve been doing a run challenge every month since May and it’s been a game changer for me. More than how it’s changed my overall health and wellness, I’m so happy that almost 100 ladies have since joined the challenge and have been running with me these last few months. And these ladies don’t play! It’s only 3 days into the month and the miles are though the roof!⁣
⁣
If you want to join the challenge this month, check out my “Ladies Run” highlight for the info! If you’re not a runner, jog. If you’re not a jogger, walk. The goal is completion. That’s it! Let’s get active and get these bodies in shape! I’ll also be doing the @capricurves “Drop the Fat, Keep the Curves” challenge this month, so I’m really pushing it to the limit. I’m always motivated to workout when I have cute workout gear, so shout out to @fabletics for always keeping me laced in the best athleisure gear on the market! #moveinfabletics #fableticspartner⁣
⁣
Let me know below what your goals are for the month and let’s crush them! 🙌🏾

Cooking with Court, brunch style in 2.5 hours! Are y’all ready!?⁣
⁣
We will be making my ‘Not Your Average’ Shrimp & Grits and sipping on some mimosas!! I hope you got your ingredients to cook with me. If you can’t cook this time, still join the live at 2pm. I’m about to start getting. See y’all soon!

Praise report: We finally decided on Sanai’s schooling for this semester!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾⁣

Just when I was getting anxiety over what we we were gonna do, God revealed a plan. Sanai will officially start Pre-k in a couple of weeks! *𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘺 𝘥𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦* We decided to go the homeschool route and I cannot tell y’all how excited I am. My neighbor and I are getting together with two other mothers in our neighborhood to provide a feasible homeschool option for our kids. We will alternate houses and each of us will be responsible for hosting one week out of the month. ⁣
⁣
We hired an amazing teacher from one of the best Christian academies in the area and she will travel to our homes to teach the kids. She has over 30 years of experience, home schooled her daughter through 3rd grade, and comes highly recommended. We had a zoom call with her last week and it instantly felt like the right fit. We will do an open house at each of the four homes next weekend to see the living quarters and where the kids will be learning. I’m so excited!⁣
⁣
Sanai doesn’t meet the Sept 1 cutoff to start pre-k in public school this fall, so this option is the best for our family. I love that Sanai will be getting specialized learning with Christian principles in a small setting. I can’t wait to see how she thrives. I’ll def keep y’all posted on the process. And just know, when it’s my week to host, the kids are getting gourmet meals for lunch! 😂⁣
⁣
Have you decided on a schooling situation for your little one(s)? Oh.. and this picture perfect.. or freaking perfect?! 😩😍

Oh don’t mind me, I’m just ready to host my ne

Oh don’t mind me, I’m just ready to host my next backyard BBQ in style!⁣⁣
⁣
No telling when we will be back out and about, but that just gives us all the more reason to gather at home. I have so many new outfits to wear, but I’ll just keep being the hostess with the mostest and wear them at home 💁🏽‍♀️⁣⁣
⁣
Can we take a moment to talk about these @spanx skinny jeans?! Y’all!!! As soon as I put these on, life made! They’re the sleekest, sexiest, most comfortable pair of jeggings I’ve ever worn. If you’ve been thinking about splurging on a pair of @spanx, this is it! Don’t say I never told you nothing 😉⁣ #spanxstyle ⁣
⁣
I know I’m not the only one tired of cute outfits going to waste! Who else is showing up to the backyard BBQ ready to slay?! 👀

Did y’all see my stories yesterday? It was chronicles with Sanai and she was a hand full lol.⁣
⁣
Everyone was like “𝘰𝘮𝘨 𝘴𝘩𝘦’𝘴 𝘴𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘢 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘭𝘢𝘥𝘺” or “𝘰𝘮𝘨 𝘴𝘩𝘦’𝘴 𝘴𝘰 𝘤𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘺” and I’m just like... what if I created a little human more “bougie” than me? Lawd help me 🙏🏾 Her personality blows me away. She’s so much like me, until she’s not lol, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Being able to spend so much time at home with her has been such a blessing in disguise. Yes in disguise because being a full time mom, working a full time job, running a full time blogging business, and tryna stay fine while doing it knocked me over the head a few times lol.⁣
⁣
No moral of the story today. Just another gorgeous picture from our family shoot, and a shoutout to God for blessing me so deeply with this one.⁣
⁣
Isn’t this picture amazing?! 😩😍 Happy hump day gramily! ❤️⁣
