Doo-ing Good in the Neighborhood!

Thank you to Warner Bros. for sponsoring this post. Scooby-Doo and the Mystery Inc. Gang have teamed up with generationOn, the youth family division of Points of Light, to inspire, equip and mobilize kids, parents and Scooby-Doo fans to create meaningful change in their communities.

Our crew got to join in on some #DooGood fun this past weekend at the Mall of America! Ari and Oskar had a blast meeting Scooby-Doo, got their hands dirty in planting some herbs, colored letters with some big message and most importantly learned about helping others and how we can all make a difference in the community!

Did you know that 1-in-6 kids in the U.S. don't know where their meal is coming from? Yeah, me neither! As a mom of two growing boys, I can't imagine seeing any kid go hungry! Here are some ideas for us to solve this hunger problem!

1. Write letters to Congress with your kids to help bring awareness of hunger problem in our community!  Feeding America put together a super easy template to tell Congress about hunger in your community! You can search who your representative is by simply putting in your zip code here! 

2. Participate in community gardens! Find a community garden near you and volunteer!

3. Donate! We bought some goodies at the Box Lunch store at MOA and each 10 dollars you spend, a meal is donated through the local food bank. It's a win-win! (i.e. Second Harvest Heartland in St. Paul was the local food bank beneficiary from this particular Box Lunch location!) Of course, you can just donate money, too! Every $1 dollar donation = 10 meals!

4. Join our crew in the Doo Good campaign at ScoobyDooGood.com Because together, there is no issue we can't solve!

I was selected by Warner Bros. to participate in the Doo Good Campaign. The content and opinions expressed here are all my own.

Nursing Mama Wardrobe

Gone are the days I get to try on multiple outfits before deciding what to wear for the day. I've got exactly "ain't-nobody-got-time-for-that" minutes to get ready before rushing off to school, baseball for tiny humans or playdates. It's all about quick and easy these days. And prerequisite for any outfit I choose - must be able to whip out my boobs as fast as humanly possible. Oskar likes to eat.

With my last pregnancy, I really had fun dressing up my baby bump. I also knew that I would be nursing for at least a year. So I was intentional about investing in pieces that can easily transition from pregnancy to postpartum/nursing. These wrap dresses are so easy to slip on and make me feel fabulous while nursing in public and in general! They are both from Pink Blush and I am wearing a size S!

Let me know what you guys think! I may do a part 2 or keep sharing some style stuff if you find it interesting!

These images are a handful out of hundreds that my sweet (+ patient) husband took. Most of them look like this...
