Recently watched Ted the piggie for a few days. Colton wasn’t too sure about him at first, but he warmed up quickly & is pretty much obsessed now. He tells him goodnight & good morning, feeds him his hay while reminding, “hey buddy, eat all your asparagus!” He also called him a baby panda at first...😂He took the top picture himself & is very proud. 🐹😍 #guineapig #guineapigsofinstagram #guineapigsofig #guineapiglove #coltonnicholas #kidsandpets #petsitting #pnw #pnwkids #boymom #momofboys #momlife

Evening hike, dinner up the mountain, catching grasshoppers, making memories 💚

At H’s first day of bike camp yesterday he needed a helping hand and today, he was off! Pedalling all on his own - no training wheels! Proud mum alert! 🙋‍♀️ @pedalheads

I hope that one day, they will be as proud as I am of their own reflections in the water. #pnw #pnwwonderland #pnwphotographer #pnwphotographer #portaitphotography #portait #pnwkids #oregon #oregoncoast #ocean #water #beach #coast #sand #reflection #happy #summer #adventurekids #wanderlustkids #travel #explorekids

My little #mamasboy . He always always wants to be by my side, as I do my @kayla_itsines Routine, he’s on top of me or under me, or pulling at me. It cute ..... His favorite phrase is “mommy too”. I think it’s so cute, and so proud that was his first words, and I get annoyed because, what about daddy too? . . . #lastchildsyndrome #iloveit #pnwkids #boymom #littlestoriesofmylife #familyday #oregoncoast #hecompletesme #ilovebeingaboymom #takemetothecoast #cannonbeach #ecolastatepark #theseaitcallsme #hemakesmehappy

A hot afternoon spent at Franklin Falls. Great short hike, and what a reward to end it standing here as the wind sprays cold water on us and to watch this moving rainbow. Then, we took our shoes off and waded in the creek. We were all giddy , but this child was ecstatic. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #pnwfamily #lifewiththree #thatsdarling #letthekids #seattlemom #pnwlife #pnwkids #seattledad #washingtonstate #washingtonstateparks #childhoodunplugged #letthembelittle #themagicofchildhood #momtogs #unitedinmotherhood #rainbow #findarainbow #waterfalls

Juan De Fuca Provincial Park on the west coast of southern Vancouver Island is CLEARLY an awesome place to relax as evidence from this awesome capture by @pascalsaxby ⠀ ⠀ According to @pascalsaxby there are loads of beaches, exploration spots, and even a hidden waterfall ( umm yes please!). It's a kid's paradise! ⠀ ⠀ Located just a little more than an hour from Victoria this beautiful park is worth exploring if you're in the area and have kids in tow and you're looking for a little adventure! ⠀ ⠀ Have you been to Juan De Fuca Provincial Park?

Spread your glitter not your negativity! Today I woke up feeling so excited and had so much gratitude. About everything. I decided to throw out kindness like confetti so I texted someone just to tell them how much they mean to my life, then nominated someone for MVP at work and got to see them get recognized in our staff meeting bc of it. I smiled at strangers on my walk and chatted with people while getting coffee. Then I got a message from a sweet friend and all the kindness I spread today came back to me times a million! One of those life affirming, girl power messages that remind you that you’re living the life you’re supposed to ❤️ So practice gratitude. Be kind to everyone, encourage and love. And THAT is truly living your best life ❤️ #TheHappyPath . . . . #fitmom #tiumom #tiugirl #tiuteam #fitmomsofig #momswithmuscle #healthyandhappy #happyhealthyhumble #momsofinstagram #livingmybestlife #loveistheanswer #madeformore #momswhoworkout #momlifestyle #practicekindness #girlmom #tiuseattle #wifey #joyfulmamas #pnwmom #pnwkids #notstopping #strongnotskinny #fitjourney #gratitude #highvibesonly #momminainteasy #girlgains #eatwellbewell

Sup, Portland? It was finally cool enough this morning for this cool dude and I to venture out for a mom-Reece day. We started our day doing some @j29events wedding work downtown but made a quick stop to @pipsoriginal donuts followed by some fun water time at Jamison Fountains.

Looking at photos and planning our next camping trip already. I love that we can travel for days when we camp without bringing any toys aside from things like bubbles, nets, magnifying glasses, beach stuff, and books to help identify plants and animals. J lost her only pencil, and the last night at camp they both had an hour of fun making “charcoal pencils” by dipping wood sticks in amber while we tried to get the baby to sleep. Also love that kids can be so independent at campgrounds. They were so proud of themselves walking on trails without us and going to wash hands or get water. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #pnwlife #pnwkids #pnwfamily #pnwonderland #pnwisbest #seattlekids #seattlemom #seattledad #seattlefamily #campingwithkids #hikingwithkids #kidswhotravel #kidswhoexplore #childhoodunplugged #themagicofchildhood #unitedinmotherhood #candidchildhood #letthekids #letthembelittle #raisingboys #raisinggirls #lifewiththree #campinglife #washingtonstate #washingtonstateparks #documentyourdays #thatsdarling #kidsplay

Mine was from my mother in law. She told me, “Honey, this is their world, and you’re just living in it, so stop trying to fix everything. Sit back and enjoy the ride.” She also told me, “No knows your child better than anyone. Always trust your gut instinct.” The absolute best advice I was ever given. 😅❤️👏🏻 - - - - - - - - - - - - - #pnw #pnwlife #pnwonderland #pnwcollective #pnwmom #pnwkids #littlesister #morrisbabe2 #morrisfamily #holdthemoment #motherland #motherhood #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodrising #motherhoodalive #motherhoodintheraw #mommylife #girlmom #girlmama #girlmomma #babygirl #sisters #fitmom #fitness #fitnessmotivation #fitnessjourney #fitfam #healthylifestyle #healthy #healthyliving

*gushy mom post* everyday I'm reminded that my tiny little baby isn't so tiny anymore and he definitely isn't a baby but in fact a little boy. recently I've felt the end of toddlerhood creeping up on us and the next stage of a being little-big boy is becoming more obvious 👦🏼 None of our days lack excitement, love or challenges and the best part is that we get to experience it all together. My mama heart is slightly breaking knowing that in less that 6 months I'll have a 4 year old. Four year olds seem so grown to me, next is five and then they're 15 and practically ready to move out. The phrase, "The days are long but the years are short" is incredibly applicable with childhood so we must remember to to cherish our days and be in the moments with our children. I'm a lucky mom, that's a fact💜

Raspberry picking was a big hit, and just as photogenic as I’d imagined 😂. We’re grateful to the family picking next to us for their excellent jam advice too (pink raspberries for extra pectin, freezer jam for easiness).

Life has been kicking my butt ever since we got back from our trip to California. We were only gone for a few days, but I still feel all out of sorts and can't seem to find my groove. 🤷‍♀️ Here's to hoping I can slide back into a rhythm soon! Hopefully some cooler summer temps coming soon will help me find some normalcy. 😥 🤞 On a side note aren't these girlies adorable?! Little miss is sporting pig tails for the first time. 😍

Initially when I was prepping to take this photo, I immediately wanted all the kids to pose on that tree trunk but when I look at it now, I realize this was the best moment of the day. Each kid doing something different (rock throwing, climbing, splashing in the river) while at the same time, appreciating the outdoors together. 💕. Thank you @cathylee2431 for this captured moment.

E L E V E N M O N T H S. I’m a bit in denial that my munchkee is going to start morphing into a toddler soon. 😭😍 It’s my favorite watching his personality start to shine more and more. He is all about the ‘YAY!’ followed by 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼, just learned how to say ‘Hi!’ (in the sweetest high pitch voice), loves to eat just about anything, has three teeth, and his hair is curling up around the fringe. He is Mamas-boy but loves all his fam, loves being outside, and still hasn’t figured out sleeping through the night. We sure do love our Booms.

Today on my stories I shared that I’m working really hard on being more eco conscious. I’m embarrassed to admit this is something I’ve never put enough thought or intention into. Over the past few weeks we’ve been focusing on using less plastic. I’ve swapped some items and can’t wait to share with you all how we’re reducing our carbon footprint! For now we’re taking small steps and learning as we go! With that said- I’d love to hear your suggestions or ways you’ve started going green and consuming less! I’m totally open to suggestions- so let’s hear them! 🌏 🍃 #TheHappyPath . . . . #fitmom #tiumom #tiugirl #tiuteam #fitmomsofig #momswithmuscle #healthyandhappy #happyhealthyhumble #momsofinstagram #savetheplanet #oneearth #madeformore #momswhoworkout #momlifestyle #goinggreen #girlmom #tiuseattle #saveearth #joyfulmamas #pnwmom #pnwkids #notstopping #strongnotskinny #ecoconscious #transformationtuesday #highvibesonly #gogreen #lessplastic #eatwellbewell

The Foulmouth family has been vacationing in a state park- my happy place- this week. We have had the best time playing together, animal spotting and watching the waves from our porch. It is a reminder of how little we really need to be happy. I am trying to figure out how to bring these feelings home.

My mothering style is such that I don’t instinctually shy away from letting my children try somewhat dangerous things. For example, if one of my little kids would’ve wanted to jump off this log (which was higher than it looks in the picture), I would’ve held their hand and let them. But, I would not have cushioned their fall and they would have felt the full impact of their body weight hitting the ground. And I let them start learning this when they are babies just as soon as they are mobile. As an outdoor family I have seen the advantages of this when we’ve been in actual dangerous situations-none of my kids have panicked. (I’m the only one who has panicked in these situations! 😜)They just simply did whatever needed to be done. I can see that they have confidence in their own abilities, but they also understand their limitations and are less likely to take foolish risks. And I trust them fully to make these decisions. So many life lessons to be learned in the outdoors! 😊 . . . #pnwkids #instincts #instinctualparenting #attachmentparenting #mothering #parenting #olympicpeninsula #lowerskokomishtrail #raisingboys #wildandfreechildren #kidswhoexplore #wilderness_kids #hiking #hikingadventures #hikingwithkids #pnwadventures #adventurousspirit #adventurous #herpnwlife #herpnw

This mindful game is awesome. It is called the swamp game. A couple things it targets is balance, body awareness, calm movements and deep breaths. Then magical things like this picture happen. 💗 When it comes to the level where we move through the swamp with our eyes closed, the kids can choose to stabilize by holding onto my arm. OR your friend will just walk up and give you a hand so you feel supported in trying something new.🤸🏽‍♀️😭 . . . #kidsyoga #yogakids #miniyogi #pnwkids #pnwkidsyoga #yogatime #yogagame #optoutside #breathe #mindfulness #oregonsummer #summercamp #yogacamp #yogasummercamp #insalemoregon

It's not only children who grow, parents do too. As much as we watch to see what our children do with their lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours.

Listen, I believe you can have everything you want. Just... maybe not all at once 🤷‍♀️ Trying to do, be, and have everything you want all at once is overwhelming and crazy making 🤪 Prioritize spending your time on what is most important FIRST. For me, this looks like: 1. Scheduling my workouts ahead of time in my google calendar. I’m obsessed with the idea of wellness in service to purpose lately. I have some big, exciting, inspiring projects on my plate right now that deserve my best - and the only way to bring my A game is to take the best care of me. 💪 2. Carving out phone-free, work-free family time. I’m not going to lie there have been times where this has been really challenging. I love my work and sometimes I really don’t want to stop 🤷‍♀️ In the past, I’ve been known to throw a movie on for the kids so I could just work for a couple more hours. But ultimately, THEY are my biggest priority. Knowing that, I choose to prioritize spending *quality* time with them. ❤️ 3. Focusing on one major work project at a time. I have learned that no matter how excited I am, having multiple conflicting priorities leads to split attention, scattered/diluted energy, and rushing through my work just to get it done. When I pause to really think about it - of course that’s not the energy I want to bring to a project I love. So, instead, I’m focusing on what’s most important to me now and going deep. 🤩 Your turn! How do you prioritize what’s most important? 👇 #stopdropandmom #workfromhomelife #lifebydesign #laptoplife #inspiregreatness #daughtertime #healthyfamilies #familiesbelongtogether #girlsmatter #pnwkids #pnwcreatives #portorchard #momitforward #childhoodwonders #nothingisperfect #risetogether #emotionalwellbeing #letsgogirls #literallymylife #literalmomgoals #joyfulmoments #momlife #bossmoms #tothegirls #mindsetcoaching

Sometimes when you least expect it you find a little treasure like Barlow Park. On our way home from Bend we needed to make a pit stop to nurse the baby and found ourselves on an impromptu hike. This lush green forest with a little stream running through it and a self-guided natural history hike was a little treasure to find.

We’ve been seeing lady bugs everywhere lately! I love how little things like that can make little kids SO excited. 🐞 What exciting creatures have YOU found lately? 🦋🐛🐸 • • • #laineybug #laineysroom #childrenseemagic #childrenseemagic #flatlay #raisethemwild #raisethemkind #etsy #etsyshop #shopsmall #shoplocal #shophandmade #dontforgetdads #optoutside #oregonmade #pdxmom #pdxkids #pnwkids #kidsfashion #toddlerfashion #thehappynow #thehonestlens

Golden Ears Provincial Park, in B.C. Canada is worth exploring if you're close to Vancouver and you're looking for a wild place for your wild ones ( 📷 @lovespired). ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Golden Ears is one of the crown jewels of B.C. and if you're in Vancouver it's totally worth the 1.5 hour drive to discover the area. Named after the twin peaks that tower above the park there are plenty of fantastic kid-friendly activities include hiking, horseback riding, swimming (at gorgeous Alouette Lake), canoeing, boating AND fishing. ⠀ ⠀ Have you been to Golden Ears Provincial Park? What did you think? Add your thoughts on this adventure to help our community of adventurous PNW families! Let us know in the comments below!⠀ ⠀ Do you have an awesome Pacific Northwest kid-friendly outdoor adventure you want us to feature? DM or email us ( better yet tag us directly! ) and don't forget to tag #pnwkids to be featured! ⠀ ⠀ Thanks again to @lovespired for sharing this gorgeous photo with us!⠀ ⠀ #pnwkids #pnwkids_B.C. #pacificnorthwest #pnwonderland #getoutside #pnwdiscovered #thatpnwlife #northwestcreatives #modernoutdoors #pnwcollective #pnwexplorations #northwestisbest #PNWparadise #travelcanada #explorebc #tourismbc #beautifulbritishcolumbia #greatwhitenorth #ilovebc #bcisbeautiful #familytraveltribe #goadventuretogether #dailyviewbc #paradisecanada #enjoycanada #thecanadiancollective #canadianviews #pocket_canada #ig_great_shots_canada

I have a confession. I hate smiling and looking at the camera. And doing it by myself, terrifying. (I was the only one in the room when I took this and I still felt rediculous). But here I am, Neyssa Lee, the woman behind the camera. Do you know what I see when I look at this photo? All the baby weight (and late night snacking) sticking to my bones, and the bags from lack of sleep under my eyes. But last week I commited to a new health challenge with an awesome group of supportive women. I can say that taking time for myself, feeling my muscles work, my heart pump, and eating better already has me feeling so much better. So tell me, what's your best "how I take care of myself" tip? You never know, your idea may inspire another mama! #ClickPro #ClickinMoms #Snoqualmiefamilyphotographer #familyphotography #pnw #Snoqualmie #Issaquahfamilyphotograper #Seattlefamilyphotographer #siblinghoodlove #ourcandidlife #family #neyssaleephotography #thesincerestoryteller #dearphotographer #snapmaven #thebloomforum #hellostoryteller #enjoy_today01 #thefamilycollective #pnwkids #ladybossworkshops #lookslikefilm #seattle #motherhoodrising #canon #selfportrait #momlife

Another easy 30 minute Monday night meal... I decided on cilantro garlic-lime boneless chicken thighs, cilantro lime rice with charred corn and seasoned black beans with onions. If you can’t tell, I go through food phases and lime is killing the game for me, when it comes to flavor profile and this unbearable heat. ( 108 degrees here today) 😅 So something lite and refreshing, but homey enough to feel satisfied is what I wanted. And this recipe is kid approved and so good!! 🍗🍋🍚- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - #pnw #pnwlife #pnwonderland #pnwcollective #pnwmom #pnwkids #littlesister #morrisbabe2 #morrisfamily #holdthemoment #motherland #motherhood #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodrising #motherhoodalive #motherhoodintheraw #mommylife #girlmom #girlmama #girlmomma #babygirl #sisters #fitmom #fitness #fitnessmotivation #fitnessjourney #fitfam #healthylifestyle #healthy #healthyliving
