Rock Gingham Style With Your Mini

May 23, 2019 By Kari Leave a Comment

The flowiest gingham dress (with pockets!) and a perfectly placed cut-out! Plus, adorable gingham options for your little one!

Holy busy May and June! Are you feeling that? All the activities, field trips, end of the year class parties – it’s nuts! We’re having fun, but are very much looking forward to a more relaxed summer.

In previous years, we’ve planned a bunch of day trips and getaways, but I’ve often found myself longing to be back at home. Living in a climate where the hot weather is only around for a few months, it’s nice to be in your own outdoor space enjoying the fruits of your labour! It felt like we were working so hard to beautify our yard, then barely spending time there. That’s not happening this year! While we do have a few trips on the calendar, we’re mostly sticking around home, indulging in the simpler things. Those are usually the things kids enjoy the most anyway, right? BBQ’s, park days, and a whole lot of gardening! (I have two fun gardening posts coming out next week, where I’ll be sharing a ton of tips for growing and including your kids in the process! Be sure to check back for those.)

Wyatt’s Look

I know, I know. White pants on a toddler (insert face in palm emoji)! I know they’re going to get dirty, so I went with a less expensive option. These loafers are our absolute fave for dressing up! They are SO affordable and come in a whole bunch of colours. We have white, pink, and blue.

My Look

I absolutely LOVE this black gingham dress from Elle’s Closet Boutique! I’m drawn to cutout dresses, but typically that cutout is landing in a place I don’t really want exposed. LOL! This one hits near the top of my ribs about one inch below my girls. It still feels classy while being trendy and fun. I especially love the mid-length of this dress. It’s flowy and comfy, and YES – it has pockets!

What do you do when other kids are mean to your ki What do you do when other kids are mean to your kid? How do you handle it? No matter what season you're in with parenting or how old your kids are, I would love to hear your tactics! Please share below in the comments and we can all learn from each other👇👇. #pinkshirtday

Even when Wyatt was littler and would sometimes get rejected at the park when he asked to play, it would shatter my heart. 😫

I was bullied in high school pretty bad. My aunt stepped in one time and regulated some mean girls. Shared the (now) hilarious story on my Stories.❤❤

Wyatt's cute tee is from @deuxpardeuxkids, I'm wearing my @smashtess sweetheart roper and that heart print out is @justinema's free printable Kindness Challenge! (Looks like I have some catching up to do)! 🤣
See that cute little face photo bombing in the bac See that cute little face photo bombing in the back? 😊 He helps with my mental health on a daily basis. I know what each person needs varies, but for me, getting alone time to walk the dogs has been key in managing my anxiety and stress (especially this past year).

I believe investing in mental health initiatives is more important than ever. I’m so happy to be partnering with @atbfinancial for a really meaningful campaign called #ATBUp.

Each weekday from March 1-12, one more simple, FUN social challenge will be presented. When you complete and share on social using #ATBUp, @atbfinancial will donate $1 to @mentalhealthab!

I’ll be heading up two challenges—and including Moses 🐶 and Monroe 🐶. I hope you’ll join me! 😊💛

Visit up.atb.com to enter to win prizes, and get more info about the challenges and Alberta’s Mental Health Foundation.
I love you, my Valentine.❤ I love traveling with I love you, my Valentine.❤ I love traveling with you. I miss traveling. The end. Happy Valentine's Day!
