makes setting up restrictions easy by taking out a lot of the access from the beginning. No internet browser, no social media. They have access to Pinwheel GPT, a kid friendly AI app, to ask questions and do the research they may need to use internet access for!

I love that my daughter has independence at swim meets to let me know where she is and how she’s doing, but the distractions aren’t there. She’s present and active with her team. No scrolling, no being antisocial!

This has been a great introduction to phone technology for us and I’m thankful to have it as she heads to middle school next year!

Beau also had his very first day of school this week. He took the photo with the board first then realized what was happening when I put his backpack on!

I’m pleased to report that today was his 3rd day and he had no tears. He wasn’t thrilled at first but he grabbed his puppy and walked to his teacher so I’ll take it!

I’m so thankful for a wonderful Mothers Day Out and Preschool program that takes such great care of and loves on my babies!

✨Did your littles adjust well to school their first year?
(Chloe had a ROUGH first year and it took months for her to finally adjust! Clearly Beau is the third child!)

Happy second day of school to my Brody Bear!

Yesterday was his first day, but Nonna took him while we were away. He loved it and the smile on his face says it all.

Swipe to see his backpack that he is completely and utterly obsessed with. And the final pic is Brody and his bestie Cora who was less than thrilled to be there, but Brody gave her a hug to cheer her up!

Disney Day 4at Animal Kingdom!

We rode every ride and met so many characters! Lunch at Tusker House was a first for me and I 100% recommend it! I also recommend rope dropping The Avatar Flight of Passage to avoid paying for it. And as always, PhotoPass is the best!!
