Quick dinners are my thing! It's been awhile since I've shared a food photo on here, but I'm always sharing on my insta-story since I cook a lot during the week. Tofu stir-fry is definitely a favorite quick meal I make at least 1-2 times a month. No perfect lighting or perfect food plating here (not with a toddler that's for sure🤣 we would rather be reading books and playing with mega blocks🙌🏽), but I will try to share more of the meals I make us! Trying to keep them healthy, easy and of course delicious! • • • • • #momlife #boymom #motherhood #lifestyleblogger #mommyblogger #momblog #makemoments #thelittlethings #momsofinstagram #unitedinmotherhood #workingmom #dinnertime #quickmeals #weightwatchers #weightwatchersfreestyle #vegetarian

Happy Easter from the Orantes family!

Today was a big deal! Going back to work after a break is never fun or easy, lets be honest, but today was my first day NOT pumping at work!🙌🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽 Yessss, so happy! It was not perfect, and I did get a little uncomfortable, but I just powered through. Ben stopped taking bottles from grandmas like a month ago, so all the milk I was pumping at work I just froze plus I took advantage and cut my pumping sessions down from twice a day to once a day (quite a change from pumping like 5 times a day at one point!🤣). He's naturally weaned himself during the day, and when we get home I nurse him right away then again before bed.... soon we will be done altogether because that's what feels right for us. The whole process has been working out and feeling natural. I am so proud of myself for breastfeeding Ben for the whole first year of his life❤ and for making it work while being back at work, but glad to say I am DONE pumping🙌🏽!!! Did you/ do you pump at work, still breastfeed? How is your journey going? Let me know!💕☺️ #breastfeeding #breastfeedingmama #workingmom • • • • • #momlife #boymom #motherhood #lifestyleblogger #mommyblogger #momblog #makemoments #thelittlethings #momsofinstagram #unitedinmotherhood

The last week has been so busy and so fun! I have so many photos and realized I haven't shared any on here (well, other than insta stories, because I love insta stories.😆) Ben loved his birthday cake. This boy dug into it! We celebrated him at home with our parents and siblings. It was simple, intimate and perfect. I have a one year old, guys!😬❤ • • • • • #momlife #boymom #motherhood #lifestyleblogger #mommyblogger #momblog #makemoments #thelittlethings #momsofinstagram #unitedinmotherhood

Yesterday was my birthday, and today was Ben's 1st birthday! Thank you all so much for your warm wishes and love. We had a nice lazy morning, a good breakfast at home and then we spent the day at Disneyland. I cannot believe a year has gone by from the moment I had Ben. I don't know if I've ever shared this here, but Ben was born to the song Tennessee Whisky on my pandora station in the hospital room that night. It was just Tommy and I, and then this little guy came along, and we had absolutely no idea what we were in for. That doesn't really have anything to do with today, but it was on my mind. We love that song, and we always think of that night when it comes on. Man, a year ago! The last year, being Ben's mom has been the best, the hardest, the sweetest. He brings so much love into our home, and his chubby faced smile just melts my heart. His eyes disappear into two little lines, and his whole face lights up. He is amazing, and he is mine. I am so thankful! #oneyearold • • • • • #momlife #boymom #motherhood #lifestyleblogger #mommyblogger #momblog #makemoments #thelittlethings #momsofinstagram #unitedinmotherhood

I want to wish everyone a Happy International Women's Day. Something that has been on my mind today from seeing so many smart and strong women and baby girls on my feed is the fact that GIRLS are the future, but so are BOYS. The BOYS we raise today have the power to overcome gender stereotypes and be amazing humans and members of society too. They can be anyone they want, they can love anyone they want, and they can make this world into a better place as well. I guess this is my #boymom heart talking, but I am going to strive to help Ben become a loving, compassionate, giving, thoughtful, brave and adventurous man who respects women and respects himself too. A man who admires strong independent women and who sees them as his equals in every way. #internationalwomensday • • • • • #momlife #boymom #motherhood #lifestyleblogger #mommyblogger #momblog #makemoments #thelittlethings #momsofinstagram #unitedinmotherhood
