this is a sponsored post on behalf of Gymboree's #OneBigHappy campaign.  we received complimentary clothing in exchange for an honest review.  all opinions are my very own, always. 

DSC_0824-02 3 words. christmas in july! they were crazy excited when i told them this bright orange box was filled with goodies just for them.  receiving mail with my name on it as a child always made me feel so special.  even if it was junk mail, haha. DSC_0830-01is summer vacation not the perfect time for a play day?!  my boys know how important getting out from in front of the TV and going outside is to me, and well, they show me daily that they’re listening.  they are constantly asking to go 'somewhere fun' and the park is usually their number one choice.  it's definitely one of their favorite past times.  i hope staying active continues to be something they enjoy doing throughout their lives. DSC_0836-01Gymboree's activewear collection, Gymgo, is made to keep up with active kids, so they basically need to live in these clothes!  by their request, i took them to one of their favorite parks to play and sport their gear.DSC_0858-01Chiso is such an accessories type of guy. the hat, the shades; he's gotta wear it all at once to complete his look. as hot as the texas summer heat is, i don't blame him!Processed with VSCOthe eye-catching, bold, bright colors stood out to me the most. matches their little rambunctious personalities perfectly!  the breathable, cool fabric is a plus as these guys sweat a ton when they play.  heck, we work up a sweat just getting in and out of the car down in texas.

Processed with VSCODego's,  "who's about to go run out there in this heat? not me." look. smart man.

PhotoGrid_1468266519001they kicked the soccer ball around for a while but then we took a much-needed water and snack break. ice cream cookie sandwiches on deck!  err, ice cream cookie soupwiches.

Processed with VSCOthat didn't stop them from sopping that ice cream up like biscuits and gravy though, LOL.Processed with VSCOdon't worry Dego, you won't be the youngest for too much longer, bud :) . alright, sugar rush kicking in! time to play some more.

PhotoGrid_1468266479204i could learn a thing or two from this kid when it comes to posing! i asked Chiso what he loved most about his Gymgo gear:  

Processed with VSCO

"i love how soft the fabric is and how cool the colors and patterns are.  i love blue so much!!"  he also loved the "Jump, Dunk, Score" tee (pictured at the very top) as basketball is one of his favorite sports to play with his Papa right now. 

meanwhile, Dego clearly came to play, not pose.

Processed with VSCO   PhotoGrid_1468266817430ok, ok, just two pics, mama, that's it!

'locked and loaded' with the Mumberry Flourish Tank! #MumsWhoMove

2016-07-09-09.58.55-1-e1468254485528.jpg

support, compression, coverage, comfort. 

201607097010714794 things you need when staying active while pregnant!  i put the Flourish Maternity Tank to the test recently for both weights & cardio and was impressed to say the least. my #1 reason? the fabulous, full coverage, built-in bra which kept the girls in place the entire time.  i love that it even doubles as breast pads when you're nursing to prevent leakage stains!! #beenthere #awkward how cool is that!?  Processed with VSCObuilt-in bras fail me left and right, even when i'm not preggo.  but not this 3 in 1 tank. no need to buy a sports bra, belly band, and a maternity tank separately ever again.  i've actually never worn a belly band before, but the Mumband experience helped me hold better posture while lifting!  even with all the bending and reaching, the band stayed in place, didn't ride up and/or expose me, and continued to provide wonderful back and belly support.  Processed with VSCOthe thick, soft, double wide, criss cross strap design provided maximum support without digging into my shoulders.Processed with VSCOand that teal! it's one of my favorite colors.  currently, you can save 20% on your tank now by simply joining Mumberry's mailing list, woo hoo!Processed with VSCOfit mamas, i encourage you to take the Mumband Challenge.  if your belly doesn't feel more supported while wearing the Mumband maternity belly band, you can return it for a full refund.  win-win.
