Easter is this week and it’s SO exciting for me because it gives us a break from the chaos of the world right now. I’ll be totally fine and then all of the sudden the weight of all that is happening will hit me and it will feel so heavy and hard!

This week, we are going to be focusing the Savior’s resurrection like never before. In the past, I’ve studied Christ on Easter at church, but I have never devoted the full Holy Week to studying Him and the week before his resurrection. I wanted to compile a simple Easter essentials list of what we are studying (free resources to help your kid’s learn about Christ’s resurrection), what we are planning to wear (it makes the day feel so much more special and exciting when we get dressed up), what I am planning to make for breakfast and dinner that day for my family, and what my kids are getting in their Easter baskets!

My 2020 Easter Essentials

Free resources to help you study Christ’s life and resurrection this Easter with your kids

I am not the super crafty mom that comes up with elaborate lesson plans for my kids, does themed activities and prints out a bunch of printables. That overwhelms me to no end! I think that whatever comes naturally to you when parenting your children should be what you do because our children need happy parents.

In the spirit of helping you make your life easier (I know you have a LOT going on right now), below are some links to the resources I am using this week to learn about Christ’s resurrection in a simple way!

Text message prompts to my phone. The message today brought me to tears!

The Small Seed Easter download packet. I’m SO EXCITED with how easy this is making it for me to teach my kids about Easter this week!

I found these short Bible videos online and I’m SO happy about it. They start at Jesus’ birth. What a simple way to teach my children!

 

what we are wearing this Easter Sunday

I love matching with my girl! This is last Easter weekend in St. George with Tyler’s family. It was such a great time! This year is going to be much different as we will at home with just us 4. I think it’s important now more than ever to make it super special for my family! I ordered this dress for me, and this dress for Goldie. I am SO excited that we get to match. She will be absolutely thrilled as well! For the boys, I am going to pull clothes out of their closets that they already have because I didn’t plan in time and don’t want to pay rush shipping. Janie and Jack has the CUTEST outfits for boys! I’m so bummed I didn’t plan better! They are offering 25% off site wide though if you want to place an order. We plan to have at Easter Service at our home, just the 4 of us, then make a delicious dinner together. We will be dressing up to make it special!

 

my kid’s easter baskets

I shopped for a lot of our Easter Basket goodies 2 months ago before all of the chaos happened! I was at the dollar store and found some really great items. I just ordered some books from Amazon to complete their baskets. I think these books are so cute and I really try to focus on things for their baskets that aren’t candy!

I’m going to make a big breakfast and a big dinner for Easter Sunday! For breakfast, I’m planning to make these raspberry sweet rolls and this breakfast bacon, potato and egg casserole.

For dinner, I’m going to make my artisan bread (you can easily start it the night before and it’s SO EASY), this ham on my Traeger (I’ve never done a ham on my Traeger…I’m excited to try it), some deviled eggs with this recipe after we color them and decorate them with our kids earlier in the day, green beans, and some of these cookies for dessert! I’ll already be baking a lot that day and these are my favorite cookies of ALL TIME. The chocolate chunk and fairyfetti are my favorites. They are unreal! If you’re local, you can order the dough here. If you live in any state in the US, they will ship the baked goods to you!

#ad You think you’re getting a good night’s sl #ad You think you’re getting a good night’s sleep, but you continue to wake up feeling unrested and aren’t sure why.

Your spouse notices you are snoring and they can’t get their own good night’s sleep by sleeping in the same room.

Neither option is any fun for anyone involved!

Snoring can be a symptom. Sleep apnea is where your throat closes off while you are sleeping, which does not allow for proper oxygen flow to your brain, thus leaving you tired the next day….and leaving your spouse sleepless as well.

And we all know that a CPAP machine is not the most user-friendly experience out there…

Enter @Soundsleepmedical. They have created an appliance that gives you sound sleep. The device holds your jaw slightly forward when you sleep so your airway is not blocked at all, and you wake up feeling refreshed and your spouse can sleep back in the same room as you.

Quality of life and a happy spouse is a win-win.

Be sure to use the link in my bio to schedule your free sleep screening. You can use code JENICA to receive a free sleep screening, which includes an in-office consultation and at-home sleep test, along with $50 off your oral appliance.

Sweet dreams my friends.
I cannot BELIEVE it was only a short year ago that I cannot BELIEVE it was only a short year ago that I was deciding if I could handle doing another frozen embryo transfer…and now LOOK at him 🥹 It was one of the hardest years of my entire life. Going through things I don’t wish on anyone. But look at us now 😭 And looking internally…the things I’ve learned.

Tell me about something a year ago for you that you didn’t know you’d get through and can’t believe you are where you’re at 🤍👇🏻 #infertilityjourney #ivfsuccess #frozenembryotransfer
This is it. Not just in motherhood, although moth This is it.

Not just in motherhood, although motherhood really amplifies it, but in life.

It’s the fast days that are loud and sunny.

It’s the slow days that are quiet and snowy.

The mismatched pajamas and the dressed to the nines.

It’s the mess.

It’s the organization and order.

It’s the to-do list that gets crossed off and the to-do list that doesn’t.

It’s in the allowing of both.

It’s in perhaps preferring one over the other, but not judging either.

It’s in the wisdom that both will pass and each have lessons to teach.

Neither is wrong.

Both are allowed.

This is it.

It might feel impossible in the middle of it and y It might feel impossible in the middle of it and you might question everything.

“I have no idea what the future will bring.”

“Will everything I’m putting myself through be worth it?”

“What am I doing?”

“Am I making the right choice?”

But your moments will come. Trust that and let it bring you peace.

The alternative is feeling anxious, which is also completely acceptable and normal, but remember that you also have the option of trusting and feeling peace, too. There is room for both.

You’re not alone in this 🤍

It was a year ago that I decided to jump into the It was a year ago that I decided to jump into the deep, black ocean of IVF again. I knew what I was doing this time and I was filled with fear because…I knew.

When I found out I was pregnant, the fear was my secret. Only a close few knew.

And this space was filled with tears, uncertainty…soul reaching prayers.

Sleepless nights, gut wrenching heartache.

Secrets that I hold close to my heart.

And then he came.

And the healing began.

And the mama, this mama, knew she did it.

That black ocean had swallowed her whole and she’d do it again for the light that is him.

Once she swam to the surface, and jaggedly gasped in the fresh air and felt the sunshine on her face, she knew she would do it all over again.

For this sacred chaos.

Tonight as I was moving the bassinet out of my room, I stopped. The room will soon be cleared. The shelves emptied and the order restored. And I can’t believe that the ocean was conquered. The chaos was where I found the strength and the beauty.

The sacred, precious chaos.
