August Books For Kids

We’re half way through summer! But realistically what does that mean for us anyways. With school very well potentially not resuming classes in the fall, this whole year feels like a parents twilight zone. But I do know our kids have to continue learning and reading no matter what their upcoming school year looks like.  Not only do children’s books serve as educational tools towards their school lessons, but in the societal climate we are in simple stories about understanding, compassion, and equality are some of the most important life lessons they can take with them into their futures. I hope this list inspires all your littles to always use bravery, kindness, and equality when facing new experiences.

A full recap of our stay at @miravalberkshires this past weekend! Gemma and I had best few days, mostly unplugged and bonding. We were both so impressed by the dining experiences each day from healthy breakfasts to farm to table dinners. I also had a chance to escape and enjoy the spa with a Dennis Gross facial which was beyond, but also a Sweet Slumber 80 minute massage that might have been the best massage I’ve ever had in my life! We were sad to say goodbye, but looking forward to the next family week! 💕 @miravalresorts

#JergensPartner | Super excited to announce that the kids and I will be part of @jergensus Mother’s Day campaign! We shot a few weeks back in our Hamptons home with the most amazing crew. We shot all throughout the house, Cooper even made a guest appearance. My favorite part was our spa set up using Jergens Original Scent which is the iconic cherry almond scent! It’s the best moisturizer as it absorbs quickly into the skin and never leaves a sticky feeling. Overall, an incredible day! Stay tuned for the final cut! 🎥 #mothersday #nycmom #momof3 #jergens #skincare

I don’t think anything will ever top our surprise Vegas Taylor Swift concert trip @bethlusko and I pulled off, but our @oliviarodrigo concert came pretty close. Siella and Gemma actually haven’t stopped talking about it! As we approached the venue, I could feel the energy buzzing in the air, a palpable mix of youthful enthusiasm and musical anticipation. The venue comes alive as the lights dim and the first notes of Olivia’s music fill the air. Surrounded by a sea of fans, they sing along to every word, creating memories that will last a lifetime. As I watched their faces light up with joy, I couldn’t help but feel grateful for this moment of shared happiness and connection! And even more grateful when a fav of mine @jewel came out for a surprise performance! One for the books indeed! 💜 #msg #oliviarodrigo #oliviarodrigotour #gutstour #nycmom #nyc #oliviarodrigoconcert

Did you catch the solar eclipse today? 🌕🌖🌗 🌘🌑🌒🌓🌔 As the moon gradually moved in front of the sun, the sky took on this beautiful hue. With our eclipse glasses on, we watched in awe as the sun transformed into a crescent shape, its edges shimmering with a mesmerizing glow. The atmosphere was filled with a sense of anticipation and wonder, as if nature itself was holding its breath in anticipation of this rare event. It’s was a moment of awe and wonder, reminding us of our place in this big universe. 🫶🏼 #solareclipse #solareclipse2024 #eclipse #eclipsesolar #nyc #batterypark #nycfamily

I’m all about skincare and trying out new treatments that are non-invasive to look and feel my best! I’ve known @drpauljarrodfrank, celebrity Cosmetic Dermotologist in the West Village for years now because he’s truly the best in town. My most recent treatment…I’m super excited to tell you about because it really works is EMFACE with the new Submentum for your jawline and neck area. The treatment is needle-free with zero downtime and the results have been incredible. If you’re looking for that non-invasive treatment I cannot recommend Dr Frank and EMFACE treatment enough! I mean look at my before and after! I’m so happy with the results! 🫶🏼 #emface #emfacesubmentum #noninvasivetreatment #skincaretips #nyc

Saffron seems to be all of the rage these days and rightfully so. I suffer tremendously with allergies, and someone recently told me to implement saffron into my daily routine. I’ve heard amazing things about @thefullestco and have been taking their Kinder Thoughts saffron and turmeric capsules, as well as their Warm Feelings lattes, and have to say I’m OBSESSED. Did you know saffron helps w inflammation, headaches, and is also a mood booster so its no wonder why I’ve been feeling great!
