EIGHT’S SHOWTIME!
ETHAN’S MONKEY BUSINESS IS FULL-TIME! 🐵🍌

Eight months already. 👶✨

Somewhere between learning, laughing, exploring, and keeping Mommy and Daddy on our toes, Ethan has officially entered his full-time adventure era. 😂

These days, everything is fascinating.

Every corner deserves investigating.
Every sound needs a reaction.
Every new discovery feels like the greatest thing ever.

And honestly? Watching the world through his eyes has been one of the greatest gifts of parenthood. 🤍

For his 8-month celebration, Ethan rocked an adorable crochet monkey outfit handmade with love by Mommy Megan. 🧶🐵

As for the food, Daddy Lester served some of our family favorites:

🌮 DIY Taco Bar
🦐 Shrimp Fajitas
🥩 Beef Fajitas
🍖 Baked Citron Pork Chops
🍗 Chicken Popcorn
🥗 Kani Salad
🍉 An array of fresh fruits
🍰 And plenty more delicious treats

One of the highlights of the day was our cake decorating showdown between Dhylan and Akiesha. 🎂😂

The competition got serious, the creativity came out, and somehow Ethan ended up with THREE cakes!

Now we need your help…

❓Team Dhylan or Team Akiesha?
Who wins the cake decorating contest? 😂👇

As always, thank you to everyone who celebrated with us, sent gifts, shared kind wishes, and continues to be part of Ethan’s journey. We appreciate every message, every visit, and every memory made along the way. 🤍

“Childhood is a collection of little moments that become our favorite memories.”

Here’s to 8 months of wonder, laughter, adventure, and love. 🐵✨

Some deodorants try way too hard to smell “fresh.”

You know the type.

Too sweet. Too loud. Too synthetic.
Like your underarms are hosting a beach party no one asked for. 😅

After testing the Native Tropic Tides Deodorant Stick for the past 2 weeks, this one feels more wearable than expected.

It gives that sunny, beach-inspired freshness without going overboard. The glide feels smooth, the scent feels clean, and it fits easily into a daily routine whether I’m heading to work, running errands, or just trying not to feel stale by mid-day.

That’s what I like about Native’s Surf Club collection. Clean, simple formulas paired with scents that capture the feeling of sun-soaked days and endless waves without being overpowering.

Not every grooming product needs to be complicated.

Sometimes you just need something that works, smells good, and helps you feel fresh and confident throughout the day.

Question for you 👇

⁉️Would you wear a beach-inspired scent year-round, or only during summer? 🌊☀️

Comment “TROPIC” if you want my quick deodorant ranking.
