Rob braved the rainy weather to grab some Apple tree branches for our Easter tree. Bringing in the joy of spring and Easter to our home. Do you do an Easter tree? #stayhome #platformathome

Because the world is sad right now, maybe a smile from this little monkey will make your day! Turn Stuck and home to Safe at home. We are all in this together xoxo #emmittanthonyjoseph

I posted this in my stories today, along with many other shots this past weekend that are photos I love, but am afraid no one else will. So, there they live in stories for only 24 hours before they disappear. Well, with home being our only view right now, I’m thinking these shots, the ones that truly document our day, quickly taken from my phone, edited on my phone be the ones I share more of. What do you think? Do you love the spur of the moment iphone shots like this? Or the staged, scheduled shots so many of us have succumbed to for growth on this platform? Let me know in the comments. #morninglight #wilddecoelispreset

Being stuck in the house with your significant oth

Being stuck in the house with your significant other and kids can be pretty challenging...we feel ya. But, isn’t there a saying about the family that Reno’s together stays together? Well, keeping our mind on the laundry room right now is definitely making us work together instead of against. We even let the kids help with painting because I made a sure to buy the extra thick @scotchpainterstape leaving less chance for them getting it ALL OVER THE WALLS. Anyways, it’s been fun. What are you doing to stay sane right now? #stayhome #getstuffdone #platformathome

I haven’t brought myself to post in almost a wee

I haven’t brought myself to post in almost a week. The air is weird and no one really knows how to react. Some become judgemental due to fear, others still remain very supportive. We’ve never experienced this in our lifetime and I hope that this is the only time we will have to. Rob’s wedding business for this season is touch and go with large gatherings illegal at the moment and our blogging business relies on promoting goods that some may deem non -essential, but promoting them are essential for us to pay our bills.
Add in all the Memes talking about the moms out there having the cleanest home ever because they are home. Well, ours is the messiest with 5 people and a dog living in 1600 sq/ft and to be honest, this hallways is the cleanest corner of the home.
I’m so proud of my family and how we’ve handled this big change in our schedule and we are getting used finding a new way to get things done. We are online shopping, phone ordering from local businesses that need to stay open, and staying in our home beside our outdoor adventures on our own property. But where do we go from here?
Your support, likes, comments and all support us through this. And I hope we all stay healthy both in mind and body through this all. So, from here on out, we will be sharing what’s keeping us busy in the house and the safest way for you to do it also without leaving your home. We are here like always to inspire you. So, let’s keep inspiring for when this is all over. #stayhome #wilddecoelispreset

BIG NEWS! So, as we sat at our desk today with the kids running around us like cabin fever has already set in, we brainstormed what we could bring you guys while we are all stuck at home. And, it dawned on me to finally put some work in behind our presets. I can’t give you a date one when we will have our Lightroom Desktop ones available, BUT, if you are a subscriber to our newsletter, tomorrow morning you will have my go to mobile in your inbox. Now while you wait here is a quick photo I did on my phone and edited with the preset. I needed to document these doors rob has worked so hard on, my new @rugs_usa rug and my @cultiver_goods linen bed cover. All are making being home that much more enjoyable. #wilddecoelispreset #shotoniphone11promax

Give me a 🙋🏻‍♀️ in the comments if you

Give me a 🙋🏻‍♀️ in the comments if your office is also a dumping ground? Rob and I share an office space, and with wedding season just a few months away we wanted to do some spring organizing. This year my goal is all about working smarter, I have been learning how to keep my workspace clear. I was so sick of the space being cluttered, especially since guests have to walk through it to get to the powder room. So, I went to @StaplesCanada and stocked up! Especially on the organizers from the chic Poppin collection, like the file sorter to hold our day planners, and letter tray for all the loose papers. When you have the right accessories to make sure everything is in its place it makes such a big difference. A clean office can do wonders on your work ethic. What do you think? # Ad #Goals #worklearngrow

This is us!... the only Family photo from our trip

This is us!... the only Family photo from our trip right before dinner on one of the first days because Aubrey really wanted one. The camera was balanced on a tower of Tupperware and yes that was laundry drying on our balcony after I washed it in the sink. This photo now is one of my favorites, especially with the way the world is right now. We want this space to keep your mind off the craziness but also give you support if and where you need it. We are always a DM away. 😍 #thewilddecoelis #ourfamily

Welcome to our pantry, where everything has a plac

Welcome to our pantry, where everything has a place. Spring cleaning has started and this was so great to tackle as our first project. I seriously can’t believe how easy it is to keep things organized, clean and full now that we can actually see what we have One of the key reasons this works is the awesome labels we made custom on our @brothercanada P-touch Cube. We were able to choose the font, add graphics to help the kids with knowing what the words say, and we even might switch out the white labels on the cooking shelf to black so that each shelf is categorized by colour. I just figured out how to add actual photos from your phone to the labels as well so that you can add a shot of the packaging for future reference. But really... How much better does it look?!?
Use promo code DECOELIS (valid until March 17) to get the lowest price on the P touch Cube PTP300BTAD —just $39.99.

Happy International Women’s Day!
Does anyone else panic and push off visiting your family doctor like I do?
I feel like it takes so long to get into a doctor’s office for the big things that I’m more likely to take myself or my kids to the ER or just wait it out at home. But as a busy mama with 3 beautiful babies that need to be cared for, I know I need an alternative. To show support to all you busy mamas out there holding down the fort in your own homes, I wanted to share an app with you called @GOeVisit SmartExam where you can get help from a healthcare professional on your own schedule—anytime, anywhere. I wrote all about this service on the blog and how to get 2 months free, so head there if you are like me and need a backup plan. # ad #GOeVIsit

Top loading vs. Front loading...which are you? We are old school and like our top load but are shocked at how many people asked for a why after we revealed the laundry room. I wrote a blog post on our reasons that is linked in stories if you were interested. #laundryroommakeover #laundryroom

Ok, are you a lover or hater of March break?!? @indigo, our kid’s favourite place to visit, has got an event each day for a kid in your family. Obviously, we are heading to the Peppa Pig day as well as the LEGO Day. I’ve listed out what events are going on in my stories with a link to learn more because mama, you deserve a latte, and your kids to
get out of the house and stay entertained while you’re on break. #indigostaycation #ad

We are home! If you followed our stories this week

We are home! If you followed our stories this week, you already know that our first official family vacation was an absolute nightmare, from a sketchy resort, to the Dominican flu... this kid though... he’s not good with change and we were so worried taking him down here. But even when his whole family was sick around him, he held it together (and poppy’s barf bag) and I am so stinking Proud of him. I’ve learned so much travelling with our kids and this isn’t going to stop us from travelling with them in the future. But, we did learn some hard lessons and are a stronger family because of it. #motherandson #aubreypatrick

Did you ever watch that British makeover show abou

Did you ever watch that British makeover show about dressing for your body type? In it, you have to put yourself in a row with other women in order of where you thing you body size fits. None of them ever guessed small enough. I feel like I’m the same . I was so stressed packing for this trip, being 8 months postpartum and having to live in a bathing suit. But then I got here and realized that I look normal, we all look the same size and that my mum tum from making 3 beautiful babes should not stop me for having an absolute blast with them on this trip. Day 5 is ending and trust me, I worry more about sunscreen application at this point than my mom bod 😉😉#postpartumbody #mommytummy

Since turning 30 almost 3 years ago, I’ve been battling with my aging skin. I’m always trying to
stay away from anything that will cause my sensitive skin to flare up yet will help with my fine
lines. For the last 30 days I have been using @olay_canada Retinol24 Night Cream and I’ve
noticed a difference—I can’t believe how much smoother, brighter, and even-toned my skin is.
Retinol is a magic ingredient, but for many people are too scared to give it a try. So, head over
to my blog (link in bio) to learn all about retinol and how it can transform your skin!
Have you tried a retinol product? How did you like it? #ad #retinol24

Confession: I have been trying to make a viable so

Confession: I have been trying to make a viable sourdough bread for 5 weeks now. I kept it on the down low because A. I didn’t want to be labelled as following the IG mom trend that it now has, and B. Didn’t want to share if I couldn’t get it right and gave up. Finally, after 3 attempts at starter, 2 attempts at bread, I am super close to the perfect bread. It’s not GF but the sour in sourdough actually helps make gluten easier to digest. Plus, look how pretty those loaves are. #sourdoughbread
