Who else feels sooooo ready for Spring?! 🙋🏼‍♀️ #paypalpartner The girls and I sure do! We're excited to use Pay in 4 from @PayPal to give our lives a spring makeover! New loungewear in bright spring colors, new spring home decor and fashion pieces, new spring makeup... just gimme ALL 👏🏻 THE 👏🏻 SPRING 👏🏻 THINGS 👏🏻! Y'all - have you heard of @paypal's Pay in 4 solution? It lets you split your purchases between $30-$600 into four payments - once every two weeks - all interest free. Once you apply (which is super quick & easy), you’ll see the option to Pay in 4 when you checkout at millions of online stores where PayPal is accepted. Check out my stories for a swipe up where you can get more info and apply, OR visit paypal.com/payin4 for more info! HAPPY SPRING!

IVF update in my stories finally! 🙏🏻❤️ Plus we’re taking guesses on what our other big life updates are. 🤓 Life is FULL of the unexpected but I wouldn’t choose to be in the thick of it with anyone besides these crazies. (Make sure you peep the bloopers at the end. Jack is a human dinosaur.) ❤️ #forthelovefam

K mamas- what activities do you have your kids involved in now that that’s a thing again? Jack had a baseball game this morning and you should probs peep my stories cuz they’re hilarious. 🙈😂 HAPPY SATURYAY! 🎉 #forthelovefam #mamasboy #jackkendal

Just an imperfect mama & her perfect, crazy minis.☺️ What’s 1 WOOT from your week & 1 WOOF? (We used to do this every week on my blog waaaay back in the day. Felt like bringing it back!) ⠀ OUR WOOTS: -Charlie in the gait trainer for the first time (see my last post)! Watch for her WALKING soon! 💃🏼 -negative COVID test result for me. 🙏🏻 -@chasewillardson resigned from his current job & had his last day on Thursday! 😱 On to a new chapter and big changes in the Willardson household y’all. I’m equal parts excited + poop-my-pants scared, not gonna lie. 💩😳 But it feels right, so FAITH over FEAR baby. Sometimes that which scares us most yields the greatest rewards, amiright? And now that I’ve been annoyingly cryptic about this 🙄 I promise we’ll share more soon. ⠀ OUR WOOFS: -Everybody (except Chase) coming down with a gnarly cold. WOOOF. -All in the same night for 2 nights in a row: barf + poo blowouts from both girls. That was a fun cleanup at 3 am whilst sick myself. 🤓 -Civil unrest in all its forms. It’s not lost on us. Praying for all affected. 🙏🏻 ⠀⠀ What were your woots & woofs? The good and the bad from this week? We keep it real about BOTH around here! Let them rip! Hope there were more woots than woofs! Happy Sunday! ❤️ #forthelovefam #happysunday

BIG DAY for Charlie Girl! 🎉 First time using a GAIT TRAINER!! (see my stories) So help me y’all - we’re gonna see this little miss WALK some day! Ava too! 🙏🏻 And you guys will have been here for the whole journey. 😭🙏🏻 We’re watching it unfold right before our eyes!!! ❤️ Char is testing out gait trainers over the next few weeks with the goal of becoming proficient enough that she qualifies to get one of her own. So WATCH OUT WORLD - this girl is on fire and she’s just getting started!! 🔥🔥#littlecharlotterose #gaittrainer #congenitaldisorderofglycosylation

Would you rather be poolside or on the beach if you had to choose? I think the girls would say POOL and Jack would say BEACH! Either way we’ve been living our best spring break life staying at the @fairmontgranddelmar in San Diego which has a gorrrrrgeous pool area but is also nice & close to beautiful beaches. Hashtag NIRVANA peeps. 🙌🏻 More in my stories! #forthelovefam #willardsonclanspringbreak #sandiego #sponsored

Happy birthday sweet Jack!! My first born is SEVEN today y’all! 😭 Cue all the emo-mom feels. He came into the world 1 week past his due date and after 48-hours of labor & he’s been giving us a run for our money ever since! 😂 He has also changed my heart forever. ❤️ Happy Birthday to my kind, empathetic, compassionate, smart, witty, bright shining boy!! I love you times infinity! ❤️ #happybirthdayjack #forthelovefam

‘I would give anything for a cure’... said every mama EVER who has a child with an incurable rare disease. 💔 You may remember me mentioning last month that we’ve teamed up with @givebetterfund to highlight one of their impact projects each month. This month, one of their impact projects supports Project Cure the Kids - an initiative aimed at building a sustainable solution that helps kids with rare diseases (like Ava & Charlie) and their families. Talk about hitting close to home. 🙏🏻❤️ Check out my stories for more info about this incredible impact project + a link where you can donate, as well as all of the impact projects The Give Better Fund is supporting this month. Hearts that long to give are hearts that change the world!! 🙏🏻 #sponsored #givebetter #givebetterfund

Easter through the years! Make sure you scroll to the end 🥰. I gotta tell ya - the resurrection hits different when you have children with disabilities. Knowing that because HE died and rose again, my angel baby girls will one day be resurrected with perfect, fully abled bodies... gosh I don’t even have the words to describe how that makes me feel. 🙏🏻 Overwhelming, heart-explosion gratitude would be a starting point. HE IS RISEN! Happy Easter friends! 🙏🏻💓 #heisrisen #happyeaster #easter #forthelovefam

Just a couple of girls who are very very ready for SPRING!🌷🌷K, y'all know I LOVE me a box full of products, so allow me to introduce you to my new favorite: @CAUSEBOX. This isn't your average subscription box y'all. @Causebox has a mission to fill their boxes with the best socially conscious products that also give back. And that's something Charlie girl and I can get behind! Every box comes with $250+ of amazing products for only $50. I'm obsessed with the tote and the Diff bluelight glasses that came in this season's box! I also love the artisan-made napkins! ⠀ Use code SHANNON to get an extra $15 off your first box, making it only $35! #causeboxcollective #causeboxpartner

#dovepartner Bathrobe buddies! 🛁 We love us some @dove products over here y’all... and we love that we can stock up on them by getting them from @costco ! 🙌🏻 Dove has three ways to clean and care via their hand wash, bar soap, and body wash. Char and I highly recommend you pick some up on your next visit to your local Costco! Happy Friday! ❤️ #doveallday #forthelovefam

Who even knew there could be a love like this? 💞🤍💖 Charlie-girl got her Botox today! Update in my stories! Thank you for the prayers! 🙏🏻 #forthelovefam #littlecharlotterose #missavajoy #jackkendal

Late post! What are your Easter traditions y’all? I LOVE hearing about other people’s traditions... and then stealing them for my family! 🤓😂 One of our faves is a good ol’ classic Easter egg hunt! 🐰 We did an egg hunt test-run and got decked out in @oldnavy looks to take some Easter pics! Old Navy is always our go-to for new Easter outfits... and pretty much ALL our outfits. 🤗 Peep my stories for swipe ups to all our looks! #sponsored #oldnavystyle #mini❤️ me #forthelovefam
