"Our Top 10 places in Hawaii" blog post is now live at sarahlemkus.com 🌴🌴Was so fun to go through our entire trips photos again and revisit how much fun we had seeing our friends @_amanda_bradshaw, @ellenfisher and @andrewfisher44! You guys are welcome here anytime!! Next adventure for us as a family starts in 14 days! ☀️
Poor Beth! She had her first belt of illness this week. So far she's had nothing more than a runny nose and two stomach viruses. This is the first winter with no breastmilk either - she weaned at Christmas time (26-months-old). On Monday Beth woke up crying of pain in her right ear. She must of had a build up of fluid around her ear drum from a runny nose she had the day prior. My guess was that it was an ear infection or the start of one. Quick Dr. Mummy instincts kicked in to help her ear and relieve her pain. I grabbed a bottle of my NZ made cold pressed garlic infused olive oil and put two drops into her sore ear. She had a spray of vitamin D3 and I also made her up an immune boosting drink made from @nuzestnz Kids Good Stuff - packed with greens, fruit, veggies and herbs as well as immune boosting vitamins and minerals - it also tastes like chocolate milkshake from the raw cacao and stevia so it masked the extra acerola berry powder (vitamin c) and two drops of ionic zinc I added to the drink. After mixing it up with cold coconut water she drank most of it back. Still in pain, I held her, rocked her, and layed in bed to encourage her to go to sleep. But after a while her pain increased and I ended up giving her a bit of children's pain relief. It's good for your body to have temperatures to kill off the bad guys as it's a sign your body is fighting the infection. Pain relief helps bring down temperatures, and I was weary of not letting her body fight off the infection. But after seeing her in so much pain, I gave her some pain relief. Soon after she was happy chappy again for a few hours. After some food, water and lots of stories in my bed - and before the pain relief wore off, I put her to bed. She slept for 5 hours and I monitored her. She had a high temp while she was sleeping and knew her body was on the right track. 5 hours later there was no sign of infection, pain and Beth has been a happy girl since! Just a quick story to show the power of garlic oil, immune boosting wholefood supplements and a bit of conventional pain relief can help fight infections! What are your favourite/key things you do when you play Dr. in your household? I'd love to know!
Consider the lilies, they toil not nor spin. They bask in God's sunshine, they drink in God's rain. If God cares for them in such marvellous ways, how much more, how much more, how much more will he care for me, and supply all my needs everyday! 🌷🌹🌷🌹🌷🌹🌷
Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive. Yesterday's adventure 🌈 will be on my blog this week along with my lastest bumpdate 🤰It felt so good to get the camera out on a beautiful day at one of my favourite bays! This moment stole my heart when we found some beautiful roses left behind by a bride on her wedding day. Hope you all had a lovely weekend 💘
This will be us in a month today!! ⚡️Travelling around the South Island in a van (a warmer van though, it's gonna be snowy ❄️☃️). Eeee we are so excited as it marks a new season and journey for us as a family. South Islanders where are the best places for vegan eats and things to see and do (especially with a toddler!)? It will be Beth's first time seeing the snow 🌈 Pic by the awesome @scottysinton Love his work!
In a time where there are more devices, services and experts to help us look better on the outside, our girls are more insecure on the inside. We need to remind them of their potential. They are not objects that need to be fixed. They are human beings, capable of being nation changers, passionate, loving, tenacious, strong, kind, creative, inventive and loyal. I know first hand what it's like to deal with body image issues. Take this picture for example. Looking at my eyes, I remember how insecure, unhappy and tired I felt. I didn't like the way my body looked as a model and I wasted so much time trying to fix it through extreme diets. Yet now, eight years later I am far happier with my body image - Yes, I have stretch marks in PLENTY of places. Yes, I have sad boobs from breastfeeding for 26 months. I don't call myself any negative words like I used to even though my body is in a much more used state. I am far from perfect, but I know my purpose. Contrary to what media messages tell you, your body isn't broken. Our bodies are made for a purpose and each of us need to take a hold of that and live life to the full. As each of us do that, we give others permission to do the same. We need to encourage young women to celebrate all of themselves and what they have to offer this world. Tag a friend who needs to hear this ❤️ ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ *Most of these words are from a powerful short video I watched this week. If you want to find this video I have added it to a playlist on my Youtube channel called 'You Are Worthy'.
This smoothie photo marks a sign of celebration - I can drink smoothies AGAIN 🍹🍾🥂🎉🎉 After 10 weeks of nausea and morning sickness I'm free (almost)!! Sorry, hehe I thought I'd share my celebration with you. It was a tough 10 weeks! Baby Lemkus is the size of a lemon, but I look like I'm carrying a small cantaloupe instead 🙈 plus as of this week I can't stop eating! Hehe loving it ✨ Smoothie packed with organic goodness: kale, bananas, kiwifruit, feijoas, barley grass juice powder, @hawaiianspirulina, hemp seed hearts, chia seeds, acerola berry powder (vitamin c), trace mineral drops, liquid ionic zinc, water and even a splash of home brewed feijoa kombucha (which I realise it shouldn't touch metal 🙈) 🍃🍃🍃 #eatwellwithsarah #eatwellwithsarahpregnancy #whatbabybetheats
Our crazy wee family 💘 New video is up of what Beth eats in a day! YouTube: Sarah Lemkus (link in bio too) I love our family days on Saturday's that are always filled with adventure. Capturing them in vlogs is also so fun as we are constantly challenging our videography skills AND best, we get these special memories of our family 💜💜💜 @danlemkus And I love documenting them and hope you enjoy watching them too!
