5 years ago today Derick and I met.... and this morning at 2:49am we met our son. Welcome to our little family Bodhi Tyler Hobbs. You are so cherished and loved.

IT IS BABY TIME!

The hubs has taken over my podcast!

A few weeks ago I recorded a podcast on 5 Ways to Serve Your Husband and Be A Better Wife, so it only seemed fitting to have Derick take over to talk about serving from the husband’s perspective. This week we are binding women’s hearts to Jesus as they walk in freedom, but maybe also men’s. Here’s a quick recap of what Derick shared, but definitely check out the podcast to hear more!

1. Give her permission to hold you accountable (and then also honor it)
2. Aim for the right mark
3. Don’t keep score, but instead try to run up the score
4. Don’t take your cues from society

Marriage shouldn’t be one sided. It’s about working together as a team/unit. We are all going to fall short, but we can’t be aiming at any other target than Jesus.

Be sure to check out the latest episode of the Chasing Freedom Show! If you love the podcast, screenshot and share it with me on your story! Tag me @_tannerhobbs and use the hashtag #chasingfreedom so that you can be a part of helping more families find freedom in their life! #podcastforhusbands #godlyhusband #marriagepodcast #marriagetips #smog

#momthoughts entry 3

I pray you have the same respect for me and your dad as I do for my parents.

Today I was asked to describe my parents in three words. THREE WORDS?! I could think of 100 but none that really described all that they were.

My answer ended up being, “I can’t think of three words, they are the best people I know so just write that down.” 😂

I realized after the fact that not many people can say that. Families are tough. And broken. And often painful.

I also realized that this doesn’t just happen. My parents probably wouldn’t have had the same answer about their parents if they were asked that at 27.

I know NOTHING about parenting. I haven’t done it one single day 😂 but I’ve watched my parents do it with grace, intentionality and SO MUCH love. They admit when they are wrong. They take advice with discernment. They encourage, call out and selflessly show up time and time again.

One of my favorite things my parents have taught me (that I know everyone may not agree with) is that they will always be my parents. They allow us to explore our own beliefs and respect our new little family’s decisions... but at the end of the day, they are still my mom and dad. They teach me and let me teach them.

Just a bunch of jumbled thoughts about parenting before I add “mom” to the list of things that describe me.

What has been the best parenting advice you have ever been given?

Love you Dede and Bo! @dianetevis

#momthoughts entry 2

So many people ask me “what it’s like to be pregnant in a pandemic?” Or people will say, “I hate that you don’t get to have your husband there for everything”.

I’ve always had trouble with how to respond. This is all I know 🤷🏼‍♀️. I’ve never been pregnant outside of a pandemic. The same day our city basically shut down was the day I got a positive test.

Maybe this has been more tough for the mommas who have had babies before everything became so different.

Do I wish my husband could be with me? Of course. And do I wish my parents could come meet our son on his birthday? Absolutely. Those moments would be so sweet.

But I don’t think it steals the precious moments we have gotten or will have.
(As long as they don’t make me push this baby out with a mask on 😅)

Honestly- we have been too stoked to care. There are so many couples PRAYING to get pregnant in the middle of this pandemic. Women grieving. Miscarriages. Infertility. Battles.

So I guess my answer is... it’s beautiful. It’s a blessing. It’s special. It’s a MIRACLE.

Thinking and praying for the families who would love be carrying a child in the middle of pandemic.

#momthoughts entry 1
(daily thoughts until Bug makes his arrival)

It’s already been a journey and I have not even met him yet. I haven’t even had the chance to change a diaper, rock him to sleep or worry about his first runny nose.

I honestly feel like this started back in the Spring of 2019. Our hearts desired to know him then. We entered into a season we had no clue would feel so difficult. An experience that simultaneously both grew and tested our faith.

I thought I knew my body but those months left me feeling completely separated from my intuition. Feeling foreign to the slightest understanding of how my body would carry this baby.

Fast forward to 20 months later.... the anticipation has remained steady although felt different. It’s shifted. Now I sit here feeling so close to this little boy without having known him. Maybe that’s God? Maybe because He created Bug and I, we have a bond that has happened without an understanding. Maybe that’s “faith not by sight”.

This anticipation to meet him is full of unknowns.
When
How
At what pace
Will he make his arrival?

Everything thing I feel has me at the edge of my seat.

And I wonder— will I ever feel this same excitement and anticipation for the day Jesus returns?

Oh sweet motherhood, we are so close and you’re already stretching my faith.

IT’S BABY MONTH!!!! 17 days until his due date 😱

1. How is November?
2. One of those most special days of our lives happens this month.
3. My hubby gifted me this really sweet Kentucky crewneck this weekend & I’m obsessed. I love this beautiful state.
4. I think I’ve laughed harder with Derick in these last few weeks than I ever have. It’s moments like these that make me excited to figure out parenthood together. We kinda just feel like two big kids.
5. I don’t sleep steady at all but how can you when your body is preparing to birth your baby at any time???

It’s been a really fun Halloween weekend. We have not been the couple to dress up as a family of two but we promise to make our Halloween debut as a family of 3 next year. We are going all in and will be THAT family.

Doing a almost first time parents q&a on my stories tonight with @dthobbs22 — ask a question!

Will this little turkey make it before Thanksgiving? 🙏🏼

I’m still trying to work through the whole “I

I’m still trying to work through the whole “I do an MLM” thing. As a business owner myself and someone who has been in the fitness industry, I can’t put a # on how many times I’ve been DM’d about MLMs. It’s a lotttttt.

It’s those messages that had my hands up 🙅🏼‍♀️ to the business side of Young Living. The pushy, cringey messages had me SOLELY wanting to use the oils for my life and that is all.

And then these things completely changed my mind and I’m all in:
👉🏼Because of the product I was buying and using, I couldn’t NOT share with people I loved about them. I’m actually obsessed. If I had to choose ONE company to buy product from, it would be YL. Clothes? Aerie. #whatacombo
👉🏼 I saw someone I really admired as a business owner, mom and wife doing it. I saw it transforming her life. I saw her giving other families opportunity for financial freedom. I saw her saying no to more and yes to her family more.
👉🏼I found out the income is not only residual but also WILLABLE. My business is my jam, we all know how much I love running Chasing Freedom. But if something happens to me, the company pretty much also ends. No one is as passionate about it as me. My YL income is building for generations to come. That’s comforting as a soon-to-be momma.
👉🏼My husband. He overheard a call I got on. Ask me some questions. And basically asked “why would you not do this?”
👉🏼Toxic products and the increase of EVERYTHING. Disease, cancer, infant illnesses, infertility... because of media, we are really just fully learning as a society what’s in our stuff. Non-toxic living is on the rise and I wanna help people walk that WITH me.

I’m bringing on a few more gals to do this biz with me. Our team mentorship starts Monday. Who wants in? DM me and I’ll give you the steps to join our team and get plugged in.

Next year our little pumpkin will get to join the

Next year our little pumpkin will get to join the annual carving party too! Can’t wait to chase after him while I pretend he cares what we carve.

PS.. I love you @dthobbs22 🍂

These are the days. I just finished using the bath

These are the days. I just finished using the bathroom while listening to a friend pray over me on voice memo.

Right there. On the potty. God was squeezing me and reminding me that He is near.

Truth is, there is so much I kinda pretend that God just misses. Like maybe He was too busy to catch that I chose partake in the gossip because honestly it just felt good to rant.

Or maybe He was side tracked when I chose to cave and WAY overeat the pumpkin cinnamon rolls that I made last night.

I still struggle choosing Him when I want to choose me. It’s always a quick satisfaction that I later experience the aftermath of.

And there He waits. Arms still open. Accepting me in my entirety. Despite not choosing Him back. And He wraps me up to remind me of this freedom in Him.

This is my life. A STRONG holy desire to know Him closely, hungry for revival.
And yet, fighting my flesh in every hour that resist obedience.

Rebellious and righteous depending on the day/ hour.

And there He waits.
Open arms.
Accepting this chaos and offering me peace.

I’m logging off for the weekend ✌🏼I pray these next few days for you and I are days FILLED with invitation to draw near to his love. Days that we never forget. Days that we tell the next generation about. #Hisstory #chasingfreedom #revival

What does it look like to really serve your husban

What does it look like to really serve your husband? How does your relationship with God impact how you love and serve him? These are just a couple of questions I’ve asked myself about my marriage so far and maybe you’ve asked yourself these questions too!

Marriage is a beautiful gift, and I am by no means a veteran. We’ve been married for three and a half years and we’ve learned a lot so far. It can be the most beautiful, earthly relationship, but it also takes a lot of work.

Whether you’re already a wife, engaged, or dreaming of getting married someday, I’m sure there is a little nugget of truth you can takeaway. If this sparked your interest, check out my latest podcast episode where we chat about how to show up, how to serve, and how to be better.

Podcast link in my bio.

Random- do you know your significant other’s love language? Comment below what it is if you do. We did this in marital counseling and it helped us a lot. But I’m starting to think we need to re-take the test in this season of life. Can they change? Just thinking out loud lol. #servantwife #wifeandhusband #godlymarriage #marriagetips #36weekspregnant #maternitypics

Do you ever feel super overwhelmed at the thought

Do you ever feel super overwhelmed at the thought of decorating your home? That was me after college. Trying to find decor that I loved and fit my style with my budget in mind seemed like a daunting task.

I knew there had to be a better way to find the things I loved that were still budget friendly and luckily there is! I put together some steps that helped me ease that overwhelming feeling and have helped me actually love getting to decorate a home for my family and create a space for us to feel safe and do life together.

Listen to my latest podcast episode (Chasing Freedom Show) for some info on how I decorate a room in my home on a budget by utilizing steps that have helped me and will hopefully help you too! (hint: Pinterest may or not be involved!)

p.s. As fun as it can be to decorate your space, we have to remember that we don’t want to make it a place we worship, but a place to worship in. It’s a house, not our forever home.

Words I’m hearing a lot lately. Mom guilt. Mommy

Words I’m hearing a lot lately.
Mom guilt.
Mommy wars.
Mom shame.

I’m realizing these, unfortunately, are all very real things women (and probably men) are experiencing as they passionately love their kids and try their best.

It’s made me hesitant to share some things on here. My views, opinions and parenting styles will be just that. Views. Opinions. Styles.

Just like other parents, we are going to do the best we can to raise this little boy to know Jesus, love people and embrace the fullness of who he was created to be.

My prayer is that you never feel shamed, guilty or resistance from what I choose to share. That you deeply understand that I’m linking arms with you, despite the diversity in how we choose to parent.

We are gonna stumble our way through this but as we do, we are going to love really hard the whole way.

If you’re a momma and feeling these pressures. I’m sorry! That must be really hard. Remember.. you can unfollow. You can pray. And you have the ability to set boundaries around what you’re taking in that is making you feel this way.

One month from due date! People tell us there is no love like what we are about to experience. A deeper love for this man and our baby? Yeah, sign me up for that. I want a life full of all the lovins. I feel so blessed for this little Hobbs family to expand and for my boys to teach me more about life. #9monthspregnant

Every week has been my favorite but week 35 is really my favorite.

In +/- 5 weeks we will have a son on this side of eternity with us. I’m not okay.

Current things I’m experiencing:
🍪🥬 one minute a salad sounds great and the next a big fluffy cookie sounds better, but isn’t that life? Lol
💪🏼🚶🏼‍♀️the more I move, the better off I am. Sitting just doesn’t cut it for me at this point. Walk, stretch, bounce and lift are where I am as much as I can while still working.
🎒🧽 nesting is an actual thing. I told Derick I’m making a list for us to knock out around here these next 5 weeks, one lovely task at a time. But deep down, I want to hire someone to come REALLY clean ha!
🤤 I have had the privilege to have the highest libido in all the land this ENTIRE pregnancy. I honestly still don’t know how to handle it. I’m just glad Derick is home again starting next week.
⚡️✨ my energy is amazing + I just started taking a new dose of magnesium at night.. wow wow wow #gamechanger
😖 pelvic, round ligament and back pain all make their appearances whenever the heck they want— I just tell myself it’s preparing my body to push this baby out!
🍂🍁 it’s official, I want to have this big bump every Fall. It just feels so right.
➕ let’s talk mindset in preparing for your first ever birth— it matters. I’m really careful who I listen to/ what I listen to. With ZERO expectations and no experience, our brains can be tricky little suckers. Just really praying to put on the FULL armor of God erryday.

Some fun things I plan to share in these next weeks! Like hospital bag packing, nursery tour, how I’m choosing to prep for labor/delivery, frozen meals, my doula visits us and alllll the nesting.

My due date is Nov 18th, when do you think he is coming? Comment below. #35weekspregnant #firstpregnancy #pregnancyjounrey #laborprep #newmom #mompreneur

Let’s say you decide to boldly invest in the Bus

Let’s say you decide to boldly invest in the Business Launching Lab...

And let’s say every week for the next 4 weeks you work through one of the modules.

Let’s say you REALLY apply what you’re learning and do the action plans connected to each workshop as you go through it.

Then what?

You could:
+ officially launch your business
+ double your engagement on your social platforms
+ create a free community that you LOVE serving that is full of warm leads for your offers
+ craft a BOMB offer that you know people will buy
+ layout your first full blown 4-6 week launch plan and have your content mapped out for well over a month
+ make 2,3,4 times your investment back

All in the next MONTH.

Would that be worth it to you? But PLEASE don’t do this if you aren’t going to take the action with the lessons. These results happen for the gals that fearlessly show up.

Who’s business is going to start taking off in 2020? You got time 👏🏼 in fact, my business first experienced growth and a profit the last 3 months of the year. It’s as possible as you let it be.

Drop the ✨ emoji below if you’re doing this thing!

Whoa- I’m FIGHTING with social media in this sea

Whoa- I’m FIGHTING with social media in this season. This is one of those things I feel extremely exposed sharing being that I run my business from social media and part of that is helping other women utilize social media as a tool for their business too #soifeelnaked

But here we go.

I don’t think social media IS bad. I think there is a lot of evil on social media. I also don’t think social media is good. But I think you can do really good and glorifying things on it.

Social media is grey. And to me— that feels dangerous sometimes. And in dangerous places, I feel more cautious.

Let’s be real, welcoming new life into this world so soon and sharing the responsibility with his dad to raise him... has my wheels turning. And I’m grateful because I think it’s God’s protection and provision of how intentional we are in our family.

Here is what I know— there is no doubt factual evidence tying a progression of depression, suicide, anxiety and comparison back to social media and the advancement of technology.

We have the world at our finger tips and we were never created to carry the burdens of the world (we know Who took that load #PTL).

And the sad part? If you don’t know everything going on in the world, many are now shamed for that.

At the same time, I think there is still so much we don’t know. With our generation being the first to really be raised up in the social media explosion, we have not lived full lives to see the magnitude of impact.

BUT I keep going back to “wisdom” and what the Bible says as I navigate this season. I don’t have to go to google to equip myself for this battle. Thank goodness. I get to go to something much more solid. Truth. Because being in His Word, digesting it and living it out equips me with the knowledge, insight and discernment to follow Him.

Instead of worrying about our followers on social media today, let’s focus on following Him.

Thanks for coming to my #tantalk today. I share this because I’m pretty certain you may be in a similar season 🤙🏼 comment below how you set boundaries around technology!

Me & the boys. Happy birthday sweet man. We love y

Me & the boys. Happy birthday sweet man. We love you!
