There’s something to be said for marriage and kids that changes you. For the better. Both hold up a mirror and show you the beauty + flaws […] Read more…

When Working Out Doesn’t Work Out
In my old life, I was a work out maven. Mostly when I was single. I worked out five days a week, two hours a day. I loved it. Sure, it was probably keeping me single but I was in shape! I looked good, y’all! Fast forward to my newlywed days. I used to get […] Read more…
If I Could Find The Time…
There are a few things I don’t get to do much of these days. Reading books and watching movies are on that list. I find myself way too busy these days to get to do much of that. The last book I read from start to finish was called “Me Too, Iguana”. It’s a book […] Read more…
Overwhelm? Totally Conquered!
Overwhelm. I was totally feeling the pressure recently at my son’s end of year school picnic. I started thinking about all that had to be done. I thought of all the things that could throw the plan off. I was totally talking myself into a “worst case scenario” situation. I knew I needed to make […] Read more…

And then I said “Why Not?”
It took becoming a mom for me to greet life with a “why not?”. My son just does stuff. He thinks it and he does it. He is just completely open to life. The kid has never met a stranger (we’re working on that). He walks into a room full of kids and his response […] Read more…
Easter 2014 – Full of cuteness
Another holiday weekend is behind us. I have a hard time believing that Easter was yesterday. It will be may before we know it and nearly half the year will be behind us. How is that possible? We had a wonderful Easter weekend. We got in some pictures with the Easter bunny on Saturday. My […] Read more…
Simple Rules for the Sick – ies
I am sick. I have the cooties. It sucks. This stoopid, yes stoopid cold virus is going around my family and it finally took me down. I feel like crud. It really kicks in how good it is to feel well when I’m sick. I’m so looking forward to this cold moving it’s way on […] Read more…
SAHM, You Want the Real?
If we never matured from toddlerhood, we’d be a hot mess. That’s the conclusion I’ve come to after being home with my babies for almost a month. I’m not going to lie, it hasn’t been easy. Kids are something else. They whine, cry, get super sensitive over the smallest things, stalk you and just plain […] Read more…
