Mama Care

We all know we need it and would be better off with it but how exactly do you find or make time for yourself, especially if there are little ones ruling your life? It can be extremely hard but if you don't make yourself a priority then you can possibly be lead down a dark,…

In the Trenches-Potty Training 🚽

My youngest is 2 and a half and we're getting very close to that time in her life where she needs to learn how to use a toilet. I mean I guess she could wear pull ups a little longer but it will probably just make things easier to get into the trenches of training…

School is back in full swing. If you read my last post then you know how I feel about the new school year. Needless to say I'm a little bummed summer break is over 🙁 But on the up side schedules and routines are back in full force!! Yippee!!! I absolutely love being on a…

Expectations of a Mom-Made by a Mom

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I'm taking a break from the regularly scheduled program to talk to you today about expectations.

"Mommy you go to school?!"  Why yes, yes I do.  In fact, both my husband and I are currently going back to school online.  We balance, or more like juggle, life all while trying to better ourselves so we can better our family.  My husband works a full time job and a part time job…

Summertime Slump

Momming Ain’t Easy

For as long as I could remember, I have always wanted to be a mom.  I have always loved babies and I wanted a lot of my own. I remember distinctly telling my mom that I wanted 6 kids when I was older because I wanted a big, close knit family.  No one ever mentioned…
