Today is my 30th post and while it has been difficult I learned a lot and become much more confident. I am really proud of myself for sticking it out for the full 30 days! My biggest take away from this challenge is I can do anything I focus on. Because this was the main […]

A Little Pinch
Out of all the relationships I was exposed to growing up my grandparents (nana and papa) seemed the happiest from my perspective. They always said thank you and I appreciate you. They made a great team but were also strong individuals. They also weren’t afraid to always show each other some affection. I don’t know […]
I don’t have time too…
Trying to blog every day and then trying to vlog on top of that made me realize some of the things I could have cut out a while ago. It just happened naturally. I knew I had to get these posts out so I found spare moments in the day to do them. I don’t […]

Why to work on two ideas at the same time
When working on writing my kids book I got stumped. Every time I picked it back up I remembered I was stumped and moved on to the next task. I ended up not working on it at all for a week. My husband took the boy out for a walk to give me some time […]

Yup I am talking about poop! Don’t worry I won’t get into the grosser details. This is more to share a great tip that had I not know would have made that first longer bathroom trip a lot scarier. I had heard stories about how scary it was for some first time moms. It did […]
Teething magic!
Really I should call this distraction magic because we thought Roland was teething for like 2 months. Turns out he was just fussy or warm. At one point when we thought it was teething I read to give them a wet or frozen washcloth. That sounds like a good way to end up with a […]
