Be A Stay At Home Mom Boss And Take Responsibility For Your Happiness

July 5, 2018

Always Alone At Home With The Kids I was over it. After being a full time stay-at-home-mom for a little over two years and raising two beautiful but extremely demanding toddler girls, I was ready to throw in the towel. Actually, I did throw the proverbial towel but unfortunately it didn't make it 'in' because of an interception from The Big Guy Upstairs. He tends to do that. Faith-2 Keri-0 My husband was working two jobs and was gone almost every single day of the week. Literally. You ...

Break All The Rules And Embrace Your Motherhood Weight Gain

June 25, 2018

I gained weight. Not just a few extra pounds or a tiny belly pudge after one too many desserts. I’m officially what people call a “thick girl”. I wouldn’t exactly call myself overweight but I will say I have gained enough weight to call myself a curvy momma. And guess how I feel about it? I love it. I love the extra weight that I have gained in the past month and a half. Call me crazy, but I do.   Most people would be mad at their selves for putting on more ...

10 Ways To Stay Sane As A Stay At Home Mom

June 19, 2018

SAHM: Not As Easy As It Sounds Working as a stay at home mother is an experience that no one can fully relate to until they were one themselves. Most people envy the thought of a mother being able to stay at home with their children every day, thinking to themselves “That must be the life”. ​You may catch snide remarks from others who motion that it must be easy, stress free and how “lucky you are to be able to be home all day with the kids”. Well, I would say they at least got one ...

A Letter To The Lonely Stay At Home Mom

May 19, 2018

Dear Mama, As a stay at home mom, I know it can be lonely at times, especially if your husband is always at work.   My situation is a little different from others. I am alone more than MOST stay at home moms. My husband works full time three days a week (12 hour shifts) at a hospital, and on his off days he works 8 hour shifts at a family run real estate office. My husband never really gets a day off. Every once in a while (perhaps every three weeks) we will be ...

A Healthy Habit I Just Can’t Give Up As A Happy Stay At Home Mom

May 18, 2018

  This stay at home mom is feeling a bit stressed out this week... This week has been a bit overwhelming for me as a stay at home mom. 'Overwhelming' is my most tactful way of describing how I almost lost my marbles. I've had my share of bad days but these past few days had me contemplating the strength of my patience and sanity all over again. Big Girl is potty training right now and, as most mothers who have gone through the ever-so-delightful experience of potty training a two ...

I Don’t Miss The Life I Lived Before Becoming A Mother

May 18, 2018

I was having a rather thoughtful conversation with someone recently who asked if I missed the freedom I had before becoming a stay at home wife and mother.  This was a great question because I know at the time the person who asked me this, was able to see the look on my face of frustration as I juggled both of my toddler girls through the mall during our lunch date. My hair was in a messy bun under a visor that was suppose to mask the ”effort” it took to do it. I wore a loose shirt for easy ...

Overwhelmed With Your Gigantic To-Do List? Tap Out!

May 18, 2018

I have so much on my plate right now it would be an understatement to say I was overwhelmed. People might think that being a stay-at-home mom is an easy lifestyle but contrary to popular belief it is not. Being a stay-at-home-mom is a J-O-B. We just get paid differently. Our pay is through cuddles, hugs and appreciation. ​But that is for another conversation. On top of making sure my toddlers don’t strangle each other over the only Peppa Pig toy in the home (since the rest have expectedly ...

As you may know, there is a hurricane causing quite a stir and boy, she is MAD! She goes by the name Irma and she is a mean, quick-winded force of nature threatening to take down anything and anyone in her path. I don’t know about you, but I am not trying to get in her way.

Keep This In Mind To Choose The Best Car Seat

May 18, 2018

Deciding on a car seat for your little one can be a daunting task for some moms. I know this because I was one of those moms. I remember when I was a mommy-to-be researching through out the night and comparing car seat models and brands. I had no idea where to start or if the reviews I read online for each car seat was honest. I constantly had a sea of questions rolling in and out of my mind. Should I get a separate infant car seat? Should I use the one that comes with the stroller I plan on ...
