Saturday Mornings Are the Best!
Every day I wake up early to take the puppy out, then feed the pup, then out again to finish his business. Then, it’s on to the kiddos and the start of our very busy day. First, it’s baths, then the fight of getting dressed and it’s never in the right clothes or the right sweater, o and let’s not get started on the socks, mommy those don’t match! So, it’s the battle of finding matching socks! Then it’s downstairs for breakfast. One kid wants the same thing every morning, chocolate toast, so that’s easy, but the other one, omg Heaven forbid if you give him the same thing two…

More to Love!
When I had my first son, I fell so in love with him I couldn’t imagine loving another child as much. In fact, it scared me thinking about the possibility of having another child, but not loving that child as much. It scared me so much I almost didn’t want another child, but knew my son needed a sibling. I didn’t want him to grow up being lonely or spoiled. Then, I found out I was pregnant with another boy! I wanted a girl this time around since it will more than likely be my last time pregnant, so my emotions took over and I cried for about a week.…

Step-Parenting: The Struggle is Real
Being a step parent is not easy and I won’t even try to lie and say it is! It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever experienced in my entire life! And it should be! Well if you ask me that is, I think as step parents we have to prove ourselves worthy and I personally think we should have to! Now let me explain! I came from a family with a step parent so I know a thing or two about it! The only difference is, my step parent came into our lives assuming he deserved our respect, deserved our loyalty, and our love! And because he assumed, he deserved it,…

Hold ‘Em a Little Tighter
Every morning I get woken up by a happy little guy playing in his crib. All smiles while he looks into the camera and says “mama, mama” over and over. Every day he is excited to get out of his crib, get some grub and run around the house and even more excited if we leave the house to drive around town. But not today… Today was different. Today the big guy didn’t wake up until I went to wake him at 9:49. He wasn’t smiling and he wasn’t playing picaboo with his blankie. Instead he simply handed me the blanket and sat back down. When he finally stood up…

Today Was a Rough Day
How can being at home with your baby all day ever be a rough day? That’s what I used to think every time I heard a stay at home mom complaining about her life. Every time one would say, omg let me tell you….and then go into this rant about how they couldn’t do this or that because of the kids. To another stay at home mom that in turn then complains about how she didn’t want to come back from the beach house. I kid you not, I got so annoyed about them complaining and being so unhappy with what I thought was a perfect life-not working in corporate…
