Motherhood, I’m just making it up as I go.

  • I have a toddler with a speech delay, and I am not ashamed.

    My goal with this page is to be transparent. I want to be as relatable to other parents as possible. Our life isn’t sunshine and daisies. Sometimes our sink is full of dishes, sometimes I don’t make us very nutritious meals, sometimes I get far more angry than I need to. So here I am,…

  • You can’t pour water (or wine) from an empty glass…

    That’s one of my favorite sayings. It’s true, both literally and metaphorically you know. Sometimes we get so caught up in doing things for others we drain ourselves dry. Suddenly you’re spiteful and don’t want to do anything for ANYONE else. Motherhood is one example of this for sure. We constantly give for our children…

    Bless this mess…

    I hate my kids toys! Seriously though, every time I have them cleaned up there is some how this incredible explosion and there they all are again. G is in the process of moving in to his big boy room and out of the nursery, currently he plays in there and takes some of his…

  • Admitting Your Kid Needs Help Is Hard

    In just over two hours a representative from G’s future school district will be here to do a speech evaluation on him. See unfortunately G doesn’t really talk. He knows words and has receptive language but just doesn’t speak other than a few signs and the occasional “Mom”. At first I just chalked it up…

    Twenty-Seven

    Today I am another year older. Happy Birthday to me! Yesterday I had someone ask, “So are you turning 25 again?” The question made me chuckle, but then it also made me sad. Why do we hate aging? As children we just can’t wait to be 16 then 18 then 21 and then all of…

  • Life Can’t Be Planned

    It’s funny how much can change in ten years. I mean ten years ago I was seventeen and I knew it all. I had all kinds of plans, and no one could stop me. Ha! Ten years later most of those plans didn’t happen, or at least not the way I expected. I didn’t expect…

  • A Step On The Path

    Today I did a thing that is completely normal; I brought G to a daycare center. So why am I writing about this you may wonder? Well as I mentioned in a previous post we have been blessed to have someone in the family do all of the care for the boys outside of us.…

    Yes I Breastfeed, No I don’t care if it offends you.

    Hello Dumb Controversial Topic. Did you know humans are mammals? Guess what we are! That means when a mother has a baby her breast (typically) produce milk to feed her babe. Ain’t that dandy?! Wait you mean boobs are not just for sexual purposes?! Haha nope. I breastfeed G for almost his first year until…

  • Daycare Anxiety

    For the last almost 18 months we have been blessed to have a family member caring for G and now Tater-tot since I went back to work to help us save some money and feel comfortable with who is watching them. Unfortunately having two under two is just a bit much for them and honestly…

  • Sunday Mornings

    Sunday is my favorite day, my absolute favorite. You might be asking why, why would I love Sunday when most people just look at as “the last day of the weekend” or “Monday Eve” or something to the effect of crap I have to go back to work tomorrow. I love Sundays because that is…
