The past couple weeks have been chaotic to say the least. I have wanted to write a blog, but I have had so much going on. From Thanksgiving gatherings to trying to keep up with JJ’s ever changing routines and milestones, I have definitely been on my toes! The past couple weeks have been full […]
A couple of years ago, I used to work at least 40 hours a week at a fast food restaurant. I would work from 10:00am until 9:00pm (open to close). My break would usually be around 2:00pm, and I would get an hour. I remember how ready I would be to clock out for that […]
This past week has been kind of rough for us. JJ has had eczema on his left cheek ever since he was 4 months old (that makes 3 months now). Before it got cold outside, over the counter creams like Cetaphil and Aveeno Eczema Treatment kept it under control, but when the weather turned cold, […]
Lately my boyfriend and I have been talking about traveling and finding fun activities to do as a family. Talking about fun places to go reminded me of when we went to Virginia last year (when I was nine weeks pregnant) with some friends to go biking on the Virginia Creeper Trail. That was the […]
Do you remember when you were in grade school and you had that one person (or group of friends) that you did everything with? I remember going out to the mall, watching movie/show marathons, and pulling all nighters with my best friends. Those were the days! When you become an adult, friendships like that tend […]

Knitting is very therapeutic to me, and I have been knitting ever since middle school. My sister taught me how to knit when she was in a knitting […]

I think home is anywhere where you feel completely safe, happy, and at peace. Also, home is where you should feel the most comfortable being yourself. For my whole life (up until […]
Last month (October 19, 2019), JJ turned six months old, and for the past few weeks, I have been kept on my toes! If JJ is not sleeping, he is on the move! From rolling, to crawling (only backwards), sitting up, and just getting into everything, he is a handful. I have absolutely loved watching […]
We LOVE Mexican food in this house, and tonight I made some steak fajitas that really hit the spot for us! They are super easy to make, and I promise your family will be begging for seconds! Ingredients: 2 bell peppers (any color) 1/2 of an onion 2 tablespoons of ground cumin 2 tablespoons of […]
I cannot believe that this month will be my sixth month of blogging! I have loved documenting my life as a new mother and sharing my experiences with you guys. Within the past six months I have had my share of triumphs, trials, laughs, and even tears. I have loved documenting my sweet baby boy’s […]
