Family and Kids
It may sound harsh but my tolerance for unnecessary bullshit has rapidly declined since I became a Mom. I think to outsiders it may appear that I have become selfish but I’m at a point in my life where I’m just trying to keep my head above water. And be the best mother I can be. … [Read more…]
I think the key to a happy marriage is to get rid of the picture in your head of what a happy marriage should look like. Like erase it. Permanently. And while your at it, I would also let go of the image of what your marriage looked like before children because that has also … [Read more…]
So, much to my surprise, I am actually getting a little “break” this spring break. I pulled a Hail Mary on Sunday and called my parents who live about 3 hours away and asked if they wanted to “maybe, possibly, no pressure of course (hold my breath),” watch Carlos for part of the week. My … [Read more…]
Before I became a Mom I was told all about the highlights of parenting. The ups. The downs. The laughs. The tears. The nights of sleep deprivation. And of course, all the poop I would be wiping on a regular basis. I felt like I had a decent grip on what being a Mom was … [Read more…]

I would call myself a very cautious and over-protective Mom in general but my husband would probably say that a better description is “up-tight” and “controlling.” I run … [Read more…]
I have made a decision. I have decided that its time for shit to get real and get my “hotness” back. I have just faced the harsh reality that I have fallen into the dreaded “Mom” category where my go to outfit is yoga pants and a sweatshirt and I don’t even do yoga. … [Read more…]
I’m always hearing to wait until my child says or does something to really embarrass me in public. Honestly, I always thought people were being dramatic and exaggerating because after all, they are kids, and everything they say and do is super cute anyway? I’m also pretty quick on my feet and it takes a … [Read more…]
In my house, “Honey are you on your way home” is code for “Get your ass home, NOW.” Today was one of those days. In fact, I think I’m just going to start calling all Mondays, “Mayday Monday,” since they always end with a distress call. I cannot believe that I am uttering these words … [Read more…]
