Hello! You're here! Welcome!

My goal for this blog is for it to be a resource for other moms like me - moms who:

  • Are business owners/entrepreneurs

  • Don’t want to have to sift through the sea of search results

  • Can’t stand going on those message boards on baby sites

  • Don’t have time to read all the books

  • Like nice things

  • Still want to have a life of their own when possible

  • This isn’t as vital but I’m an older mom (I’m 41) and will talk about a lot of things related to my age

  • More than anything want to maintain a sense of self

Are you going to spend time going through reviews and product comparisons? Are you going to take to social media to crowd source? Will you want to ask your mom friends for advice too? Sure and I encourage you to do that! My biggest and best resource has been my friends who are moms who are either at the same stage I am or who have been moms longer than I’ve been.

Here’s my first tip: It can be very very isolating being a new mom so DO NOT BE AFRAID TO ASK FOR HELP AND GUIDANCE FROM THE PEOPLE YOU KNOW.

If there’s one thing I learned when I miscarried eight years ago it’s that I was not and am not alone and someone out there has been through the same trials/tribulations I have.

So that’s why I’m here. That’s why this blog is going to happen. I’ll be honest, I hmm-ed and haw-ed when it came to starting this baby up, mostly because I didn’t think anybody cared what I think or would be that interested. I also want to add that I'm not doing this to try and become a mom blogger (though if any brands out there wants to send me things that are of use to me/my child to try or review, I’m always open to that) but ultimately if I can reach or help just one new mom out there with all this? Then it’s all worth it. 

Stay tuned, the blog posts, they are a-comin.

Parenting Survival Tip: Let It Go

After a conversation with one of my best friends the other night about letting go and realizing what priorities are, I thought I’d share one of the tougher lessons I had to learn. It’s been a theme lately - letting go - with things going on in my life in general and of course with raising The Baby.

This post can also be subtitled, “Hamilton: A Tabbulous Soundtrack” because there’s been a few gems from the musical and its official podcast that have been mantras that I’ve even made into calligraphy projects!

A list of things I've learned over the past 11 months.

Theo turns 1 on May 1st. I can’t think of an appropriate reaction other than, “Holy shit.” The Husband and I have managed to keep a baby healthy and alive for a little over 11 months and we’re about to celebrate his first huge milestone.

In the past almost-year, I’ve made a few… I guess you can call them observations and notes to myself about what it’s been like to have and take care of a baby. It’s a fairly long list, I’ll try to keep it succinct.
