Adventures of Mommyhood
Hey folks! I just came off of the BEST WEEKEND EVER. Ky had her first recital and I’ve been in awe of her since. Her little group all went on stage, did their thang, and left...no tears! I'm pretty sure that is UNHEARD of! I just could not stop watching her little videos. And as… Continue reading …being strong
Hey folks! Have you ever found yourself dreading this question: "So what do you like to do for fun?" No? Just me? *shrugs* I've had THE most difficult time attempting to answer that question. My answer is always different! Like I legit don't know anymore. I tried to go in my memories and see what… Continue reading …finding a hobby
Hey folks! Long time. No post! I've been absolutely horrible with this blogging thing. Like I promise I had all the free time in the world - or so I thought - to write...But, Life. I digress.

But anyway, I wear my hair naturally -as in no chemicals, perms, etc.- and choose to leave Ky's hair alone. My… Continue reading …protecting your baby
Hi Folks! Hey, Ashley...How do you get things done when Ky's around? Great question Ashley! I don't. Nothing. Gets. Done. E V E R. I have approximately 2 (maaaaybe 2 1/2) hours to get anything started knowing that it will more than likely never be finished. And those hours work only on the weekends. It's… Continue reading ….putting baby in a corner
Hey folks! I absolutely HATE relying on others. Like if I had to choose between relying on someone to catch me during a trust fall or trusting that a tank full of sharks won't rip me to shreds, I'm picking the shark tank...EVERY TIME. Now that I have a daughter, the next thing that I… Continue reading …relying on yourself
