Hello, I have just realized that today is the day I woke up and wanted to write again. After so long I’m finally in a place where the ground is stable beneath me. Where I look in the mirror and don’t hate who I see. The last time I wrote anything on this blog I… Continue reading Finding Accountability
An Empty Shell
Hello Readers, This post comes is a necessity to breathe again and not as a simple blog post to explain an adventure of motherhood as most have been. I had a check up with my midwife this morning.

Ready for Motherhood

Now that I’m a mom being able to sit in the coffee shop by myself with a… Continue reading At the Coffee Shop

Last night I couldn’t have been more of a jackass to my husband, and after I made things extremely awkward with him…I started in on myself. I’ll have you know I haven’t stopped fully. Last night and early this morning I had so… Continue reading Adjustments
My decision to be a SAHM
Hello Readers, I haven’t written in the past week because my daughter, Tegan, came home from the hospital this past Sunday. My husband and I have been what we consider pleasantly sleep deprived having Tegan home with us. Before she was born we had discussed that I would stay at home with her and Alix… Continue reading My decision to be a SAHM
First Guilt Trip of Motherhood
Hello Readers, My daughter isn’t even two weeks old I can safely say I’ve already experienced my first guilt trip from strangers and myself. I’m referring to how my daughter is being fed.
