About Me

The basics: I’m happily married to Tom, I’ve got three kids: Ethan – the oldest, and twin girls – Kaylee and Sienna and I’m home-schooling, going back to college and doing tons of other things that make me wish I could live in a padded room. This blog is about being a mom and wife and crazy woman.

This blog is also about eating disorders and self-esteem. I’m a girl who has spent most of my life hating myself – especially the way I look. Recently, I decided that, gosh darn it, it’s time to start loving me for what and who I am. I’ve been repressing my dreams and desires because I don’t believe in myself. And I’m sick of it! I was hoping that I could just suddenly wake up one day (on my 30th birthday to be exact) loving myself. Yeah. Not happening! I’ve made progress, but every day (sometimes every minute of every day) has been a battle to force myself to see what a beautiful, talented woman I am. I know most women – particularly moms – can relate to the incredible pressure we are under to be perfect in every way. My posts are about how imperfect I am, and that it’s more than ok to have flaws. So grab a tub of Nutella or a cup of coffee (just don’t expect me to drink it!) and laugh or cry – or laugh till you cry? – with me as I keep on chuggin’.
