New Mommy!

I’m going to refocus my blog in the coming months as my life has taken a different turn. In November I gave birth to a healthy baby girl. I’ll be blogging more about life as a new mom, saving money, finding deals, photographing children, and the occasional ranting about stupid things that happen in the world. I'm also going to post a Product of the Day. This will either be something I can't live without or something I think looks cool

Being a new mom is hard! Not only to babies NOT come with instructions, but you’re forced to sink or swim… all on the most ridiculous sleep schedule ever.
This is how we should torture terrorists for info- put them on the mommy sleep schedule!

Okay, not really, but you get my drift. It’s rough. I have HUGE respect for all the single moms out there that do this on their own. No matter how rough a day you’ve had your heart is lifted when your baby smiles at you, but a little extra support of another adult human is a life saver.

I’d like to start my refocused blog with something fun…
You know you’re a new mom when…

-your Spock hearing skills trigger a milk let down because your husband/cat/dog is smacking in his sleep. (Yes, this actually happened).

-your sleep shirt is crustier than your burp cloth.

-you can vividly remember every explosive diaper your baby had today but you honestly have no idea when the last time you pooped was.

-you openly talk to other women about chapped nipples, in vivid detail.
So, for all you new mom’s out there… add to this list. It’ll be interesting I’m sure!

Product of the Day:


This is crazy funny. I don't have a boy so I have no idea if it works or not but you gotta give props for the product name!
