It’s okay to want to be a working mom. No, really–it is! Today’s post is about being a working mom, because I am one. That does not mean that I believe all moms should or should not work. It does not mean that being a stay at home mom is worse or better than working. […]
In honor of us being on vacation at the beach this week, I thought I’d post a free beach trip packing list for beach trips with kids!! This is our 5th beach trip with one or two kids, and by this point, we’ve gotten our packing pretty much down. The first two years,, we went […]

We’ve now done so many beach trips with kids that planning and packing for it almost comes second nature to me. At first, we always had family along to assist and enjoy, […]
Finding romantic moments with your husband in the midst of motherhood can seem pretty impossible some days. If we’re being honest here, it can feel impossible most of the time. I don’t know about you, but there are days when I look at my husband at 5 PM and say “I haven’t even kissed you […]
If you don’t follow me over on IG (@thisaveragemom –come hang out!), then you don’t know that our child care situation drastically changed as of last week. For the past FOUR years, my in-laws watched our kids (well, 4 years ago Mav didn’t exist yet, but you know what I mean). And as of last […]
