I didn’t plan on posting today. I got a bit discouraged in my blogging journey, to be truthful with you. Why ? I started to compare my blog and social media pages to others…. don’t ever do that by the way. Comparison steals joy. I drew a blank last night and for the past couple of days trying to force a post. But I was looking up quotes about strength and growth on Pinterest and came across the bible verse: Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, who built his house on a rock. The rain came down, the floods came, and ..read more

It’s time to go pee pee poo poo on the potty. This is my statement with Cami every 30-60 minutes. Y’all potty training is one of the hardest things to teach your kids. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve cleaned my floor from pee and poo. It’s disgusting ! Not only that but actually cleaning the potty after it’s been used is atrocious especially if Cami has gone number 2. It literally makes me want to vomit. I worked at a nursing home before but something about cleaning your own child’s potty is disgusting. It’s been about 3wks of potty training and she’s starting to ..read more

Can I also get a happy meal with some extra MOM-shaming on the side ? Thanks. Y’all the other day one of my friends MOM-shamed me. The audacity ! I definitely felt some type of way. So here we are with this blog post while Cami and I stuff our face with chicken nuggets & fries. Hahaha. Enjoying our fries & nuggets Basically I was MOM-shamed for giving Cami chicken nuggets and fries. She said “if you don’t give Cami sugar and fast food she won’t ever crave it, plus she’d be healthy”. You know what, that sounds real lovely. Let me start by saying kudos to you a ..read more

Motherhood. It is not easy. I’m laying down in bed with Ryan, as he fights his sleep for the millionth time and I don’t know how to cope anymore. It’s late and I’m tired but I needed to vent. You don’t have to read any futher but if you do, just know it’s about to get really real. Ryan finally dozed off from crying for the millionth time and I feel so defeated I feel like I don’t know what I’m doing at times. And that right there makes me feel like a terrible mom. I know I’m the best mom for my kids but it’s hard. Everyone says it’ll get easier when they’re older . But will it ..read more

Lets get real ! Being a female means at some point you’ll get your period. “Hey it’s been about a month since I saw you last…” Aunt Flo. It’s inevitable. I haven’t had my period in what seems like lifetime ago due to being pregnant but I wanted to give some tips for dealing with Aunt Flo (aka your period) since I’m on my period now. First let’s start with the period tracking apps. I personally don’t like to just get my period without knowing so I use an app to track & project my periods to be prepared….also to not make anymore babies. Lol. No but seriously. I use Ovia Fe ..read more

Brazilian JiuJitsu. I’m going to be real honest with y’all….there are days where I absolutely HATE IT but will always support my hubs. That’s why he competed at this years first IBJJF(international Brazilian jiu-jitsu) NOLA OPEN 2019. First, this is a big deal because there hasn’t been a tournament held by IBJJF in New Orleans EVER. My hubs wanted to go back and compete in his hometown. Plus I decided it would be nice to see my family. Y’all he trained consistently hard for this tournament. No days off. All that training was worth it. We headed to Xavier University the day of ..read more

Who am I ? That is the ULTIMATE question isn’t it. I am a wife, mama, daughter, sister, friend, and so much more. So if I am all of those why am I asking “Who am I ?”. I am lost….not literally but I’ve lost my identity is what I mean. I’ve been so busy being a wife and a mom that I’ve lost my identity. I am not saying that I regret being a wife or a mom it’s the complete opposite. I LOVE it. I just miss an old part of who I was before all that and am trying to find a way to integrate some of me into the new me. I’m sure this applies to a lot of ya’ll out there. I’m longing ..read more
