When Luna shared that she wished for an “Under the Sea” themed birthday party this year, in typical Natalie fashion, I created my Pinterest board and the creative juices started flowing. Little did I know, how crazy the last couple of weeks would be and how tapped out I would actually feel. Let’s rewind on […]
So as some of you know, I was nominated for a competition and I’ve been incessantly asking for support via votes to keep me in the running for a chance to win the title of “Super Mom.” I find myself asking, what does this title mean to me and how am I to be chosen […]
Wynwood Street Art Hola! It’s been a little while so let’s catch up. Back in March, I did something crazy… after much back and forth, I planned a short getaway to a beach destination with a girlfriend. It took some time trying to decide whether I should take my kids or not. This year has […]
The other night, I went on a Wegman’s run and those close to me know that I do enjoy an hour or two walking the aisles pondering over snack choices and gluten-free items to try… and don’t get me started on the assortment of cheeses. One thing I don’t enjoy though is squeezing this therapeutic […]

Happy New Year! I know it’s been a little while since my last post but will you forgive this single mama whose holiday hit her hard. While I want to just blame the overwhelming emotions that slapped me at the close of 2018, it was the taking care of two sick kids for two weeks […]
You know how the holiday season can illicit an array of emotions… on one hand, happiness and good cheer and, on the other, stress and nostalgia… welcome to my world for the past few weeks. This past weekend, I finally tackled some Christmas shopping which, contrary to what one might think, I actually really do […]
As you guys can imagine, the transition from having one child to having two is not an easy one. You mix that up with the brand new single mom status and it can be a recipe for some disastrous moments. One of the things I am trying to keep top of mind is that although […]
One of the things that gets me excited about a new season is switching things up in my little one’s closet. Unfortunately, money is an object, as it is with most, and so I can’t completely create a brand new, season-appropriate wardrobe so what do I do? I get creative. I know some parents don’t […]
