Hi, I’m Alexis

Nice to meet you! Thanks for visiting my page. If you’re here, I’m going to guess that you’re a new(ish) parent, like me. When I had my baby, I entered into motherhood without a single clue how to take care of a baby and raise a child. All my siblings are way older than I am, so I had no experience with little kids at all. One of the thoughts I had in the hospital after giving birth was, “Are they really going to let me leave the hospital with this baby?!” Full of love but utterly clueless, I fumbled around figuring out how to change a diaper and trying my hardest not to give up on nursing the very first day. 

Some time has passed since then, and I am now the mother of a 16-month-old beautiful baby girl. I’ve managed to keep this magnificent little human alive, healthy, and safe, and I couldn’t be more happy.

There is a lot to learn when it comes to parenting, especially with babies and toddlers, so my goal here is to connect with new moms and dads and provide my insight, ideas, and some funny parenting stories to you all in hopes of making you feel not entirely alone.

I post something new every Friday. My featured posts are below. To see all of my articles, click here.
