About

hello! i’m Alicia

Wife, mother, & FRIEND

I’m a bit of an oxymoron…an introverted conversationalist, a modernist old-soul, an optimistic worrywart, and a self-driven procrastinator. I even confuse myself sometimes! Above all of these things though, there is one thing I am that I cannot deny – and that is, a Mom. I left my job as an OB Registered Nurse to embrace my true calling…raising my babies! I am here to break the “homemaker” stigma. Yes, we live in a feminist world but creating a cozy, welcoming, safe-haven we call home is a beautiful thing! I created this blog to share my favorite ideas with you so you can avoid trial & error, save time researching products, and to give you a fresh dose of “momspiration”! We all know life is hard and it takes a village, let’s do this together!

get to know me

These are a few of my favorite things…

  1. Making memories with my three little ones…number one of course!
  2. Food! Especially when it involves date night with my hubby & a new restaurant ๐Ÿ™‚
  3. Sitting outside in the morning before the house wakes up with a hot cup of coffee.
  4. All things pregnancy, childbirth, and babies!
  5. Cooking and putting a beautiful meal on the table…although I have to suppress this passion a bit and keep things simple at this stage of life.
  6. CATS, CATS, CATS, CATS, & MORE CATS.
  7. Northern Michigan – my happy place.
  8. A wall of books, house plants, nature, & the crackling of a wood burning fire.
  9. Travel!!! My travel bucket list is looooonng!
  10. Golf – one of my first loves. Started playing at 4 years old!
