It’s LAUNCH DAY! Welcome!
Kick off your shoes, and pants if they aren’t your thing (they aren’t mine either), and stay awhile!
My name is Carly. I live in the mid-west and have two beautiful high energy children. I’m a stay at home mom and a college student studying in the criminal justice field.
I’m real, I’m clumsy, I’m messy, and I don’t have it all together. We don’t wear white clothes or go out to fancy restaurants. The bottom of the minivan I drive is probably covered in crumbs, dirt, and crayon wrappers. I’m not the mom with the white couch whose kids sit quietly in their new un-scuffed shoes while i visit with company.
Whether you’re the mom who fed her kids kale chips and quinoa today, or the mom who did mcdonalds drive through again for lunch, I hope you are able to find something you can relate to here. I’m starting ‘It’s Whine Time’ because I feel very strongly about motherhood, and the many aspects of parenting that a lot of us seem to overlook as we navigate our busy lives. I tend to stray from a lot of modern parenting, to a more natural approach, although I try to find a definite balance.
I’ll be sharing many things that hopefully you find interesting, informative, humorous, or that you can use in your life too. As much as I hope you like my blog though, I am my own person, and I do have my own feelings, thoughts, and opinions on things. I hope not to offend as I do plan on sharing some controversial issues in my topics as well.
I’ll be writing about, but not limiting myself to: reviews, parenting, my children and our own life experiences, DIY projects, cooking, baking, and activities with kids. I will eventually be expanding, so be on the lookout for updates on the Facebook page, Twitter, and YouTube channel! I’ll be posting a new blog post every Tuesday and Saturday. Which means our next blog post will be up tomorrow, 2/24. Enjoy!
