WELCOME TO MY LIFE

Welcome to the ramblings of my motherhood adventure. My name is Julie and I am the wife to my husband, Steve, and mother to our one year old son, Logan. This journey of motherhood started on May 22, 2013 at 3:49p.m. All of a sudden this gooey, warm, smushy-faced baby boy was thrown onto my chest and my world was turned upside down. From that moment on, I was "mom." I didn't quite know what it meant to be a mother and how much it would affect my life, but I can tell you this for sure: I will continue to doubt myself and worry that I'm doing it all wrong for the rest of my life.

Logan is my world. He's the first thing I think about in the morning (I'll admit that at the moment a big reason is because I wake up to his screams EVERY DAY. I don't know why he never wakes up happy) and the last thing I think about before going to bed at night. From the moment our day starts, I'm questioning my every move and decision. I mean I even question what I choose to feed him for breakfast. WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?? I so desperately want to the best mother possible so I try to make the best decisions for him and do my best to raise him right. Then, if he gets upset or we have an especially rough day, I immediately question everything I did that day. I must have done something wrong, right? Molding a little human being is a stressful job!

At the end of the day though I'm thankful for every moment I get to spend with him. God chose me to be his mother and I'm going to give him my all. I'm going to treasure the good, the bad, and the ugly and share them all with you here.

Welcome into our little world.
