Who Am I?

Hi! I'm Laura, a 30-something first-time mom raising her little dude by the beach in southern California. It's been quite a first year, and this is my way to try to make sense of it all. This is a safe space for all moms to get some laughs, recommendations and feel like they are not alone.

This whole blog thing is totally outside my comfort zone, but hey, so is being a mom. Motherhood has given me the itch to write. This is about sharing the good times, bad times and the small amount of knowledge I've gained in the last year that has helped me get through it all. I enjoy learning from others, and value hearing how other moms' perspectives on life. This is tough at times, and we all have to band together!  

By day, I am a nurse practitioner full time, and I absolutely love my job. I am married to the most amazing man who has turned in to the most amazing father. We are originally from good ol' upstate New York. My sweet little son, Carson, was born a month early in March 2019. We also have an adorable black lab mix doggie named Luna who brightens up our days, one lick at a time. 

Thanks for reading along!
