I Survived My First 30 Days As A Mother

"When a baby is born so is a mother" - Unknown Being a mother is serious business. Here I am coming from pregnancy where I slept almost 14 hours a day only to wake up and not feel I haven't went to sleep at all. To taking 30-60 minute cat naps and calling them sleep. Today makes 30 days that I have been a mother. I survived the first month of forever. Want to know a secret? I had Lennox on Monday and was supposed to be released on Wednesday. I begged the doctor for an extra day, not to have Read more [...]

This Labor Day Take Advantage of No DWI Free Labor Day Rides

I could give statistics on how many DWI's were given last year, or worst yet how many people lost their lives to drunk drivers last year, or I could just focus on a solution. This year it comes in the form of Sutliff & Stout. For the past two years, Sutliff & Stout have paid for hundreds of taxi and ride-sharing rides in Texas. There motto is "If we prevent even one accident, it’s money well spent". This year is the same: Labor Day only. Monday, September 3rd from 5pm – Tuesday, Read more [...]

Why Aren’t You Receiving The Love You Are Simply Trying To Give?

Once humans are past the bloom of youth, they began to crave the type of love that we were created for: Eros. Some people search their whole lives for this romantic type of love and for the most part it is very trial and error. Most people pull from what they have seen from the adults they grew up with. Some have tried to mimic movies and books that they have read. Whatever the case is, this love is a learned love, you learn to give it and you learn to receive it. Sounds easy. The problem is, Read more [...]

First Time Mommy Chronicles: Losing Baby Fat

Three weeks, two mom boobs, and one fupa later, I am standing in the mirror looking at my new body. We are so pressured to snap back. There are a million articles on how to "lose weight fast after your baby", that women are not healing properly. Granted I have always been a bigger girl. But If you know me, you know something I'm extremely proud of is the fact that I lost over 80lbs before and swore to myself I would never see 275 on any scale again. Although I had gained some of my weight back before Read more [...]

One Week Postpartum: I Underestimated Everything

I have been trying to write this blog all week and haven't found a way to organize my words yet so you're just going to have to take this verbal diarrhea and process it how you see fit. I read an article from xonecole where Cardi B says she Underestimated being a mommy. She goes on to state that she even dropped out of the Bruno Mars tour because she wasn't physically ready nor [emotionally] ready to leave her baby behind. The article goes on to mention other celeb moms who struggled with postpartum Read more [...]

Death & Delivery: My Nightmare

One thing we do not like to talk about as a society and understandably so is death. We are super desensitized by it, especially in this social media age. People post, re-post, tweet,  and retweet videos of people dying everyday. However, we still as a whole do not like to talk about it. If you even began to speak about it people will say "don't speak that over your life", "why are you so morbid", "why would you put that out in the universe". We don't want to think about our loved one dying or taking Read more [...]

Highly Acclaimed Digital Docu-Series Unveils Season Two: Will You Marry Me?

The funniest thing I've seen lately on social media is the plethora of women who are asking Ciara (Harris) Wilson, american singer and songwriter, what her prayer was to God that moved Russell Wilson, NFL quarterback for Seattle Seahawks, to propose and marry her. "Give us the prayer sis" they say. But I never see anyone ask for Russell's perspective. Well that's why Milton Lawrence Jr. created Will You Marry Me. Now he is releasing Season two in Houston and you can attend the exclusive screening. Read more [...]

I Hate Being Pregnant

If you know me, you know that I can be a bit of a brat. I love my freedom, sushi, a good cocktail, and of course travel. However; this isn’t me saying that I’m upset about not being able to go to Bali this winter, or the fact that I can’t even take the edge off my day by having cocktails and sushi with friends. This is me stating that: Every pregnancy is different, and every woman has the GOD GIVEN right to experience it differently. For the women who are unable to have children, or who struggles Read more [...]
