Welcome!

Hi friends, welcome to my little corner of the blogosphere (or whatever it’s called these days).  For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Nathalie.  Most people know me as a mom, and in truth of all the hats I wear that is the one that I take the most pride in.

I started this little blog as a place to write my thoughts on parenting, motherhood, relationships and life in general.  Nothing is off topic here. 

My life is a crazy, chaotic, beautiful mess and I wouldn’t have it any other way.  My husband Alex and I have created this wonderful life together and at the center of that are our three amazing children.  “E” is 6, “A” is 3.5 and “L” is 1.

For those of you wondering what you’re in for on this little blog, I can only tell you it will be real life.  I’m hopeful it will be full of beautiful images and funny stories that I will cherish looking back on, but if you’re looking for perfectly styled children, a spotless home, nightly gourmet meals, or Pinterest worthy parties you’re in the wrong spot. 

I love a good DIY project, I’m a self-proclaimed hobby addict, I enjoy making handmade gifts, I run a business while my kiddos sleep, but mostly I’m just trying to raise good human beings while keeping myself sane.

I've also surrounded myself with a tribe of amazing moms who I look up to and who inspire me daily.  My hope is to convince some of them to share their thoughts on here as well.  

I hope you stick around for a while!
