The Scariest Hood Out There

Motherhood is quite literally the scariest hood out there. I mean, we have these tiny humans that we created (or became guardians of through marriage, adoption, whateva), and we are in charge of making sure that no harm comes to them during their life on this Earth with us, all while teaching them to grow into respectable, smart, kind, loving human beings! 

Being a mother is much more than being someone's snack bitch 😂 To these little humans, we are a: chef, Dr., maid, teacher, handy woman, chauffeur, referee, detective, best friend, and most importantly, their Mother. They put all their faith & trust in us to guide them down the correct path in life and ensure that they grow up to be the smartest, kindest human beings out there. And we make sure to shield them from all the dark & scary corners of the world.

Some days are amazing and beautiful, where you think to yourself, "These kids are going to grow up to be the sweetest, most loving individuals!". Now these are the days where they are getting along with each other, being sweet giving hugs & kisses, and just plain old being a most well-behaved child they can be.  But on other days, those very same kids make you want to scream from the top of  your lungs and rip your hair out 😅 These days are the days where they won't stop fighting each other, talking back, not listening for 💩. You know what days I'm talking about 😅 Now those days, those are part of what makes Motherhood so scary and tough lol. 

On those days, you just need to take a little breather for yourself, maybe drink some wine lol, and remember that it's all worth it. Because really, there's no better satisfaction than watching your kids grow into respectable, amazing, loving human beings and knowing that you are the reason they're that way 💕

Motherhood may be the scariest hood, but it's the best hood that I definitely wouldn't change for a thing. To all my mamas out there, you got this 💪 enjoy Motherhood! 🖤

Until next time,
XO Mama Unfiltered

How I'm Manifesting my 2021 Goals

 Every year since I was younger, I've always made a list of goals I planned on achieving for that New Year. And I mean, I'm pretty sure most of us associate a New Year with goal setting. Am I right? Some goals are way out there and seem unattainable, while others are simple and easy. But as I get older, I'm learning some tricks and tips that help me attain my goals and stay motivated. I know some you put there reading this will think it's all just a bunch of bologna, and some of you will take this to heart. Just know this, these are the things that work for ME, so they may not work for you, and that's okay. Find what works for you and stick to it! 💪🏼 1. Be clear with what you want.  Instead of saying "I wish" or "I want", say "I will" when it comes to what you want to achieve or gain. For example, if you want to lose 10 lbs, say "I WILL lose 10 lbs." This is your way of putting out into the Universe that you WILL lose that w

How I Weaned Isabella Off Pacifiers & Bottles

Once your baby turns 1, it’s almost as if they’ve crossed that magical threshold, the one where they’re no longer a baby, but also not quite a toddler. You know the one, the one where they all of a sudden want to run and walk and climb, they want to feed themselves and do everything they see everyone else doing. Yeah, that one.  Well it turns out Bella crossed that threshold way before she even turned one. And I guess that’s to be expected, seeing as she has 3 older brothers to look up to. So it should come as no surprise when I say, I weaned Bella off of pacifiers and bottles before she turned 13 months!! 🎉  Now who wants in on my secret?! Lol So first things first, I should probably disclose that Bella started weaning herself off of pacifiers around 10 months. And what I mean by that is, we stopped taking her pacifiers with us on outings and left her pacifier in her crib throughout the day. The only times she’d use her pacifier was at nap time and bedtime. That’s

To My Daughter

Image
We made it! The BIG ONE! 1 whole year of life completed, and it literally flew by 😭 you are my only daughter and last baby, so it’s understandable why your 1st birthday is bittersweet. The day you were born, I was over the moon! I mean, I finally had my baby girl in my arms!! 😍 the day I had been waiting forever for had finally come! I’m not gonna lie though, when they placed you on my chest, I had to double check that you were 100% a baby girl 😂 There’s something so special about having a daughter though, a different kind of bond that is formed. I have special bonds with your brothers, but having you has caused me to form a different type of bond. I don’t yet know how to explain it, but it’s one that I hope will continue to grow over the years. I absolutely cannot wait for those mother daughter bonding dates, inside jokes and all around good times. Looking into the future now, I see us having an unbreakable, loving, caring bond. As it is, you’re already a mamas girl, al
