Motherhood

Welcome!

Hi there! Welcome to my blog. My name is Susie and I’m super excited to be sharing all things motherhood, homemaking, and productivity related with you. Here’s a little about me and my family:

My hubby and I have been married for 9 years. We have moved so many times during the last decade and I wouldn’t have it any other way. We love a good adventure and a fresh start. We have a hard time staying put for too long. Although we love moving to new places, we finally settled down for a while in beautiful central VIrginia. We just bought our first home a few months ago and we are working hard to get settled in. So I’ll definitely be sharing a little about our new home soon!

After 7 years of life just the two of us, we decided it was time to add to our family. We got pregnant and found out we would be having a little girl. Emily Grace was a preemie who was born at just 34 weeks. She had to spend a few weeks in the NICU but thankfully she was able to overcome so much and is now perfectly healthy. 

So now I’m a stay at home mama to a beautiful, busy, and sweet 1 ½ year old girl. She’s everything I never knew I needed. I went from having a career to a stay at home mama/homemaker overnight. I couldn’t be more grateful or love being home more, but it has definitely been a huge change. I’ve learned so much and finally feel like I’m getting the hang of this!

All I want to do through my blog is encourage other mamas! I definitely don’t know everything but I want to share as I’m learning. I’m obsessed with creating new systems and routines to make our home run smoothly. I love helping Emily continue to grow and learn. And I’m always looking for ways to do things in the most productive, effective, and quickest way possible. 

So, let’s be friends! I’ll be posting regularly on here and over on my instagram as well. I’m super excited to get to know you better!

A little Friday cleaning motivation✨ Comment “ clean ” for all of my cleanings favs!Started summer with everyone being sick in our house 😵‍💫 I’m so thankful that we’re all feeling better finally! I’m desperately trying to get the germs out of our house so l’ve been doing some deep cleaning. I’ve been wanting to use my @bissellclean little green machine on Anna’s chair for so long and there were also some spots on her carpet that I wanted to clean so l got that done. And then I did a quick tidy in her room because we’ve really just been in survival mode this week and it’s gotten messy.This did make me realize it is time to do some decluttering in both my girls’ rooms. They’ve definitely outgrown some of their toys and things in their rooms that are just taking up space and making it way too hard to clean up. I want them to really feel like they can clean their own rooms without getting overwhelmed and it’s just hard right now with too much stuff.#speedclean #deepclean #cleaningmotivation #cleanwithme #cleaningday #tidyup #momcleaning #cleaningroutine #housecleaning #littlegreenmachine #declutter

Comment “ beach ” and I’ll DM you the link for this bag! This type of beach bag is so popular and I do get some of the appeal like the organization it offers and how well it stands up, but the downsides really outweighed the good things for me. I had a look a like of the Bogg bag so maybe that had something to do with the overall quality and why my strap kept coming off, but I would not pay even more for a bag that I know is just uncomfortable and not practical for me. I knew I wanted to find one that still stood up and had some good structure. And it also needed to be big enough to fit all my things as a mom of 2. This bag that I found on Amazon hits everything I needed in a beach bag and is so much more comfortable! For me, it was worth finding a bag that I actually really liked instead of trying to convince myself that I liked the other bag just because it’s so popular. #beachbag #beachbagessentials #poolbag #momtips #momof2

Deep cleaning made easy thanks to my new @dreame.usa Z30 cordless stick vacuum. I cannot believe how much vacuuming I was able to get done throughout our house thanks to all the different attachments on this vacuum! If you’re doing deep cleaning right now, check out the 🔗 in my bio for a discount code to get this vacuum for yourself! #dreamez30 #dreamecordlessvacuum #cleanwithme #springcleaning #momcleaning #cleaningmotivation #cordlessvacuum

Tell me I’m not the only one who gets so overwhelmed and questions everything at this point in decluttering 😂This is the biggest reason I declutter one small space at a time. I used to attempt an entire room at once and I would never actually make progress because by the time everything was pulled out, I would be so overwhelmed that I would end up just putting it all back. Even small spaces like this can still feel overwhelming but once I get through the initial panic, it goes quickly and I love that I can see the progress I make in a short amount of time. #declutter #decluttering #declutteringtips #howtodeclutter #cleanwithme #organizewithme #organizedhome #momlife
