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!

Decluttered under my bathroom sink ✨ I was shocked at the amount of empty bottles under there but so happy with the amount I decluttered at the end 😌 #declutter #summerofdecluttering #declutterwithme #declutteredhome #declutteringtips

The girls’ room turned out so cute! It was a busy laundry day and it literally took me all day to get all their new bedding washed up but they love it so much! It’s so girly and pink! I got two sets of sheets to easily be able to switch on laundry day. I don’t even know why I got one white set each because they both love the pink and only want that on their beds 😂 #laundry #dailylaundry #laundryday #laundryroom #laundrytips

Decluttered our garage and set up a mudroom for us! Our garage needed so much help! We don’t have a coat closet or an actual mudroom in our current house so when we moved in, my plan was to turn the back wall of our garage into a mudroom for us. I wanted a place to store shoes and hang coats and backpacks. I went through all the shoes, coats, and other random things and Austin organized the mess in the front of the garage which was a ton of cardboard, outdoor toys, and some things we needed to donate.The amount of shoes we had is honestly embarrassing 😂 I have such a hard time getting rid of my shoes for some reason (like I have shoes from when I was in college🫠) but I got rid of a ton! And I definitely have more I should probably get rid of. My goal was for this to be round 1 of decluttering and another day I’ll come back and re-visit what’s left to reduce things down more. And to be fair, both girls are in between shoe sizes so I have a bunch from the size they’re leaving and their new sizes and any shoes that were still in good shape from Emily to pass to Anna. This setup is so much better and is now a functional space for our family to keep us organized! The girls have somewhere to put their things when they come home from school instead of the floor of our dining room 😂#declutter #declutterwithme #declutteredhome #declutteringtips #decluttering

Maybe not a true emergency, but it felt like it 😂 getting our dining room and entry way cleaned out HAD to happen before school starts. Literally who can think straight if you’re walking in and out of your home past a mess like this? I didn’t totally finish during his nap, but it’s not too far off. And during the next naptime, I’ll finish and start setting up some basic systems that will have us set up for success this school year ✨ #naptimecleaning #cleanwithme #cleaningmotivation #backtoschoolprep #schoolroutine
