Mom of the month. (August)


So I have decided to give 'Shout outs' to moms that inspire me because well, they deserve recognition. Each month, I will pick a momma who inspires me and interview them. Hope you enjoy this... :D



A Mom who inspires me.

Cat Fritz


So this awesome mom right here is a single mother to 4 boys!!! I thought 1 girl can be difficult but 4 boys?! 

Here is what I asked Cat.
1. What is the most challenging thing about being a mom?

Trying to raise 4 boys by myself and showing them how to be a gentlemen.

2. What is something you want your kids to learn when they get older?

To never give up and always have respect for people.

3. How would you describe your kids personalities? Would you say they're like you?

Eli- quite and very smart.
Kaden- total tough guy.
Levi- Knows what he wants.
Owen- quite smart and observant.
I think they all reflect me in a way. They also have some personalities of their dad.

4. What is one thing you make sure your kids always know and understand?

Nothing is handed to you in life, you have to earn it.

5. Who is your go-to person when you need advice/help?

My older sister, Pattie.

6. Who do you look up to as a mom?

My mother. She had 6 kids worked full time and got a college education.

7. What have you learned since becoming a mom?

Every child is different. So, you have to learn different ways to teach them.

8. What is one of the things you love most about being a mom?

Knowing my kids have a good heart.



I have gotten to know know Cat a little bit through a momma group that we are both in. She has been through some rough times and difficult challenges in her life but still manages to be super-mom for her boys. Could you imagine taking care of 4 boys by yourself? That means literally doing everything for them, by yourself. I sure as hell couldn't. To do what she does everyday, takes a whole lot of love and patience. I'm sure there are plenty of nights that she doesn't sleep. In fact I know this to be true because just the other night she was giving one of her boys a bath at 2 A.M. because he was having growing pains. 
She is a strong momma. Cat I just wanted to let you know that you inspire me. You inspire me to be more patient and understanding. It's mom's like you that make me and other first time moms never want to give up.





I am going to try and remember to do this each month...Sometimes I forget things. After pregnancy, pregnancy brain is the excuse I like to use...

Married To A Mechanic: 8 things to expect. 🔧

Since I've started blogging, I've only blogged about my husband personally like once or twice, so this is dedicated to my mechanic husband. Erich has been working on cars since he was about 14 years old, so 20 years. He does it for a living but on diesels. He does it in hi spare time as well so basically, all the freaking time. Here's what to expect if you date a mechanic. Car Talk Mechanics talk about cars like 24/7; Parts, make and model, they even try to explain to you how certain parts work. If you tell them you don't understand, they will explain again, in depth with more detail, which is even more confusing. Either go on Google and learn a little bit or pretend you understand what they are talking about. Oil & Grease White anything is against any mechanics beliefs. I have to clean the walls, counters, appliances, PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING at minimum of 3 times a week. They are usually covered from head to toe in oil and grease. Honestly, I thin...

Spring Time Means Allergies!

Sprint time is the worst season for me. I hate this season honestly. My allergies are horrible during spring, like when I say horrible, I mean face swollen, constant nose blowing. The whole awful nine yards. Just the other day, I swear I sneezed about a million and one times and then lost my voice. We just moved into a house that had ben vacant for two months before we moved in, so there was two months of dust accumulated on the floors and walls. Needless to say, my first day in our new house consisted of a lot of sneezing and wheezing. Since spring is just around the corner and that means so are allergies, I made a list of home remedies for allergy relief that has really helped me and hopefully will help you too. Honey Local raw honey, it builds your immune system up to what's around you. You can get this at places like Whole Foods. Make sure it is local honey though.
