The Family


Erich is my husband. We've been together for about 5 years and married for two of them. We've been through everything that was designed to tear us apart but fought through it. That what doesn't kill us, will only make us stronger, right? I met him at an old job where he was my boss and the funny thing is, I hated his guts at first. We argued a lot because I was butt hurt that he got the position that I wanted. Funny how things work out, huh? He's pretty handy to have around, he can fix just about anything. For some reason, everyone likes him. Lol


Dominick is 14 and will be in high school next year. He is who made me a mom. With him, I got to skip all the diapers and tantrums and jump right into the young and fun kid stage. Now he's a teenager and into girls...Oh boy. He's one of the most respectful, well mannered boys I have ever met, minus the typical teenage attitude that is. This kid could make anyone laugh. He's cool because he laughs at my lame jokes every time, even if it's a forced laugh. You could have an hour long conversation with him and forget that you are talking to a teenager. He's super intelligent and has the vocabulary of someone my age. He's thoughtful and genuinely cares about others feelings and what they think. This guy doesn't have a mean bone in his body. (Those flowers he's holding were for his girlfriend.)  

Lanaia is 4 years old. I did get to do the whole diapers and tantrums with this one. I kinda did this backwards, huh? She is pretty well mannered for a 4 year old. She says please when she wants something and usually she gets it but when we tell her no, she'll keep saying please in a not so polite way. lol. She's super smart and will remember every promise that anyone makes to her and will rub it in their face. She's sweet and tells her family she loves and misses them even if they've only been gone for 10 minutes. She's got a super active imagination and will entertain herself like 90% of the time by acting as a mommy to her babies and her sister. Little mommy in the making. Her mama, Stephanie is her best friend and all she talks about.

Averie is my daughter. She is 2 years old and terrible twos are in full force. She's a sassy but also sweet toddler. She's very independent but will ask for help if she's tried a million times to do something and just can't get it. She loves to be a mommy to her babies just like her sister. Her siblings are her best friends. I get to experience everything from diapers and tantrums to teenage years with her, but I should be a pro by now because of my step kids, right? Hahahaha. Who the heck am I kidding?! I have a feeling this little girl is gonna be a handful growing up. Her vocabulary is pretty impressive for being only two years old. She was saying sentences at young age.

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.
