Ramblings of a mom. Attempting to navigate my life as a new mother-of-two while trying to maintain a sense of self and rediscover the woman I once was. Balancing motherhood and womanhood to find the woman - or "mom-an" within.

Allow me to introduce myself...
New to the blogging world, this is my first attempt at writing something which hopefully will be worth reading... I am married and am a mother to a 4 yr old daughter and a 10 wk old son - names will be withheld to protect the innocent. In my life before maternity leave, I was a marketing professional with a packed agenda. I was able to balance my seemingly endless work commitments, volunteer work, family obligations, daycare drop-offs, dance lessons, etc with ease. Add another baby to the mix and I could feel myself slowly unravelling. The very same week I gave birth to my son, my daughter started junior kindergarten. Literally, 36 hours after giving birth I was at the "big school" for my meet-the-teacher interview. My baby girl was growing up and I was struggling with the "mother-of-two" label. This blog is my attempt to make some sense of my new world as I navigate the motherlands searching for myself in the process.
