When you are a mom of a young child, some days are hard. But most days are awesome. Yesterday was one of those awesome days. I work from home on Wednesdays, so automatically I love that day of the week. Hudson was especially good and took a great morning nap so I was able to get a ton of work done....which helped me not feel so guilty for taking a ... Read More

Last night was killer. Someone fell asleep in the car on the way home from daycare and woke up on the wrong side of the bed carset. That someone was not me. It was Hudson. Talk about CRANKY. As in, we haven't heard those kind of screams since, well, I can't even remember. Isn't it too early for him to start throwing tantrums? Lordy that boy was ... Read More

 I'm no blogging expert....but I have fallen in love with the blogging community. Blogging to me isn't about making money or gaining a million followers. It's about connecting with people, supporting one another, learning something new, and meeting friends from all across the country.  A few things have helped me grow my little ... Read More

Hudson got one of his birthday presents early because I couldn't wait to put it together! To say he loves his custom designed teepee from Mallow & Graeme is an ... Read More

Sometimes I feel like I can do it all. I can take care of my baby, work full time, spend time with my husband, cook a healthy meal, clean my house, do all the laundry, and devote time to blogging. But let's be real....that hardly ever happens. That's not real life around here. Real life is barely managing to brush my teeth each day, hunting for the ... Read More

Hi, my name is Jessica, and I blog at The Reinvention of Jessica.  I am mom to Jack, my 10 month old son, and wife to Dennis, my husband of 12 years.  Through my breastfeeding journey, I have become quite the lactavist and advocate for mother's rights.  I am lucky to have the support of my husband and both sides of of our families ...

I took Monday and today off of work so that I could have some much needed "me" time and work on projects around the house. I made a huge to-do list of all the things I wanted to accomplish.  Well....sometimes frequently life doesn't go as planned. Halfway through the day yesterday I got a call from Hudson's daycare. He wasn't ... Read More

 Do you have a skin care routine? Thanks to pale skin, genetics, and too many sleepless new-mom nights, I have some pretty dark circles under my eyes. I've tried to cover them up but no matter what I do, they are still there. Now that I'm 30 (yikes!) I need to take better care of my skin. Thankfully Mary, a rep for Rodan & Fields, the ... Read More
