To describe myself as a busy mom would be an understatement. A mom, wife, household manager, student extraordinaire, budding photographer, wardrobe specialist, and healthcare worker is just scratching the surface. So when life started to get a little strange, I didn't think much of it....at first.
It started out when I would fall asleep in the strangest of places. Studying, editing and managing my LulaRoe business, I would escape to coffee shops to be able to focus on my work and escape the chaos at home. I could more easily ignore the laundry, dishes and other household work that was calling my name. However, I would fall asleep. 3 cups of coffee and people all around, and I would STILL fall asleep.

Not too unusual? Right? I mean I WAS busy and got little sleep anyway, so it was my body telling me i needed more sleep.
Well, things started to get stranger. Little by little, my face started to break out. Like 13 yr old girl break outs. No matter the creams, masks, and acne washes I used, the zits kept coming.

OK. I could even understand this dilemma. I have been stressed. Any mom who works from home, goes to school, and lets face it.....moms in general.....are stressed. Stress= face break outs.
Then one day while attempting to get dressed for a busy day, I realized my shirts didn't fit!! I chalked it up to maybe a few extra pounds. My Husband, Tyler, on the other hand noticed my chest was starting to grow. He was ecstatic! I was bummed I had to go an find new bras...any woman can agree bra shopping is the worst!!

I FINALLY decided it was time to further investigate the mystery of all these changes when I started having STRANGE cravings:
Peanut butter with cereal
TONS of chocolate
and
PICKLES AND ICE CREAM?!?!?

I was starving and was satisfied by the strangest foods!!! Was this stress eating......or something bigger?!?
Upon further testing and probing, we found out what was causing all these strange symptoms!!! The Mystery is solved!!!

We will be adding to our Chaos!!!!

Welcoming our little blessing April 2018!!!
