Welcome!

Whoo hoo! Just what the world needs another mommy blog!

But I am part of the rare, dying species of the stay at home moms. I’ve decided to start blogging not just about being a mom, but about all aspects of my life. Despite my lack of daily adult interaction, I actually have a lot going on in my head, mostly because NPR takes the boredom out of folding laundry and doing the dishes! This new life is a big adjustment and I’m excited to be documenting this joy ride!

I love my life. A lot. Not just because I don’t have to ‘go to work’ anymore. My manager now is a gorgeous 9 week 3 day old baby who is the most demanding, hilarious, affectionate boss I have ever had. My husband, D, does an awesome job providing for this family. He is one of those strange people that actually likes his job and genuinely is great at it. 'Mommy to Perfection' has a double meaning. The first is the reality that I am a mom to a perfect baby girl. She is a strong, healthy, funny, ahead of the curve baby who knocks my socks off everyday. The second meaning pays tribute to the fact that I'm a perfectionist. If I'm not the best or I can't do it perfectly, I won't do it. I think motherhood will break me of this habit! But I will ALWAYS be striving for perfection, I will just be learning to accept failure.

So I do have 16 talking points for this blog. I have 4 goals for 4 areas of my life. I will be writing to hold myself accountable by openly admitting things I need to work on. I want to be an awesome mom, wife, woman and house guru. I’m going to try to update everyday on my progress in these areas and I can guarantee you it will be comical. In all honesty, I may seem to have it all together but I have no clue what I’m doing! Welcome to my life!
