Momfirmations Are Exactly What You Need To Hear At Exactly The Right Time

by Jill February 15, 2019
written by Jill

Motherhood is challenging and I am always so thrilled to see when mothers reach out to help other mothers. The village can be such a wonderful place.

Graeme Seabrook, who you may remember from when we shared The Mom Center, her online support network for mothers, has just released a deck of beautifully illustrated affirmation cards called The Momfirmations.

The cards can be used in a variety of ways to inspire and support mothers.

Cards can be pulled daily as a reminder, you can repeat them to yourself in the mirror, you can place them around your home, or use them as a jumping off point for journalling.

There are 55 cards in this pack– Graeme, who has been sharing her #momfirmations on Instagram as well, describes the cards like “a visit from your very best mom friend”.

It’s all about reminding you that you’re a good mom, even on days when you feel like anything but. 

One of the reviews reads:

As soon as I got them in the mail I couldn’t wait to open them. When I did I was blown away, the artwork and words, are just so beautiful. I felt like I just received a hug in the shape of little cards to use every single day. I struggle with depression and these help me stay grounded and I’m already planning on buying more for clients because I know they’ll love them just as much as I do.

Each card has an affirmation along with a reflection question, fully illustrated on the opposite side.

As soon as the cards launched, Graeme noticed that nearly every order coming through was for more than one set of cards- people are buying them as gifts for friends and family members. They would make such a wonderful keepsake for any mom- think baby showers, Mother’s Day, birthday, and beyond. 

You can order your own deck– and one for a friend!- for only $15 each. Graeme is also offering up three Momfirmation decks to three of our readers.

Our Happy Loud Life

by Jill May 9, 2017
written by Jill

I’ve felt what I like to call “creatively constipated” about this post for a week. There’s so much to say and I don’t know how to say it, and every day that I don’t say it keeps me from saying so many other things. So FINE. Here. Just going to put this out there.

We’re selling our house, buying an RV and a truck, and we’re taking our family on a year-ish long trip around the country so we can “roadschool” our kids. I am totally serious. And WOW does that feel so much better.

If you missed my announcement on Facebook last week, here’s the video where Scott and I talked about what lead to this huge life change and a giant leap of faith.

So… yeah. Life is about to get super interesting in, I hope, mostly exciting ways.

Baby Rabies is not going away. In fact, I have plans to re-brand and grow this platform, but we’ll be gradually moving our personal story- the story of our family- over to HappyLoudLife.com. I’ve been brainstorming my baby blogger exit strategy for a while now, and this makes the most sense. I don’t want to stop blogging about pregnancy, babies, and parenting littles anytime soon, but it’s going to make less and less sense for it to be about my personal story as my children get older.

Okay, let me clarify, my exit strategy only recently involved the whole RV part, but that’s really just the first chapter in our new Happy Loud Life. When we get back, I’m sure HLL will evolve a bit. We’ll always be seeking a happy loud life, and that’s the place we’ll tell that story.

Anyway, I am sure you have a TON of questions, and I did my best to answer a lot of them today in a Facebook Live broadcast from the Happy Loud Life Facebook page. (Would love if you’d like me over there and follow me on Instagram at @Happy.Loud.Life.)

I’ll be back on the Baby Rabies Facebook page next week at 10:30 am CST for another Baby Rabies Playgroup live broadcast.

This week’s episode of the Baby Rabies Playgroup is all about encouraging family bonds. My guest, Kristina Grum from Thriving Parents, shares her advice on how to connect individually with your children, as well as how to help siblings form bonds.

If you have a new baby, or you’re looking for tips on how to handle sibling rivalry, you’re going to love what Kristina has to say. She’s a wealth of parenting knowledge!

Here are some of the blog posts we talked about in the video:

  • Compliment Circles aka How To Distract From Siblings Fighting & Foster Stronger Relationships
  • 3 Ways To Connect With Your Kids Individually
  • How To Journal With Your Child To Foster A Deeper Connection

And some posts I’ve written about the topic:

  • Tips For Helping Big Siblings Adjust To A New Baby
  • I Recommend Having Only One Child

Thanks for watching!
