Hi, I’m Haley! I’m a wife, and a working mom with two super busy toddlers. Since as early as I can remember, I have had a passion for writing, a dream of becoming a mommy, and an inherent need for things to be a specific way. I am now married to a man who is very much my opposite, and our two kids do everything in their power to make sure that my orderly life stays constantly turned on it’s head. Things are messy and imperfect, but I’m learning to be happy in every moment and take life the way it comes. It’s hectic, unpredictable, and so much fun…
Welcome to My Lovely Little Storm.
So, about me. I grew up on a farm in a small Kentucky town where I still live today. I’m a girly-girl who loves all things pretty: hair, makeup, matchy-matchy kid’s clothes, interior design… and my most favorite thing is finding a great deal (and sharing it with all of you!) My husband, Jordan, and I met while I was finishing college, and we’ve been making all of our dreams come true for more than 6 years now. We have a 2 year old little girl, Heidi, and our son, Brock, is almost 1. My family is the whole world to me! I am so proud of the little humans we made, and God-willing, we will eventually grow our family even more. I have a degree in Corporate Communications, minoring in Event Planning, which totally matches my Type-A personality. I find happiness in organizing and making every little detail look beautiful. As you all know, kids are great at wrecking plans and making messes, but the chaos is honestly something that I’ve grown to love and look forward to every day. You’re rolling your eyes, I know, but really! Every day I work to become the mom that my kids need, without totally sacrificing everything else I crave and love. It’s possible to compromise the two extremes, and I can teach you my hacks if you follow along!
Learn from my mistakes. Mommyhood doesn’t have to be hard… at least not as hard as it feels right now.
I have created this blog as a cathartic place where I can share my ideas, inspire others, and build a community of women who, like me, have had a hard time finding their tribe. Believe it or not, it’s incredibly difficult for me to open up to people, and though I have a million things to say, I find myself settling for small talk in groups more often than not. Maybe that’s just the introvert in me. But I KNOW you’re out there and maybe, just maybe, you’d want to be friends with a girl like me. Whether you’re looking for inspiration, style, a good laugh, or just to find out how a fellow mom is making it day by day… you’ve come to the right place. Join my email list and let’s figure this out together… I think it’s going to be fun.
