About the Blogger

whitney; introverted mama of 5.

I’m a busy stay-at-home mom to five amazing kids, ranging from 7 to 17, which means my days are a whirlwind of school drop-offs, extracurricular activities, meal planning, and managing the beautiful chaos that comes with a full house. Life is loud, unpredictable, and sometimes exhausting, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

I’ve been happily married to my husband, Mike, for 17 years, and together, we’ve built a life filled with love, laughter, and plenty of adventure. Calling our life chaotic would be an understatement—between raising a big family, juggling packed schedules, and navigating the highs and lows of marriage, there’s never a dull moment. Some days are filled with spontaneous road trips and family game nights, while others are just about surviving the mess, the homework battles, and the never-ending laundry pile.

Through it all, I’ve learned to embrace the little moments—the laughter at the dinner table, the quiet nights with a good book, and the memories we’re constantly creating. It’s not always perfect, but it’s ours, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Lately, I’m into…
