It's fun. It's hard. Let's do it together.

About

Welcome to This Is Mom Life! I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m Krystin—a working mom of two, wife, professional juggler of schedules, Certified Item Location Specialist, and passionate advocate for moms not losing themselves in the madness of motherhood.

Let’s be real: momming is hard. Some days feel like a beautiful, chaotic mess (heavy on the chaos), and others leave you wondering if you’ve done anything right at all. But what I’ve learned is this: the journey gets a little bit easier—and a whole lot more meaningful—when you have people to share it with.

That’s why I started this blog. Not because I have all the answers (spoiler alert: I don’t), but because I believe in the power of storytelling, honesty, and a good laugh at the ridiculousness of it all. This is a space for connection, encouragement, and unfiltered glimpses into what being a mom actually looks like.

Here, you’ll find my stories—the highs, the lows, the in-betweens—as I navigate work, life, family, and figuring out who I am beyond all the roles I play. I’ll share real moments, reflections, and maybe even a helpful tip or two (or at least what not to do).

Whether you’re in the trenches of toddlerhood, braving the teen years, or just trying to remember the last time you drank hot coffee, you’re welcome here. You are seen. You are not alone. And you’re doing better than you think.

Thanks for stopping by. Pour a fresh cup of wine or coffee (or reheat it for the third time)—let’s do this together.
