Hi, I’m Danielle!

Welcome to my blog

I’m a 26 year old mama to Huxley, my smart & beautiful 6 year old daughter. Bohdi, my two year old car obsessed boy and Stormi, my one year old daughter with the big attitude. We live in southern Saskatchewan in a town of about 30 people. I’m easily pleased with food and fashion, addicted to coffee and online shopping. I started this blog when Huxley turned one and wanted it to be my safe place where I could document my journey through motherhood and more.

I hope you all enjoy following us on this roller coaster!

One Year Of Hux

...And just like that you’re one

365 days (and more) since I first met you, my 6lb 1oz blessing. My life has been so full of joy ever since.

The past few months we have seen more milestones than ever, including taking your first steps, getting six teeth, using utensils, switching from formula to whole milk, and now you weigh (a few ounces short of) 20lbs!

Huxley has slept through the night since she was about 6 months old, she recently dropped one of her daytime naps due to the fact she was starting to take little fits before bed but is back to her normal bedtime routine! I don’t mind the me time I can spend from 8pm to 7am for little things like these blogs and some self love!

Eating is a hit or miss with her, she loves her food but could have fruit or cheese for every meal. She’s learned when you are full to throw the rest of the food on the floor for Toby. This is the most frustrating thing, but I know she will outgrow it soon.

It’s amazing how quickly she is learning, she has mastered walking and is starting to be able to run. Crawling is a thing of the past!

My maternity leave ended in July, so I have since returned to working part-time as a CCA. Thankfully, my mom and sister both live down the block and have Hux most of the time I am working. She jumps into her grandmas arms, which means it has been an easy transition from the home to work life as a mom.

We have been getting a glimpse into some of our future tantrums, and they do not look fun. She is very independent and likes to grab anything she can not have, you can guess that she doesn’t like having things taken away. She also has become offended by the word “no” and cries when you need to tell her it. I’ve begun to feel like all I do is relock cupboard doors.

A whole year of being your mommy. A year of learning, growing, bonding, and lots of love.

We love you Huxley Raine

*Trigger Warning*

I was in a mentally abusive relationship for 3 years, he cheated on me what felt like a few times a month. I found messages of him telling other girls I wasn’t pretty enough, he would tell me that I had lost weight and lost the only thing he actually liked about me (my butt). No one was going to ever like me. He called me every single name he could think of, he would push me around and talk down to my family members who tried so hard to be there to help me. He could not keep a job, so I gave him a place to live, a car and many cell phones to try and help him. I ended up getting pregnant. During the pregnancy he gave me no support, he told me constantly “I should consider an abortion, a baby will ruin his reputation” and then would claim he was joking about it. He would go out every weekend Friday-Sunday and would turn off his phone so I couldn’t get ahold of him. I was considered crazy to all of his friends and his family because I would text them asking for help and wondering where he was, when he came back I would be losing it and screaming and crying. I begged him to stay at the house for just one weekend. My beautiful little girl was born August 5th, 2018. He was on drugs when he brought me into the hospital, I had no idea. I really believed at this time we were doing well, I was clueless. 12 days after she was born he went out to party and had sex with another girl. On our daughters first Halloween, he went to his “girlfriends” house instead of coming trick or treating with us(who I at the time of course had no clue about yet). On our daughters first birthday, he went out and did drugs with his friends. In November 2019, he cheated again. He never quit, i believed I could help him and stayed hoping we could be a happy family. I finally let go of everything I had tried so hard to keep.

On March 1st, I left all our awful memories. I bought a new house, Huxley and I moved with so much help from all of our wonderful family and friends. I am so grateful, for realizing I am worth more, for realizing Huxley needs a happy mom and for all of our people that helped me push through it and come out stronger than ever. We got through it, and we will get through whatever life throws at us next!❤️
Keep pushing babes
