ABOUT ME

Mamabear

Hi...I am MamaBear. Wife to a handsome hubster, Mama to my sunshine, animator, artist, blogger, home maker, sometimes superhero and most times hot mess. Welcome to my life.

I am the Mamabear of one precious daughter, who is now 8 months old. I have been married to the incredible Hubster for 3 years now and we have a happy, healthy, little home. I recently went back to my 9 to 5 desk job as an animator. But my main, most fulfilling, meaningful and by far most demanding job still remains, being a Mamabear. I have always known I wanted to be a Mom. Even from a very tiny age. The moment I became a Mom I felt my whole world click into place. And I have never felt more whole as a woman than I did the moment I became a mother. 

I come from a big, loud, crazy, tight-knit family and am a true family girl at heart. Family for me is quite simply everything. It is my core, my roots and my haven. The things I love most in life are time spent with my precious family and friends, animals, the salty air and the ocean, sunshine and giggles and of course good food.

The reason I started this blog was mainly to document my journey into mamahood. To write down and hold onto the little memories and moments that years would slowly steal from me. It was also to release, reassure and of course rant. Hopefully I can inspire and encourage you with my journey. And I urge you to please share your stories and advice too. The more we share as Mamas the more we learn and grow. We all have unique journeys we are on and we all face different challenges, but one thing that unites us as women, is that we are all strong and beautiful! And the world will hear us roar! 

 

We are proud. We are tough. We are brave. And we are fierce.
