Welcome to the new Mommy’s Me Time! Over the past month I’ve been working with the talented Julie at Deluxe Designs to create this simplified and beautiful new look. I’ve also worked on streamlining the site to make the menus more user friendly so you can easily find the posts that are of interest to you. My hope is that when you’re busy and in the thick of motherhood, encouragement will only be a few clicks away when you need it the most.

As a way to celebrate the launch and future of Mommy’s Me Time and to thank all of you I’m hosting a giveaway this week! I’ve been so grateful for your love and support over the past few months, and all the growth that’s been happening to my little blog. A special community has been formed here, and I’m encouraged and inspired every day to know that I’m walking through the journey of motherhood with you. We’re in this beautiful role together and I’m humbled to have this space and the chance to know you and hear from you.

This week I’ll be giving away a $100 Lululemon gift card to one lucky Mommy’s Me Time reader!

lululemon Wrunning layout

When given the chance to splurge, Lululemon is where I go to spoil myself. If you’re not familiar, their stores are filled with the most comfortable yoga clothes and running gear. I must emphasize the word COMFORTABLE. Instead of spending much money on maternity clothes this time around, I invested in a few Lulu bottoms because I knew I’d be able to keep wearing them long after the baby comes.

There IS one MAJOR prerequisite. You must be a mom or a mom-to-be to enter! 

The giveaway is open through the end of the day Friday, August 22nd and the winner will be announced on Saturday, August 23rd, 2014.

There are several ways to enter the giveaway, all of which you can do using Rafflecopter below.

One of the options to enter is by leaving blog comments. Through this giveaway I’m hoping to learn more about you and ways I can tailor the blog to encourage and support you. I’d love to hear what you have to say!

Two additional options to enter the giveaway include following me on Facebook and Instagram. Those tend to be the two social media platforms that I spend time on. I may not publish a blog post everyday, but you can usually find me on FB and IG sharing daily real life mom moments. I’d love for you to follow along on our adventures!

Lastly, you can earn five entries for sharing Mommy’s Me Time with your friends. If you are encouraged by what you read in my posts and have friends or family who you think would enjoy reading too, I’d love for you to welcome them into the community.

Thank you so much for helping me celebrate this launch! I’m so excited for this next season with you!

XOXO,

Amber

    I absolutely love your raw honesty in life and raising your precious kiddos! I have 3 children as well…4,3,1 so I can totally relate to you on so many levels. One thing that I wish I was more like you is in the working out department. I am so tired during the day from the kiddos that I tend to let that part of my day slip! I would love to know how you keep your energy up for some YOU time!

      Hi Sarah. I agree with you. My girls are 4 months old and I’m still trying to figure out how to squeeze in time to workout again, start up my business and spend quality time with them. I feel guilty when I don’t spend every waking moment with them. I’d like to learn how to have a more healthy balance of me time and mommy time.

      Welcome to twin mommahood 🙂

    Hi Amber! I have really enjoyed your blog. I discovered it when you wrote about exclusively pumping as I’m having to pump for my twin girls who won’t nurse. It was such a huge help and encouraged me to not give up. So thank you 🙂 I’m excited about this give away and look forward to sharing your blog with others!

    I follow you on IG and have noticed you and your husband make it a priority to have time to go on dates and spend time just the two of you. I think that is so important to do, but so difficult with kids. Do you guys have designated days or date nights?

    Amber I love the new look! I have 3 kids age 2,1,1…sound familiar 🙂 I love your posts. Always great words of encourgment! So wonderful to know that we aren’t in this alone.

    I love all of the topics you cover. I find every post very encouraging. I’d love to hear how you find time to blog and do things for you with three children (plus one soon!), as well as pros/cons of the spacing between your kids. Do you find it easier/more fun with kids close in age? What are some of your biggest challenges?

  42. avatar

    I get inspired by your postings, thank you for that. You’ve added good things to my days as a mommy of a 5 year old boy and boy/girl twins that are 14 months old.

    I would love to hear and see little tricks you have learned to make it easier getting out of the house with all of your little ones. Also things you do in the winter with the kids. My biggest challenge the is taking the kids someplace on my own when my husband works or is busy, and any little tricks you have found are helpful!!

    Amber!! I love the new look, I bet it feels good. It’s like a new hair cut, or a new shirt…we’re girls, we all love something a little new. A new shirt ALWAYS makes me smile. As mommies, we know often times we aren’t granted things new…we’re buying school clothes for kids or new shoes for the husband…but often times we sacrifice what we need for the needs of others. As a child, I remember my mom wearing the same “old” clothes over and over again…now I know, that sometimes there just isn’t the funds for something new or the energy to shop for it. This is why your giveaway is touching, is needed and just simply the kindest and thought fullest thing you could do for us mommies. Soemthing to make us feel special…something to make us feel good about our extra pounds from our pregnancies or our hair that is in desperate need of a hair cut!! Thanks for thinking of us. Thanks for loving us in this way.

    I love the baby led feeding and sleeping routine…both my girls fall asleep well on their own..they were in their cribs by 4weeks…i just kept a monitor on…I am a cry it out momma…of course i check on them often.l..but i believe it takes a few nights of crying & they learn quickly to sooth themselves to sleep. its worked well….the 18 month sleep regression has thrown me for a loop tho…
