Chic-Click Carnival.

Howdy all you Chic Click Carnival goers! Thank you for stopping by my lil ol’ blog here. If blogs we’re carnival attractions. I’d be the scrambler. And if you hang around long enough, you’ll realize there is no definition required (or you can just ask my husband)

So let’s see where to begin….it all started long ago in Baltimore, MD my mother and father …. wait you didn’t want all that information did you? I’m Alex and I am the loud, crazy, energetic, and attitude prone Mama to my 20 month 2 yro minnie-me. Loud, crazy, energetic, and attitude prone son Phoenix.

I am a young mom (22) and I understand that most people might think that I’m leaving my baby home alone while I party and I’m pouring Pepsi into the sippy cup and only changing a diaper when the sag is so low it hits the floor. But in fact the opposite is true! I don’t leave my baby home when I go party…I just bring him with me. And Pepsi? That’s for chumps! My toddler gets straight Mikes Hard Lemonade (but the light kind because he’s on a diet). And I only change a diaper when I know the social worker is on her way. We save money that way.

But in all honesty I take a very laid back (ok well I try) view on mommying and even mommy blogging. I have an ability to be able to describe to you in such vivid detail about a fight with my husband over burgers that makes you want to run for the hills! My husband is a great guy who happens to be like a billion light years older then me, but who cares? He’s still sexy and young. Right now he’s in NY working in a recording studio 16 hours a day making his dreams come true and mine as well (ya know the kind filled with Chloe, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, and Marc Jacobs. Those dreams). He’s a Grammy nominated music producer (Don’t mean to sound snarky, but I’m just really proud of him) and I expect our life is getting ready to go on a fast and crazy ride!

I’m completely transparent and honest when it comes to this. I want to put out my mistakes and learn from others and offer up any little nuggets of wisdom I can.

Throw in some adorable pictures of my feisty red head tot, delicious recipes, a Jonas Brother, and fashion whore post and you’ve got yourself a blog! Oh yeah and a provocative thought every now and again to keep it interesting. I also just started crafting and sewing and I’m sharing all of those triumphs and failures with you as well. Currently I have started a This Is Us love story link up. I am sharing our love story and would also love to have to share yours with me as well.

Hopefully you like what you see! Follow me on Twitter (@alexcampbell11) too!

And while you’re here take a minute to stop by a great Etsy shop I found this week via the Chic-Chick Widget
