Crazy Times this Summer

We sure are in some odd times. The Corona Virus numbers keep going up, at some point Jacksonville was even a national hot spot! How are you? Are you okay? Are you taking care of yourself? "If Mama 'ain't happy, a'int nobody happy." It's been a struggle to find things to do with kids. Most camps are canceled. We had a water park play date scheduled but then canceled it when local numbers started spiking. People are scared. There is a lot of unknown. The good news is we have MOPS! We are good to go for year number TWO! We are officially registered with MOPS International and got the packet of goodies. The space is reserved for our meetings starting September 3rd at 9:30am. We are working on childcare details and hoping to have lots of outdoor time for the MOPPETS to help with social distancing. Stay tuned for more information. Get signed up with our group officially. Dues are only $30 to be paid to St. Matthews. You can pay by cash or check to the front office of St. Matthews during business hours. Or you can pay with Faith Direct online. Then, you can go online to MOPS to register with the International group and start getting emails, magazines and lots of mom support! Use the code X3N8 to join our group. That's another $31.95. Click here to register for our group so we can get your info. It's going to be good! Decide to Rise!


Sign up to Take over a Tuesday on Instagram so we can follow you through out the day. We want to see all the messy parts, too! We did do a park play date one afternoon. We tried to stay distant and it was hot.

The library did an online summer reading program, there were a few online VBSs, neighborhood pools with the chlorine at 7!, lots of walks, way too much screen time! We are trying to make it work. We did a back yard pool party at Kate's in June. We did a back porch girls night at Lucy's in July. It's so fun getting to meet new moms. I think we all needed the night out! We did a beach play date today. It was a great turn out and a good way to hang out, but still stay apart to your comfort level. MOPS is here for you! Come hang out with us!

2025- A Breath of Fresh Air

  It has taken two whole years for this new member to log into the blog and I’ve finally done it! *round of applause* I am definitely adding it to my accomplish and giving myself a pat on the back.  I feel like that is apart of motherhood right?? Trying to do something for so long and not quite figuring it out and then finally someone sees it with new eyes and *BAM* it all connects and works?!  I wouldn’t survive this life without my MomCo (MOPS) village. 🥂 Here’s to fresh new beginnings, an updated blog, and friendships! 

PulseCheck with Ryan

 Thanks for such a productive meeting & being so receptive, ladies! ❤️ I got some action shots 💪 I hope Ryan was able to answer your first aid questions & I hope you guys gained some new skills and knowledge ☺️ While he wasn’t able to formally certify us during today’s session (to be certified through the American Heart Association- AHA you have to go through a formal class with testing requirements), he does have his Instagram @PulseCheckCPR where you can contact him to schedule a certification course (if you need CPR/BLS for jobs, babysitting, etc.). He is an AHA instructor. For any medical girlies in our group, he also can do BLS, ACLS, PALS, and other certifications.

Egg Hunts are better with Moms!

 One of my favorite events of the year is the egg hunt! Super casual, super chill, super fun! Bring 12 eggs, leave with 12 eggs. You kids run around and “hidden” eggs and then crack them open to treasures. Followed by. Quick trip to the park and everyone naps on the way home.  🏆 WIN WIN
