Welcome to Carrie's Crazy Life - a blog about the trials and tribulations of being a work-at-home mom of four small children, a wife, the maid, the cook, the taxi-cab driver, etc! I'm sure that many of you can relate. Join me on my journey to becoming healthy, successful at-home career mom and my kids reaching adulthood - it's sure to be a bumpy road, so buckle up!

About Carrie

CARRIE THE MOM

I am the proud work at home mom of THREE beautiful children!  My oldest daughter, Kaitlyn just turned 10 and she is a fourth grader.  Kaitlyn LOVES math, but really does not like to read.  She is a ONE sport only kind of kid.  Her love is gymnastics.  She is in her fourth year of competition and is competing Level 6!  She is a well-rounded, wonderful child and I am blessed!

My son, Dillon is the "middle child".  He was two in July and is an extremely active toddler, but definitely going throught the "terrible twos".  I think that often times he knows that he is being naughty, but really wants to push me over the edge.  He loves music - singing, dancing or just listening - and he loves his mommy during the day, but at night when daddy gets home, "Who is MOM?!?".

My youngest daughter, Emylia, better known as Emy is 6 1/2 months old.  Now that we know she has a milk protein intolerance, she is a WONDERFUL baby.  I can hardly believe that she is crawling already and almost sitting up.  Before I know it she will be walking, talking, and asking for money or the car keys.  

Carrie The Wife

My husband, Chad and I were married in 2006.  He is a diesel mechanic, working on heavy equipment, mainly cranes!  His hours are incredibly unpredictable so, I am grateful to be home with my kids.  Chad and I enjoy being outdoors, playing games with the kids, and DATE NIGHTS! 

Carrie The Entrepreneur
I began my journey as an entrepreneur in January 2010!  I was as GREEN as they come.  I have two Bachelor's degrees, one in Business Administration and another in Economics, but I had NEVER experienced owning my own business.  I originally set out to make some extra money for the "fun things" that we wanted to do.  I was determined to make my new business venture a success.  I completed my training and set to work, talking to as many people as I could each day.  I was determined to help as many people as I possibly could. 

I am no longer willing to settle for just "some extra money" and helping a few people.  I want to help many, many people and through helping these people make a full-time living for my family working part-time. There are people out there doing exactly that, so I ask, "Why not me?" with a response, "Yep, it WILL be me."! 

Being an entrepreneur is hard work, but very rewarding and the concept is a simple one.  I am excited to have each of you as part of my journey! 

My Hope For YOU

I have a hope for each of you as well.  I would like to see you find health, happiness, fulfillment and financial freedom in your life!  If you want out of your current situation or would like to give owning your own business a try, I would enjoy the opportunity to have you as a Business Partner and member of my career-Family.  If you are in the perfect situation currently, I would like to help you find balance in your life - the balance of your family, career, housework, and last, but not least, FUN!!
