Thanks for visiting! I'm Alicia, the author of this blog, and I love sharing bits of our life here and on social media. Back in 2008, when my oldest was only a month old, I started Making Time For Mommy as a way to make time for myself and meet other moms. I hope this blog encourages you to make time for yourself, gives you ideas for family fun, and provides easy tips you can incorporate into your busy life! ---read more about me here ---
I figured I should post considering it’s a new year and it’s been months since I’ve done so. I updated my 300 in 3 years list as well. So far I have completed 28 goals and have 65 in progress. I am pregnant again and circumstances in my life have changed so I will be … Read more
It’s been almost a week since I’ve updated. With fall tv season starting, becoming more involved in my social groups, and cleaning and organizing my house I’ve been really busy.

I’ve spent time with family, started making new friends, and worked on projects around my house. One thing I’ve realized is that I’m not going to miss anything important while I’m away from … Read more
Lots of things going on lately… This is just a short update because I am feeling like crap (allergies and a cold). -Jacob slept from 7:40pm-6:20am last night. He did not wake up once so I was very grateful for that. -I had the worst experience at a dentist ever! When I scheduled the appointment … Read more
I failed. I did not get everything done on my list. I did, however, succeed. How do you fail and succeed at the same time you might ask. Well I might not have accomplished everything on my list but the fact that I even finished one project, instead of sitting around watching TV and playing … Read more
Yesterday I went to a “mom’s of infants” group and was so excited to meet other moms that had babies. I joined the group because I am trying to get out more often and I want Jacob to get used to being around other children. Not only did I leave my house to go to … Read more
