Growing up, my mom and dad always made sure us kids KNEW how privileged we were. They didn’t hide the reality of the world from us; instead, they used the world around us to teach us lessons about giving back and helping those in need. How? Well.. in different ways. One particular memory that sticks…
New Series: #MomLifeMusings
As I’m sure you’ve heard me say a million times in the past, my goal with A Little Too Loud is to grow a community of powerful, complicated mamas that empower each other to be confident in their “too much-ness;” whatever that may be. I want this space to be more than just the Chickie and SHR…
Chickie’s Fun and Functional Playroom
We moved into #CasaRice in November of 2015 when I was pregnant with Chickie. I normally HATE moving but this time around- thanks to the best excuse to not lift a finger- it wasn’t so bad. We moved from a two bed to a three bed so our Panama family could still stay with us once…
Where We Shop: Pregnancy Clothes
I love getting dressed on the weekends. For work? Not so much. My style is super laid back and informal so dressing for work- especially on days I’m in Court- is not my strong suit (pun intended! Get it? I’m a lawyer so I wear suits haha #lamemomjoke 🙃). Because of my laid back, informal…
Hospital Bag: Less is More + STEAL ALL THE UNDERWEAR!
Ok, it’s game time: the car seat is installed, the baby clothes are washed and the nursery is all set up. What’s left to do to prepare for baby? Packing a hospital bag, that’s what! I, like most people, packed WAY TOO MUCH in my hospital bag. What did I actually end up using? Let…
Breastfeeding + Exclusively Pumping: The Basics
Fair warning, friends- today’s post is a looooong one 🤗 As I’m sure you’ve heard me say about a million times before- I SWEAR by a book called Cherish the First Six Weeks. Cherish is all about putting baby on an eating/feeding schedule right off the bat. I know this is not for everyone and…
A Letter to My InstaFam
Hi friend, Welcome to the blog! If you’re reading this, it means my little BIG dream of ALittleTooLoud.com being live is a reality! How incredible is that? YOU, with your support and encouragement made that happen. How? Well- as you’ve maybe gathered from my posts and #Instastories- I’m an insecure, anxious hot mess and launching…
Chef Matty’s Crockpot Carnitas: Easy and Delicious!
While cruising facebook one day Matty, my #handsomehubbs ran into this recipe from the folks at Buzzfeed and immediately knew he found a keeper- with some tweaking, of course. Matty’s carnitas are suuuuuper easy to make and usually last us at least 3 days. We make them into tacos at home and serve them over…
Diaper Bag Round-Up
I loooove our diaper bag! It’s big enough, has a ton of compartments, a great changing mat and for some reason, Chickie LOVES pointing at the animals. The bag is a kid magnet! I don’t know if that goes in the pro column for you but I swear it’s true! More than once we’ve been out…
Traveling with Baby: Absolute Lifesavers
When Soph was tiny we traveled to Panama to see my family several times. How did I manage to fly alone with a newborn? By bringing the following things along: Medela Freestyle portable pump + mini cooler: As an exclusive pumper, meaning I didn’t actually put the baby to the breast but SOLELY pumped and…
