About Us

Hi! I am Brooke, first time mom located in Southern California. I am an attorney and my husband, Joseph, runs his own business. We welcomed our daughter in Fall 2024. We round out our household with two doggos.

Baby girl is generally a very happy little one, and getting to be her parents has been the most rewarding thing. Other than the growing pains of being first time parents, there have also been a few speed bumps that we are working to overcome. Specifically, baby girl has been diagnosed with both torticollis and developmental hip dysplasia. Long-term, the outlook is great. In the interim, there has been some tears (both baby and mom), deep dives into research, doctors appointments, patience, and adjustments. Throughout it all, she keeps charming us with her smiles, giggles, and babbles.

The purpose of this blog is to allow me an outlet to write about my experiences and the joys and challenges of a first time mom. Since becoming a mom, I have spent countless hours Googling anything and everything related to keeping my little one alive, happy, and healthy. I periodically came across other blogs of families with similar experiences and devoured every tid bit of advice I could. My goal is that that this blog can help out even one other family that is in the newborn trenches, just received a torticollis or hip dysplasia diagnosis, or is experiencing something similar.

Please note, all names have been changed in order to protect the privacy and safety of our family and little one. Likewise, I do not intend to post photographs of our family.

Happy to have you along on this journey!
