Hi, I´m Jaimi
My name is Jaimi, and I am a mom who loves to encourage other mothers in the season of raising children, making a home, and staying focused on the end goals of motherhood. I am the mom of four, including a set of twins. I am also a military wife, writer and “professional” playdate planner. We have to meet mom friends somehow, right?!
I studied early childhood education and teaching in college, so I was able to study a lot about child psychology, family dynamics and what research shows about those two factors in the life of children. I decided to channel that background and the feeling like I could really help moms who were just trying to survive at home caring for their families.
The stay at home mom survival guide is my little ministry. The blog has really grown from where it started. It is a resource for mothers, parents, and even teachers.

A Mother’s Best Asset
When we were children, we all observed our parents parenting so we had time to learn about parents and children before we thought about having our own. I thought about all of these experiences and they helped me form the ‘what would I do if that were my kid’ philosophy. Remember all those things...
The Female Brain: Mothers and Children
I remember a friend posting on his Facebook status that he wished there was a book that would help him understand women. I commented that even being a woman did not mean that I understood many! We are a unique breed of person. Our bodies are not constant or steady; we live with a roller coaster...
As the Mother of A Son
Considering my role as the mother of a son, every day I set an example. I am not only sharing with him how he is loved. When my sons see my interactions with my husband, I am defining an example of a wife. I got to thinking… Why is it that when women get together we often complain or joke...
Road Trip with Kids: 10 Easy Activities and NO Electronics!
We recently traveled to meet my husband at a base where he had been attending a few training schools, and oh, darn, it was on the beach! It was a road trip with kids where I had to handle all the prep and driving. This 3-hour drive was considered a mini-road trip for us since we have also taken on...
What I Will Not Teach My Daughter
When I found out 'child number two' was going to be a girl, I felt a large burden on my shoulders when it came to my responsibility for raising a WOMAN. I evaluated a lot about myself and how I approached life and relationships. Turns out there were a lot of lessons I decided qualified as what I...
Homemade Summer Fun with Kids
My children are ‘outdoor kids’, large motor machines. They need to get outside in order to keep their spirits in balance-I need that too. Thankfully summer fun with kids provides a multitude of outdoor time for fun-and learning. Having children in multiple age groups allows me the challenge to...
DIY Magnetic Felt Board for the Fridge
This post contains affiliate links. Please view my disclosure. Dinner time in our house is a bit hectic. I often have the twins pulling at my legs while trying to navigate my way through main dish, sides and filling up milk cups. It can get tricky (and a bit overwhelming) when everyone is so...
Blue Burgers with Balsamic Glazed Mushrooms PLUS Apple Balsamic Potato Salad
Ok, so the burgers aren't actually the color blue, but they do involve some blue cheese. Yum! Every now and then we splurge on great cheeses and of course some 'fancy' ingredients like vinegars have a long shelf life, so their cost is divided over time. I came up with this recipe on a Saturday...
Make Your Own Bean Bags
I have been wanting to buy my children bean bags for a while and never got to it. DIY bean bags turned out to fit my budget and they were pretty easy to make. I have a CD of bean bag toss songs that teach following directions that I used with my own preschool classes when I was teaching. It...
Picky Eaters Can Learn to Eat
My kids are picky eaters. It has been exhausting many nights at the dinner table trying to convince them that the colorful healthy foods are good for them. My oldest has been picky from the baby food stage, my second started around 2 years old, and the twins do not like much meat and a few...
