Here goes, the first blog post for Football & Mom Stuff! So what will you find in this space and will it be helpful?
First, we are talking about, learning about, and loving some good old American football. But it is not your typical NFL football talk. We will look at football from a woman’s perspective. Next up, mom life and mom stuff. What is “mom stuff” you ask? It is stuff that as a mom you want to talk about, learn about, discuss, or buy. And third, you will find some self-care reminders and tips.
Are You Ready For Some Football?
How about some football from a woman’s perspective!!
Yes we are woman and we LOVE football!! I mostly love NFL football, but I am also known to catch a college game or two. So if you are like me and you love football, or let’s be real any sport, you might have run into the “you don’t really like football” crowd. You might be tested on the latest stats for a QB or asked about the history of your team. Or you might be accused of liking football only because of the hottest couple in America, Tayvis.
For me, I grew up in a football town where for 5 – 6 months out of the year it is what we did. LETS GO BUFFALO!!! But I don’t care why you like football, what team you support, whether you know any stats, or even if you know the positions. I do care if you like Taylor Swift, because c’mon how could you not!?!!
I just want to talk about football. So, generally, here is what you will see:
- Football 101 – Learn football basics from positions and players to some history and anything in between
- Football Player/Team Spotlights – Learn about the NFL teams and their hottest players
- NFL Football News – Keep up to date on the latest football news and celebrity
- Tailgate Fun – Are you going to a game? Find the latest recipes, fashion and must haves for a tailgate
Busy Doing Mom Stuff

It is more like the stuff that as a mom you want to talk about, learn about, discuss or buy.

- Organizing Hacks and Time-saving tips
- Fun Family Activities and Adventures
- Party Ideas and Decorating Themes
- Easy to Make Recipes and Other Food Ideas
- “Best of” and “Top” Suggestions and Recommendations From Books to Gardening to Netflix Series
“Self-Care is How You Take Your Power Back”
— Lalah Delia
And to round us out, we are talking self-care. As woman, and a mom, there is real power in taking time out for some self-care. Yes this concept is trending across social media. But, it can be life changing and should be something that is a priority long after it stops trending across your favorite platform.
Self-care can take the form of so many things, big and small. Sure self-care is a day at the nail salon or a massage. But self-care can also be the 5 minutes of deep breaths you sneak in before you brush your teeth, it could be 20 minutes of reading a book or talking to a dear friend. So here is what you will find:
- Easy Self-Care Routines and Practices
- Journaling Prompts and Motivational Affirmations
- Habit Tracking and Tips to Keep You Consistent
We are excited for this journey and hope we can add some love and light into your mom life!
