We are happy to announce a new member of the CMB family!
Meet Emily:
“I am a Cincinnati girl, born and raised. After a brief hiatus to attend the University of South Carolina (go Cocks!), my husband and I moved back home with a 1 year old in tow (she’s now 10!). Since then, we have added three more kiddos to our family (ages 6, 4 and 2), and I am lucky enough to hang out with them all day. We love reading, getting crafty, and making huge messes that we will definitely clean up…tomorrow. When I’m not surrounded by children, I dabble in exercise, enjoy reading a good book, and can frequently be found binging on Netflix with my favorite guy. About a year ago, a Pinterest “I can do that!” project painting little superheroes for my son turned into an Etsy shop (etsy.com/shop/woolyllama) which I manage to run in my “free time”. I may be slightly sleep deprived, but I wouldn’t trade a minute of my crazy, busy, wonderful life!”
If you could choose to do anything for a day, what would it be?
Nothing. I rarely get a chance to sit still for longer than 5 minutes, and when I do I’m usually busy doing one thing or another. To do absolutely nothing for a full day? I’d be in heaven!
If you were a crayon, what color would you be and why?
Yellow. It’s my happy color.
What song would you sing at karaoke night?
Will they have Raffi? I sing a LOT of Raffi.
Who would you call for bail money?
My mom. She’d be there in an instant, and wouldn’t tell a soul.
If you had a warning label, what would yours say?
Contents under pressure. Handle with care.
If you had to eat at one Cincinnati restaurant for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Graeters. Chocolate and ice cream? Yes, please!
What is your favorite place to take the kids in Cincinnati?
The park. The kids get to run and play and I get to enjoy the fresh air and sun. The fact that they are extra tired on park days, making bedtime a breeze? Added bonus.
What is your favorite thing about being a mom?
The hugs! I know someday they will be too cool to hug their mom, so I am taking full advantage while I can.
What is your least favorite thing about being a mom?
Cleaning. With four kids, there is ALWAYS something out of place.
