About HoisiHouse

Mom of 2 wild boys renovating our family home one room at a time. Decorating on a budget, working with what I have or searching for the right things for the right price. I love thrifting through Facebook market place, garage sales or shops. Transforming a room with a little paint, elbow grease and true DIY fashion.

MotherHood

The days when you're standing in the daycare parking lot, crying outside your car because your toddler refuses to buckle up in their car seat. Those moments when you want to run away to swim in an ocean of margaritas. The nights when you let them stay up playing on their tablet because it's easier than fighting them at bedtime. The moments you catch yourself arguing over chicken nuggets and oranges and have to remind yourself that your an adult. The nights where you want your bed space back instead of learning how to sleep on the edge. BUT then you remember your babies won't always be babies and you have those nights where you stay up late with them, cuddling in bed, watching a movie and they fall asleep next to you - that's when you wonder how you got so lucky.

Boys & Men

That Venus & Mars thing is actually a thing. There are certain things we’ll never understand about the opposite sex. We’re complex in different ways. It doesn’t matter how many times you talk about those certain things, you’ll still leave the conversation with a question mark on your forehead. I live in a house full of males and struggle to understand them daily. One: the bathroom always smelling like pee no matter how many times you clean it. Two: they have no fear and don’t always look at the outcome of things. For example: If I jump from this tree, I could break my arm. They just jump without thinking. Three: they change clothes multiple times a day due to their messiness. Our laundry baskets are half full at the end of the day. BUT they make life more fun, adventurous, and spontaneous. I love trying to see life through the eyes of Mars.

Mordern Family

Living with your parents? In this day and age, it’s becoming the norm. It’s frowned upon in American society, yet in other countries around the world families (grandparents, parents and their children) have been doing it for centuries. Pros: live in babysitters, extra help with housework, extra ears and mouths to listen and give advice. Cons: Less privacy and space, louder televisions, family disagreements. With the economy today, young parents like Kyle and myself can’t afford to live on our own. But we hope to get there someday in near future.

I had Talon before I met Kyle from a previous relationship. We were a package deal and Kyle stepped up as a father figure and it was the best thing that happened to us. A year later, we had Cohen. We’re not married and that’s ok. We’re untraditional and backwards but it’s working for us. Don’t fix what isn’t broken, right? We’re just your average(?) modern family.
