Straight From Cupid’s Mouth

Ah! St. Valentine’s Day is once again upon us! With utter dismay, I admit, I seriously suck at buying gifts for my husband. I’m pretty sure he thinks of me the same way Phil Dunphy thinks of his wife Claire on abc’s new sitcom “Modern Family”. In case you missed the episode: Claire surprises [...]

A Day In The Mind Of “Mommy”

Wouldn’t it be nice if all Moms were equipped with a special imaginary friend? Someone who could listen to all our concerns without rolling their eyes or reminding us of how blessed we should feel. I’m extremely blessed and very grateful for my life but sometimes I get overwhelmed and just need to gripe [...]

Everything But The Kitchen Sink!

I confess. I spend a good amount of time watching the cooking channel. Everyone has such sophisticated utensils, containers, slicers, dicers, sporks and such.

Motherhood has its humorous moments and we try to keep it fun here at Southern MOMentum. However, we are also very passionate about making a serious commitment to take care of our bodies. As we start the New Year, be sure you add a necessary resolution to your to-do list… Take the time to call [...]

Unwind In 2010

I recently read this post on Glamour’s web site from Health + Fitness contributing editor Margarita Bertsos who signed herself up for a private yoga session and was instantly hooked.
