Hey there! I never really know how to introduce myself properly but here it goes. I am originally from New York but when my husband joined the Marine Corps we had to move to Jacksonville, NC. I absolutely love the south. The people are nicer, the weather is better, and it's a great place to raise a family. Which is why I'm here. My husband and I have a beautiful daughter Abigail Yvonne. He has been deployed for her first year but will be coming home shortly. It will be an interesting transition that I look forward to sharing with you! My life might not be all that interesting but being a mom sure is! Follow my blogs and see what I'm talking about.

I grew up in here in North Carolina and attended Duke for my undergraduate and UNC-Chapel Hill for my master’s degrees. I moved up north to Boston after completing school and worked there for five years as an inner-city middle and high school history teacher. While in Boston, I met my husband, Chad, who was there for school, and we were married the summer of 2004. 2007 was a big year for us – we welcomed our son, Nathan, Chad finished school, and we moved to Jacksonville for a great job opportunity for Chad. Nineteen months after Nathan was born, our daughter, Emily, joined our family. Twenty-two months later, Joshua came along. I’m now a stay-at-home mom to my little brood, having “retired” from teaching after Nathan’s arrival. When I’m not busy feeding, cleaning, dressing, and keeping up with Nathan, Emily, Joshua, and their dad, I enjoy reading, quilting, and going to the beach. I also still cheer for my beloved Blue Devils whenever the opportunity arises and thoroughly enjoyed last season’s national championship. Go Duke! Life can be a little busy around here (hello – three kids under the age of four!), but I’m looking forward to sharing life with three active little ones with you.

Hi my name is Erin Carey and I am the proud mama of Owen who is almost 5 months old. I am married to a wonderful man named Paul who is in the Marine Corps. We moved to the area from California where I was practicing as a horse veterinarian. Since Owen has been here, I’ve taken a break from my vet job so I can stay home with him. We enjoy playing, reading books, and taking our dog Axel for long walks. I can’t believe how much Owen has changed my life and I couldn’t be happier. I look forward to seeing all of Owen’s firsts and exposing him to new situations. I started blogging for Mom Talk when I was pregnant and I enjoyed it so much that I have continued now that I am a new mother. I love writing about my experience as a first time mother and sharing stories, worries, and happy times with other mothers. I don’t know what will happen next but I look forward to sharing it with my readers!
