Mom & More Intro ✨

Hi Moms!

I love the idea behind this event and I think it’s so cool to learn more about the community. I wanted to introduce myself a little and share what I was like before I became a mom this year!

I thought I’d share one of my favorite things that I’ve done before having babies. I have always loved hiking and a couple years ago I thru hiked the Appalachian Trail by myself. Growing up, my dad used to bring me and my two sisters to the White Mountains in NH and I always had a fondness for that area and the beauty of it. When we used to camp we would see thru hikers and I remember thinking I wanted to go on an adventure like that some day. Then I made it a reality! :smiling_face:

Fast forward to this year and I’m starting my absolute favorite adventure of my life with having my twinnies! I can’t wait to take them out and show them the beauty of the outdoors. I think it’s so amazing as moms to incorporate our interests and hobbies and I look forward to discovering what my babies will be into.

Wow, what a beautiful picture. I also like hiking, but the last mountain that I hike was in Ireland and I struggled a lot.

Any tips to be a better hiker?

Thank you so much for posting this because I like learning more about different moms in this group. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
