The Baby Spot Bests- May

I started blogging last year because I was dying for a place to document my life as a new, “young” mom.  I’m in my twenties, my husband works long hours, and I wanted– No, needed a creative outlet.  I was absolutely blown away my growing success.  “Whoa, people actually care about things I have to say.”  I know how busy moms are, and I know that we each have different skill sets and talents.  I wanted to create a blog for moms with children under one who could find easy recipes, good deal, and some comedic relief.  I wanted to be the kind of blogger that people responded to and wanted to read while they were nursing or drinking a cup of coffee.  My hope with my new blog was that people who were interested the ways I save my family money or teach/interact with my toddler would have everything in one place and it would spend up their lives.  I know I’ve learned so much from other moms, I just wanted to share some good tips and advice.  Most importantly, I wanted to create a blog that consistently praises the Lord and lets mothers know, we are equals and should not give into “mom guilt.” It wasn’t until I became a mom I even knew such pressures existed for mothers, and I wanted to establish a blog that made people see no one is perfect.  As for a little more about me, I’m a Southern lady living the military wife life in the Midwest.  I have an 18 month old and I’m almost 7 months pregnant!  I’m a stay at home mother, I love photography, and going to the gym.  I’m a sucker for a good coupon and sale pairing, I read a lot, and love to laugh with my friends.  I use my slow cooker a lot, appreciate a good cup of coffee, and I love to make “old” things new.  I’m a blogger at www.themamabomb.com, where I love sharing with other mamas ways to use their time most efficiently, have fun doing it, and always ending the day feeling like the bomb.com.

Jamie sells beautiful, memorable pieces for Moms and children to have as keepsakes! What a wonderful Mother’s Day gift one of her pieces would be! Hint, hint!

We asked Jamie to tell us a bit about herself!

Jamie is the proud mommy of 2 boys and has been happily married for almost 13 years.  When she is not sharing her love for Origami Owl Custom Jewelry with everyone she meets, she is the commercial sales manager & social media rep. for a prominent masonry distributor in New Orleans.  She first became an Independent Designer for Origami Owl in August of 2013, after being introduced to the line of customizeable jewelry at a Jewelry Bar (aka home party).  She was touched by the idea of being able to create a sentimental piece of jewelry and also fell in love with what the company stood for: “To be a force for good. To motivate women of all ages to achieve their goals and reach their dreams.” What started as a way to make extra cash for Christmas blossomed into a passion that has opened the door for her to afford to send her eldest son to the private high school of his dreams!  Jamie is now a Team Leader with Origami Owl and is focused on being a force for good through fundraising for various charities and sharing the Origami Owl opportunity with others.
