I'm Kristin. I am a wife, designer, Christian and for now a SAHM. My husband and I are parents to three kids- Dylan Archer, Kyler Jude and Noelle Rose. Despite the name, this isn’t a mommy blog and you won’t find sponsored content here. My target audience is actually my children when they grow up if they wish to reflect on their childhood so everything I share has them at the forefront of my mind and secondly those who wish to follow along my journey. I created this space to document my family's adventures and lessons I've learned along the way. The Mom Jungle is a modern interpretation of both the family newsletter and scrapbook.
I call this The Mom Jungle because motherhood is fun and messy, filled with laughter and sometimes heartache… it truly is a jungle out there!
If I could, I would pack my bags and head to the beaches of sunny Mexico! My husband has been there numerous times and raves about the food. I realize my experience of "Mexican" food really fits into the Tex-Mex category, but you can't go wrong with spices, avocado and lime. One of our favourite spins on enchiladas is this Quinoa Enchilada Bake. It's vegetarian and a great Meatless Monday option. Why not give it a try?

Cabin fever has set in! We've been under extreme cold warnings for the past two weeks. Last year the phrase "Polar Vortex" was all the rage; this year "Siberian Air Mass" is making waves. Either way, it is cold up in here!
Warm yourself up with these yummy roasted chickpeas!
Fast forward two years later with a healthy baby and still sometimes I am scared. I can dwell on all the worst-case scenarios and find myself overcome with worry to the point that it is debilitating. Can you relate to this?
Although I think that love should be celebrated all 365 days a year, there is something magical about a day devoted to love. Granted, Valentines is mostly a commercialized event, but I love love.
