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. Ultimately my goal is to leave it as a legacy to my children and possibly anyone else who wishes to follow my journey. This little corner of the web documents 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!

December Snapshot 2024

December Snapshot 2024

I’m currently sitting tucked cozy under the covers at 8PM. Bringing the Christmas magic is both such an immense privilege I don’t take for granted as a mother, but it’s also exhausting. After a full festive season of family gatherings, outings, decking our halls, baking, purchasing and wrapping presents and a full morning at church leading worship (in my pj’s as it was Pyjama day!), I am tuckered out but slowly feeling the pep returning to my step. I started this little online scrapbook in 2014 and it’s surreal to think I’ve kept this up for a decade. I still don't plan to promote this for an audience nor do I think it’s format will change much this upcoming year, but I am thankful for this little corner of the internet in a way that feels genuine and authentic as well as allows my children privacy and anonymity. My viewership appears to be a small select few that I know IRL and if you’ve followed along thus far, I want to think you and hope you have felt I have shared something worthwhile. To anyone reading this, I hope you and yours have had a wonderful holiday and happy new year.

This year’s book, at midnight turns to footnote in the next.
