Summertime Encouragement
The end of May means we are half way through 2019. Can you believe that!? The end of May also marks the end of spring and the beginning of summer. Summer is a time where people tend to let loose and indulge in things they enjoy. This is not a bad thing, by any means....
What Does Leviticus Teach Us?
Recently, I have been encouraged by multiple sources to make time for silence. Complete silence. This time is different than my quiet time with my Bible and journal. This time is a time for God to make moves inside of me. This time does not comes easily- I am one to...
Easy Meal Prep for Toddlers
Being my lazy and busy self, I enjoy finding the easiest way to do things. Even if it means taking extra steps in order to make something down the road a lot simpler. Meal prep has been apart of my life for many years now and got me through long study nights and 12...
5 Tips for Fighting Laziness
One of my biggest faults (only one of the list of many..) is my laziness. If I don’t have to, I don’t want to and I probably won’t. The greatest example of this is in my schoolwork. I wait until the due date to start and finish. That includes small...
5 of the Best Podcasts for Christian Women
This past December I decided to “unplug.” For me, this meant pulling back from most social media interaction. Pulling away looked like deleting apps and only going to Facebook to update family with pictures and short blurbs. But for 5 months I did not spend my...
Redefining Mombod
We have all heard it time and time again. The term, Mombod, is engraved in our heads hours after we give birth to a human being. Though this should be a time of celebration and overwhelming joy and pride over what our bodies accomplished, it can tend to be a time of...

Ariel’s Birth Story
February 19, 2018, as cheesy as it is, was the day my life changed. Ariel came into our lives at 3:51pm on a Monday afternoon. She was tiny and perfect and came with 6 pounds 3.4 ounces of emotions and love I had no idea I was capable of. To say it was the best day...
Hi! I'm Alana
I am so glad that you stumbled upon Tired Mom Life. This is my small corner of the internet where I share my heart, what God is doing in my life, and how I work to see Him in all of the jumbled life of being a mom, wife and follower of Christ. My prayer is that God is able to touch you through my experience and that you will be encouraged that you are not alone, and you are so loved.
I am a young-mother to my 1 year old daughter, and a wife to the spiritual leader of my prayers. I love being outside, going for walks, writing and being with my family. I am excited to be pursuing this God-given passion of writing and I am so thankful you have decided to come along.
Seek the Lord and His strength; seek his presence continually!
