Hi and welcome to my blog The Denver Housewife! I’m so happy you decided to stop by.
The Denver Housewife was started in September of 2011 and is a parenting and lifestyle blog. The Denver Housewife blogs about everything that goes along with raising a family from Product reviews, Fun events, Recipes, Travel, free printables, DIY, and everything in between.
The Denver Housewife was started after we moved to Denver, Colorado in 2011. I’ve always loved sharing my opinion on things I have tried and what better way to do that than with a blog!? Having a family is a lot of work and buying new products for them can be stressful. My hopes are that I can make your life a little easier by sharing products I like with you and take the guesswork out of “if my family will like it”. In addition to fun things to do, yummy eats, and more.
About Me
My name is Jamie. I’m a 30 something-year-old mom to 4 and wife. Originally from San Francisco, Ca we moved to Denver, Colorado in 2011 to raise our family and have fallen in love with the beauty of Colorado. In 2016 we bought our first home in the suburbs of Denver. I’m a medical biller, turned stay-at-home mom, turned blogger. I spend my days having funny conversations with my kids, ignoring the cleaning that needs to be done, and finding new ways for us to experience life together.
About the Family
The hubs and I met many many years ago and we were friends for many years before we finally started dating. He’s truly my best friend. I know everyone says that about their husbands, but he was my best friend before we started dating and has continued to be one. He’s the person who can always cheer me up when I’m having a bad day, make me laugh over the silliest things, and is just my partner in life. We see eye to eye on almost everything and it’s comforting knowing you’re going through life and raising kids with someone who is truly on the same page as you. Together we have a blended family with 4 kids.
Eric is my 18-year-old son who lives in California. While he’s not very active on my blog, since he’s a few states away, he still makes an appearance once in a while. He’s more of the shy one in the family and likes to keep to himself.
Together the hubs and I have an 11-year-old daughter, Maddie, who has a bubbling personality. She is a real people person who loves all things mine craft, anime, arts n’ crafts, and amusement parks. She’s definitely my little thrill seeker and always keeps life interesting with the funny things she says. She loves helping out on the blog and is often upset when a package arrives that’s not for her to try out.
William is our 7-year-old son. He’s our crazy little one and always keeps life interesting with his shenanigans. He loves race cars, Spiderman, and legos. While he loves to terrorize his sisters, he will go fight for them in a heartbeat.
Caroline is our youngest one and is 5 years old. She is the baby of the family and it shows. She loves to play with food and cook, Trolls, and all things related to babies. She has the bubbliest personality and is oh so goofy.
The babies aka George & Gracie. We rescued the babies (our cats) in 2018 and I love them fiercely like they’re my kids. George is a fluffy black kitty who is full of affection, is an attention seeker, and loves to talk to us.
Gracie is a grey kitty who loves to be on her own. She acts like she doesn’t want to be around us, but when you’re snuggled up on the couch or in bed she’ll creep over and snuggle up next to you to take a nap. They both love their toys, treats, and fighting over prime window spots to stare outside.
How We Spend Our Time
Our family loves relaxing at home and spending time together, traveling to new places, visiting amusement parks, zoos, and other attractions, and eating out together. We’re all into technology and have our own iPads, spend time playing video games together, and watching movies. We go through life together as a family and there’s never a dull day in our house.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you’ll check back often as new reviews are posted, yummy recipes are shared, and fun giveaways are going on! The Denver Housewife is a PR-friendly blog that is always looking for new partnerships!
