Hey there, I’m Annalissa! I’m 23 years old and a mother to boy/girl twins. My husband, Oakley, and I live in the midwest and we both have careers doing hair. Oakley is a barber, and I am a cosmetologist. Yet, we both agree our greatest job is parenting our twins. We had no idea how much our worlds would change when we became parents, to not one, but two babies!
We got engaged July of 2018 and just a few short months later we found out I was pregnant with twins. The doctors appointments started rolling in and I was slowly becoming a mother. While it was such a blessing, it was also a huge transition. As many of you mothers know, nine months isn’t enough time to prepare. One of the main reasons I’ve started this blog is to shed light on the journey from conceiving to birth. While it’s not always talked about, I know how much it would have helped me throughout my pregnancy to be able to read about other mother’s struggles.
Being a full time mom isn’t easy. Everyday comes with trials and tribulations that all mothers face. I truly believe every mom needs a purpose to keep going. While there are times that I find myself both physically and mentally exhausted, my twins are my motivation. In Like Twin is an outlet to share my personal experiences and struggles throughout my journey of motherhood. Whether this blog is a place that the expecting mother can find some comfort, or if it is a place for that experienced mommy to find some common ground. I hope you enjoy these little bits of my life as a wife and mother to twins!
– Annalissa ❤
