Welcome to The French Lemon!

Hi! I’m Chelsea!  I’m a mother of five, including two sets of twins! My children range in age from nine years old to four months old. I work full time and I am currently pursuing a graduate degree as well.  I love to read, write, bake, craft, and travel.  Our kids participate in a plethora of sports, everything from swim team to ballet.  Our family is always on the go.  People constantly ask me how we do it so I created The French Lemon to share (or maybe overshare) our lives with you.

My Vision for The French Lemon

I have blogged in the past.  Most recently, I ran a book review blog at The Wordy Nerd Books.  I love reading books and I always seem to have someone asking for a book recommendation.  I started The Wordy Nerd in order to keep up with the books I’ve read but also to provide a quick review for those interested.  I’ve loved sharing what I’m reading for the past few years but when I started graduate school in 2015 I really began to slack on reading anything for pleasure or posting any reviews.

I’m just starting my last semester of my graduate studies and have really felt the pull to begin blogging again.  While I love sharing my own personal opinions on the books I read, I also want to share so much more so I chose to start The French Lemon.  I envision The French Lemon being a creative outlet where I can share my favorite things, parenting tips I’ve picked up along the way, projects I’m completing as well as the books that I’m reading.

I hope that you will follow along with me as I share what we’re doing, what we’re eating, what we’re reading, and how we are not only surviving but thriving as a family of seven!  You can subscribe via Bloglovin’ by clicking that “Follow” button on the right!
