Mother of One Tiny Dragon
Welcome all Mamas (and Dads too!), geeky or not, we are all in this crazy parenting thing together. And now that you have a little one, I’m betting you at least get your share of geekiness by association since kids love superheroes, sci-fi and fantasy.
When I was pregnant, I spent a lot of time reading parent blogs and shopping for kid stuff. I ran across tons of “My Dad’s a Geek” onesies and other dad related geek paraphernalia. I started to feel a little left out. I’m the geek in the family! So that’s why I named the blog Geek Mamas. And now that we have a son, I’m looking forward to introducing him to Star Wars, science museums, reading Harry Potter and all the things I love.
I blogged throughout my entire pregnancy and really enjoyed it. Once the baby was born, I wanted to create a new blog that included all the things I was looking for in a parent site. Something that covered the fun stuff skewed toward my interests. So that’s why I created GeekMamas.com. Once I started writing regularly, Mom Life took center stage and I realized I was going in a more general direction of “mom stuff with a dash of geek.”
So after five years of blogging about toddlerhood and struggling with the SAHMlife, I’m ready to get this blog back on track and put the focus more on Geek Culture, with a dash of Mom Life. The mom blog stuff is all still here, from my very first post, and I’ll continue to add to it. You can find my personal stories under the Mom Life tab. But I’ll also be expanding the geek culture categories and doing more cosplay tutorials. And I hope to get more people and guest bloggers involved as well!

Thank you! I was quite ambitious when I started it and added all these fun categories to blog about. Then the full mom experience sank in and I realized I barely have time to complete a thought much less blog it. But I am settling in and finding my way! And trying to write about it along the way 🙂

Take your time. The world can wait. It took me 6 months after the birth of my first child to feel remotely human again. Hugs.

I look forward to following your blog! The geek is strong in our house, too. Btw, I made very similar Wonder Woman accessories for myself for Halloween this year 😀

Thanks! That was our first mom/son cosplay. He was so Not into it. I think that’s the only pic I got of him not screaming, lol. He played a good angry dragon.

LOL! We cosplayed with our two boys a few years back for FanExpo. They were older. One was the 11th Doctor, the other a zombie version of himself, and my husband and I went at Grimm Blutbad (prosthetics weren’t very good.) It was a great experience!

I’m looking forward to when he gets a little more into it and starts picking out characters he wants to be 🙂
