A Little About Our Family:
My name is Erin I am a thirty something stay at home mom of 2 wonderful children, married to my loving supportive husband for 9 yrs. I am a Susie homemaker who loves to cook, bake using nutritional organic foods. I am a holiday fanatic, and love Disneyland. I am an outdoor enthusiast and love boating, fishing, camping, and really just anything in the sunshine. I am a wine enthusiast who would live at beach if I could.
My husband Anthony is 40 (giggle, giggle) and like me loves the outdoors, camping, shooting, fishing, hiking, and lots of boating. Anthony is a techie web geek at heart and a bit of a workaholic, who loves wrestling with the kids and our dog any chance he can get. With a background in public safety Anthony is definitely the Safety Guy.
Our son Cohen is 6yrs old, in kindergarten and already loves Star Wars, computer games, board games and anything outside. He does flips for anything Lego’s as they are his current passion, He is a great big brother, and taller than most his age taking after his dad who is 6′ 4″ tall!
Our daughter Grace is just about 2 yrs old and Ohhhh what an independent personality, she lets us know very clearly when she wants to go outside and play…ha! Little Grace does nothing slow, she is a runner from birth and is definitely a girl, most days she can be found stumbling around in moms shoes.
We live around Carson City & Reno, Nevada in the high desert so we get to enjoy the beauty mother nature brings every season.

- If you are interested in image button, banner or text advertising on OnceAMomAlwaysAMom.com Please contact us for details.
- I am somewhat stringent on what advertising I allow on the site, as I do not want to over-saturate the site with ads. This site is supported and backed by a National Internet Marketing Firm with a primary focus on SEO (organic visibility / search engine optimization) so pricing will change as we are growing rapidly in organic search visibility, mixed with a little paid search advertising.
- We not only appreciate the interest of our advertising clients, but once approved we will also mention and bring attention to them from our social sites and other venues as well.
- Our advertising clients will have access to the back-end through the plugins we use to see stats on how their ads are performing from and impression and click-thru rate perspective.
- As prices change with our growth/traffic, it will not affect current advertisers engaged in 3, 6, 9 or 12 month campaigns. Though upon renewal current prices at that time will be in affect, so it is always better to think of the long-term strategy when considering advertising with us to get the most out of your advertising dollars. Remember, we are ethically but aggressively working on marketing & outreach for this blog.
