MOMMYLOGUE: A RAW, REFRESHING TAKE ON PARENTHOOD BY MOM-OF-TWO ELLE DOUBLE U PEPPER

Online Diary Chronicles the Daily Adventures of Parenting Two Sweet and Spicy Kids

    Revealing. Refreshing. Raw. Mommylogue.blog is the newest voice in parenting, an online diary where Lindsey Whiting-Schnepper under the nom de plume “Elle DoubleU-Pepper 🌶” writes about the hardest career a woman can have: mommying. With unusual candor, a razor-sharp wit and an abiding love for her little ones, “Elle” shares with readers her daily life raising two precious kids. 

“It’s my inner dialogue (my mommy voice) unedited, unfiltered and undeniably relatable,” says Lindsey.  “It’s my real-life documentation of the coveted community called mommyhood. My scrapbook of stories.”

This just launched blog includes stories by Lindsey aka “Elle DoubleU- Pepper” about how her life sometimes resembles the 80s comedy Adventures in Babysitting, mommying in the time of Final Four and going crib-less for the first time in seven plus years. 

“I remember when I first got this crib. My older lovie was still in my belly and I was on the cusp of this journey,” she writes. “By the time he turned 2-years-old, I was sure I was one and done. But a year later, with a pap smear and a pep talk from my OBGYN, I got knocked up again. It’s was actually classier than that but it’s a story for another time. By year three, we used that crib for the second little redhead in my life, and I have to admit it reminded me not only of my kids’ youth, but my own. Now, after seven plus years, my house is crib-less. Which has taken on a different meaning for me. No, I don’t want more babies -- I love my children beyond, but two sometimes feels like 10, even on the best days -- and I feel like I’ve entered a new stage. A new milestone in mommyhood.”

Lindsey Whiting-Schnepper is a New York area mother living with two little red heads and her ginger-hued husband. Over a decade ago, Lindsey began writing her daily thoughts in the notes section of her phone whenever she had a moment to spare, but just recently she decided to jump into social media pool. She worried less about getting her professional blow dry wet— exposing her natural curls and more about sharing these memories and milestones with the world— she writes like she is wearing her heart on her sleeve, which steadily built a growing audience. Now, with Mommylogue.blog, she is sharing her stories with a whole new audience.

“I think moms will appreciate my perspective because it’s real. I don’t sugarcoat the daily challenges we face raising children,” she says. “Every day is an adventure. Some days are better than others. Some days we feel like total failures others are epic. But each day belongs to us. This is my way of sharing those stories.”

NEWSDAY— Faces of Long Island

Faces of Long Island celebrates the uniqueness of everyday Long Islanders. In their own words, they tell us about their life experiencesh, challenges and triumphs. Newsday launched this social media journey into the human experience to shine a light on the diverse people of this wonderful place we call home.

NEWSDAY— Faces of Long Island. “I’ve been writing my whole life and keeping a diary. Before I became a mommy, I wanted to make scrapbooks of my children, recording their milestones. After becoming a mommy, twice, I didn’t have time for the typical scrapbooks, but I needed a place to record the milestones, theirs and mine. That’s when I began to write the next chapters in my grown-up diary, recording the details of our day, no sugarcoating, maybe even a little spicy.”

“It’s cool to be flawed, it makes for a better story.”

“I created a weekly mommy blog called Mommylogue under the nom de plume Elle DoubleU— Pepper. It’s not a recipe book, not how to be a better parent, not a hack; it’s what happened each week with my children, my life. I’m the secret spice in my family’s sauce. My children are made from a wicked combination of love, science and magic, and they are my renaissance.

People say Mommylogue is the mommy version of ‘Gossip Girl’ meets Carrie Bradshaw… “
