New Here? - The Northwest Momma

Hi there! Welcome to my little corner of the internet. My name is Emma and I run this blog out of the Seattle area with my husband, Michael, and our two sweet and sassy gals, Hadley Rae and River Blue! You can find out all about me here.

The Northwest Momma started off as a hobby and has now grown into my own online journal where I share all the adventures and experiences from my stay at home momma life. Here you’ll find a variety of posts including parenting tips, DIY projects and crafts, healthy and vegan recipes, fun and exciting places to visit in the PNW, and much, much more! The main purpose of this site is to inspire parents and families and show that you can live a healthy, happy life while being kind to animals and to the earth!

However you ended up here, whether it be through Pinterest or Facebook or a random Google search, I’m glad you decided to stop by and check it out. Lemme show you around a bit!

Couponing at Target

$20 or Less - Who says eating healthy has to break the bank? Every other Tuesday*, I post a deal scenario using coupons and sales to help you save at the store. And, as you may have guessed, deals will never cost you more than 20 bucks.

*Since our switch, I’ve been testing the waters in vegan couponing, so $20 or Less may not be every other Tuesday. I will get back to bi-weekly deals as soon as I get my groove back!
