Wonderful things to come.

While I have a free minute I have a few things that I want ya'll to know. First, poor O has been sick for what seems forever. On Saturday night he really scared me with his coughing and wheezing. So back to the hospital we went. He had to have chest xrays and all sorts of stuff. It was NOT fun. But he was such a big boy and did so well. The diagnosis was a virus, no RSV thank goodness. They did put him on some breathing treatments though. Every 4 hours or as needed. Which is about accurate, more so at night.

I've also been slaving away at getting things together for my company!! I am now officially an Event Coordinator. I have my first few events in the books and am always looking for more things to keep me busy (So if you're interested... wink wink). A couple of birthday parties and an anniversary party so far. But weddings and such are what I would really LOVE to do. I will get there. I know you are all thinking, "Can she take on another earthly thing?"

Well I am actually really glad to be so busy. Just not while O is sick.

I also have been trying to workout every night after he is in bed. It has been working out pretty nicely and I am finally seeing results. After a little over 10 months I can finally see what used to be my body... or close to it. I know that it is altered a little but I think I will be pretty happy to be able to wear swimsuit again this summer. Holler! I am EXHAUSTED... But I will leave you with a picture of my little helper. Have a good night ya'll. xoxo

A long week.

I have spent most of this week with a sick little ginger baby. First, it was the flu and now it is a massive cold/respiratory problem that has me WORN out. I basically haven't been sleeping at all at night because Owen has had fevers, puking, and just can't get comfy. I get a couple of hours during the day. It has got me feeling not so good today. Either way, I don't care because Owen is So snuggly, lovey to his Mama even. For that I am grateful.


Thursday, even though we were both exhausted and sicky we went to Stephen's sister's wedding. It was very intimate with just a few family members. (wish hubby could've been there) Nevertheless, it was good to get out of the house for a couple of hours.





Last night we went to Genji, a Japanese Steakhouse. SO GOOD. I had never been to one before and they prepare the food in front of you and do some cool tricks with their spatulas and knives and stuff. I will definitely be going back, especially when Owen is awake to enjoy it too. Poor bug, zonked out a few minutes after we got there.



On another note... Can you believe that O is 10 months already?! I cannot. He is doing miraculous things. It amazes me at how smart he is and is learning new things everyday. Just yesterday he said puppy and started pointing to different animals in one of his books when asking him where each one was. He also, while in Target last night was waving at different people as we walked by them and then started clapping at each one of them. It was the CUTEST thing I have ever seen.


He also LOVES to talk to Stephen. He says Hi Dad or Dada and that is all he says just about all day long. Unless it is Mommy Boobie. Meaning he is hungry. I am trying to teach him some sign language now so that we can communicate a little better and I can understand what in the heck he wants. He says "Uh-huh" and "No" (while shaking his head back and forth) Adorable! He says " I love you" and a bunch of other gibberish too. But I am Loving this and being a mom. So the lack of sleep is alright because the rest of the time it is so very much worth to spend time with my little Chubber and see him learn new things, while I am learning from him too!

I can't forget that he is walking! Well when he wants to. But, it is a start and I am amazed at his little stagger. Growing boy. We sure love him.


If anyone is curious, Stephen is doing well in that far off land. You know the one with the war going on. I get to talk to him often, and when I don't he always tries to send me a short email here or there. It uplifts me and keeps me motivated. I sure love that other Ginger Boy of mine. That brings me to my next point.. we have known each other for an entire year. It is crazy to think about all of the things that have happened in the last year. Mainly, giving birth to O and getting married! All in the same year. Pretty amazing to me. Can't wait to see what years 2- a million are like. (: Love you Hon-ay!
