Happy Holidays!

 This weekend was amazing in terms of family time. My son had an amazing time poping the fireworks. I went down to my moms for the 4th of July and when we got there they had a suprise graduation party waiting for my fiance and I. It was so sweet and we were showered with gifts. The next day my niece, Alexus(Lexi) came home with us and spent the night with Aden. They were playing all night. Shes 6 and he is 3 so she was complaining about how he was getting on her nerves a little. Probably because he was whining about everything as usual. Eventually his dad got fed up with it and made him go to timeout and when he came out he was acting fine. They both were loving lighting the fireworks( with our supervison of course). So anyway, it turned out to be a pretty good weekend.
  Also, I finally remembered a name of a childhood movie I loved. The Seventh Brother. I have been watching it on youtube all day. Its my guilty pleasure I suppose. What is your favorite childhood movie?

Home Videos

 So I was going though my computer files and I found some old home videos. They were all from when Aden was under a year old.  I absolutley loved watching them. It made me go back a few years to when my baby was still a baby. He looks the same, but now he is more like a little boy then my baby that I once knew. It was like a totally different person. It makes me kind of sad to see how fast time goes by. I am going to be sure to make more videos from now on because I know in a few years I am going to miss the person he is now. I wish I could go back in time and live in that age forever. The time where he needed me more then he does now. I wish I could visit the past anytime I wanted to. Also, if I could go back and change somethings that I did, or didn't do as a mother, I would. I know I made mistakes as a mother because I was so unexperienced. I did the best I could with my son, and I am a good mother.
   On another note, Aden just threw a shoe and knocked the bowel off the table. Then the bowel flew at me and sliced my ankle open. He keeps apoligizing. I know he didn't mean too. He's so sweet. I will try to upload some home videos tomorrow. Night.

IDTS

 I'm sitting here watching "True Life" because I had a nightmare and I couldn't sleep and now I have a horrible headache that's either do to lack of sleep or lack of food. Anyway, in this episode this 16 year old girl had a baby and her and her boyfriend split up after the baby was born because he was cheating. But then it showed how this scum bag was taking her son and letting his girlfriend who he cheated on her with, be around the baby. She was holding him, and feeding him, and posting pictures of him on Facebook like the baby was hers. Then the boyfriend commented on the photo saying " I can't wait to have a family with Rena, shes going to be a great mother. I can tell by the way she looks at Ayden. I would Murder this girl. If there is one thing that you just don't do, its take another women's child and pretend like its yours! And I would absolutely not let the father take my baby anymore without supervision. How disrespectful is that? That's like the worst thing that you can do. I feel so horrible for this girl because she probably expected to have a family with this guy and hes trying to make a family with some other girl using her child. I don't know how you guys feel about it, but that guy would be done in my book!

The Sweet Things My Son Says

    I love Aden. He is so adorable and he says the sweetest things. If I am feeling in a bad or grouchy mood he always cheers me up. For example: I am getting dressed and Aden says " you look pretty mama". Or yesterday when me and my fiance were joking around and he wouldn't kiss me Aden said " daddy wont kiss you?" " Nope, because he doesn't love me" "Well... I love you" =) he knew we were kidding but still, how awesome is it that he says things that are so sweet. This is where being a mother becomes rewarding.

A Trip To The Dentist

  So today I took myself and my son to see the dentist. Aden had a cavity that needed to be filled and I got a free cleaning. Anyway the dentist walked in and he had to be the hottest dentist on the planet. I mean how on earth can I concentrate when this guy who looks like a God is my dentist. He was in his 40's, he was Hispanic, had beautiful eyes, and the most gorgeous face. I almost had an orgasm when he walked it. I swear he reminded me of my husband, that's probably why I thought he was so sexy. Anyway it turns out that I need 12 fillings. WTF? I have NEVER had a cavity and then it hit me. He told me that my enamel was low and that's when I realized that all the purging I have done over the years have ruined my teeth.(lesson learned ladies) And if that isn't enough, I also have no insurance to pay for the $1400.00 surgery and fillings. (I need all my wisdom teeth pulled)
  On another note, I got the teacher job I was talking about! I start on the 23rd. Now maybe I can afford to buy the two cars we need and the dental surgery. It is such a relief that I finally found a good job. I can safely say this has been a great day!

Feel Beautiful

  Being a mother is stressful, and lets just be honest and face the fact that we can't always look our greatest. Hell, most of us probably go around wearing our hair in a bun or pony tail and sweatpants when we are not a work. Don't get me wrong, sweats are my favorite thing to wear, but our husbands probably don't think that sweats are as sexy as we think they are. So this is my challenge to you; get dressed up or do something to make yourself feel beautiful. I know that money is tight but there is inexpensive things you can do to make yourself feel beautiful. I for instance and going to get my hair cut tomorrow for free! I know what your thinking" free isn't in my vocabulary" however you can go to the local college and get the cosmetology students to cut your hair for free or a very small fee. I also am going to stop by Walmart and pick up some hair dye because to be honest, my roots have been showing for quite sometime.
  My new weight loss diet and new hair do is sure to make me feel very sexy. I hope it brings out confidence in me that I haven't felt in a while.  I will feel like a new person and I really hope you will do the same. We are women, we are mothers, and we deserve to feel beautiful! Tell me what you did to make yourself feel beautiful this week!

Back On Track!

   I am so excited to be on track with my weight loss goals! I have to admit after I had Aden I thought the baby weight was just going to come off. I couldn't have been more wrong. I actually gained 20lbs after I had my son. It was all due to laziness. I made excuses to why I wasn't going to workout; it was too hot, it was too cold, I didn't feel good, it was too late etc. I had a million excuses and now I look in the mirror 3 years later and I don't like what I see. But that's all in the past. I am on a low calorie diet and a exercise plan now; its day two and I have done great so far, I have already lost about 2 lbs and I weigh again in the morning. I am so very excited to be making progress again. I am going to lose 40lbs in 3 months! Wish me luck!
