About Me

My photo
Hi everyone, thank you for visiting my blog! Let me tell you a bit about myself. First I'm a wife then a mother of two (a 5 & 1yr old). I love to share my experiences, thoughts, ideas, questions really just about everything, lol! I want to be a positive motivation by sharing what I go through. You never know what I'll post, believe me, sometimes I blow my own mind. Having children = never a dull moment. Through it all I try to take one day at time remembering to keep breathing through it all :)

Thank you for making who I am on this Mothers Day....

   On this Mother's Day I want to do something different, I want to write a letter to God and my husband. On this day that is intended for women I'm looking at a different aspect.

   Dear GOD our heavenly Father,
I come to you to Thank you for the two blessings you gave me: one 6 yrs ago and the other about 2 yrs ago. Some women have the ability to have children and others are not. Both blessed in their personal situations even though they may not always see in that manner. Only you have the power to breath life and I was a given the blessing of a title called Mom! I Thank you for this blessing each and every single day. They are amazing in their differences even though hand fulls at the same time. Thank you for the blessings that have been poured over their lives. Our children have been dedicated to you and pray for your hand of protection to always be with them.

In Jesus name I pray, Amen.



   To my husband;
I Thank you for the children we have and for trusting me in the decisions I have to make every single day with them. Thank you for allowing me to always strive to be the best mom I can and reassure me when I have "those days" that I'm a great mom. Thank you for trusting I will always do whats' best for our family and backing me 100%.

Luv Ya
Your Wife ;)

My daddy is 6!!!!

  Yesterday my daddy turned 6 and we went all out! OK, not really but as much as we could.

Saturday came and left, needless to say I'm glad! Party planning was done in about a 2 week time frame due to my son changing his mind. He wanted Sonic the Hedgehog but when we explained he may not get Sonic toys he decided to change it to Lego Spiderman.  That left me with about 2 weeks before the party which was ok but finding decorations, invitation and games is what got me.

Here are a few pics;
Cake I made. A few boo boo's but the birthday boy loved it!!

1st game, Guess how many Legos are in the jar.
  
Spiderman Dart game

 

Ring Toss

 
Spiderman catching bad guys. He had to turn them good.
 
 
PINATA!! What's a party with no piñata? The chairs in the background were part of another game. I have no pic of that one though :( Only a video but its 2 min and shows all the kids.
 
Most of the ideas came from Pintrest which I'm addicted too! (Guilty pleasure, lol) We also took him out the Rainforest Café yesterday and give him his gift. He had a blast so it was worth it. He's such a great kid that we had to do what we could. We use to buy him toys just for the fun of it but that has stopped and either child gets things unless its a birthday or Christmas. My son is in dual language and Aspire classes so why not reward him? He doesn't have chores that he gets an allowance from doing them and besides telling him we're proud of him and taking him out to Mc'D's or buying a Dollar Store toy he gets nothing. It's his "Job" to do well in school but just as an adult wants to feel appreciated for what they do I'm doing it for my son! Your Birthday only comes around once a year and it's nothing but a Blessing from God to have survived.  There are many parents that lose children at an early age so every year you have is a time to give praise to God and rejoice! We were blessed to have family and friends to help celebrate and truly grateful for the sacrifices they made.

Daddy's birthday week... racing aginst the clock

   This weeks goals are strictly based on my son's birthday party... 

   I still have many things to do it and a short period to do it in. Normally we don't go all out for his party but this year turning 6 and being in school we decided to try to do what we can. We are having it at a park but this year I have games planned and I hoping to be able to make his cake and cupcakes. He's had a cough since last week but this weekend it came back a little strong. He's thrown up Sunday and yesterday and has had a fever yesterday and today. This isn't what I expected especially this week! I was hoping to get a few things done this weekend but Saturday was a pure run around. Sunday we took the kids to see Thomas; Day out with Thomas! And, there went my weekend.
Now it's rush against the clock; why do I do this with everything I do? Can anyone answer that? Lol. It's ok, you don't have too. My daddy went to the doctor yesterday and he has an upper respiratory      infection so he stayed home yesterday and today. This needs to get out of his system now! We have a field trip to attend on Friday and his party on Saturday, really this is just not the week for any of this.
  I've been trying to do my 'Spring cleaning' since people are coming.  You know I'm not the only one that does this, lol. You know you do the same thing. Sometimes you need that push to make you do the things that you put off. Wait I just openly said I'm a procrastinator, ahhhh! I can't believe I just did that. Oh well, I'm imperfect and this blog is about me being me so there you have it. Back tpo my goals though.....

1) Get goody bags done by tomorrow (Wednesday)
2) Fill piñata (Wednesday)
3) Start Baking(Thursday)
4) Go shopping for paper products (Thursday)
5) Go shopping for food (Thursday)
6) Buy a gift for birthday party on Sunday. (ok, this is going to have to wait until Sunday)

Getting back to my goals....

   Goal setting was put on the back burning for a while all I was trying to do was getting ready to run my first 5k! Which I accomplished, very proud of myself by the way. I'll write about it and post a few pics :)  I usually have weekly, monthly, & yearly goals but I'm not always going to do them this way anymore. Everyday is a new day and we have the same 24 hours to accomplish what ever it is we need to do.  That's really what are goals are, our personal to do list that sometimes we complete and other times we don't!

So here we go:

April goals:
1) Get through the month, lol.
2) Push myself when I don't want to give it anymore

Weekly
Make it to the gym 2 more times this week
Finish planning my daddy's 6th Birthday. ( I'd like to skip this one!)
Go to the park to figure out set up ( part of the top one)
Make it back to the grocery store
Get a new cell phone

Today's
Get invitations done so they can be sent to school with daddy on Friday.
Make it to the library
Wash a load of clothes

Next month is my birthday and I've already set my eye on a gift, it's a personal health goal. This is part of my month goals that will roll into next month as well. I have about a month in half so if I want it I can get it but it won't be easy!

Any special goal/ goals you have right now?
