I wish I could be a blogger I really do, but I honestly have no idea how to make time in my life being a full time mom and a full time employee! My family time is precious to me therefore I let go of other things I would like to do. I would like to record our lives to look back on and remember. Unfortunately, I was not blessed with the memory gene. In fact there are often times a sibling will tell me something we did as a kid and I honestly don't remember. It sucks! I seriously need to learn to train my memory. Anyway, periodically updating this blog is so I can look back in a couple years and remember our lives as our son grows up!
Now don't ask me where 18 months went. I honestly can't answer that question. It has been a whirlwind of sleepless nights, weekend travels, and spending time with the most amazing husband and sweetest, cutest, funny little boy. We are so blessed to have a little man who is so easy going, laid back, and fun. He definitely got his daddy's personality. He is the cutest thing! I know I am biased but we also get stopped all the time so people can tell us how cute our son is. When that happens, I am the most proud mommy ever. I would love to get him in to modeling because I think he is adorable and has the personality for it, but I am terrified of scams. If anyone knows of a legit company or has the hook-up please please please let me know! Our 18 month old is now 35inches tall (95th percentile) and 28 lbs 10 oz (81st percentile) Needless to say he has remained tall and slowed on his weight. He LOVES basketball (really any ball he can throw through the hoop) and Elmo! He has a strong arm for his age...we're grooming him early. He loves macaroni and cheese, cheerios,and bananas. He will eat some other fruits and still likes puréed fruits the best. He rarely eats vegetables, but we're working on it. We really are the luckiest parents!!!
I am currently looking for a new job. I love what I do and I love love love my coworkers (I seriously have the best coworkers EVER) but my commute sucks. I am trying to find a school counseling job in our local school district or a neighboring school district. I really want to have a 10/11 month contract and have part of the summer off to spend with my baby boy. Hopefully I can find something I like. I'm so fortunate to have such a loving and supportive husband. He has an amazing job that he loves that he has been at for more than10 years. I really count our blessings every day.
On that note it is time for bed. Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing women out there especially my mom, my sister, my grandmas, my aunts, my cousins, my mother-in-law, and my-sister-in-law. You all have made impacts on the way I parent and I only hope I can be as great a mommy as all of you. I love you all!
