8 months
Wednesday, January 26, 2011
He'll be 9 months next week, but 8 months for my lil guy was a glorious time! He celebrated his first Christmas AND New Years! He crawled and then learned to pull himself up to a standing position, he also got his first 2 bottom teeth at the beginning of his 8th month and his bottom two are now growing.
He also FINALLY said MAMA and learned to wave. It was wonderful to witness it all, I am so proud of my lil man! and so proud to be his mama!

101 in 1001
Ok baby is asleep...
I am one of those people who sets New Years Resolutions every year. Unfortunately, I am also one of those people who rarely completes those resolutions.
When I came across THIS project, I knew it was for me! You set realistic goals and you have a bigger timeframe to complete, since time is my nemesis, I was excited for this.
So I started my list, check it out HERE! It is not complete YET, but I like that I can keep adding to it.
Of course I'll be blogging about my accomplishments!
So do you have 101 in 1001? Any ideas on what to add to my list???

I'm Home Manager?
Thursday, January 13, 2011
Yes, the title has a question mark. I say this just as Ron Burgandy did in Anchorman.
As a mommy that works full time I am constantly searching for balance and I am always looking for tools & resources to help me find that balance. Between working, being mommy, being wife, sister, daughter AND cooking, cleaning, paying bills etc.. and just finding time for myself, I feel like overwhelmed. Did I mention I also volunteer at my church and handle their administrative and financial departments. Yeah, I am stressed. Oh, and the baby still does not sleep thru the night, YAY.
One my favorite websites that I have come across in my search for how other moms get by is Simple Mom, she believes that parents are the home managers and when mom & dad are doing well the whole family thrives. Some of the steps on her blog that she suggests are:
I want to try these. I am not one for routines but now that there is a baby I know it's necessary. One of the steps I have taken to help me achieve more is changing my work hours. I work from 8-4 instead 9-5 and that has cut my commuting time in half since I am missing traffic. It feels great already!
I have also starting setting reachable goals, see my 101 in 1001 list.
My #1 goal? To create a little order in my life so I don't feel so stressed or like I am not accomplishing anything and once said order is set I can live!!!! party & bullsh*t! :)
Let's see how this goes.
