Perfect Rainy Saturday

Today has been one of those perfect rainy days. Swimming lessons started our day. Then we went to a really cool place called Happen Inc and made pinch pots. The afternoon was spent napping, and cheering on UK to a win. Finally pizza and a movie capped off the day. All in all a perfect day!

Back to Work

So tomorrow is the first day back to school after the nice long break (16 days anyone).

I am also going to begin "living" tomorrow. That means WW and the gym - two things I must do.

Here's to a happy Monday!

Listening to the little things

So I am barely going to make my self-imposed deadline - 365 days of blogging - but here I am. Today was a very low-key relaxed day. Although we didn't stay in jammies, we could have. Literally we didn't leave the house except to get dinner (pizza party from Little Caesar's).

I have been thinking more about how I can be a better me, a better wife, a better mom and I have some ideas... Just listening to what others are saying is so important. Everyone wants to feel special, and so many times I am multi-tasking and miss the little things.

Wishing everyone a wonderful night and sweet dreams...

New Year, New Experiment

Many people on New Years, myself included, make a list of resolutions they intend to follow in order to "correct" what they percieve is wrong in their live.

This year rather than "fix" what is wrong in my life I plan on LIVING my life. This may sound silly but I intend to have fun, remember who I used to be and enjoy the little things. So without further ado, my list of how I plan on LIVING my life:

1. Live every day as though its my last and enjoy each moment entirely.

2. Be the best wife and mom I can be - not who I think I should be, but who I can be.

3. Take care of myself. This includes exercise, pampering, alone time. I deserve the best!

In order to chronicle my attempts to follow my "rules for living" I pledge to update this blog each day for a year.

Best wishes and Happy New Year's to you and yours!

Thanksgiving and Birthdays

Thanksgiving break is upon us once more. I can't believe that Will is turning 4 on Thursday. Where have the years gone? It seems like just yesterday I found out I was pregnant. The hectic pace of the holidays is once again setting in. The fear that I won't get everything done, that it won't be the best holiday it can be... Ok, enough of my ramblings for now.

My Sparkle

So something must be done. And I am going to start today. I have been sitting at Starbucks, planning what I can do and I think I am ready. 1, 2, 3, JUMP!
