Chapter 34 (well...in a few months that is)


I LOVE coming home from work and seeing that smile that my son gives me. I think it is safe to say he definitely knows who I am and the feeling is UNBELIEVABLE! I just want to see those little teeth behind that HUGE smile all day long (and as of June I will be able to). I have been offered a job at the daycare that my son currently goes to. Now if this isn't a once in a lifetime opportunity, I don't know what is. I will be working with children (which has been my passion for a very long time now) and I will be there to watch my son grow and blossom into a little boy.
I have known since around February that I was going to be working there and I didn't want to say anything to everyone for many reasons. (questions, concerns, and worries to name a few) Only a few people were told and they too were itching to tell someone about it. I personally wanted to shout it from the roof tops!!
Another chapter in my life is about to close and I can not wait to see what life has in store for me next. You will all have to keep reading my Blog and stay tuned!!! =)

When I told Josh the news he got very excited!

Well....we all kind of know he didn't understand what I was saying when I told him that mommy put in her notice at her current job. But I sure like to think he felt my relief and excitement and was basking in the glow of my happiness!!
Just look at this face.....you can't tell me he isn't happy for mommy!! HA HA


Anyhoo, I just wanted to share the joy with all of you. I am different person already. I have courage and confidence and a future to look forward to. Like I said, a NEW Chapter to begin. I would do anything for the people I love. ESPECIALLY that little boy. You could never tear me away. He is stuck with me for life and from where I sit....he doesn't seem to mind so far!

Here's to the future:I hope it goes by super slow

Crazy about my Monkey....



It is amazing to me how time is flying by. I know people say it all the time and they say "enjoy it while it last" but you just kind of shrug it off. When you are "in the moment" it seems things will be like that forever. Especially when things are good. I just wanted to take a look back and share all the growing my little guy has done. I just can't believe it!! I must say people were right, I am sure others will not believe me, when I tell them the same. (I know he is only almost 8 months old but to me its more like....HE IS ALMOST 8 MONTHS OLD!!)
You have to live it, learn it, and LOVE it. (enjoy it while it lasts.)
See for yourself (not that you didn't believe me) Sorry this is going to be a LONG post!

I have so many pictures I honestly can't choose just a few...It was nice to go through them all though and remember every second of his life. Sorry to bore you with pictures and stuff...but this is what I felt like posting today. I miss him so much during the day, that I wanted to do a little something for him.

Talk to you soon!

Happy Easter!!




We had a nice Easter. Josh got so much for his first Easter (you would have thought it was his birthday) Anyway, aside from the turkey being a little dry and NO MASHED POTATOES....I think everything turned out nice. The weather was nice, the company was nice and Josh was a happy happy boy!












I hope everyone had a VERY nice Easter as well....and if you don't celebrate it, well, it was a gorgeous weekend anyway. SO all in all there were many good reasons to be outside or with family or doing whatever you love!!

Have a great week everyone...
