Hello Darling!!!

Hello Darling-

   Well I decided to start my blog again. Most people go through life with multiple challenges and every day struggles. Some are bigger than other but with my daily challenges I hope to inspire someone somewhere if not you then me all over again. I am 27 a mother of an amazing little boy who turned 1 going on 10. My husband and my son inspire me daily. I've been over weight most my life and have been made fun of more occasions then not when I was younger. As I have matured in life I have learn to deal and just embrace me. At 27 I have decided to take my life back over! I am starting my journey to lose weight again. Lets see where this journey takes me.

Challenging Day

Talk about a challenging day. Well the plan was to get up and take Baby J to the new mops group I signed up for and didn't make it. My little man is teething so he is very cranky. The challenges that every mother face is there kids in pain. I hate seeing him this way. I know.. I know he is growing up but man just a little to fast for my liking. 

Another challenge I faced today was figuring out family vacations and where to go and when to go. I know for Baby J's first birthday I was thinking of taking him to Disney. This way he can get his first haircut there. I am way more excited then he is. We have family in Florida, Ohio, Utah, South Carolina Japan and Connecticut. Its so hard to pick when you want your son around them all. You want your son to know he is loved and can turn to any of his family at any time. 

Nick my husband and I started talking about writing up a living will to make sure we take care of Baby J in the long run. There are so many challenges with that. Who gets who and why and where and split between two families its really hard to pick. On top of that you don't want to think about the what ifs.  Well, off to bed I go for the night. Baby is in bed and I have to be at work in the AM for a meeting. Chat with you soon. Don't forget to hold your head up high and be proud of the person you are today.

Intro

Hello All, 
     I have been debating on starting a blog for people like me for some time now. I decided now was the time. If I can help just one person I feel like my job here is done. I am 26 years old. I married the love of my life 2 years ago and we just had our first child. I love love love him with everything I have. I am a full time student/worker/wife and mommy. There are so many challenges that people don't tell you about or there are so many things that people tell you about and can't believe until it happens to you. Life after a baby can be challenging and frustrating but yet the most rewarding. I hope you enjoy some of the post I will be posted and the challenges I've had. I also will be posting milestones and goals in life. Enjoy.
