Sex in the City

    Well where to begin, its only been 3 days since my last blog.... It's felt like a week tho. Surprisingly I am actually getting on here to write another blog again! After my first one I didn't know if I would write another one. It's kind of nice having a blog tho, I can talk about stuff going on in my life and get it out there. I am seriously thinking about starting one for The Doodle Bug! 
    Last night I had the best time I've had in a while. I went to adult tumbling class, its offered at The Matrix. If you have never been and can remotely tumble I suggest going!Tumbling Videos! Its amazing, I love that I can still tumble and get a great work-out in at the same time. My old high school cheer coach Tina Jones teaches the class. I LOOOOVE her and always have, shes such a straight shooter like me. The class is very R rated tho! It's almost like a therapy session, we go in and talk about EVERYTHING.... and I mean everything that goes on in our lives. Its great that a bunch of girls from ages 20-40 can talk about anything and tumble at the same time! I really love it. After the class Madison and I either go to my house and watch Housewives or go to Los Marachia's (you will hear me talk about this place quite often). I love Los, they have the BEST Margaritas and food at a fantastic price! Anywho Mad and I went there to grab a Marg and had a blast. After that we traveled to a Amendment 21 where our friend Kristin joined us! All of us in our scruk-out clothes (scrubs & work-out clothes combined) the bartender gave us that bad a name. We sat outside and enjoyed a white sangria, (which is my FAV drink) and had the best time. We just talked about the most craziest stuff and really enjoyed ourselves. It was almost like we were the Sex and the City girls, Me as Carrie... (Prior to going to amendment I went home to put on pants bc I was cold and ended up changing 10times... All of them being work-out gear, I have a WEIRD phobia about t-shirts, i.hate.them) ok back on track...Kristin as Charlotte- she looooves cooking and being a domesticated, I admire that about her she defiantly fits the Charlotte category- Next Madison... oh sweet Madison is DEFIANTLY- drum roll please.... SAMANTHA, and she owns it very well! Madison has had a serious boyfriend for 3 years now who she lives with, just down the road from me! So don't get it all twisted shes not a slore or anything shes just VERY open about EVERYTHING that goes on in her life. I love that about her!  All 3 of us talking about what goes on in our lives and how we are getting old reminded me so much of Sex in the City. Too bad we don't have a red headed lesbian to fit the Marianda category, I think I'll skip out on that one for now tho!  
    Madison, Kristin, and I have all become very close. I truly enjoy their company, I love that I have made new friends and branched out. Madison and I have really hit it off, I would consider her one of my best friends!!! We literally laugh the whole time we are together! Kristin is great, we can talk about serious stuff going on and our plans for the future :). I still am very close with my best friend from high school- Caroline, Rachael, Reid, and a few others. I know no matter what happens to me or Blakeley they would be there for us! Through this whole experience I have lost a lot of friends and gained a few new ones. I would much rather have 5 BEST FRIENDS, than 10 fake ones that will ditch you for the next best party down the road. It's crazy to think that by the time all of my friends get married and have kids Blakeley will be old enough to be in their weddings and maybe even babysit! I can't wait, but at the same time I can.

     Now off to Bebe... she LOVES the word NO. Everytime I say something or ask her a question that pertains to eating, its naaaaaaaaaaaw (thats what is sounds like when she says no). She LOOOOOOVES to paint! It's precious to watch her! I'll ask her if she wants to paint and she will go pick of a piece of pottery to paint. It's usually this cat figurine I have. She's obsessed with cats.... Kind of worries me, haha just kidding! I can not wait for her to be able to cheer, dance, and maybe even be on Toddlers and Tiaras!!! Ha call me crazy but I. LOVE. TODDLERS & TIARAS! It is adorable, some people do take it to the extreme and that's ridiculous. But the little kids that truly love being on stage and performing, I think it's great! Stage mom, here I come!!!

    
One day I will look back on these blogs and might think- what the heck was I thinking, or it could be the exact opposite. Either way I'm loving sharing my stories with my friends and family. I hope you enjoyed my blog!


To new friends and old friends, to the good and the bad... It was all worth it!

My First Blog

Today I created my first blog! Whoop whoop! My friend Madison and I decided since we were so obsessed with reading other peoples blogs we should start our own. I am going to try and update this page weekly with pictures and whats going on in mine and Blakeley's life. 

Where to begin..... I feel like I am going on 30years old now a days, my life seems to flash before my eyes. Blakeley is all over the place, she is obsessed with Rihanna and loves to dance. I can tell she will be a little performer when she grows up. I have come to the realization that she will be two before I know it. I am trying to cherish every moment I can with her. She comes to work with me every day unless her dad has her. I am still weary about putting her in daycare. She minds me very well and is social with other babies so I don't see the need for it, hey less doctor appointments for me right?! HA. Right now Bebe loves, and I mean LOVES hot dogs (turkey), french fries, and BANANAS (NANANANANA) as she says. Every week she gets on a kick of something new she will become obsessed with, this week it is NANANANANAAAAAAS! She cracks me up, her new word is Monkey. I love it when she says Monkey, she still won't say Carol tho (my best friends name) but she some how manages to say Monkey??? Strange right? She can point out her nose, ears, eyes, and mouth to me. She's like my little Einstein :)

Now onto myself, everyday I wake up at 8am and begin my day, luckily for me my baby sleeps in late! Wohooo! I open my shop by myself every day at 10am. When I say I own my own business I mean it. I come in here everyday with new ideas and creations. I am determined to make something of myself. I am very lucky to have the support of my family and friends to be able to run my own business, of course there are ups and downs to it.... But I wouldn't have it any other way. When Blakeley gets older I want her to look back and say "wow my mom really did make something of herself and us!" I will NEVER be the one to back down from my dream, just because I am 20 doesn't mean anything to me :)


I am VERY LUCKY that Blakeley has such a supportive dad and loves her unconditionally, even tho we aren't together we make to work for Blakeley. I am determined that Blakeley will love Hunter and I equally and know that she has TWO supportive families!!! Hunter's family is amazing and helps out tremendously, I am very grateful for that. My family is my biggest support, my mother inspires me to become something of myself. She raised me by herself as a young mom and made it, I know I can do the same! You're the best MIMI EVER! 

Juggling my life can be crazy, but on the nights I do not have Bebe I try to get some "me" time in, I am currently back with my high-school sweetheart, Louis. Cool huh? It's amazing how things work out! He is an amazing guy and supports me. We have been together ever since New Years Eve, and still going strong!  

Between running a business, keeping Blakeley on track, and juggling my life its pretty hectic but I manage to do it somehow! I think this wraps up my first blog in a nut shell, I look forward to posting more!

Keeping it creative day by day!
