so WOW--A LOT has happened since I last blogged--lemme see if I can play catch up here. Ross, Liam and myself got moved into the new house---everything was going wonderfully till a list of problems came up---talk about a bug problem--we have ants crawling out underneath the stove, fridge, sink...everywhere!---our landlord--Real Estate Rentals---The WORST---I DO NOT recommend them to anyone looking for rental property--they do not take care of anything what so ever and are not the nicest people to deal with so if you can avoid dealing with them then I support that 150%! But we got all moved in--unpacked--and I realized--we have 0 space and 0 storage for anything--our fridge was falling apart and the house needed some major TLC--luckily Ross' mom let us use her fridge as a temporary fix--thanks Teda :) Rusty and Katie got married!--talk about a beautiful wedding--this was just GORGEOUS!--every tiny detail down to the rose petals on the walkway--we all got our drink and dancing on--and we wished our two very dear friends a long and happy marriage--perfect weekend--complete with Russ', Martin and Johns awesome dance moves to Take Me Home Tonight. Definitely got Ross and I thinking about our next step! :):):) Sigh---I have no idea what I would do--or plan--or anything!--I have never been very girlie and in all honesty NEVER thought about the big day and all the details that go along with it---I don't have a favorite color--or dress--flower--cake--anything!--Just never thought about it. I really hadn't planned on the marriage and kids part till I was closer to 30--but as you see--not everything works out the way you plan it---I couldn't be happier though. But I guess that is where I'm comfortable--not planning--I really just like to go with the flow and see where life takes me--plans just seem to set in stone---I like some flexibility to go and do what I please--whenever I please---BUT that's not to say that I don't have some plan making skills---it's more like organization actually---I hate clutter--and I HATE messiness--my house needs to be in order--I need things to be in their place---I'm NOT OCD or anything like that---control freak??---big possibility--but I think I have a good handle on it---I just thoroughly enjoy things being neat--it gives me peace of mind--that and recycling--I LOVE to recycle--doing my part to save the planet. :) Lets see---what else---work??---lets not go there. It's good--about to get even better. ;)
Liam is turning a year old next month on the 10th--I can't believe it--it literally feels like I just brought him home the other day--and he was all tiny and defenseless--still is--but now he is walking and talking and just all over the place--he is my little miracle boy. He is definitely developing personality--lots of attitude--wonder who he gets that from....Ross. :) Lets see---I turned 25! I practically turned off my phone that day because honestly---I really didn't need constant reminders all day that I am over my early twenties---I really think I had a quarter life crisis--pathetic?---yes--I think everyone goes through it though--there comes a moment in your life when you stop and look around at everyone and everything and either you're happy with your life or you're not---I LOVE my life---but that hasn't always been the case--I have had my fair share of ups and waaaaay downs but I powered through it and now i'm a better person for it--am I complete??---NO WAY--I still have a lot of growing to do---I don't think you ever really stop growing--as people--were constantly learning new things and life lessons--we just evolve--over and over--taking in new knowledge and trucking along--that is satisfying. I never saw myself where I am today--I thought I would be in a big city--living the fast single life--going out all the time--and partying like a rock star where ever I went---maybe a PA to someone rich and famous or maybe even evolving my own line of clothes---( I still dream of that). I just need to figure out where to get my footing and go from there I guess!---I'm focused on being the best mommy I can be---making sure my little man knows that I am always going to be here for him no matter what--i'm not going anywhere. What I don't understand--is how parents can be away from their young children for looooooong periods of time for whatever reason--work--vacation--personal time--now I'm not saying that you don't deserve some adult time from time to time--because Ross and I are guilty of that--when Liam is asleep at night--if Ross wants to go see his boys then cool--do it--Liam is asleep (and harldy EVER wakes up at night)--and same goes for me---like last night--Liam was in bed--and Ross had some work stuff he had to take care of so he gave me permission to go see some of our friends--and I got to see Russ and Katies new house---beautiful home!--and we just played some drinkin games and had a good time...this maybe happens once or twice a week if that--we want to be at home though--with our baby--soaking up all the time we can get!---I mean hell we only see him for maybe an hour or two at most some days--due to work! I take him to the sitter at 8am--I get off at 530--go pick him up and by the time I get home its close to 6 and he is tired from his activities of the day and wants to go to bed by 7---I feel like I can never get enough time with him--breaks my heart. But gotta do what I gotta do to put food on the table. :) Anything for my little rockstar---Well this looks like a good place to stop at for now--till next time! LOVE----and STAY GREEN! :)
