My first Mother's Day.

-
I had the most perfect Mother's day. I am so blessed to have an amazing little boy, and an equally amazing husband who made my day special! We started the morning with breakfast with my mom and the rest of my family. Next I had lunch with my boys and finished the day off with dinner at Bryce's mom's house. It was a great day!

Being a mom now, I realize how much of a sacrifice motherhood truly is, and what an amazing gift it is as well. I am so blessed to have had a wonderful and loving mother who sacrificed a lot for me to have a great childhood. I love you mom, and I am so thankful for you and that you are such a big part of my life as well as LJ's!

I hope all of you mommas out there had a wonderful Mother's day. Motherhood is a such a challenging and rewarding gift all at the same time. I am so blessed to be momma to my little man, and more importantly blessed to me married to his amazing father!

My handsome boys:)

Growing up I wasn't the healthiest eater. I played sports so many nights we ate out or had cheap processed meals. Being athletic I never really realized what affect eating poorly did to my body. Plus, I always had the mindset that was "well whatever I'm eating isn't that bad", or "I'm gonna die one day anyways and it isn't because I had too much sweet n low"! But recently I've been thinking way more about my body and what I'm putting into it. I guess kind of started when I became a mom. I didn't just have to worry about myself, but now LJ and his health and his well-being. I wanted to be better in every aspect that I could be, that included my poor eating habits. I had decided that I would make homemade baby food for him, so I bought all of this organic produce and was so excited to make him fresh food! However, then I started thinking, why haven't I bought organic and fresh stuff for me and Bryce from the very beginning.When

"Just think of all you have to be thankful for." This is what Bryce told me as I was crying my eyes out. He was right, I knew he was, and I had let my selfish desires and emotions get the best of me. Why was I so upset when I had the the most caring and  selfless husband telling me everything is okay and the most precious baby boy looking at me wondering what the heck happened to his mom that usually has it all together. Life happened. Being young and married is difficult, and adding a baby and everything else on top of that makes life stressful and not any easier. That morning it seemed everything hit me at once and I was blaming myself for everything little thing. I had just got off the phone with financial aid and they dropped the bomb of how much money we now owe back because of student loans. On top of that, the realization that we were still living in Bryce's dad's house longer than we intended and everything else in my life that stressed me out finally broke

Today my baby boy is 7 months old! Holy cow time flies. I feel as if every day he is learning/doing something new! I am so blessed to be able to stay home with him on a full-time basis and not miss how fast he's growing up. I decided that I would do a monthly post for my boy, to keep a record of how he's growing and all the new things he's doing. I wish I would have started this sooner, but I guess its better late than never! So, here's all the things that LJ is doing at 7 months: - He sits up all by himself - He scoots! Everyday its seems that he's going faster and farther! - He's starting to pul himself up onto things...like the rocking chair. HAHA. - He likes patty-cake, swinging, and playing with Pip - He likes to go for walks, and LOVES being outside - He loves his baths now, he just gets mad when we take him out! - He can say ba-ba, and i swear i've heard him say ma-ma :) - His favorite foods (besides milk) are pears, apples, and butternut sq
