Right now.

Right now as I type this up on my phone... I am nursing my lil' man. Yes, I'm tired. Yes, I would love to be sleeping. Yes, tomorrow will most likely be rough.

But

I would not trade this for all the world. One day my lil' man won't want me. It's a hard realization to have. I know the goal it seems to be with every mother is to get them to sleep through the night. I say screw it. Who cares what Joe Schmo's kid did. I have a little boy who one day won't want his mama anymore. I'll be embarrassing or a bunch of other things. For right now I'm his world. His everything. I'm going to take it and try to hold on to it for as long as possible.

Mama's kiss your kids, hug them a little longer. They won't always be little.

Loves to y'all!
Sweet Dreams

M.I.A.

I have been missing in action for quite awhile now. I wish i could give you some big story about why I have been missing but all I can really say is that I am lazy. It has been on my mind though if that counts for anything.

One thing that has happened since I last posted was that my step-dad passed. He had a heart attack and was gone. It really made me realize how life can be taken away from you in just a blink of an eye.

With his passing it has made me think about my own health quite a bit. Heart problems and problems of those nature run in my family. I know my step dad wasn't my blood but it runs in both families. Anyways my health has been on my mind a lot lately. I actually have a doctor appointment to get myself all checked out this week. My goal this time isn't to be skinny I just want to be healthy. I want to be able to keep up and tire out lil' man when the time comes. I don't just want to be sitting on the benches all tuckered out. I want to be showing him how its done. He isn't walking yet... emphasis on yet. He will be soon so I need to get my butt in shape. I want to be healthy but if I happen to get a smokin' hot bod along the way... so be it. hahahhahahahha

I have signed up for the Joggermom Marathon. What it is essentially that you have one month to run 26.2 miles. That is less than 6 miles a week. 1 mile a day and you are done! Awesomesauce.
Another thing that really spoke to me is that 10% of the proceeds go to the American Heart Association. I would love to do more with that cause as it is near and dear to my heart.

I am telling y'all and putting it out there that I am doing this. I am going to try to update more and make sure that I do this. I lack in follow through very badly. So if you guys have to hear about my walk/run/jog everyday for like the next month or so I apologize now... :) Since we moved we are no where near a gym so if you have any workouts or anything that can be done at home to go along with the marathon. Let me know!!

Have a great day! I promise I'll be back soon!
