My thoughts

The weather is cold and rainy and I just felt the need to blog about my thoughts the past week :) As a lot of you know, I'm a stay at home mom to a little 1 year old boy and I love it and feel so blessed that we are financially stable for this. I look forward to being with him during all his milestones but man, I need a hobby or a job. Every day is the same thing over and over and over again. Is it wrong for me to feel like I'm just wasting my life away? I know being a mother is a full time job but I don't go to school (don't have the desire) and I just don't do much. I'm starting to wonder if I just need to find a hobby or get more involved with other stay at home moms or possibly get a part time job?! Ahh so many thoughts have been running through my head and I'm just not happy at the moment. I don't really know what to do and I just need to pray to God to point me in the right direction.

Busy month!

Whew! I feel like I finally have time to sit down and write about the past month. Well, Tony FINALLY got home the end of January and we were very happy to have him back! He came home on a Monday and we left for our cruise on Saturday. I was stressed that he wouldn't be back in time for our vacation but he barely was! Our cruise was everything we thought it would be! We had to say goodbye to our little boy for 8 days which was the hardest thing I've had to do so far. Yes, I bawled like a baby more than once!! He stayed with my parents and didn't even seem to miss us one bit. He is growing up so fast and is so independent. Anyway back to the cruise! We went on a 7 day cruise and stopped in Jamaica, Cayman Islands and Mexico. Probably one of the longest weeks of my life! I loved being on vacation with my husband, which happened to be our first one EVER since we've been together, but motion sickness was awful. The boat was beautiful, there was always something to do and the food was amazing but my body just couldn't get used to the swaying. All three of the stops were amazing. Beaches were beautiful, the weather was perfect and we definitely got some sun ;) The vacation came to an end on Sunday and we were beyond excited to see Julian. We got in OKC around 8:30 that evening and got plenty of hugs and kisses from him. We are now back in Abilene and it feels good to be home! It's so nice to stay home and have somebody here to talk to and spend time with! We were so busy that week Tony got home that we finally get to relax together and spend time as a family. This past month has been amazing and I have so much to be thankful for! I can't wait to see what the next few months have in store for us :)
