The Urine Test

I received this from my brother-in-law and this is one of the few things I’ve gotten from him that are actually worth sharing with others :-).
I HAVE TO PASS A URINE TEST FOR MY JOB, SO.. Like a lot of folks in this state, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay [...]

Will Daddy come for the tea party?

Monday afternoon we called Daddy at the office after Yeyda’s nap.  She was in a good mood and made sure to say hi to her cousin and both uncles that work there.  Daddy brought up something about her “castle” in the back yard.  A couple of months ago on a trip to Cabela’s we bought [...]

I’m momma to a little bean

We went to the OB/GYN on Wednesday and got to see our baby for the first time.  We are proud parents of a lima bean - at least that is what the baby looks like right now.  It is incredible though that the doc was able to show me the little one’s heart beat already.  [...]

Protect Your Family While Blogging

After a few months on the Entrecard circuit I’ve noticed one thing - there is a plethora of people willing to divulge every little detail about their lives, even their children’s lives. I’ve done my fair share of sharing, but not enough to make me feel exposed or vulnerable to anyone out there who [...]

Sowing Seeds of Love

Over the past few weeks since I started my workout routine I had a feeling that something was up.  If you’ve read my blog posts from the beginning you’ll find some irony in what I’m about to tell you.
After a few weeks of sickness - stomach ache, nausea, shakiness - I discovered that I was [...]

I’m Late. . .

These two little words can conjure up feelings of ire, fear or elation. Isn’t it amazing how powerful language can be given the circumstances in which it’s used. Let’s examine:
- “I’m late. . . for work. A raccoon bit my tire and I spun out of control and ended up in the ditch!” Yeah, whatever. [...]

Teaching a Toddler to Read

My little one will be 2 1/2 in a couple of weeks. She loves it when I read to her, telling stories and playing like any normal toddler. I’m focusing in more on teaching her the basic necessities of life: reading, counting, being polite, sharing, etc., etc. Not at all an easy [...]

Days 12 & 13: Discouraged, depressed and distracted

The discomfort I felt on Day 11 after not getting enough fuel to effectively complete my workouts or my day left me feeling limp and uninterested in exercise on day 12. It depressed me a bit because I thought that I’d found my achilles heel that I’d never lose weight. Then I remembered [...]

Day 7: Taking the day off

Today is day 7 of my workout regimen and I think I’m going to rest a bit and recover. Tomorrow I’m going to pick up the pace a bit and do the “Start It Up” video workout from Beach Body’s Slim In 6 routine. It’s about 25 minutes with a warm-up, cardio/sculpting, and [...]

Teach your child a second language

My mother when she arrived in the U.S. after marrying my father didn’t speak very much English. My father wanted very much to perfect his Spanish. After I was born my mother dedicated herself to speaking nothing, but Spanish to me while we were at home alone. At least for a couple [...]
