Busy Mama, raising a full house of boys…

I am not neglecting my blog, but I have been busy, which is not excuse really.

Well I have been planning my little boy’s 1st birthday party, which is a curious George theme. I am seriously going crazy trying to find mini plush monkeys with no luck. Everyone think I am going a little bit overboard, as my sister exactly said “This bday party is becoming more like a wedding.. OMG! lol”. Honestly, I don’t think I am going overboard, or maybe I am blinded by all the excitement, that I just want it to be close to perfect. As you know, I am not trying to please everyone.

Apart from that, my honey’s 7 year old son is spending the summer with us, oh boy oh boy now I have lots of testosterone around, how can I not go insane! lol. Sometimes I just want to hear a female’s voice coming through the door, or just see a pair of sandals that aren’t mine. That’s where my niece comes in handy, I really love when she comes over, because I feel like I am a women again or a teenage girl, whichever lol!

Ok, while typing this blog I got distracted by some cute mason jars, and I think I am about to purchase 2 dozens…hahaha! maybe I am going overboard a little.

Well, today is a rest day from my 30 day abs and squat challenge, and I do see some progress, but I have to say that it is no longer a breeze. Love the challenge though, because I push myself even when I hate the pain and want to quit.

Ok now, I was just updating you all on what I am up to. Pictures from party, challenge and whatever else will make it on the blog. No worries!! 🙂

What are you guys up to? if you did any of the challenges, what was the results?

Mama can do it all, oh yeah!

Sometimes you g…

Sometimes you gotta create what you want to be a part of. -Geri Weitzman

Some would envy my life, others would think it is insignificant, but I am creating my own destiny.

I recently saw this quote on twitter the other day, and it has dawn on me that I am doing too much researching and less action. As a mom of a 10 month old today (Happy 10 months baby boy), I am usually trying to find the balance to do what I love and being an unselfish mom. My passion is to be a reputable event planner in the near future, but I have no professional experience to show for it. I know I have all the skills in the world, the willingness, the passion, but where are my professional pictures?I have been contacted lately by a couple clients, but of course the only thing they really want to see are the pictures of past events.

I started thinking of different strategies and applied for internships and call several companies to see if they were willing to take a volunteer. FAILED.

So there goes my negative thoughts succumbing my brain. I was frustrated, because there are so much I want to be a part of. I want to own several business, but in that instant moment I felt stuck. So when I read that quote, it changed my attitude. I decided to bring the party to my house, by creating my plan of action so I could be a part of what I want. It is hard to find the balance between being a mom and trying to own several businesses, but a simple quote could motivate you and remind you how incredible you really are.

So what I am doing? I am taking action, even if that means going everywhere with my 10 month old. 🙂 (He’ll enjoy the ride anyways)

Are you creating what you want to be a part of or just waiting for it to happen? What motivated you to create your own destiny?
