My "blankday" Five

Well who has been the worst blogger in the world the past two weeks? Oh yup thats me. I have been so crazy at work.. especially this week... I swear I have lost 5 pounds this week with all the running around I have been doing. I was looking forward to the weekend but... well without further ado here is everything and anything that means everything or nothing to me this ... blankday...

Five... I do everything in my power to be the most positive person I can be because I have a strong conviction that no matter what is going on in your life you have something to be thankful for because no matter what is going on in your life someone has a lot harder life... This week for the first time in a long time I had a hard time staying positive. I am however still thankful for my blessings and know that if I keep my thoughts in the right place all will be well.
Four... Wedding...Date officially changed from 7/16/11 to 6/4/11 294 days left to go! ..Three... Working and living in the same place takes its toll on a person... paying for gas and driving in traffic is no bueno.... dont take for granted that time.
Two... After a hard week of working out... I am feeling strong for the first time in a long time and i must say it feels really good!

One... I Nursed Aries for the last time yesterday... It all happen so fast... I am still not sure how I feel about it...Sometime two weeks ago he just stopped being interested in nursing. Easily distracted constantly ripping away to look around then he started like almost fighting with me like he did not want to nurse at all and obviously with the serious lack of nursing my supply quickly diminished. I thought babies did not self wean until they were over a year? I feel blessed I was able to nurse as long as I have but its still strange like Now I am just his mom he doesnt rely on me for survival.. I mean I know he does but its strange. "exit" "baba" "mama" "dada" "numnum" All the words he says as he walks around the house. plays patty cake. Runs from you when you come after him.. My baby is no more... with less than two months until he is a year... It apears my papa bear is turning into a big boy... a toddler. He points at little babies and says bahbay... he is so grown.
Thanking God for everyday

Friday Five... Big DEBATE

So I guess it’s my Friday Five this week, thats a first, and I am participating in That 22 year Old Housewife's Friendship Friday! : )

My heads are in the clouds so to keep it simple here is everything and anything that means everything or nothing to me this Thursday Friday.

Five.. Completely skipped out on My Wedding Wednesday this week because like I said my heads are in the clouds…I have accomplished little to nothing. I went dress shopping to break the tie between the two dresses I was in love with and ended up finding two other dress that I love more… : / Can we say EPIC FAIL! I do however have A LOT of fun stuff to talk about next week! : )

Four… I think the TV is eating my soul… Or at least taking up my time… It must just be that time of year or something but man Real World, True Blood, Jersey Shore, Teen Mom, Bad Girls Club… Oh Geez. First Teen Mom I feel really bad for Farrah She comes off like a spoiled brat but it has got to be so hard to have parents who made you put a restraining order on your child’s father and then having him die before he could ever meet his daughter. VERY SAD! Also Amber is crazy! Second Bad Girls Club..

Biotches are crazy!

Three.. This week I came across some interesting debates... One was on weddingbuzz a girl asked if it was okay if she had a cash bar at her wedding and people FLIPPED I mean they got into a huge argument over cash bar or open bar... Then over on youtube there was a girl who posted a video about the benefits of breastfeeding(because it is/was national Breastfeeding week) and that also started a big argument over breastfeeding vs formula feeding. In my opinion(KEY WORD) cash bar/open bar should be up to the bride and groom. I don’t think it matters either way because anyone who truly is there to celebrate your love wont care if you have a cash bar, open bar, or no bar at all. And as far as the breastfeeding/formula feeding goes. I PERSONALY(KEY WORD) prefer to breastfeed(since 4 months I have also FF as well) but I DO NOT think that BF or FF means your a better mom. We all have a common goal and that is to be the best moms we can be and as women we should support each other no matter what! ... what is your opinion on these topics?

Two...Getting really nervous for my 16 credits that are all online and start in two ½ weeks. I do however strongly believe that anything I put my mind to I CAN DO! Go MexiCANS!

One…

As always love yall have a blessed weekend

Love always,

I Just have to say that this short little under caffeinated Loud Mouth Latina Is having the MOST AMAZING THURSDAY MORNING! It started out NOT SO GOOD. I was Sleepy as could be! I mean think eyes drooping Running into walls sleepy.. But then as I was sipping my WEAK morning coffee and reading through blogs I came across the most amazing title that INSTANTLY brightened my day… WAIT FOR IT…..SAY IT SLOW… HAKUNA MATATA… SING IT… It means no worries.. for the rest of your days! See now I know you at the very least cracked a smile! Big thank you to Jagged Little Life.

Two… I like Red(Trader Joes) Curry sauce better than Yellow(Traders Joes) Curry sauce... *shrugs shoulders* Im Just saying

One… Oh my growing baby boy! I can not believe he is walking. I really don’t know where the time has gone. I knew time would go fast but I had no idea it would go this fast. He is so much more of a little boy now than a baby boy. He understands everything that is going on around him and has developed quite the personality. I love him so much and just wish I could slow down time a little bit. What a blessing motherhood is! HAKUNA MATATA... Its our Problem-Free Philosphy...Have a Blessed Thursday!

Trader Joe's and Costco Girl

Oh hump day how I love you so! You give me hope that the weekend is in sight! : )

Today is the last day of the month...It is such a bitter sweet thing. I am excited for a new month, hopefully a less rainy month I am over June gloom, but I am so sad in just 9 days my little baby is going to be 9 months old. I can’t believe it. I just don’t understand where the time is going?

On another note I was reading A Beautiful Mess and Mommy of a Monsters Blogs yesterday and they absolutely inspired me to try my own little "Tasty Tuesday" I ended up with a variation of Mommy of a Monsters Curry Chicken! : ) I am a Trader Joe's and Costco girl so that’s where all my ingredients came from!

It was BEYOND amazing and I am looking forward to trying some new foods. Because of my Hispanic background I generally only cook Mexican Food I am ready to branch out and learn some new recipes! : ) What is your familys most cooked meal?

I hope everyone is having a beautiful blessed Hump day and I can not wait for my share my Thursday Five with you tomorrow!

My Thursday Five

"A seed ascends around the turntable." My endorphins are bursting as the sun beams down on my lightly bronzed face. My thoughts are skydiving as they are junked up on caffeine. Oh Thursday how I love you so… You excite me with your almost Friday status! From me to you here is everything and anything that means everything or nothing to me this Thursday!

Five… Although approximately two months away I am getting a little nervous for this semester of school! With the assumption that I would only be working part time I signed up for 16 online credits. And congratulations to me I got a promotion. Now at 45-60 hours a week and an 8 month old these 16 credits are going to be …well they are going to be an adventure to say the least. HOWEVER I know I can do it, because like I mentioned last week I am a firm believer, thanks to my mother, that anything you put your mind to you can do! Oh and I plan on doing it because like my sisters always say… We are mexiCANS not mexiCANTS! : )

Four… I said last week I was not one for recommendations but apparently that is changing. Being the amazing man that he is My LOVE went to Ulta by himself *SHOCKER* and bought me a hair dryer. My first thought when he arrived home was “ahh he does listen” My second was “this dryer is going to suck” lol but again *SHOCKER* The thing freaking rocks! Perfect for a consistently on the go mom like me! Thanks to my rockstar (mmm that reminds me of caffeine) Latin/Italian heritage I have insanely thick hair and not just thick strands or a lot of hair… yup I got both! (feel free to ask Tammie my amazing hairstylist lol) ANYWAY normally my hair takes forever to get dry but this baby gets it done in 5 minutes! SCORE! So this week I highly recommend the Rusk Speed Freak Hair Dryer a little spendy but totally worth it!
**Thanks Babe You’re the Best**

Three…By the end of the season you are going to be sick of me talking about it, but once again thank you TRUE BLOOD for being in existence! Dirty, Raunchy, Captivating, Simply Amazing!

Two… Starting P90x and Insanity Round two. I was doing great with it the first time around seeing results and then I just stopped because of the whole promotion jump to full time hours thing, but now that I am starting to get my groove down with work I am about to beast and go so hard! That’s right I JUST SAID BEAST! 

ONE… First I just have to explain for those of you who were wondering Aries is a Jamexican and that is a Jamaican and Mexican(Jamaican and Mexican.. apparently her really CAN!) which are the two many ethnicities that he is… Look up a jamexican on urban dictionary and give yourself a laugh!
Oh my little big Aries how you are growing so fast. He is starting to try to take steps.. Yes that’s right steps. I can’t believe how fast he is growing. It seems like next week he’s going to be ready to potty train and I am going to be in a rocker on the balcony with a cane to my right and gray hair on my head!

Life is a blessing and this was my week as
