5 months to 3!

Mr 2 years old and 7 months HUH… 3 in just 5 months huh huh! Can time PLEASE SLOW DOWN!



 

When I look up different toddler personalities, little K does not fall into the Shy kid, or EASY child category. He is a good kid and a normal 2 year old that can switch to very sweet and calm to wild and screaming for his way or the high way hahah. I remember hearing moms say toddlers are kookoo people, going from happy, excited to screaming and crying in a matter of a second. Oh yes they are emotional that’s forsure haha.

 



Reading up on little K’s personality I would say that he is a combination and I also do not like to label any child any one way anyway! They are growing learning and developing so a constant change I believe is the best thing to see!

 


Little K is definitely, strong willed and sensitive. He loves to make his own choices and lets you know loud and clear if he does not like what you just did. Ha! His disapproving face is so funny to see. He is this little person with such a strong personality and sense of self. He knows what he wants and YOU will know what he doesn’t want. Ha!

 


We have many good days and of course with a toddler many challenging days, working through tantrums and bargaining and helping our little toddler through his emotions when he’s upset. Which can be really difficult for us parents especially when we too are tired! We are learning too! As I read up on handling tantrums I see, Patience patience!

Little K is loving the summer. He is one active boy! He loves the park and loves being outdoors. He loves car rides with us and loves pointing out and calling out everything he sees to make sure we seen it too. “Mama look! A motorcycle” and if we don’t answer it gets louder “ HELLOOO MAMA! LOOK MOTORCYCLE” Funny kid.

 

Things little K loves at 2.7 years old…

Airplanes and Helicopters are still at the top of the list of favorites! Airplane/Helicopter Toys, movies, videos, ipad apps! Loves them!

Cars, motorcycles and bikes.

Night time story time

Dancing to music

Playing with his cousins and friends

Telling stories of things he did and likes.

New favorite, DINOSOURS!

Favorite foods.. STILL Fruits and Veggies. New fav fruit, cherry tomatoes.

Favorite sport… Soccer!

Little man can count to 15 and say his full ABC’s! He loves to sing songs and loves when I sing him a song before bed.

He loves hugs and kisses and loves being the center of mommy and daddy’s lives :) 

 

Love My BOY!!!!!

Little while since I blogged

It's been a couple weeks since I blogged. The last couple weeks were tough. My dear aunt passed away, just 2 months after her brother, my uncle. Our family is so heartbroken with the loss of 2 very loving, big hearted people. 
It was a tough Mother's Day for my cousins ;(

Mother's Day weekend we spent with our families. 

The littles enjoyed their time together too! 

It's a long weekend coming up. So I'm looking forward to a fun weekend. 

I had so much more to blog about so hopefully I find more time soon :)

Booty bootcamp workout!

I love the bootcamp class I joined. There are about 15 girls in the class. All different shapes and sizes and all there for the same reason. To break a sweat! And feel great about it!

Yesterday was focus on your booty Monday! Let's just say I can barely walk today! 

On the weekend I bought new gear. Sports bra, workout tights, tshirts and runners. I found that my Nike runners were causing me to get shin splits. There's a lot of jumping in that class haha so the new addias I bought have more cushion and feel much better! 


It's April but it's cold and windy here! 
So today I decided it was still ok to wear black tights to work. I think I have till May 1st ha!

What I wore to work:
Skirt:Tristan. Blouse with beads, can't see in picture: Mexx. Tights:Spanx. Blazer: Suzy sheir. Shoes: Guess

What I wore in the pm. 

Jacket: Guess. Jeans: Mavi.
Shoes: MK 

Again, it's still so chilly. So spring jackets are a must, along with a scarf and an umbrella haha.

Even with the chilly weather we still make it to the park. Enjoying how close the park is to us right now before we move! 


Love this sweet boy soo much!

Ouch bootcamp

Yesterday I tried out a bootcamp class in my area. 

The whole day I was battling myself... Should I go, shouldn't I go. Thinking I don't really have the time... But I need to make the time! I'm shy! They might look at me funny because I don't know the moves! Haha excuse after excuse. At lunch I went out to buy workout clothes just to get myself hyped. After work I got home  made dinner, played with little K then got dressed up and ready to go! I didn't look back ha! I walked in, signed up and went in to warm up.

The women were sooo friendly! They welcomed me and warned me haha. The class was going to be one of the hardest ones they do. Oh boy. 

Then it started. 1 hour of non stop body workouts! I was drenched in sweat. I had to slow it down a couple times, my legs were gonna give out eek! 

(Pinterest) 

My emotions were all over the place during the workout. From "omg I can do this, it feels great" to "omg what am I doing, these woman are so fit, I don't belong" when it was over I felt so proud of myself but also felt down about my current body shape. I walked out and cried. Now that's a good workout :). Today I can barely move... I think the bootcamp is awesome! And from my emotions being all over I decided I'm going to sign up and go twice a week! I'm soo ready for this!
