Baby update and Wisdom

Every challenge a person goes through is beneficial for their development and growth. In that moment of difficulty that person might assume many reasons for what is happening to them. Once that person has owned up to their faults, the emotions have settled, and the pain subsided the real reason is revealed.

Some people can't handle that process and try to distract themselves from the issue and therefore never learn a lesson, or process that experience. This is extremely unhealthy. I guess depending on the severity and the length of that challenge the longer you need to process it.

I see many people who live their lives who believe they don't have any issues but their actions speak louder than words. Alcohol, illegal/perscription drugs, pornography, cigaretes, and food are not solutions. These things only make more problems and after a while you notice your life is out of control and wonder why?!

Don't run away from problems, embrace them, learn to work through them. And watch yourself grow!

Going to the Doctor

About to take the kids to the doctor. It breaks my heart watching Lex cry so much from being sick! Mila is handling it pretty well, what a tough cookie!

Posted my watch me shrink update, lets just say the results are surprising considering how I've been eating this past week!

This morning I've already downed 2 cups of blueberries to detox and now working on my vegan soup! I feel sick also and hope with a raw diet I will clear up soon!

Taking everyone to the Doctor!

Weekend fun!

Here's the outfit I wore out to one of my favorite restaurants! It was a wonderful Birthday Celebration!

It felt so good to get out of the house, get all dressed up, and socialize with adults!

I splurged by eating a perfect center cut steak paired with potato gratin, it was fabulous!! All the hard times we go through seem like a breeze when you pair them with good ones!

Hardest time in my Life!

Another restless night and the list of things to do keeps growing! Getting ready for yet another meeting in 10 minutes and have so much on my mind!

After finding a few minutes to myself to think, I would say this is by far the hardest time in my life!

Dealing with an active toddler, crying(sick) infant, active dog, business, house, self and relationships is not an easy task. Will there be moments where things are not perfect, absolutely! To have people remind me of that is priceless.  All our friends who have multiple kids have warned us that having 2 kids is the hardest! Managing to give everyone attention and trying to set up a business is incredibly hard! It's nice to talk to people who are/have been in the same boat and know that all will be OK! Sometimes I beat myself up for letting things drop or let things get out of control but that's life. Life isn't perfect, everyone makes mistakes, have hardships, and lots of priorities the key is to pick yourself up, learn, and keep moving forward with grace!

Trying to manage relationships during this time is super hard. Seeing the way people react/ treat you and judge you during difficult time is also a huge lesson! No one can truly understand this but its nice to have compassion from people who have been through something similar!

I have huge expectations for things and sometimes when I fail it's hard to acknowledge you're mistakes and disappointments! I am thankful that I have this innate ability to learn from my mistakes and truly turn a negative into a positive!

This week is off a bit because poor Lex is fighting a cold. I am starting to feel sick also. Can't wait for my sister to get here to start helping out! I can't imagine not having any kind of help at all!

Huge thank you for all of you who have called/ messaged me and given me tremendous amount of support and understanding! XOXO

Here's my latest weight loss update!

NEED SOME SLEEP but GYM bound!

Had a really rough night! Baby slept all day yesterday and at night decided to party it up! I think I might have gotten a total of 4 hours of sleep :( I'm not going to complain though because I had a wonderful dinner last night with my husband! That bit of freedom was just what we needed to relax and clear our mind of all the stress and uncertainty!

We have selected our contractor, signed off on tons of paperwork and slowly moving forward with the build out! Definitely feel like a huge load is lifted but there is still much to do!

All this responsibility and obligation is not easy but I feel like I am learning so much about myself as we tackle all these hardships! I love growing as a person. It's not easy but totally worth it!

Heading to the gym now to acquire some energy and work off that amazing French food!

Here's my latest video! Enjoy!

What a MORNING!! I need a BREAK!!

Thank goodness I work from home! Today has been super busy and I can't get a moment to sit down and relax.

I was hoping to squeeze in some time for the gym but everything kind of hit me all at once!

To start, all this new pile of paperwork that needs to be filled out for the office was sitting there waiting to get processed. Then a phone meeting with our architect, landlord, finance guy and then finalizing things with contractor! There some critical decissions that need to be made and I have no brain power to evaluate our options because I'm so sleep deprived! In between I am changing diapers, feeding Lex and trying to relay info to Pavel.

I have my sister helping out but it's still seems like to much to handle. I just want to get out of the house and clear my head, but I doubt that opportunity will come because that pile of paperwork is still waiting for me!


Here's my last weeks weigh in if you're curious to see how I'm doing as far as weight loss is concerned. If time permits I would like to post today's weigh in but we shall see!
