May!

So for most of May Mariah and I were in Idaho. I felt like I really needed to get out of this teeny tiny apartment and be around some family, so that is what we did! Now we are back in Provo and back to school and I am  finally getting some hours in for work. ( I work from home.) June should be a fun, busy month. In a few days my sister A gets into town!!!! We are working out, eating healthy, go swimming & shopping, seeing movies and then in a few weeks we are taking a road trip to AZ!!!! We are so excited! We have also been planning a few other trips for the next few months which include NYC & San Diego! Tickets have been purchased. We cant wait and I love having sisters.... older and younger! I have also decided to redo my apartment. My new moto is "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication" - Leonardo Da Vinci
When I was married it was really hard for Kev and I to decide on ANYTHING. Kevin does it all ladies... He loves to decorate, dance, and everything else :) And I always felt like I had to let it be his way... but no more. Its back to MY way and I do believe I have great style ;) So I am cleaning out my closet - Say goodbye to all those married sweats and tees (never to return again!), pre pregnant clothes, maternity clothes.. and hello to a long overdue NEW wardrobe.

I definitely feel like when you get divorced you go through different phases, like it was dragged out in the beginning, then the back and forth, then the moving out and trying to look forward, then you kind of fall back a little and go through and mourning phase, ya know the mornings where you wake up and the first thing you feel is just a feeling of unfamilurarity - which leaves you in kind of a panic. And you ask yourself that dumb question - "Why me?" ( I dont love it when people say why me... why anyone? ) Anyways I know why me... It's because I can handle it, probably because I need to learn something from it, and because I am blessed enough to see the good in it. ANNDDD then! You get to the point where your so sick of yourself and the lame - o you've been lately... It's like a light bulb totally pops on and you have a burst of energy and zest for life again.

I am sure in future posts I will refer to being married and being divorced - but despite the fact that Kevin and I are done in our marriage - We are still friends, we still see each others family with no hard feelings, and strive to have a happy & healthy relationship for the sake of Mariah and the love that we share for him. It hasn't been extremly long but its been a process and one that I feel like is finally passing through the grieving phase and coming into the time to kick some ass phase. ( As in do everything I always wanted to do before I was married,  buck up and get some things established for Mariah and myself such as religious, financial, educational type stuff.) So I feel like re-doing my whole life right now. So excuse me while I get a bit SUPERWOMAN-ish.

PET PEEVES-

Crappy customer service.. hello you get paid for this so at LEAST .. BE NICE!

Selfish people, A liar, oh and someone who thinks they are right so they argue forev but they are actually sooo wrong.  ( Did I just describe someone? )

Thats it :)

Change of subject-

Okay, I have always been a bit emotional, mostly in private. I can be really sensitive and I usually take things that people say to heart. But when I was pregnant I would cry about the most random things... tv commercials that were supposed to be funny but the sheer fact that the commercial was about a mother/child... I cried. Just random things like that - a friend defending a friend, simple things - totally made me cry! WELL recently I have been like that again... like the movie No Strings Attached... please someone normal watch that and tell me one thing that would make you cry during that movie??? I leave a friend to drive home - I cry. I read other peoples blogs who are married and have young kids - it makes me cry!! I watch Khloe break down and cry on her show and then Lamar comfort her - you guessed it - I bawl like a babe. One of my aunts sent me a nice " thinking about you " message - very simple but to me... I cried not once, or twice, but probably three times because she went out of her way to say "I love you". I loved that. What in the world is wrong with me. A lot of times I find myself crying I also have a feeling of excitement, I have a beautiful babe, I have had so many blessings lately, and I have something to look forward to. 

But really... I thought my pregnancy ended 14 months ago?????

Number tutu!

My favorite recent movie would definitely bee.....

 

I don't know maybe it was the day but I totally cried during this movie! Which is so weird if you have seen I'm sure your like what the heck! But I did.... I teared up a few times. Its not a sad movie though, it's a romantic comedy and while I dont support or condone the whole idea the movie gives off.. it was so cute! I will be buying it. 

xoxo

A super sly guy!

Ohh, mom has money... 

 

 I better make sure she's not looking....

 

Oh good! Shes paying attention to driving.. 

The things ill buy with you! But first I need to hide you.... 

I knew this stupid seat I hate so much was good for something... 

 

Im sooo smart.... and soo rich.

K really, Mariah did this. He took all my money and squished it tightly into the corner of his seat under his bum! Probably because hes always getting into it and Im always taking it away.

Love these two adorables!

xoxo 

P.S. No my son is not motherless and doesnt usually leave the house in his lazy crazy and hair undone.

 I dont know why he is crying because Im probably the coolest mom ever!


1. I buy soda in bulk... meaning if I get a soda from the gas station or Mcd's... I buy two. One with no ice which I put in the fridge and on with ice that I drink first. Its a real problem and starting monday Im quitting soda... AGAIN.


2. I love to read boring things, like world news, religion, politics... even though I dont understand it all the time I just like to read it.


3. Mariah was named Mariah noah the same month I found out I was pregnant ( if it was a boy, we had a boy name picked out but not really a girl name )


4. My life is not how I pictured it, But I'm grateful because I don't think I would have learned the things I am any other way. Stubborn I am.


5.I have a wart on my hand and no one has EVER commented on it until this year and now I feel like everyone says something.


6. I hate folding clothes, hate hate hate. 

7. When I was 17 I bought some baby items for boys and girls from Juicy Couture and planned on saving them until I had a baby. They disappeared?


8.Ummmm - I consider myself relatively smart..... but I can't do math (we're talking division) and I one time exclaimed on a plane ride when the pilot announced we had landed in Denver... "SWWEEET, I've never been to Texas!" But honestly you would never know I was uneducated if you talked to me, I swear.

9. I attend cosmetology school and love it!

10. I am an equal split of red/blue personality.


11. I enjoy the company of people who can talk about reall stuff on a deeper level. 

12. I will travel the world with my hubby. 

13. When I see blonde nerd boys around they usually remind me of my brother Blake and I just have a little love for them in my heart instantly - like the boy in front of me at the checkout in walmart yesterday.


14. I lock my bedroom door when I go to sleep.

15. Writing 15 interesting things about you can be quite the task!
