I'm baaaaaaaaaccckkkk ... for real

Ok. So I said I was gonna try and blog every day, this that and the other thing and never followed through. I guess because I have to get on the computer every day to do so and sometimes there just isn't time. Well, I'm going to TRY to make time. Because writing is good and just letting stuff out is good. Sure. 


So let's catch up: We moved into our new apartment June 5th, I'm the bar manager at Spiderman: Turn Off the Dark, my little boy gets bigger, stronger and smarter every single day, I got to spend once a week in the month of June with my beautiful bff Jaime and her little Caleb (my handsome little 'nephew') and my other gorgeous mama Melissa and her beautiful princess Layla (who I am so looking forward to babysitting in the fall), I'm doing my first cabaret in NY with one of my best friends, and I have made some new friends that are just the best thing since sliced bread. 


Lucky. That's the word I would use to describe the way I feel right now.

My little boy is the man

Hubby has been gone for 8 days now. It isn't AS bad as we thought it would be but jeez do we miss him here at home. I'm grateful for the one-on-one time I'm getting to spend with Nicholas. He is doing so many new things and his vocabulary grows every single day it's amazing. We are having a really great time together and I just wish it could always be like this. Stupid needing money to live! hahaa

He was speaking like a little man to my grandmother today and even speaking a little spanish! He's tall enough to need 3T pjs and pants. It's amazing. To think, in December he will be 3 years old already. It seems like just yesterday we found out about him hiding in there. I've been looking back at pictures of him when he was born, his first Christmas, his first birthday, etc. It's amazing to see the growth and change and maturity in this little guy. Now he is already a big cousin to Alexandria (my niece) and soon to be big 'cousin' to some of my closest friends' babies. I can't wait to see what he will teach them. I'm really looking forward to watching him grow and learn and be an example for other children.

I love my little boy :)

Back!

After about a million years away from this blog, I'm going to try my best to start up again for the maybe 2 people who read this.

Hubby is away for 3 weeks playing a show in Florida so I'm on full-time mommy duty and almost (but not quite) full time work duty. Not working AS much since I need to be home with the little guy. Time with him is just amazing.

He is so smart and so kind and just so lovely to be around. Unfortunately, though, he is a little ball of sass and I think that's a little bit of terrible two-ness creeping in. When he wants something he makes a mad face and says "GIMEE THAT" ... not fun. But we've had time out a few times so hopefully the habit gets kicked quickly.

Lots of other emotional things going on, good and bad. One of my best friends is due with her little man Caleb in April and I don't think I've been so excited about something in a very long time. I can't wait to shower him with love and introduce him to his hopefully future best bud/cousin Nicholas. It's really wonderful for me to watch two people so deserving of joy get such a wonderful gift in their lives.

I've been thinking, I think, a little too much lately on the past. I've been terribly missing someone who hasn't been in my life for 2 years now. Someone who I just can't seem to let go of and forget. Odd huh? Also, trying to balance a tumultuous friendship that is filled with so much love and care that doesn't necessarily always come to the surface. Difficult, I know.

Here's to blogging every day if I can and waiting for the wonderful things that should be taking place in the next few months.

"where do we belong?"
