Mother's Day 2015!

Hello and Happy Mother's Day Everyone!
I hope you all had a great Mother's Day and gave thanks to the strong women that raised you.

Well as for me, this was a pretty chill Mother's Day this year.
Our's started the Saturday before actual Mother's Day. We, my sisters and I, wanted to take our mom out early because we just knew that Sunday's restaurants would be PACKED!
So we took mommy out for some Sushi! I wanted to try something different instead of the traditional Pappadeaux, Olive Garden, Red Lobster and such. I was so happy because my mom was happy. And that's all that mattered. And I'm also proud of myself for turning my mom and little sister into sushi lovers! Instead of them getting the traditional and safe California Roll, I convinced them t try the tempura roll (and incase you want to know, Vegas Roll or anything similar to it is the best!!!).
In all, it was a great night for my mom.



Since you all know now, this was my first Mother's Day as a single mommy. Yes, it kina hurt to look back on my last 2 Mother's Day posts from previous years, especially my first Mother's Day. I was so hopeful that our little family was getting off to a great start. Haha but I'm over it like I said. On Sunday, I stayed home with Gabby, cleaned, did laundry and we stayed in our jammies all day and I loved it. <3

Baby Shower Planning: The Basics

As I revealed to you all this past Thursday, I am expecting a baby girl in December. As with any other big life changing moment, there is a lot of planning going into things. I'm planning a baby budget, planning doctors visits and scheduling them around other things I have to do with work and school, planning when things need to be done by, and most of all planning a much needed baby shower. For every parent I think a baby shower is necessary. Especially for a single parent like me. A baby shower gives some time for family members and friends to get together and celebrate the fact that you have a new addition coming soon. Whether its your first child or fifth child, you choose a baby shower that fits your needs. This is my first baby. So there are many reasons behind my shower. As a single teen mom, I need all the help I can get. My family and my baby daddy's family need to get to know each other, and most of all I want to celebrate this new change I am about to e...

Gabriella is 4 months old!

My big girl is 4 months today!!! I feel like crying. As a matter of fact I did. Lol. I can't believe that I'm already "looking back" at her old pictures and videos from when she was a newborn. Now she is just growing by the minute and I thought I was prepared for these moments but it looks like I'm not. I'm already starting to think of her 1st birthday lol. Can't tell the thoughts and ideas of those yet :P This week is an exciting week. Since Gabriella is now 4 months old, she has to get her second round of immunizations. So this Friday we are going to the doctor. And then Saturday we are getting ready to develop her next milestones... starting rice cereal and crawling. :) We're going to take a trip to Babies R Us and buy her a highchair and some baby jumpers and walkers! I'm strangely excited for this new stage in both of our lives. She's become more aware and used to how her new world works. No more swaddling! Sorry I haven't been...

My Last Month of High School! :(

I can't believe that starting Wednesday, it will be my last month of high school. It feels like not too long ago I was in the 4th grade imagining my high school senior year. Now it has finally come to reality. With a few exceptions and changes to that reality lol. I didn't know that I would be going to an arts school, and I definitely never expected to be a high school mom. But all those unexpected things are what makes my life better than expected :) In this final month, there will be so many activities we will be doing so keep checking back later!
