Yearly Visit

I get to see one of my best friends only once a year. That's what happens when they're going to medical school in the caribbean. I was so happy we got to meet up again and she got to meet Aaron! It's so funny to think that we first met seven years ago and just how much we've changed since then. We had so much fun freshman year and I know I say it over and over again, but I'm so grateful she's a part of my life. 
We got empanandas and Aaron had some of mine and loved it. He immediately loved Joice as well which made me so happy. He's always warmed up immediately to my best friends when he meets him and I feel like that's because they're good people and he can just tell. (It makes me secretly feel a little vindicated when he's grumpy towards people that I also get bad feelings about.) 
He had to play with Joice's phone. 
Then eat her bracelet when he was still hungry after his empanada.
He was totally fine with Joice holding him and was such a good boy while we caught up and talked. 

He wasn't sure about being squished between us though. 
It was a great afternoon of laughs, catching up, discussing all the best new tv shows, and the most delicious ice cream. I'm so thankful for Joice. She's always there to listen to every crazy story I have and we've really reconnected again in the past few months. I've discovered that sending videos is so much easier than texting because I can talk WAY faster than I can type. I love good people and even though it feels like I only have a few friends now, they are definitely high quality.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
