hey there :) Finally, the weather is starting to feel like Spring. It's been a looooooooong winter here in Canada (and say that I missed a whole month of it, when we went to Mexico) Its almost hard to believe cause I feel like I havent seen green in such a long time. I just got a nice book at the library with a bunch of activities for kids & toddlers, arts & crafts, learning about nature and such, for every day of the year, I can`t wait to hop into it with Paola (I wrote that this morning, and now 5 hours later here I am, back online hehe) Girls are sleeping, and Xavier's skiing with his dad (yeah, you read that right, SKIING) lol It's probably going to be their last weekend doing that cause, like i said, temperatures are finally rising and I'm seeing some mud around (good sign), plus I had a run in with a few birds when we went walking this morning (means they're back from down south). We cut a few branches and made some arts & crafts when we got back home, and some man, walking his dog, told me I looked 18 years old and was surprised I had a baby, even more so when he noticed Pao hiding in the stroller basket, and even more so when I told him I had an almost 8 year old son. Cool, i thought. Even though it he was surely exaggerating :P Speaking of which, I have to plan Xavier's birthday party, which will be on the day of his birthday, on Saturday the 19th, it so happens to be Easter weekend, I hope people will be able to come anyways. :) Luis doesn't really talk with his friends anymore cause they promised they were going to come by and see Dia right after she was born, but they didn't and I think that as time passed they probably felt more and more guilty... which resulted in them not coming at all... And Luis not caring anymore. I feel bad though... For Luis... Cause he doesn't have any blood relatives here... and now he doesn't really have any friends. His co-workers are his 'day' buddies, but he doesn't see them outside of work and then he has us, me, xav and the girls. We don't see my family often... So, lets just say we're very much in our own little bubble... I don't mind, cause I like our bubble.. But at least I have a few girl friends in my area, so I don't get bored and I get my 'girl' talk once in a while. There are some days where I don't talk to anyone 'adult' except Luis all day, but I don't mind, I'm really happy where we're at. Except for finances. I've been thinking about that a lot recently... I want things to get better. I feel like we've been walking in circles for the past 5 years, with no savings, with a bit of debt, always tight, no real extra money. I would like this year to be different for that, I want us to pay off the things that need to be paid off and start saving money... I would like us to have our own house... I never thought it would be so hard to get my own house in life, sometimes it feels like an unachievable goal. I feel like as long as I'm going to be a stay at home mom, we won't evolve financially.. I was thinking of even getting a part-time job, or babysitting kids during the week. I don't know, but I want us to be better... ANyways, I'm going to go for now. Here are some recent videos:
This one is a typical day in our life (i really like this one)
& here Dia turns for the 1st time! :))
I hope you enjoyed them, if you did you can Sub to me on youtube, I am like in love with making Videos right now, so many memories :) I'm hoping my kids get to watch them when they grow up, we didn't have that when I was a kid, would've been cool to see my 'day' when I was little with my mom you know. Love you guys! xox
