Total Randomness


I have a lot of random thoughts. I am getting more and more tired and sleepy everyday. The weather doesn't help with this tiredness.I feel bad for Darren cause all I want is to be a couch potato. But other than being tired, I feel good. I can still sleep at night.Thank goodness. I can still function everyday and be a wife and a mother. I remember before I got pregnant, I was worried sick because I thought that I was going to be incapacitated. I thought I was going to be sick all the time,and wouldn't be able to function. I realize that the desire to get up, function and live is really all in the mind.And if you have the desire to do it,you will. And that is how it is for me when there are days that I feel so pregnant and lazy. 

Totally random but I love this quote that I got from Pinterest. It just about sums up what I am feeling. I am a momma. Every single day I have a list in my head.Even before I go to bed and I know that my boy is just in the next room, I still think of him.In fact,there are some nights when he is fast asleep that I feel like I miss him. Like, I totally forgot how crazy my day had been,and how much he pushed my button. At the end of everyday, I am a Mother. Same feeling that goes with this unborn child. I am excited to see her.I think of her all the time. I get excited to feel her move. I worry about her.I look forward to the day that my Darren will meet his sister.And I can finally call myself a mother of two.It is an exciting feeling.



Another Random thought.Have you seen the movie "I don't know How she does it?"? Well it is not the best flix but I actually like it. I can relate to the character in some ways. But I am glad,I don't have her job. Even though I must admit,that I like the idea of dressing up and I like to wear some fine stilettos.The stress level of working in such a high,time consuming, competitive environment is a scary and crazy thought for me. I am happy where I belong, in the home. I don't mind scrubbing floors in my part time job where I sometimes need to clean apartments, if most of the time in a day I get to be with my child.I get to witness the milestones.



I guess I finally gave in.For the longest time I told myself that I am never going to sign up on pinterest.Simply because I don't want to get addicted. But my friend kept on telling me to give it a try.And one night when I totally have no idea what to make for dinner.I gave pinterest a try.And I got hooked . I was able to make a yummy dinner out of the stuff that I have in my fridge and my pantry from the recipe that I got on the site. I think it's better than being addicted to facebook.hah. True.

Lately, I have been craving smoothies. And since I don't always have the car, I decided to make my own. I have been doing some fruit smoothies.I bought a bag of tropical frozen fruits and a bag of spinach from Costco. I just mix the fruits,the spinach and I  added milk, and yogurt, blend them together,and voila my very own smoothies. Sometimes when I feel kind of acidic and my heart burn is kicking in I would just mix a swiss chocolate powder with a whole milk,add some ice and spinach put it all in my blender.And there you have it home made milk shake. I would recommend it, it is really good. I could not even taste the spinach.My boys love it, too.

I am freaking out.I am on a single digit countdown with this pregnancy. I am 31 weeks pregnant.9 more weeks to go.Oh my goodness. This is all happening way too fast.And I am not prepared. I feel like I have to start all over again.It has been 2 years, I have forgotten all the things that I need for this baby.Well not all of it, but you know what I mean. I know I need clothes,diaper,wipes and the list goes on.Oh speaking of list,I need to start making one. 

AnywayI guess I better stop now. My monkey is awake from his nap.

Have a good day!

I love pinterest, too. I think I'd rather 'hang-out with it' than with facebook because at least pinterest gives me some cool ideas to do.

You will be a great mother of two. It's really hard to work and take care of a toddler while being pregnant. You're a great mom.
