Wow, it's been along time since I posted.
I'm here and life is good.
It seems like Face book has taken over and thats where I spend most of my time when I'm not working on pictures or scrap booking or taking care of the kids, or painting my home still.
What's been going on in my life you wonder?
Well first off...
I joined a local mommy group, which has made this transition here a lot more easier. I have a great group of ladies that I have coffee with every Monday. Salvador has a new group of friends that he gets to play with at least twice a week. The best part is that the are all boys and seem to get along unless someone is in a funk. I actually have grown up conversations daily! That has done wonders for my mood. I no longer bottle things up and pour them all over hubby when he gets home. We have Girl Night out once a month and our family parties are busting out of our homes because we all have great big families who love to get together. On Halloween I through a party and had over 30 people here. It was great. I am so thankful that I have these Mommies in my life because it has become so much more then a play group.
I'm still hitting the gym. No change in weight to speak of but I go 3 times a week and am satisfied that I can run 4 miles with out stopping, I can burn 500 calories in an hour, I can finish a spin class, I push myself alittle hard each time I lift weights so I know I am strong. Losing weight would be great but something is not right with my body and I hope that soon it will balance out and the weight will come off. But I am happy. I feel great. My insides fell healthy.
I am working on making my business official here. Testing the waters with some free shoots to get clients, trying new things, putting myself out there more. It's slow going but I'm excited about the possibilities.
We are on our last room to paint here in our home. I love this place. Every time I walk through the door I feel a sense of comfort. Each room is filled with us. This past weekend we finished Cruz's room and I almost cried because for the first time he has his own room that expresses who he is. He picked the colors, the bedding the decor and if you walked in you would know it was his room with out us telling you. Thats how each of the boys' rooms are. It's a place where I feel safe. I watch the kids from the office window in the evenings and smile as they play football with the other 10 boys that live here until it's dark out. I love it when I walk out at 6 to call them in and here all of the other mother calling for their kids. It hurts to think it's not forever.
So that's it.
I am just loving living life.
Never before have I been this happy. I still have my moments of feeling lost and like things go by to quick that I cant catch my breath but when I stop myself from going there I realize how blessed I am and I am back to being happy.
