Tackle It Tuesday... The Dr will see you now

 If the fact that I'm posting at 12:55 a.m. on WEDNESDAY MORNING is any inclination as to my days lately you should know that it has been B.U.S.Y. here at the Baby Maker's Casa.

We are attempting, key word attempting, to get little man on a better nap schedule this week. Which is including starting him on cereal. I have absolutely LOVED watching him learn how to "eat" (if you even call it eating).  It basically consists of me shovelling the same mouthful of cereal into his mouth while he pushes it around with his tongue for a bit and then spits it back out... repeat about 50 times and that is what we refer to as "breakfast"

On top of the normal day to day crazy cleaning, cooking, cleaning, laundry, cleaning, and mothering general stay at home mom stuff, I'm knee deep in medical terminology. Why oh why did this baby maker think that Medical Transcription would be easy. I'm learning the medical term for everything from your head to your toes.... and let me just say... it makes me feel like I should be riding the special bus. The most challenging thing I have conquered in the past years since graduating high school has been teaching my nanny kids the ropes, coloring in the lines, how to not drown while swimming, the proper way to pump your legs while swinging. Never once did I think about my greek and latin forms and various prefix's and suffix's .... but since we've got bills to pay and formula to buy... I'm gonna keep trucking and hopefully trigger some of these brain cells to start working!!!

But today's focus for my tackle it Tuesday, sorry for the previous ramblings just needed to get it out there,  is my general health and well being.

I have been busy for 9 months (cooking little man) and the 4 months (trying not to kill little man) that my own health has really not been a focus.... it's been well over a year since I have seen the mandatory Dr's and it's time to get back in check..... I have a rediculous ammount of Dr appointments to make.... like the dentist which I hate and have not seen in too long to even mention .... a dermatologist, one can never be too careful with the crazy sun these days, plus we have a family history of skin cancer..... endocrinologist, another one I'm dreading because I'm pretty sure there's deeper issues there .... not to mention a general physical and blood work... it's not easy being a responsible adult these days... and if I want any ground to stand on when getting the hubs to do the same... I've gotta get current with all of my own stuff ..... so that is my focus for this day.... errrr Wednesday actually since today is long gone.... get on top of being the best (healthiest) mama to this amazing little boy !!!


Adios Mis Amigos,

tackle it Tuesday

My to do list is beyond the point of crazy . . . but today's focus was the little things...this has not always been the story of my life... but since getting pregnant and definitely now that I have little man... dust grosses me out, dirty floors drive me insane... and if the bathroom is messy... I'm in need of a prozac...  seriously.... gets me crazy.... I have never been known as a clean freak, and honestly, I'm sure it can't last because it takes a serious amount of time and energy to keep the surfaces clean and the floors "pet hair tumbleweed" free... and with a husband that hasnt seemed to grasp the concept of a hamper I am forever picking up, cleaning up, and wiping things down.... but .... its so worth it.. at the end of the day.. with the fresh sent of fabuloso (amazing smelling cleaning product that is the new love of my life) lofting through the house... knowing that we are as "germ free" as we can possible be, because in 30 seconds something is sure to get dirty again.... its a good feeling



crazy is as crazy does I do believe


Adios Mis Amigos,

Tackle it Tuesday

Tuesdays Tackle It day.... ugh... where to start . . . . .seriously, let me think. . . . . .

. . . . . . .


 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Okay so I've made lists like a crazy woman since moving, decided that if my life is going to be in any kind of order, I've gotta start checking it off one by one.

I have gotten so list crazy that I need a list for my lists.... ridiculous!!!!

My own person list is the focus for today.... I have a few things that seriously need attention....

1: was to get my "relax, rejuvinate, recharge, and study/work space" set up because today I start school ! I'm all set to go so that is one thing with a big old check mark next to it...

2. Little man should be napping in his room during the day if there is ever a chance of me being okay with him sleeping in there some night during his life time ... but honestly... I just love having him close to me.... I would probably end up sleeping on the floor in his room if he wasn't in here with us .. so ... that will wait... moving that over to the "get around to it sometime" list

3.  Started the low carb/low suger/ cut the crap out of my life diet today... went to the store, bought lots of stuff...lets see how long this one lasts . .  . I really am committed to loosing weight, and more importantly getting healthy .. . . so... we'll see how that goes

4. Ahh and I also have decided that after little man goes to sleep I am done ... clocking out... no more "work" for me... I shall use that time as "ME TIME" to do whatever the heck I want... but what that doesn't mean is laundry, dishes, bottles, sweeping, mopping, dusting. . . . everyone clocks out and I need to also!!!

So... this is my tackle it Tuesday. .. . anything your tackling today???

Adios Mis Amigos,

Tackle It Tuesday

 Tuesdays are my day to face my to do list and tackle as least one thing that has been bugging me . . .this to do list has changed drastically over the past 24 hours since we have found out that we are moving at the end of April.

So what is on this Baby Maker's To Do list  today. . . GET ORGANIZED. . . redoing my To do list to fit in all of the new items that are needed now that we are packing up and moving out. I've turned into quite the list freak, I like to have stuff laid out in front of me and there is something great about being able to check off the completed items as I finish them. So, what better to do then get that list in front of me.

* Sort each room making keep, sell and trash piles... giving myself 30 minutes for most rooms, helps to speed the process and lessens the chances of me chickening out and keeping too many things that should be sold or trashed. Plus little man almost always sleeps for at least 30 minutes, so I know I can get done at least one room for each nap :o) maybe more if I'm lucky

* Yard sales at least two back to back weekends to sell as much of our stuff as possible

* Whatever doesn't sell at the yard sale is getting donated to Purple Heart,  under no circumstances can it come back into the house!!!


So this is what I'm working on over the course of the next week... we'll see how far I get by next Tuesday.... Wish me Luck!!!
