I'm a Working Mama

When Diego was born I absolutely knew that I wanted to stay at home with him and not go back to work. I was so thankful to Isaac for working so hard and making enough money so that I could stay at home with my baby. It would be so hard for me to go back to work and have someone else raise my baby. But with our little family outgrowing our little apartment, I knew that we needed to start saving for a place to buy and living in California is expensive and it hard to save.

But then I found something that was a such a blessing. I started to work from home. At first I was really skeptical about this company because I was afraid it was a scam. I did a lot of research and talked to other people who worked for this company and had success. It seemed ok so I decided to try it out. And it is great. I get to work from home whenever I want, set my own hours, and work how much I want to. It is commission based, so the harder I work, the more I get paid. I just wish I had known about this sooner and I would have done it while I was pregnant.

The more I work, the better and faster I get at it. I supposed that I take longer than other people would because I have a six month old baby who is constantly needing my attention. But I realized if I just get really organized and set goals for myself, it is pretty easy. Before I started this job I felt like I needed to contribute monetarily to my family so that we could progress and not live like college students anymore,and now I can do that and still be at home with my baby. Diego is and always be my first priority, but it gives me such peace of mind that I can help pay off our student loan and start saving for our little family.

It's Been Awhile

So I haven't felt much like blogging lately. Probably cause not much is going on. Well, actually there has been a lot of things happening, but I have always been bad at taking pictures and keeping in touch.

So since I blogged lasted, Diego turned 6 months! Hooray! He is still not sleeping through the night which used to cause me a lot of stress, but then I just decided I needed to relax. While I wish I got more sleep, its ok. He usually goes right back to sleep.

He is getting his first tooth! It is on the bottom and soooooo cute. He will be a little snaggletooth just like his mama was. And it is so amazing to watch him develop. He is such a little boy now and not so much a baby. The other day we were in Wendy's for lunch and he was so curious. Isaac and I didn't have a very peaceful lunch with Diego trying to grab our trays, hamburgers, drinks, fries, keys, hair, etc. He succeeded in grabbing Isaac's water and dumping it all over Isaac. Isaac had to go back to work looking like he wet his pants. HA!

Isaac is still working hard and I am just chilling with my boy. We still love living in San Clemente and are hoping that we can buy a condo here pretty soon. That would be absolutely great because we are quickly outgrowing out little apartment.
